re: Survivor season 36 Ghost Island

Yeah, that would have been really ballsy. But I didn’t think he would do the fire challenge. I thought Angela would have put up a better fight. Wendall made it look easy.

Indeed. It couldn’t have worked out any better for him. I also thought Domenick was slightly more deserving, but Wendall was really good too.

That was one of the most deserving final 3 that I can remember in survivor. I wouldn't had a problem with anyone of the 3 winning.

The show is changing in several ways. Notice they never mention food anymore?
They never show runningnout of, rationing or cooking rice. They don’t fish. Not one scene.

one of the things I love about the older seasons is that they were actually starving and surviving. Ozzy, like him or not, was a true “Survivor” in that he went out and fished and brought food to the table.
One of my favorite things about watching the show when I was a little kid was showing the castaways with diving for food with the spear. If I’m not mistaken Hatch caught a shark one year?

That actual survival stuff, yeah, that’s one of the cooler aspects this show has sort of gotten away from in recent years.

Other points from the finale/reunion. Pretty sure Kevin Hart was fricked up again and was watching from the green room and actually thought Probst brought the voting urn straight from tribal council backstage. Second, Probst stopped and made a point that he would be making an apology to Erik and James so I was wondering what he was apologizing for...then he never apologized for anything.

Wish they had touched on Wendell’s burn when Chris left. And was there no favorite player this season?

I hated the Kevin Hart plug at the end. Save that shite for some other time. I was surprised Jeff read the votes at tribal council. Would that have still taken place that way if there was no tie?

Sebastian was definitely still mad. It seems like the longer you are on the jury, the more forgiving you are. Dom’s 5 votes were the first 5 people who got put on the jury. The tribal council when Sea Bass got voted out was typical of the season - Dom and Wendell were both in on the plan but Wendell sat back and let Dom be the vocal one.

I was surprised that Kellyn’s voted for Wendell. She asked a jury question about who brought the jury members into the alliance and Dom was the winner of that poll.

Dom could have poisoned Laurel’s relationship with Wendell when Wendell didn’t invite her to the steak dinner but he didn’t. I was surprised at how easy it seemed for Laurel to cast that final vote. Either way, Wendell seems like a really nice guy who deserves the win more than some previous winners.

I think Dom was more deserving and the jury was simply bitter.

If this was the old format, Wendell would have went to jury and Dom would have won
