Were those trees not dead? I thought he was pulling dead trees cause he thought they were out of place or something

I thought I saw leaves on them? Next he'll be slaughtering the chickens.

You saw correctly. They were baby trees though and in what looked like very loose dirt so they were easy to pull out. Which is why he initially noticed that they looked entirely out of place.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Wow that bug was scary shit. How come they didn't try to pour water in her ear ear? Maybe it would have floated out to the top.

Maybe they did but they edited it out

 

[matthewwhatever]

Per social media, they were playing the late game early- he was "too likable'.

It's the exact thing that screwed up the Brains tribe early in BBB1 - that first vote was a disaster.

I don't think a better boot order would've helped them very much. David Samson should've been dropped out of the plane on the way to the Philippines (why yes, I was an Expos fan, how could you tell?), and Garrett was pretty pathetic after a few days out there. J'Tia was poisonous, but they were sucking no matter when she got the boot.

More to your point, though: absolutely. I don't get why people would start worrying about post-merge at the very first vote.

 

[J-Rod]

I would think just ripping up any tree or plant like that would probably destroy the roots and kill it. He sure didn't mind telling that guy to cut the tree, either.

Ah, yeah you're right. I was mistaken.

 

[Jack Scofield]

Jesus Christ this episode was so hard to watch because of that bug. It felt like a horror movie.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Maybe they did but they edited it out

Maybe so, kind of weird they wouldn't mention it though. That was a weird ass looking bug that came out.

What's up with the odd person that doesn't fit each team? Is this some kind of troll?

 

[kirblar]

Medical was called on Jenn's ear per some pics that surfaced post-ep. Probably wasn't coming out when they tried to flush it, since it was leeching off her.

 

[SecretMoblin]

finally caught up, it's been a long week.


good first ep!

some fun characters and some mess. Nobody really jumps out as an early fave other than ice cream dude maybe, but whatever.

 

[User 479360]

The wait between episodes is hard. Too bad Survivor couldn't air two episodes a week like awful American Idol or something.

 

[Tevious]

I'm not sure who to root for yet, I was thinking maybe Tai, but he's already an outcast in his tribe.

Also, I edited this season's logo for accuracy.

 

[Ganhyun]

i just need to see Beast Mode find a replacement for Amber and then get booted trying to protect her.

http://www.toronto24hours.ca/2016/02/17/probing-jeff-probsts-survivor-secrets - Good general Probst interview. Surprisingly, they apparently have a problem finding gay contestants, which comes as a shock to me given the show's online fanbase. (Survivor Sucks especially.)

 

[BowieZ]

I've rewatched the episode twice now. I'm pretty sure I've broken the show's formula for presenting the winner. We'll see, but based on the 2-minute scene where this person was properly fleshed out, it seems quite obvious to me. (Hopefully I'm wrong, though. I picked the last two winners from the first episode, although toward the end of the season when the win became so obvious I've always second guessed myself to try and subconsciously enjoy the suspense more. My guess, in arrogant spoiler text:

Time for episode 2!

 

[Grexeno]

Alecia is
wow

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

So which editor did Alecia piss off?

 

[redhood56]

That was so god damn obvious.
Edit: ok this is cool

 

[Grexeno]

That clue was barely even hidden.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

They are really making him work for this.

 

[KibblesBits]

Holy shit.

 

[redhood56]

Ow god damn

 

[Grexeno]

Okay I can deal with the incredibly obvious clue if you have to make a torturous climb up a tree.

 

[Kifimbo]

Put your shoes and shirt, idiot.

 

[matthewwhatever]

They're really making them work for the HIIs! I don't think I've ever seen anyone bleed to try and get it.

 

[kirblar]

This feels like it's designed to need 2+ people to help play into the twist.

 

[KibblesBits]

Now they're going to ask him why he's all fucked up at camp.

 

[Jarrod38]

Crazy Debbie

 

[Grexeno]

I see Debbie enjoys water-borne parasites.

 

[matthewwhatever]

So...Debbie gets a medevac for a stomach parasite?

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Is Debbie really a chemist? Holy shit!

 

[OceanicAir]

I really like what they have done with the hidden immunity idols these past two seasons.

I''m also glad that Alecia is living up to her 'mental giant' status.

Also Debbie pls. I'm studying to become a chemist.

 

[Kifimbo]

And another idiot.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Damn 10 minutes late, but started at crazy Debbie, lol

 

[lamaroo]

I hope Liz sticks around for a while

<3

 

[kirblar]

Debbie's not crazy- the water's put there by production. Early on, it's still fresh.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Tai and Caleb, that foreshadowing

 

[KibblesBits]

LOL, the odd couple.

 

[Grexeno]

If Caleb and Tai suddenly became an odd couple

that would be amazing.

 

[GraveRobberX]

There it is!

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Well, this is certainly something.

 

[FaintColt388301]

Gay Caleb is best Caleb

 

[redhood56]

I don't think tai is going to win, but I hope he does.

 

[GraveRobberX]

I don't think tai is going to win, but I hope he does.

He's my dark horse

 

[BTM]

Missed first 15 minutes. Someone got an idol?

 

[Grexeno]

Missed first 15 minutes. Someone got an idol?

Tai found a clue in a tree, which led to a buried locked chest under a different tree. The key was located all the way up a VERY TALL palm tree.

 

[kirblar]

Missed first 15 minutes. Someone got an idol?

Tai knows where the key to unlock it is (super high in a tree.)

I suspect he's going to need Caleb's help to get it.

 

[Jarrod38]

Every time I see previews for the new Batman vs Superman movie I cringe.
