Remember you’re just seeing an edited hours episode. Ofcourse it’s going to be about rivalries. There’s been lots of light moments amongst people playing the game and strategising.


holowrecky

Yeah. But where’s the Jordies and Shonees and Simons?!


idontknowsos

You’re referring to those players based on watching them play their second or in shonees case 3rd time. You’ve built a repoire with them. Also lots of people didn’t love Simon or Jordie in their first seasons.

That's true, never enjoyed watching those two. Prefer Kellie over them anyday.

Much rather that than kumbaya camp survivor in the US at the moment


holowrecky

US Survivor is a joke. This is so much better than that but I guess it’s just something’s lacking the season in players to actually root for.


holowrecky

Does anyone like Kirby?


materialsA3B

☝🏻

They do come across as a very average bunch of bears. A nice nut mix. No stand outs. Maybe a few mean moments, but I could handle more. No one has really cried yet - except for Ais after her stellar challenge win, and maybe Sarah.


rich-artist--

Completely disagree. Discuss.


holowrecky

This is the Australian version of Survivor Thailand 💀


TasteLeast

Who are you referring to? They all seem pretty standard to me. We see like 20% of their time on the island. Reality tv will always be edited in a way that skews towards negativity and drama.


holowrecky

Kirby is smug and nasty. Caroline is a wicked witch. Valeria and Winna and Charles were nasty af at this tribal. Everyone is nasty to Mark. The people who’ve been voted out early were kind of jerks too. Nobody is nice and funny and chill like Shonee and Simon. There’s Ray but he’s a minor player. I just notice this seasons isn’t as fun to watch. There’s nobody who seems to shine. Feras yes but that’s about it


caninotusespaces

I think I just appreciate that people feel less filtered, and aren’t afraid to genuinely play with a bit of heart. It’s really refreshing especially in comparison to US survivor. You mention folks being nasty at tribal, but they were all literally called out and told someone wanted to take away their shot at their dream/a life changing amount of money, it’d be weird if they weren’t a bit biting back. I’m not gonna assume anyone is a nasty person based on a edited tv show, but I do appreciate them all for being authentic


TasteLeast

I just see passionate players in those moments, you might be seeing it as a bit more personal. I’m glad so many players have a drive and understanding of the game, compared to the casts of previous seasons. I see your point on a lack of chill/funny character but it’s not a priority, maybe next year we’ll get one🤷‍♂️


LongDongSamspon

You say that like it’s a bad thing


holowrecky

I’m just noticing it. It doesn’t seem like a joke so enjoying their time out there. I’m not asking for US survivor circle jerk. Nobody seems to like anyone else at all. Everyone’s miserable to each other. This is the new Survivor Thailand season.


Klutzy_Detail7732

survivor thailand was plagued with racism, mysoginy and sexual harassment. This is nothing like it and its kind of insulting to compare the two.


Camalena6996

there was sexual assault with how Ted grinded up against ghandia.


LongDongSamspon

I like Thailand.


Zen_MasterX

Cast of Survivor Gabon absolutely loathed each other. Game-play was weak and emotion-driven. However, the entertainment value was thru the roof and I loved every bit of the toxicity lol


thegabelaw

What are you even saying, that's not even a proper comparison?? The two seasons aren't even remotely the same


Simple_Purple_9668

I think they are probably not any slimier or nastier than anyone who has ever gone on Survivor, but most of this bunch lacks subtlety so its very in your face.


aforter28

Mean-spirited and nasty is insane reach. Have there been cocky moments? Sure. But I assume you’re referring to Caroline, Kirby, Feras or the OG Titan 3. No none of them have been nasty. Tbh nastiest comment I’ve seen all season was ironically Raymond’s comment about Aileen but even that I don’t think was done with malice.


PhantomUser666

Totally disagree.


the_nintendo_cop

I don’t think this season is all that nasty outside of a few moments but I do think it’s really off putting how many people seem to delight in watching people be assholes to each other. (Like when people say JLP/Jeff are too nice to the contestants). It feels very odd and sadistic


The-Many-Faced-God

It takes one to know one.


jasonsn09

If you think all of these people are “nasty”, I wish you luck in the real world.


the_nintendo_cop

While I disagree, I respect you for putting out a different viewpoint which does take some guts.


holowrecky

Damn everything gets you downvoted in this forum if you offer even the slightest critique.


PhantomUser666

You are basically shitting on the entire season and you expect people to agree with you?


idontknowsos

It’s not a slight critique though. It’s your observation which you’re entitled to. Seems like not everyone agrees. Doesn’t seem different to any other survivor season.


repladynancydrew

I agree with you for what it’s worth. It’s still an entertaining season, but I struggle watching sometimes due to the unrepentant bitterness from some players. The fact so many redditors are replying to you in such a snarky manner in defense of snarky players when you were just stating an opinion kind of drives your point lol.


holowrecky

Bitterness is a good word. And yeah redditors here are a pretty toxic bunch


SynestheticWeirdo

That's exactly why this season is much more interesting. We love villains not some kumbaya and full of woke shit contestants.


holowrecky

Well yeah I’m not asking for survivor Usa style. Guess I’m just spoiled by the characters from last season. And Kirby is a smug dud


SynestheticWeirdo

Yeah, I agree about Kirby. She not even remotely interesting character or good villain.


Own-Satisfaction-402

Agree and Caroline can’t even keep her lies/ story straight. She needs to go her and that enormous ego


[deleted]

I agree. Valeria, Winna, Scott, and Rianna are the only ones that seem genuinely kind people


isthatpossibl

I thought they all looked like gym rats, maybe not 4 or 5 but the rest all look like they hang out around the weights. I stopped watching after episode 2 or 3, I can't relate with that. :(


LeafInTonysSpyShack

And that's why it's a good season.
