Survivor 50 (US)

According to colbys exit press on top of the injury he had sustained he also got a staff infection in his foot from walking around barefoot after he had hurt it. The doctors wanted to pull him before tribal but he was pretty sure he was going anyway so he wanted to go through vote out than medical. He really had not tried that hard to scramble cos he would have rather coach stayed in than them both go.
 
Ugh, if only they'd voted out Coach. I suppose it'll happen soon enough though.
Stupid move to not keep Double Dee around as a shield a bit longer...
 
Yeah they all turned on Dee, this is where I think being friends with players isnt good for personal game. They're all telling each other everything. The idols are useless. Jonathon, the one that seems least capable of deception, was the one able to manipulate reactions almost immediately after tribal.

Still feels a bit like the Christian and Ricks show, but its watchable enough. Happy for Ozzy to get an immunity win, he's the sort that needs that kind of ego boost. I actually like Riz, Cirie and Ozzy playing together, fun bunch. That team up will get them deeper into the game. Its harder to decipher alliances between the rest, they'd all turn on each other at this stage.

Stefanie getting her screen time in is what the audience wants to see, but a bit of a boring one to watch. Maybe it was filmed that way to be as torturous to the audience as it was for Stefanie. Similarly, Coach scenes.
 
50 is shit in comparison to AU. It's a bore after coming off such a great aussie season. The fake eyelashes and perfect eyebrows are a bit much.
I want to like it...but the Australian series is just so much better as a game.
The challenge was a good one though, I picked a team and cheered for them and they won. Im not a Tiff fan but it would have been too easy for her to go next so I was glad she was safe. Joe looked like he had been oiled up for the immunity crowning.

Then it was pretty obvious who was next on the chopping block, he got all of his content out. Glad that two had to go tonight, chrissy has been a nothing player all season and it gets the numbers down quick. Devens fake idol was just a meh moment. Im sick of Christian and devens, ready for them both to bugger off now.

I hope Cirie wins the season cos shes the one whos worked the most hours on the show!

What are you talking about? It was a great moment. It literally saved his ass and caused everyone to change the target, creating an exciting live tribal.

Blind freddy could see Coach was next. He had an entire montage and even final words. A lot of the whispering at tribal was about if it was fake idol or not. Most of the whispering was saying stick to the plan. This cast should know Devens is known for fake idols. Especially when he wouldn't show it when Stefanie asked.

I wanted Devens and Aubry to go, but once Cirie came back with her vote, it was clear they were going to follow her direction. I was hopeful until that point. When Cirie said target Coach, it was all over for him and Chrissy. Chrissy cemented her fate when she told Cirie that Riz was on her radar. Joe put up a good fight for Coach but he was only one number, the rest were decided before they even got to tribal. Cirie, Ozzy, Rizz, Emily, Aubry, Devens, Christian and Tiff were all voting for Coach even before tribal, Joe had to stick with his alliance, the only other vote that the idol might have flipped, is Stefanies. Coach, Chrissy, Jonathon, simply did not have the numbers unless the other side split votes. Coach lost his vote for the shot in the dark, Chrissy burned hers on Riz and Emily. The fake out was not required. Meh.

It is befitting for Coach to go out in what is likely his last time in a tribal with some fanfare - some fake pomp and circumstance, and the ability to quote Magellen one last time, rather than just a whimper. I am pleased Devens did it, even if he didn't need to.

Chrissy I struggled to remember from her first season, and it was a season that was awful so I didn't want to rewatch it - I think I tried to rewatch the episode they played on us tv before airing season 50, but if I did I don't even remember that and it would have been literally the week before the season started. She was not a choice I would have made to bring back for season 50, and her edit shows that they had stronger stories to tell of the people that they did bring back.

It could have been a toss up between these two teams - I think for the games of the people I want at the end the right people went home. I don't want the final 3 consisting of Joe and Johnathon. Actually my worst final 3 would be Rizo, Joe and Johnathon.

I will be happy if 1 or more are in the final 3 and hopefully wins: Ozzy, Cirie, Christian, Emily, (I would have Genevieve and Colby there too if it wasn't for the stupid bloodmoon)

Coach I thought might be the winner pre-season :(
 
It's looking like it will be Ciries alliance (Rizz, ozzy) vs Christians alliance (Devens, Aubry) from here on in. That's why I was so disappointed they didnt take out Devens and Aubry out and obliterate Christians alliance. Its seems a bit too predictable and I hope I am wrong - more fun if I am! Aubry can be a bit of a pushover and its hard to understand why she blew that idol if she had those two on her side. We'll see what Devens does with this fake going forward...

Jonathan and Joe do not like Rick Devens, so they might have something up their sleeve. Jonathan is actually playing way better than expected. So he might surprise us - I assume he's still going to be a big target once the singular immunities really kick in. Neither of them are smart enough players to take out the pre 40 players, so I will be surprised if either of them does get anywhere near the final. Maybe more of these tribal twists will mix it up.

Tiff and Emily are smart enough to play in majorities. Stef might be a challenge beast but shes a bit of a floater.

I'd really love to see Cirie win after so many times playing. If shes at the end with Christian, its going to be a harder sell. It could go either way with those two.
 
All I can say is thank fuck coach is out. I didn’t enjoy him on Tocantins, couldn’t stand him in Heroes vs Villains, loathed him on South Pacific and I really didn’t need to see him on 50 either.

Cirie is so mother 💕
