Survivor AU Season 6

Mr E

Worth its own thread!

Love that superfan guy (Andy) who built and trained with all the games. He really thinks he will win, and he really thinks he will be considered an allstar. It won't help unless his social game is good though.... I think he might be a bit too cocky for his own good.

Good mix of contestants, but the champions definitely skew a bit older than the contenders.

Off to watch the 2nd episode there. I have mixed emotions about the teams. In the challenges I'm cheering on the champions because of their age, next second I'm cheering on the contenders. I love the mullet guy. He's so passionate about things lol.
Is Andy the guy with the golf hat?

Yeah he told them he was a freelance journalist writing about golf!

It's so good. Loving it! Never seen an episode of Survivor ever so this is such a novelty to me.
Liking Luke the guy from last year.

Mr E

I'm up to episode 5 now. I think this is up there with the best seasons from the US version. It's so good!

Shifting alliances, blind sides, immunity idols (real and fake), no post-game redemption crap, full reward and immunity challenges in all episodes (some are very long and tough too). It's just consistently entertaining.

norabattie

Yeah the fake idol thing was genius wasn't it. I can see David getting his comeuppance sooner rather than later though

Its been better than US Survivor for 3 straight seasons, its longer episodes, less gimmicks, less drama, and shows life at camp way better. While still throwing in some idols but not a stupid amount of them. It much closer to the original contest we as all fans fell in love with.

Mr E

Episode 6 was great. Two seriously tough physical challenges. No spoilers, but looking forward to episode 7.

Mr E

Episode 9 was a cracker! What a tribal!

norabattie

Yeah David was fairly sweating it LOL

norabattie

Ok Realised I was an episode behind there. That last Tribal was brilliant

Mr E

Episode 10 was a good one too... David is some chancer. I'm surprised people didn't realise what the big pile of popcorn on the ground meant.

Little rossie

Brilliant season so far this year. As others have said better than the American Survivor. Not as sanitised. Cannot understand how David is playing everyone and getting away with it. Some of the challenges have been very tough. Episode 11 is a good one.

Mr E

12, brilliant. Another great tribal.
Fair play to

Harry

. Playing his heart out.

The tears. How cringe was that How soon to the merge?

Mr E

Pretty soon. Usually at the half way point and they are there now.

Mr E

Episode 13: Ouch! Could have been worse. I wonder if the challenge crew got grief for the snapped rope?

Episode 14: Merged. Unpredictable. Loved the parting shot by the evictee!

Sunday looks like it will be fun.

pooch90

ooh didn't know Ep 14 was up yet
Yeah mega ouch! Looked way worse at first glance. Someone defintely getting a B*ollocking over that!! I'd say they were lucky with who took the tumble.

norabattie

Oh Andy - that was priceless

Mr E

Episode 15 - some savage challenges, a brilliant reward and a frantic tribal.
Fair play to the two guys left in the water challenge.

Big blindside

tomorrow?

This is my first time posting on this thread.
I've been pretty much binge watching it as much as possible.

Just finished episode 13. All I can say is ouch! Poor guy

Mr E

16 - Wow. What a tribal. :eek:

I thought I could see him put 2+2 together during the pre-vote discussion. Pure stubbornness!

Took it like a champ though.

The way it was edited I was full sure he was after copping on to what was going to happen
It was really well played. Delighted haha. Even

Lukey

didn't see it coming, but his reaction was funny.

Mr E

17 - That balance challenge was excellent. Great TV.

I'm good at the plank. I wonder how long I'd have lasted.
I thought Janine would have had that. She's big in to yoga and core strength as far as I recall.

Sorry to see the latest evictee go. Great character.

pooch90

Sad to see

John

go. I was a big fan. Always knew that

daisy wouldn't have the guts to play it for someone else.

Harry was right on the ball with what was going to happen. I wonder how the first two jury members got on locked up together!

norabattie

Daisy will go soon enough cos she's too nervous to play the game properly. Gutted about

John

. Janine is getting a little too smug for me now too. TBH I hope Lukey wins the whole thing but can't see that happening either

stargazer 68

TBH now the last person left I don't really care who wins!

Yeah i was rooting for him. He was my fave. But i'd be happy to see Luke win too

pooch90

I wouldn't mind Luke winning, his back story is heartbreaking so I'd love him to get the cash. I'm also rooting for Pia. I think she's been playing it very well and only Janine seems to know what she's up to. Janine would also be a great advocate for her on jury. (Haven't seen the latest episode yet so hopefully they are both still there!)

Mr E

18: More great challenges. That vertical version of twister was such a great idea.
The amount of wheeling and dealing in the last 20 minutes was fantastic. I had no idea who was going to go...

norabattie

19 was fantastic .
