āisnāt that just a trashy reality tv show?ā
NO. reality tv yes but trashy absolutely not. Survivor is the ideal of the Genre all other shows strive towards. there is a reason that we are on season 47 (!!) right now and itās still EXCELLENT
jeff probst is the best most passionate host for a game show ever, heās invested in what he does and in the game. the show is funny and entertaining and human and engaging. the show has been doing āsocial experimentsā since before every reality show decided to call themselves āsocial experiments.ā
basic premise of the show is that players start out on a tribe where they are competing against another tribe (or tribes, depending on the season) in challenges. every episode the tribe that loses the āimmunity challengeā has to vote someone out. THEN once the tribes are small enough, they āmergeā and then everyone is on one big tribe and it becomes an individual game with individual immunity challenges. alliances from the early part of the season may stay or may not!
itās just the best reality show and itās got heart and itās got soul and itās entertaining as hell. please watch it. best seasons are probably Heroes vs Villains and Cagayan so thatās where i would start if i were you. youāll be quoting jeff probst before you know it. i grew up on survivor and rediscovered my love for it as an adult and you all deserve to experience this, too.

So, it has come to my attention that Survivor, the island survival reality tv show, is IN right now.
Which is fascinating to me, because I grew up watching Survivor with my mom. She has seen every single episode over the course of the show's 20+ years. I watched maybe 10ish years of them with her.
This show is great for some reason, always has been. Go ahead, watch a season or two.
I associate this Heroes vs. Villains season with the most carefree part of my childhood.
