Episode Australian Survivor (2016) - Episode 5 Discussion

[Tuttle]

Well Vavau finally came last!

Hope that flint was worth it. Try not to break this one.

Perhaps a betting pool on how long it takes them?

 

[Mr Stickyfingers]

...um... what went wrong?... Red team didn't lose?... I'll have to watch the replay... I just don't believe that they didn't lose yet again... wow!... cheers.

my stream is crapping out in sympathy

Is it usual for Survivor to have challenges every episode? Like do we ever get an episode when we just get to see all the camp drama?

 

[Deleted member 39902]

Glad someone else feels the same.

I'm beginning to really lose track of what the heck is going on at the camps. Not sure I was even able to work it out in the first place.

Yeah, I'm finding the continuity of storylines and plotting in each of the groups is skimpy.

 

[Mr Stickyfingers]

...so Kat doesn't go tonight?... **sigh**... cheers.

Yes, both a reward challenge plus an immunity challenge, or a single combined one

Yes and no. Respectively[DOUBLEPOST=1472551806][/DOUBLEPOST]

It was a reward one, not immunity

and yet people are whinging that the eps are too long. You can't have it both ways.

...is it usual for the host to always be giving a running commentary during the tasks?... it was starting to give me the irrits to be honest... cheers.

If only! I wish there was more balance.

Yep. It's standard. I don't really hear it anymore.LOL

Yes that's the way it's done

...oh yeah!... **pay attention Sticky... pay attention**... lol!... cheers.

 

[Tuttle]

Is he going for Chester to be the next "jeff"?

 

[timmy]

Oh FFS Matt, Chester is a HEN

Pacing seems so different when shown consecutively over three nights.
A week between eps not only builds suspense but gives a chance to mull over the events.
With tribals going off every day it kinda ruins the whole developing plotlines cos its all presented bang bang bang.
I think spacing the episodes is pretty crucial for a heavy strategy based show like Survivor.

It's a bit like how Big Brother on Nine used to have such lonngggg Daily Show episodes, yet we actually got more substance and content from the original half hour episodes. Go figure.

 

[Mr Stickyfingers]

Yes that's the way it's done

...oh okay... thanks for that... cheers.

 

[Tuttle]

...oh okay... thanks for that... cheers.

If there's a second season, you'll be a pro!
