Episode 1 / Episode 2
The Stakes Have Been Raised, Part 1 / Part 2





So long...

...Ciera and Tony. This is going to be a fun season. It's already off to a great start, unlike the past couple of seasons that took awhile to get up and running. The one thing that Game Changers has going for it is that this is essentially the All-Star Season in which players from past seasons come back to win it all. I know that a lot of people despise All-Star Editions because it takes away from the new crop of players. I for one enjoy these seasons because it's fascinating to watch players either switch up their game-play because everyone already knows what their style is or they just continue down the same path with the same results. Most players have to adapt in order to win, but there are the rare few that can stick to what made them so successful. So, all eyes are obviously going to be squarely on Sandra, the only 2-Time Winner on Survivor. I highly doubt she will win this again, but then again, I said the same thing before she pulled off the upset and won for the second time. As for Tony, I'm glad he is gone. Annoying. Ciera is a good player and that's why she got the boot first. Dangerous. This was my second time watching this 2 Hour Premiere. I watched it last Wednesday, but I was busy with other stuff that I missed a lot. Had to see what exactly I did miss this time around.

Episode 3
Survivor Jackpot





So long...


...Caleb. I'm actually very surprised at this move. Not because he was "strong" player, but because of Tai. He professes himself to be an "honorable" person and player and he is anything but that. Caleb was BFF in this season and the previous season they competed on together. So for him to orchestrate Caleb's ouster just further proves that Tai is just an evil person. Sure, it's part of the game, but come on....this was cutthroat when it didn't need to be.

Episode 4
The Tables Have Turned





So long...

...Malcolm. Talk about a shock. Yes, it's always a shock when a fan favorite gets the boot, especially this early into the season. But it was the Tribal Council that really did change things up big time. Normal when there are 3 Tribes and 2 of them are asked to go to Tribal Council, it has always been that each tribe will vote off one of their own. The Twist this time was that both Tribes would vote on just one person. So, as you can imagine, there is a lot of scrambling trying to convince someone from the other side to join them. It was funny seeing Jeff Probst watching them scrambling during the Council for last second guidance as to who to vote out. Throw in Tai's Hidden Immunity and you have an epic moment to savor.

Episode 5
Vote Early, Vote Often





So long...

..Sandra. Well, it took 2 1/4 seasons.....Sandra FINALLY gets voted off. To this day, I still don't know how she ever won Survivor, let alone doing it twice. I don't think she is all that good of a player other than being able to manipulate others simply by "listening" to them. But then what the f*ck do I know....she bagged $2 Million for her efforts. So clearly something was working. I'm just glad she is finally gone. As for Tai, he is beyond stupid. If he acts in 'real life' the way he did in tonight's Tribal Council, then he has some serious issues he needs to seek help on. Either he is completely unaware of how he comes off or complete arrogance. As for Debbie, she is so full of sh*t in how she presents herself. The first time she played the game she liked to brag about how "tough" she is and how all of her "military" training has made her such a badass in life. She sucked then and she sucks more so now. She is extremely fragile and also needs to seek help outside the game. Kinda cool to see Cochran make a surprise appearance to help with strategy on 'Exile Island".....a Yacht of all things.

Episode 6
What Happened on Exile, Stays on Exile





So long...

...Jeff. Man, he is going to have to live with what he did for the rest of his life. THIS will define him moving forward. I find it very hard to imagine him doing anything else that will wipe away a moment he will regret forward. I was stunned when he outed Zeke as a Transgender to the world. My eyes literally looked like a cartoon. In a desperate move on his part shift the vote from him to another player, he chose to make it known Zeke has a habit of "deception", thus the reason why he outed him. I don't think Jeff did this with malicious intent....he was just stupid and shortsighted. But what is really baffling is that Jeff himself is a gay man. He should have looked at his own life and ask if what he was about to say and do was appropriate. As for Zeke, the look on his face when he realized what had just happened was very telling. A deer in headlights. I commend the rest of the Tribe-mates coming to his defense. And to Zeke's credit, he didn't rant or rave or point fingers. Very composed and told his story as to why he kept it to himself. Now, before people start bashing Survivor as doing this for "ratings", I'm sure the Producers of the show ask Zeke for approval to include this in the final edit. The episode itself gets 4 Stars as it was another solid one....but this Tribal Council gets 0 Stars for the revelation and 5 Stars for the Tribe-mates standing up for him.

Episode 13
Reunion Show




So, Sarah won. Meh. There is nothing worse than have 3 finalist at the end and no one to cheer for. A lot of the players I would have liked to see get the million dollars were ousted fairly early on in the game. Even though I enjoyed this season, it made it difficult in looking forward each week to new episode with so many people not worthy of the cash and title of Winner. The last player I held out for was Cirie and when they opened the Season Finale Recap that she has never won an Immunity Challenge in the 4 times she's played the game, I knew she was the next one to go. Speaking of Cirie, her being "voted" off was one for the books. Everyone left in the game was so paranoid that two people played a total of 3 Hidden Immunity Idols, and with Brad having the Immunity Necklace, that meant everyone left in the tribe was safe from the vote....except Cirie. So, she becomes the first person "Voted" off without getting one single vote. Man, that's gotta hurt and will haunt her for a long long time.  The Reunion Show was good. Everyone was waiting to hear what Zeke and Jeff had to say. I liked how Zeke has handled the whole thing, I didn't like that Jeff made it about himself...promoting his upcoming book. Really Jeff? Classless.
