I've given it 3 episodes... and I'm bored.
* Lame reward challenges: I really hate the "loved one vs loved one" format. These are challenges that should be saved for after the merge.
* Too much "family" drama: When you decide to spend time on things like Julie upset about John, you take away time from other things.
* No "surviving": In seasons past, you'd see them struggle with food, fire, shelter. None of that this year.
* It might have been interesting to see Nadiya last longer than she did. I would've liked to see more of John; Survivor needs villains. Most of the cast seems to be bland.
