Re: Survivor 47

They done ****ed up not getting Kyle off when they had the chance! 3 straight immunities and then was in the final 2 for this last one. I hope he wins out and they never have a chance to vote him off but that never happens.

I think a lot of people have some claim to the title right now. Only one that I think is out of it is Teeny and I think she’ll get taken to the final if she doesn’t screw herself.

My final 3 is Genevieve, Caroline and Sue. They had a shot of those 3 on the beach at one point and it just made sense to me. Genevieve is my odds on fav. I feel like she’s playing hard as hell without being overly obvious about it. She reminds me of Kim.

He got off to a rocky start but Andy has a major claim to the title if he gets to the final. He’s been such a main character of the show while his original tribemates thought he was cannon fodder. After the Sam/Sierra split, I don’t think they (just Rachel and Sam now I believe) think that anymore.

Sol wasn’t a bad pick last night, just wouldn’t have been the one I would’ve gone for.

Kyle is a mix between Ian and JT. He just feels too likable to not win if he gets to the finals.

Kyle would've been the smart choice to get rid of, but Sue should've been the 2nd choice. How do you leave that tribe with strong numbers for another week?

Teeny feels like an possible f3 person who gets 0 votes. Although I felt that way about Sue too.

Based on Sierras reaction to her, Caroline perhaps could be viewed as the evil strategist (but I don't see her owning that if she makes f3).

Gabe and Sam I don't see getting votes in the end either, they haven't stood out as playing a huge game despite people saying they're threats. Although, Gabe is the only person who has voted correctly at every single tribal (Caroline has also voted correctly, but she lost her vote this week so I don't count that as a perfect voting history anymore). On the flipside of that, Sol I believe has the worst voting history (of all jury members)? Other than the Kishan vote, everyone he voted out (minus Sierra, but that was the revote where he initially voted Sam) didn't leave.

Andy could be a dark horse if he makes it to the end, being the 1 person who can say they literally had their lowest moment of the season play out infront of every single person on the jury.

Genevieve is another obvious name who should be a contender to win.

Rachel so far wouldn't win either, but I think the moment people find out she has/had an idol AND could've played it but used the SITD to gauge reactions would be a very big move.

Re: Survivor 47

Yeah players like Rachel don’t have anything major on their resume right now, but her surviving the one tribal and then this strategic use of the SITD is a foundation she can build on. If she masterminds a blindside, gets an immunity or two, all the sudden she’s a front runner as others with more impressive resumes are voted out.

You don’t have to be the best of all players, just have to be the best of those who remain at the end.

It’s eye opening and shows how much we really don’t know the real vibe of the tribe when people are going hard after players the viewers don’t see as a major threat. People hold grudges like crazy too, lol.

Caroline I think can be read like a book once people start paying attention to her more. She just looks calculating, kind of like Emily from S45 but without her opening her mouth to put the target on herself, ha.

Re: Survivor 47

Interesting move by Survivor/CBS.

The season finale will be a 2 part episode divided between 2 weeks.

December 11th and 18th will be 2 hour episodes each.

I imagine the 18th is gonna start the morning of the final day, with the f3 now set. So you spend the next hour of the finale focusing on the final tribal and voting for a winner, then the remainder is for the post show finale.

First time in Survivor history we'll ever get a non 1 night 3 hour finale. Also sucks we won't get the live reunion show returning. I like seeing people's reaction to live reveals immediately after the game, but I like the "time to reflect/watch back the show" answers and discussion we got from the old format. If there was a way to combine both it would've been nice.

Re: Survivor 47

I don't really care for the reunion stuff, but if you're gonna take that away and somehow make the finale longer, that's interesting

Re: Survivor 47

Kyle at 4 immunities is crazy.

Only 6 players in history have won 5 immunities. He's almost on the level of a Colby, Ozzy, Terry. If Kyle somehow makes the finale, he's definitely gonna be at 5, maybe 6 immunities.

They're not taking it away, they're just turning the 1 night finale into a 2 week finale. So technically it's 1 hour more of the finale, but it's 2 two hour parts instead of a single 3 hour finale.

Re: Survivor 47

Sol coming in to that tribal all jacked up in a vest while everyone just stares at him/forgets Sierra is right next to him (did she cut her hair?)

Jeff/producers probably hate this season just because of how much everyone (players) have hated the advantages. People opting for the single tribal immunity rather than risking further, that shared amulet being played asap so nobody's burdened by it, everyone giving up their SITD for rice. It's nice that the players want to play it a more "bare boned" Survivor, but also not realizing there's an idol out there, ironically from the only person there who played their shot in the dark.

Everyone's smart for going after Gabe, if they let Tuku have 4 at the final 8, they've all lost. At the same time, Sue voted for Genevieve while Kyle voted out Gabe. Another vote out where I think Caroline is making it to the end and will get dragged by the jury.

In a way I could see the F3 being Andy, Teeny, Caroline which sounds real underwhelming for how good a season this has been so far.

Re: Survivor 47

Now Kyle's gone!

Probably the most humble exit in Survivor history though. If he made it to the end I don't see how he doesn't win, he's too likable.

The way they showed it, I feel like the f3 could be Andy, Caroline, Teeny.

Also, they made Sol put a shirt on?
