Survivor season 49

[Kasey]

No thoughts on this one yet? Or have people finally given up on the show? I finally watched the premiere online since I don't have TV at the moment. Still is hard for me to get a feel for people on episode one, when there's so many of them. But it looks like there will be some strategists and villains in this one. Good for Rizo knowing his weakness at the puzzle and cheating when he could! All's fair in love, war and Survivor!

I'm going to watch! I still love Survivor.
Our evenings are so busy that I have to let the episodes build up on my PVR. I'll end up bingeing them on a weekend at some point!!!

I thought it was a good first episode. I may watch it again, though, because my dog was being a total jerk that night and I'm sure I missed things.

I have Season 5 on while I'm working at home today. My, how the game has changed.

I rewatched several of the older seasons over the past year or so. It has changed SO MUCH. I still love old school Survivor the most.

I'm in, but will probably watch most episodes on Thursday or Friday.

The first episode looked promising.

Me too!

I'm watching. I missed part of the first episode because a storm was interfering with my connection.

I LOLed at the generation gap bit between Nate and all the Zs on his tribe. But IME, most Zs love parent figures who don't boss them around or try to act "cool," so I think Nate is probably going to be okay there.

The shoe bandit thing has to be the stupidest thing I have ever seen. If Jake wants to go down as the shoe bandit in Survivor lore, I guess he can, but absolutely no one will ever reference it unless it's as a stupid thing someone did one season, so
.

Jeremiah has the most amazing evil-villain-in-a-cartoon cackle I have ever heard--and I don't mean amazing in Z way, but amazing in a "wow, that's really . . . something" way. It does make him stand out; he's the first one I identified.

My goodness, Jason is good at puzzles. He must not be good at socializing, as he hasn't been shown interacting with anyone and he wasn't even mentioned in the alliance of four discussion.

Survivor sure does love Savannah as the storyteller for Uli. She's good at it (of course), but I am not growing fonder. Shannon would make me crazy with all the woo.

I like Nate and Rizo so far. Still sorting most of them out. I like Alex ok, but not attached to Jake, who I think is an idiot.

Way too many people for me to keep them all straight, but I love it when people who sit there in interviews talking about how they are controlling the game are the ones who get booted and how everyone talks about that person and how it was a no brainer they are gone first.

The dude with the crazy evil laugh though ....

 

[smurfy]

Im watching and enjoying it so far.
Definitely a lot of interesting people - hard to keep them all straight
glad Annie got booted - was so cocky.
ITA - shoe bandit is dumb. That guy seems promising - but has some weaknesses.

Sophie is going to get dumped. Bros are going to choose each other, especially over a chick they aren't sleeping with. He isn't even going to witness the birth of his own child.

The prevailing theme of every Survivor ever is that people are furiously offended that the person they were scheming against is scheming against them.
