Any premiere that followed DvG, which was one of the best in years, was never going to reach the same heights. Following the premiere of EoE, I'm still mixed. The show did as much as they could given the time it had. They gave nearly every person at least one moment, yet most of those moments were either surface-level or the players talking about the returnees. Last premiere, I felt like I got a good sense of most of the players. This time, maybe half. In addition, there wasn't anything surprising.

Show content
As soon as they announced the tribe division, it was pretty obvious that the blue tribe would be the first to lose. It also does not fill me with optimism when even the show admits that it's a foregone conclusion that one person is leaving. Reem's glee when she discovered that she had a chance to reenter the game was hilarious.  :funny:

This is my first time I watched Survivor in nearly two years after local cable channel Jack TV returned to my cable subscription. The first episode was great other than previous seasons (till Game Changers).

Well, I enjoyed this a lot more than I could have.
Editing is still great, it was as good as DvG and the change in style from other seasons is very apparent and commendable. I was dreading a 1-hour premiere (90 minutes worked amazing last season, especially with no TC), but for how much they HAD to edit in, the editors did a great job.

Also the edit for IoE at the end with Reem was one of my favorite parts. So epic, gave me Borneo vibes. I'm still pessimistic about the forced content we'll get from IoE throughout the season, but I'm glad we'll see more of Reem. :cmaslol

I hated Wendy in the preview/pre-season, and she is now my favorite. Absolutely adorable! Hope she is not out next week.

The second episode is great that Keith the weakest player voted out especially during the challenge. His fate is unclear that he will go to Extinction Island or end the game. Too good for Kelley Wentworth that she didn't vote out.

Just watched the premiere and second episode, didn't like the premiere. Too short for me.
Daang, i almost got heart attack. I don't know why they changed their minds but so glad that queen Kelly survives. I hate you David  :dick :dick

Btw Wardog reminds me of Tony. His face, his voice, and the way he's talking is similar to Toni

This is a very minor complaint, and im only writing this because i'm bored at work and don't want to work, but i'm not a fan of the claw fire putter outter. it looks so dumb. Also the music isnt as good as last seasons in my opinion. Last seasons music was incredible.

Tony's way better than Wardog.

It's unclear exactly what the Extinction Island (still a ridiculous name) twist is at this point, it seems like it's just a twist on Redemption Island.  Very strange they didn't bother giving the votes at the end of the episode as usual.

I just had a terrible thought, what happens if everyone was on extinction island and keeps staying there until day 39 and so is there any jury? Or if they all stayed there will they all get back into the game?

If everybody on extinction island stays there the whole game, they're all part of the jury. They don't all get back in the game. There's a competition to get back in the game at merge and final 5 or 6 ish. It's redemption Island without the duels.

Wendy is the best player of all time.
She:

-Is on the outside of a loose 6 person group in a tribe of 7
-Hurts her ankle
-Needlessly makes waves at camp about killing chickens
-Steals the tribe's flint
-Receives 0 votes

That is the best third episode of this season. Wentworth is stayed in the game that she shouldn't vote out for long.

Next episode is tribal switch and this will be my first Survivor season since Game Changers to watch.

It's been a while since I've really followed a season, but I'm really enjoying this one.

It's actually a really sad testament to how "strategic" the show has gotten that Wendy could even remotely survive the ridiculous stuff she's been doing. I felt the same way about NaOnka back in Nicaragua, when she flipped out and stole the tribe's stuff, but nobody wanted to vote her out over it. It made even less sense here, and I'm still gobsmacked that they voted out Chris after he was their one saving grace in the challenges.

I can't stand Wardog or the fact that the tribe keeps deferring to him. You'd think after two straight rounds of "Hey Wardog, let's do a thing" "NO, we're going to do something different because I'm Wardog, and reasons!" that people would realize not to let him handle decisions.
