TV: Survivor: Edge of Extinction - Discussion Thread

[SensBrawler]

That episode was insane!!!!

Was not expecting Aubry to go home this early with an idol in her pocket.

Lauren's got balls of steel.

Wendy was fun but I think she left at the right time.

Love Lauren, Victoria and Kelley.

And if they had kept her then they could have used her extra vote to break the 4-4 deadlock.

Love Lauren, Victoria and Kelley.

That would be a fun final three.

 

[SensBrawler]

That would be a fun final three.

Agreed. Plus, it would probably be the hottest final three ever.

 

[Peasy]

Still think Julie is winning this.

Its nice to a majority of the new players actually wanting to target the returnees (except for Lauren). Also have to admit, i was completely against this twist when it was first announced but I'm liking it now. This is what redemption island should have been.

Curious to see how they'll integrate all the castaways back into the game because technically no one has been officially eliminated from the game.

I am thinking there will be a competition and only the winner gets back into the game.

Oh and that was amazing seeing Aubry blindsided with all those advantages LMAO

Julie's not a bad choice. Personally, I feel like Lauren's the winner, but it's still early.

Also, agree with you about Extinction Island. I thought it was gonna be a disaster when it was first announced, but it's actually been pretty interesting so far.

They shouldn't be allowed to have side secret conversations at tribal, especially after the first vote.

This season still doesn't move the needle for me, but it might be because the last 2-3 seasons have had really strong casts.

 

[SPV]

Excited that we are at the merge, and that they are finally doing something with the edge of extinction players next week. Also, really happy that Lauren survived another week & will now make the merge

Lauren is too emotional, she'll be gone soon.

 

[ThePhoenixx]

I hope people are kind to Wendy during her life.

I think she will spread a lot of happiness and good will to others if she can avoid mean humans.

 

[Deen]

Really hoping Aubry comes back for both game and pool reasons. Not sure she can pull it off though. She will crush people in puzzles so who knows, except maybe the guy who figured out the map. Hopefully it isn't just physical/luck to get back in, I think Survivor producers know she is good television so I have hope.

Wardog’s complete lack of any athletic ability is cracking me up.

 

[hoglund]

Wardog’s complete lack of any athletic ability is cracking me up.

Yeah, he looked terrible trying to throw a ball.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Wardog’s complete lack of any athletic ability is cracking me up.

The guy's such a dud. Its almost funny at this point lol.

 

[SensBrawler]

So Reem was voted out three days into the game and is on the jury.

OK.....

 

[Peasy]

Wentworth is lookin to be fairly bad at this game...

Completely alienates Rick, doesn't even try to get Wardog, Lauren, David, Rick and herself working together.

Joe literally tells her that he has been on the bottom for quite sometime and so has Aurora. Completely ignores all of this and just tries to get Rick out instead when theres a possibility of pulling the majority together.

Agreed.

I also think the Kama tribe majority has very narrow thinking. This season seems to favor the physical players, voting Joe out seems like a waste as there's a high chance he'll get back in later. This was the time to vote out those strategic masterminds instead. They also just reduced their majority. I feel like traditional strategy should be thrown out the window in a season like this with the chance at getting back in the game existing.

 

[SensBrawler]

I don't anybody really played that well in the merge episode except for Rick.

I guess you could argue that Julie played well too. Bonding with Rick and targeting Kelley were smart moves. However, in the end, she didn't get what she wanted which leads me to believe she has very little power amongst her alliance.

The Lesus played poorly. They did a good job of bringing Joe and Aurora into the fold, but they should have also worked with Rick and David. Instead, they targeted them. They were thinking short term instead of long term.

Not sure why Joe was acting so chill post challenge. He should have realized he'd be a target.

And even though the Kama 6 successfully voted out a big target in Joe, they voted off the wrong person IMO. Joe is a challenge threat, but that's pretty much it. On the other hand, Kelley is more of a **** disturber that has shown in the past that she can be hard to eliminate.

Really hoping that the Kelley, Lauren and Wardog can turn it around. Otherwise, this season could be a bit of a slog down the stretch.

 

[Peasy]

Julie had the right idea with getting out Wentworth. If they would have, it would have ensured a majority with their 6. If they vote out Wentworth, Joe and Aurora are still on their side, and thats when they could have eliminated one of them.

This vote just alienated Aurora, and now if the other side wanted to, it could be a 6-6 split. Hypothetically, 6-6 vote, Wentworth's side has 3 idols, gives them a 50/50 shot at playing it on the right person. Even if they didnt and went to rocks, Wentworth's side would have a 5/2 chance of getting one of the other 6 out.

However, we all know this is not going to happen because Manu is terrible and will not want to work together.

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Since when did Rick become Devens? I hate that the production team/Jeff Probst suddenly decided to do this and tell the other players to call him that. Tells me that they will do what they can to keep him around for some reason.

As for Joe, look out. When he comes back in the game, he will probably win every challenge and make the final 3.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

I can't tell if Joe was just clueless that his tribe was going to turn on him or if he just didn't give a crap and wanted to head to Exile lol.

 

[Disclose]

not sure i like more than a 2nd chance.
but kinda dumb to get rid of Joe. knowing he has a chance too comeback. i would keep him until Jeff says this is it. losers are jury, no more playing in the 2nd island.
