Survivor 50 (Spoilers!)

‭In Survivor, they vote people out based on how likable a person is or how likely they are to get jury votes. But what does that say about those that remain? Are they less worthy or less likable? I like tight duos who want to see the other one win if they can’t. I couldn’t stand Christian this season. Mike and Angelina were supposed to be his alliance and his friends but he turned on them. He even admitted Mike was right about Emily but f*ck him anyway I guess. I hoped he wouldn’t turn on Rick next, but apparently they’re the “new age bromance.” Coach devolving back into the haiku-spewing Dragon Slayer was disappointing. The post-merge has been chaotic with so many people. It’s like Ozzy took Rizo out for ice cream and when they came back three people had been voted out and people were fighting. It’s like that Community meme. Coach and Chrissy deserved to go down together. She was basically his keeper. I miss the Coach from Ponderosa who played Rock Band. I didn’t really remember Chrissy. I can’t believe Ozzy didn’t play his idol again. He's one of the people on this season who made the same mistake twice.

‭It’s weird playing seasons back-to-back without anyone having seen them first. Russell Hantz made it to the end and lost both times, and Rizo lost at fire-making both times. “If I had a nickel for every time that happened, I’d have two nickels” and all that. I thought Jonathan was getting the main character edit, but the winner was Aubry. I suppose she’s earned it after all this time. I was rooting for Cirie if it was going to be anyone who’s played multiple times, but at least the fans voted to give her the Sia award. I was rooting for Tiff too out of the newer players who were left. Charlie and Kamilla are going to be on the next season of White Lotus, but like I thought, everyone is welcome.

‭The Late Show is over after tonight, so I would like to boycott CBS. However, season 51 is called “The Open Era” and it looks like it begins with a marooning like the original seasons. I’ll keep watching Survivor, but f*ck the network and its parent company.
