I have been a survivor fan since it started. My daughter and I are currently on season 2 and plan to watch all
Of them together. This is the worst season ever. Probts keeps acting like it’s a social experiment and mimics real life. It’s got to the point with this season that it’s not about game play and Jeff keeps pushing for more than what it is. That’s not what I want. I want survivor. Game play and competition. This season flat out sucks. I hope they learn to get it back to the game. Find someone else to be the show runner. Allow
Jeff to host. I don’t even care who wins at this point

After every show I listen to Rob and Stephen's know it alls podcast and this Dan removal has screwed Janet in that now at 5 Janet must play her idol and it's also last time Dean can use the nullifier so unless Janet wins the necklace she is gone at 5.

Dean does not have a nullifier. That was a frake made by Jamal and Dean made his own nullifer. I would still take Dean to the final 3 at this point because the jury will not vote for him.

FIFY

Again the Legacy advantage was the fake thing that jamal made. Dean won a idol nullfier at island of the idols on a coin flip.

Just want this season to be over with. The whole Dan garbage took all the fun out of it. I watch Survivor to escape life and it's like "life" crept in.

Regardless, still want to see some good gameplay and hoping my boy Tommy (winner pick from preseason) takes it home.

My bad, I forgot about that. Did he use it yet?

No. He won it and didn't use it at last week's tribal and had 2 more to use it. Dan's removal took away one of those 2 chances so this next tribal is the only chance left.

Oh how this season would be different if Kellie used one her idols and Dan left the moment all this crap came out.

Yes, I also forgot about the nullifier he won at the coin flip on Island of the Idols. I even wish Dan had been pulled before last week's vote so Elaine was still around.

Do they still have the 'fan favorite' vote where they get $100,000k? She would win that hands down.

Dan should have been gone long before Kellee did if people were smart. He was a creep from day 1 and I was saying that long before they started to highlight it more in the edits. Plus he had his bossy moments and talked down to certain people too that usually gets people voted out. How his situation was dealt with this season really messed this whole season up which is why I really don't want to see Tommy or Lauren win because they probably would have taken him to the final 3 if he hadn't been removed.

If Dean wants any chance of winning he really needs to be the one to orchestrate a move to get Lauren and/or Tommy out of the game with the next vote because I don't really see another way he wins if he is sitting next to 1 or both of them at the end. He probably can't beat Janet either but I think his chances improve if he blindsides a bigger threat than Janet because Janet and Noura are the easy/safe votes at this point and really aren't much of resume builders. He may even need one of those moments in the final 4 where he wins immunity and gives it up to build fire and win his way into the final 3 like Chris did last year.

I suppose the question is, since this is a CBS network special report, are they going to go to Survivor "in progress", or delay it? They've already got a time delay on the "live" special because of all of the controversy surrounding Dan.

I wondered that myself. Hopefully the master control operator isn't asleep at the wheel and can hit pause.
