Survivor: One World – Thanks For The Souvenir [Recap and Review]
I’m not spoiling anything by saying there’s an injury tonight – after all, CBS has been promoting the episode with that information all week. It’s a shame how much of the show’s big moments are spoiled in advance by the network’s own marketing team and this is another example of that. At the same time, it’s been nice to see that commercial aired as I watched other shows this week...
Survivor: One World – A Bunch of Idiots [Recap and Review]
I was ready to write some sort of interesting introduction for this week’s episode, and then I got caught up in the recap of last week’s show. I still don’t understand what’s going on this season. You have a guy who has pretty well alienated both tribes, isolating himself from the men and the women, and he’s somehow running the show. Explain that? It’s not even like Colton is leveraging...
Survivor: One World – Bum-Puzzled [Recap and Review]
Last week the women finally found some form of victory, winning both a reward and an immunity challenge. We also got rid of that jerk Matt, which I’m still giddy over. Meanwhile, advertising has promoted this week’s episode as having a game changing movie – specifically, a move that will change the game forever. I find that hard to believe, but we’ll see as the episode unfolds.
We begin...
Survivor: One World – One World is Out the Window [Recap and Review]
The opening recap of the season shouldn’t have taken as long as it did. The summary is simple: the women have been sucking and the men haven’t. The men’s tribe has been full of machinations, none of which are all that important since the men aren’t losing. There’s the season so far. Of course, it’s only been a couple of episodes, which means everything can change pretty quickly.
Of course,...
Survivor: One World – Total Dysfunction [Recap and Review]
So far Survivor: One World has been relatively boring this season. I know, I know, there’s only been one episode, but really, who stood out from that episode? Colton, who mostly stands out because he’s darn pathetic. Nobody else is interesting and we didn’t even see anyone voted out last week, as an injury took that out of the tribe’s hands. As a result, One World is off to an incredibly...
Survivor: One World – Two Tribes, One Camp, No Rules [Recap and Review]
Welcome back for a new season of Survivor. This season, the 24th for the series, finds a few new elements to bring into play, as well as some old ones. For instance, this is the first new season in a couple that sees no returning players. No Boston Rob. No Coach. No veterans whatsoever. Secondly, there is no form of Redemption Island this season, which means players who get voted out are out for good....
Survivor: South Pacific – Season Finale [Recap and Review]
Well, here we are. Fifteen episodes and a number of survivors later, we’re at the end of South Pacific. It’s been fun, albeit predictable with most contestants playing their strategies safe and sticking to their word. Only two major plays occurred (John Cochran turning on his tribemates and Brandon handing away immunity only to be voted out), but between Cochran’s fish-out-of-waterness and Brandon’s...
Survivor: South Pacific – Then There Were Five [Recap and Review]
It’s the last week for Survivor: South Pacific, with a regular episode tonight and the series finale on this weekend (Sunday). It’s been a decent season – maybe not the most interesting at times but also not the most boring. If anything, it’s been rather predictable, with few players making major moves to alter the game. As Probst pointed out last week, the players have said for a while...
Survivor: South Pacific – Ticking Time Bomb [Recap and Review]
Welcome back to another week of the John Cochran pity party, with our special guest this week, John Cochran! Yes, this week’s episode doesn’t wait long before diving into the traditional Cochran quips of the past few weeks: being voted off is insulting, the other tribe members he teamed with just thanked him as lip service, etc. Dude, you got exactly what you signed on for. Now you have to face...
Survivor: South Pacific – Cult Like [Recap and Review]
In case you didn’t notice, I didn’t recap last week’s episode. You see, it was Thanksgiving week so I was doing stuff with my family. Also, it was the seasonal “clip show,” which recaps what’s happened so far this season while showing new footage we didn’t get to see. So, if you wanted to see if there actually was a collaboration going on between Ozzy and Coach, the veteran players, the...
