Man, I needed this episode of Survivor.  With the election results being what they were, I got pretty drunk to watch this episode with my buddies and it was a really nice break and a genuinely fun episode.

I gotta be honest, I don't love the abundance of twists in this episode.  I would have liked a straightforward vote with all twelve players just so we could see where the lines are drawn.

What a fantastic episode!  This was such a fun ride.  I can't remember a merge boot being this spelled out since The Amazon.  It felt like a big practical joke that we were all in on with the contestants and production.

For most of this episode, this was a pretty average episode of Survivor.  Fortunately, even average Survivor is fun.  What elevated the episode was the ending.

Well, this episode took a turn I wasn't expecting.  I was all set for the downfall of Rome.  I was really excited to see him finally get voted out and out of nowhere the game got flipped on its head.

I'll be honest, I can't wait to see Rome's downfall.  I enjoyed this episode and the season continues to setup the downfall of this egomaniac.

This was a really fun and satisfying episode of Survivor.  I love when overconfident players get setup for an epic downfall and this was no exception.

Survivor is back, baby!  Season 47 got off to a solid start, even if I am disappointed in the first elimination of the season.

I'm not going to lie, this finale left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. It's a damn shame too because this season was on its way to becoming my favorite of the new era seasons, but the finale causes it to drop quite a bit.

This was probably my favorite episode of the season. I loved it! It's been a while since I felt a pit in my stomach during Tribal Council. I usually try to stay mostly objective about who gets voted out and not be too invested one way or another. That wasn't the case this time.

The trainwreck continues! The gameplay may have been bad, but the entertainment was pretty dang good. I think when all is said and done, 46 is going to fit in nicely with Gabon, Nicaragua, and San Juan Del Sur as the trainwreck seasons of Survivor, and I'm all for it.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm very hungry for Applebee's now. I hope Survivor got paid well for that product placement because Applebee's absolutely got their money's worth. I did feel bad for Liz on a human level in this episode, but I'll be honest, I was laughing my ass off the entire time.

It's always fun when you find yourself yelling at the TV screen during an episode of Survivor. I was absolutely yelling at Hunter to play his Idol. It's frustrating that he didn't listen to me, but it was still an exciting episode of Survivor that leaves the door wide open for some craziness next week.

I love how much of a trainwreck this season is becoming. There are so many chaotic personalities that you never know what's going to happen next. This is a really fun cast, and while this Tribal Council may have been dumb, it was certainly entertaining.

I don't love the placement of the double boot episode here. I'd really like at least one normal episode between the Mergatory and the double boot just so we get a better understanding of the full tribe dynamics.

That was a solid Mergatory episode! It had a nice dash of chaos, but it was never hard to follow and their wasn't any production interference to make the episode feel gimmicky.

This was probably my favorite episode of the season so far. It was really exciting to finally see another tribe go to Tribal Council, especially a tribe like Siga, which has gotten along very well up to this point.

Well, that wasn't what I would call a typical episode of Survivor.  A friend of mine called the episode boring, and I can see that in terms of gameplay, but I saw the episode as more of a character study of Bhanu, which I did find interesting even if there wasn't a ton of interesting gameplay to discuss.

Well, I loved the first 98% of this episode. Bhanu's episode-long meltdown was gloriously entertaining. I felt really bad for the guy, but there were times that I couldn't help but laugh at his paranoid spiral. I can't remember the last time we saw a meltdown this intense. All that said, Tribal Council getting canceled pissed me off.

You know, I really want to be on Survivor, but if I get on, can we not do this Immunity Challenge? Holy crap, that looked brutal. It's nice to have evil Jeff back, but damn. Calm down there, Satan. This was a crazy episode with the Yanu tribe being a total trainwreck. It may not have been good gameplay, but it was certainly interesting.
