Low-Key HOW COULD YOU @jimmyfallon.bsky.social #survivor50 #dabudoodles #comics

#Survivor50 I thought Jeff Probst competing in the IC was a lot of fun, and a massive improvement over the rice "negotiation," but I also couldn't help seeing the shot below left without thinking of the one below right.

#Survivor50 Without knowing how fast the timer ran out: How hard was Christian's puzzle? 1. It's a vertical puzzle, the pieces must be placed in a certain order (+hard). 2. It's two-sided (+), although the pic below shows the edge was silver on the side facing Christian, gold on the other (-).

#Survivor50 Thanks to Rick and Emily last night, Ozzy has finally taken Andrea's "most votes against" career crown away from her. Ozzy now has 37 votes against. www.truedorktimes.com/survivor/box...

#Survivor50 Next time... It's a relatively normal-looking auction! [crowd cheering noises] ...with MrBeast. [sad muffled trumpet, groans, sound of someone sobbing]

#Survivor50 Here's Damnbueno on how the second-time players are performing this season, plus, of course, all the stuff that happened in Episode 9, most of which you would probably rather forget. www.truedorktimes.com/s50/damnbuen...

#Survivor50 Tiffany and Aubry painting the merge tribe flag on "Day 17," and the finished flag, as shown in Ep9. Note that Dee (voted out two episodes ago) had not yet painted her name on the flag when Tiff is painting.

#Survivor50 If this season is really "In the Hands of the Fans," there's still time to add an America's Tribal Council at the end.

#Survivor50 Hey, cool, everyone who found a boomerang idol has been voted out and really could have used one, and everyone who was sent one is still there and hasn’t needed it.

A picture is worth a thousand words #Survivor #Survivor50

#Survivor50 fans: “Please stop taking away players’ votes” Probst: “Sorry, I can’t hear you.” Jimmy Fallon: “I have something much, much worse!” Probst: “I’m listening…”

#Survivor50 Joe’s immunity win was his sixth in his career, moving him into a tie with Joe Anglim, Spencer, and Parvati for third-most in US Survivor history.

#Survivor50 Thank you, Emily, for explaining how having food gives people the mental energy to play Survivor. (I'm sure it was forgotten ten seconds later, but every little bit helps.)

#Survivor50 This episode is shaping up to really reward everything fans love: Mentions of Gabler, Zac Brown, Jimmy Fallon (repeatedly); targeting of Christian, Rick, and Emily; non-stop gloating by Jonathan. (How can it be Probst competing in the challenge was the only good part?)

#Survivor50 That's a pretty weak "advantage," although that puzzle looks pretty simple. (Still love the timing device.)

#Survivor50 It's so disappointing that Jonathan Penner was not invited to guest-narrate this challenge. (Please give us the Emily-narrated cut as a secret scene.)

#Survivor50 This is Jeff Probst's dream job: He can take food away from starving people AND play Survivor fantasy camp at the same time!

#Survivor50 If Jonathan wins, how many S50 contestants will be skipped over in the live reunion in order to have a 10-segment with Boston Rob? 5? 10?

#Survivor50 They merged on Day 12 and Aubry and Tiffany are still painting their names on the merge tribe flag on Day 17?

Dear Paramount+: I don't like this thumbnail for my favorite show that you stream, #Survivor50. How do I change it?

#Survivor50 When you think about it, the "rice negotiation" is the perfect encapsulation of new era Survivor. Jeff Probst: "Hi there! I made a bunch of changes nobody asked for." Everyone: "Wow, neat. Can you change them back now?" Probst: "NO CAN DO. You MUST give up something." Everyone: *sigh*

#Survivor51 filming appears to have started (on April 18th, according to a @realitytvfan.bsky.social post that was not cross-posted here, but is up on reddit). That's basically the same timeframe as S49 was last year, and Final Tribal would happen a week before the live #Survivor50 reunion.

This year's Tribeca Festival will feature an alumni panel talking #Survivor50, including: Cirie Rob Cesternino Kyle Kamilla Teeny Jonathan Penner The festival runs June 3-14 in NYC. While passes to the whole festival are open now, single tickets to the event will go on sale 4/28

Who will take over now as the new main #Survivor50 antagonist? My money’s on “the fans” who voted for these twists - aka the voices Jeff Probst hears in his own head. Also a new #1 at the top of this week’s power rankings 👀: www.truedorktimes.com/s50/kaiser/e...

