Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42 Finale
And so we've reached the end of another season of Survivor. I do think this was a better season than 41. I think the post-merge was superior, the editing was more well rounded, and the winner had a much more satisfying arc.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 12
I love when the person I am utterly convinced is going to win the game gets taken out. It makes the show so much more exciting, especially when heading into the finale.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 11
I love it when Jeff's stupid twists completely fail. It brings a smile to my face. Now, let's never do the Do or Die and especially the Knowledge is Power ever again!
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 10
This was a pretty straightforward episode of Survivor, to the point where I would call it predictable. But, you know what? A straightforward episode of Survivor is nice sometimes.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 9
Well that took an unexpected turn for the heavy. That 2nd Tribal Council was utterly fascinating to watch.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 8
Once again, Jeff Probst learns nothing. Apart from that, this was a fairly average episode of Survivor though I did love the red paint part of the Beware Advantage.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episodes 6 & 7 (The Merge)
It's good to see that Jeff Probst learned absolutely nothing from the Hourglass Advantage last season and once again screwed up a perfectly good episode of Survivor.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 5
Well, I had a feeling it was coming, but it's never fun to see your winner pick go out, especially in the pre-merge. Apart from that, this was a pretty solid episode.
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 4
This episode was a pretty average episode of Survivor. Totally fine, but nothing too spectacular. Or at least it would have been if the editors hadn't spoiled the outcome by showing who wasn't going home!
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 3
Wow, I think it's safe to say that Survivor 42 has officially kicked it into high gear. This was an awesome episode filled with some terrible gameplay, a lot of which came from my winner pick...
Ryan’s Analysis: Survivor 42, Episode 2
Another good episode of Survivor in the books. While I wouldn't call the gameplay of this episode overly interesting, it was at least extremely funny thanks to the antics of Maryanne and Mike.
