TAR 31 EPISODE 1 LIVE UPDATES & COMMENTARY WED 4/17/19 9PM EST *read Post 1*
Musicon:
Rupert was best on his first season before he became more self-righteous, and from what I remember Pearl Islands was a watchable early season, though Survivor has obviously changed a great deal since then. All the other Survivor people on this I don't particularly remember.
Xoruz:
Let's all be glad that Million Dollar Mile was pulled. Let's also be glad that the show rated well. Let's hope that CBS stops trying to find shows to replace TAR. For now, let's enjoy this season. I thought that this was a fun premiere. The tasks themselves weren't anything to write home about; however, the teams for me brought the entertainment. I enjoyed everyone on the show and thought that they all brought something to this episode. With all the complaints that TAR is too task focused, it was great seeing so much self-navigation in this leg. Even the little addition of having teams take a taxi to a subway station and have them search on foot in the park, I loved that this led to multiple teams getting lost. I also never would have guessed that a team would take a penalty this leg, so I was surprised.
My sand is broken. :funny:
Leo doing everything for Pablo. :funny:
Elissa riffing her sister on her previous races. :funny:
Afghanimal's fake argument to throw off the teams. :funny:
Colin Guinn with old man strength. :funny:
Eliza saying "Go Twinnie." :funny:
Octopus: Not too much to say about this task though it does make more sense now knowing there was a second part cut.
Shibuya Search: Love that teams were forced to face a language barrier right away.
Sweet Shoe: The task was essentially the opposite of TAR 17 fake food challenge and was pretty fun.
Mount Fuji: TAR decided to bring over the OTEV challenge. Not too much to say as the task itself was pretty simple though it did create some fun moments like Bret climbing the mountain and forgetting the clue. Didn't expect Art to quit, the man has terrible luck with hill challenges.
I'm excited for this season. Looking forward to Laos next week.
3.5/5

And really makes me wish we had a Jen and Kristi back on this season. Strong women who don’t bitch and moan to get people to feel sorry for them.

This probably isn't the right place to put this, but regarding the second part, Jen said on Justin Scheman's Racers Recap thing that nobody from S30 got contacted for S31, so there's that. They could also be holding teams for a full all-stars season.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I wonder if Janelle and Elissa were disappointed that they couldn't do the Mt Fuji roadblock, because they'd both have been great at it, since they each won the OTEV comp