#Survivor50 There's been a big change at the top of @ryankaiser.bsky.social 's Power Rankings, as a fan favorite glides into the #1 slot. How does he see the rest of the rankings shake out? www.truedorktimes.com/s50/kaiser/e...

#Survivor50 Since treemail is too old-fashioned these days, did we ever decide if are we going with "seamail" or "boat note" for the new message delivery system?

#Survivor50 I realize it's extremely on-brand of me to complain about an episode that everyone liked, but well, that's what I do now, I guess: www.truedorktimes.com/s50/recaps/e...

Did anyone archive the phrasing of the fan vote questions for the #Survivor50 fan vote? I've found a composite image of some of them at Reddit, but the voting website has been scrubbed, and even the Wayback Machine seems to have been thwarted. What I most want is the "dynamic" advantages question.

#Survivor50: In the Hands of One Man

#Survivor50 Even if you count Boston Rob's time on Extinction in WaW, Cirie has now tied him in days played, and will pass him at the start of the next episode. www.truedorktimes.com/survivor/box...

#Survivor50 Rizo: "If we can look at the lore of what happens to people who take shots at me? They don't make it out alive." (I like Rizo, but...) the lore: - S49: N=3, small sample size. No significant correlation. - S50: N=4, Charlie (& now Chrissy) out; Rick and Jonathan still in the game.

#Survivor50 I'm thinking the pre-IC Jonathan confessional talking about how "everyone wants Devens out so bad" because he's so good at finding idols was probably from the following episode, after his fake idol gambit. Ep8 was a 1-day episode, and Jonathan did not wear that shirt early or at Tribal.

#Survivor50 Here's Damnbueno on Episode 8, with its big twist and fake idol play (both imported from SurvivorSA), and a look back at past "celebration"/milestone seasons, and what followed them (with an eye to 51/52). www.truedorktimes.com/s50/damnbuen...

#Survivor50 If Ozzy or Rizo had played their idol for themself, would its protection also have carried over to their partner? The boomerang idol only had two rules: You cannot give it to anyone else, and you can only play it for yourself.

#Survivor50 If we're just rolling out random unfair twists willy nilly, I vote for the tallest poppy syndrome twist, where Jonathan is automatically out because of his height.

#Survivor50 Somewhere, Sears casting contest-era Rick Nelson is smiling, unaware that in just 15 short years, his mission will be complete.

#Survivor50 Is it legal for Christian to use Star Wars metaphors when talking with his metaphorical Star Trek captain?

#Survivor50 Probst: "You are pairs, you will win together or lose together, and one pair will be voted out together." Also Probst: "Please come up separately to receive your immunity necklaces."

#Survivor50 Maybe they only use boats instead of treemail because someone used the treemail as a latrine.

I am once again begging Jeff Probst to watch any of the last five #SurvivorAU seasons (AU: Heroes v Villains through AU: Redemption). All solid to spectacular in entertainment value, all superior to what US #Survivor has been doing in the same time frame. And fun! Remember fun?

Me realizing there's no more #SurvivorAU until late January/ early February, 2027.

What a great season of #SurvivorAU. Truly jaw dropping blindsides, some pure, sweeping #Survivor strategy, intense battles with hits on both sides, heating up to extremes from about a third in & extending all the way to this stellar final week. Go back & watch it if you missed it.

#Survivor fans: "Hey, would you consider bringing back the fun, campy jury vote delivery bit for the finale/reunion?" US Survivor: "Yeah, nah." #SurvivorAU: "Don't mind if we do!"

#SurvivorAU finale preview (?):

#SurvivorAU Both pre-finale episodes this week have done an outstanding job of convincing me I know how the vote is going to go, then not doing that. Chaos, indeed.

WE HAVE 751 SURVIVOR PLAYERS

#Survivor50 Here's @ryankaiser.bsky.social with his post-Episode 7 Power Rankings: whose hammock-bound maneuverings supported the most future swings? www.truedorktimes.com/s50/kaiser/e...

#Survivor50 My Ep7 recap, on an excessive quantity of Coach, how I see the post-merge shaping up (mostly yikes), and making the case for an international individual IC record: www.truedorktimes.com/s50/recaps/e...

#Survivor50 Oh no, are they actually doing Paired Destinies? (One of the most hated twists the otherwise great SurvivorSA tried?)

#Survivor50 Here's Damnbueno on Episode 7, which tried to make up for an excessive amount of Coach with more Coach: www.truedorktimes.com/s50/damnbuen...
