Well, we made it to another Survivor finale. Australian Survivor finished earlier this week, and now Survivor South Africa closes the book on their return. Different as these two seasons may be, it’s been nothing short of fantastic having this amazing show back in our lives. How did Immunity Island finish up? Does challenge beast […]

Chappies Kitchen is still operating in full force. After his foraging was fully brought out into the open at Tribal, he decides there’s no reason to stop now. If he can keep giving himself small advantage after small advantage, he’s going to do that. And hey, it’s been working so far. Why stop now? The […]

Anela has damage control to do back at camp. To his credit, he’s saying the right things, but the damage is probably done. Kiran tells us in a confessional that their League of Shadows alliance is all but over, if not completely destroyed. But whether or not Anela’s actions make him a more desired target […]

Back at camp, Anela is confused why Chappies gave him safety at Tribal Council. He clearly doesn’t see the bigger picture. Upon returning from Tribal, Chappies and Tyson have it out about their respective levels of disrespect. There’s obviously no love lost between the two. Tyson’s main objective now is to get rid of Chappies. […]

Chappies and Santoni discuss their chances in the game. Santoni has her idol and Chappies the Tribal Council Pass that Anesu gave to him after being voted out. Using these can guarantee their spots in the Final 6. And with Chappies’ challenge abilities, if he wins the next Immunity Challenge, Santoni can use the Pass […]

We start off this week with Tyson proclaiming his place atop the mountain, with Anesu unknowingly on the bottom, as nobody trusts her. Then a great production move. It immediately switches to a confessional from Anesu telling us her plan to vote off Tyson. These kinds of edits are the best. It’s nothing fancy, but […]

Anesu is making plans to blindside the Kiran, Tyson, Wardah trio. Amy, Nicole, and Chappies are initially on board. But part of the plan hinges on the right person winning immunity so they can control who goes to Immunity Island. And so far, even though it’s only been two challenges, Kiran is proving a huge […]

One quick note before getting into the recap. On a bit of a time crunch this week, so this will be shorter than most recaps. Only going to hit the main points, and not much else, unfortunately. Should be back to the usual next week. Reward Challenge Divided into two teams of five, four of […]

Ah, the Survivor merge episode. I’m sure I’ve noted this in other season recaps, but the merge episode is always highly anticipated, for several reasons. It signals a change in the game, shifting the focus to individual versus tribes. It’s a chance at new life for those on the outs, and a chance for big […]

Zamba Qieän! She actually gets a confessional, saying she doesn’t feel like she has a place in the game. Which unfortunately feels way too accurate, as she hasn’t had a place in the edit. And then, that’s it? It immediately cuts to a completely different, unrelated conversation at camp. It was an odd edit choice, […]
