Not sure what the guy that gave 5/10 is talking about, probably a Trump voter..
Amazing season so far, great cast, fun twists and really interesting season. You really don't know who to pick as the winner, everyone in the merge tribe can win it :)
It's the 44th season!!! To manage and recreate the concept without really changing it, is hard, and almost impossible to do it well, and they did really good job.
The new twists system is amazing, the pace is fantastic, you're not getting board with strategy talks...
I mean, what else do you need in the 44th season?!?
Giving it less then 7 is absolutely absurd and has no real meaning to it but unprofessional and childish behavior...
Please go watch this season and the previous one, you won't regret it :)

Every season of Survivor gets harder and harder to watch. What was once a great show has now fallen into the same trap that consumes so many great shows.
It is assuming that the changes to the ages and kinds of players they pick will please a younger generation and that they can get away with ignoring the generations that made the show the hit it once was. How is this working out for you Hollywood?
I suggest that Jeff Probst and CBS learn from the great results that CBS got with Star Trek Picard Season 3 and focus back on what the original Fans want instead of focusing on capturing new fans who most likely are not invested in the show and see it as nothing more than another thing to kill an hour with!
The major problem I have with watching a whole camp of exclusively younger players is that nothing is predictable or logical!
Now that may sound like a good thing in theory but one of the things that made Survivor great was that the Audience could follow along and understand what was happening and why.
The show use to be a balance of actually proving you could survive on an Island while also being able to maintain a level of social behavior that was passable for the situation. Not perfect, just passable.
The new version relies totally on people being social and low profile in order to get through the Game because the current batch of players are so easily offended that one must walk on egg shells when dealing with them.
This shows up when even the best made plan can get steam rolled if one player makes the slightest comment that offends another player. This is on display at just about every Tribal council where players are voting all over the place based on how they feel and not about what is good for their tribe or even their own game.
The only time they have a coherent plan is when it's based on the simple notion that this person is strong so lets get rid of him. They get rid of strong players even when they are three separate tribes and are losing. They do it so they can keep the most likeable people around them even if they contribute nothing and they know they will keep on losing! Then Jeff has fix their mistake by pulling players off another tribe to keep up their dwindling numbers. Please CBS just stop doing that. If people are playing a stupid game then just let that Tribe go down to one or two people and then throw them into the remaining two tribes to prove if they are any good.
Episode 9 actually did have a brilliant plan behind the vote but as a viewer I had already given up on their being a coherent plan and just sat there bored waiting for another major crap shoot like in Ep8.
My guess is that this season will end like most of the last five seasons of survivor. The game will end with two Goats and one Weasel ending up at the final tribal council.
You will know this because almost every vote will be cast for just one player. As is Survivor tradition, nobody votes for Goats!
CBS it is s a lot more satisfying to see a real survivor Win rather than a low profile Weasel who just used deception to win.
Lord help anyone if they are actually stranded on an island with people who are this useless.

Man look what happens when you just let the players play! Last two episode have been great episodes of survivor. No stupid twists just old school gameplay.
The three TIKA are really entertaining, being the main focus for almost the entire season and I'm here for it. Again they held the golden ticket in another tribal council. These last two episodes have saved the post merge game imo. Hopefully they can have a strong ending!
My rankings as of Final 8 Favs: Carolyn Danny Frannie Yam Yam
Like: Carson Heidi
Eh: Lauren
Get Out Please: Jamie
PS Jeff please give us a returning players season in S45 I'm begging.
Summary: Best episode of the season so far.
