Survivor (TV show)

[Celirra]

Hello!

To preface this thread, I'm going to mention that there will be spoilers and such here, so be cautious yada yada yada.

I'm going to update this thread once I get home with proper formatting & info and such, but I just wanted to get this out there while it's fresh.

There may or may not be another survivor thread on ffr, but frankly I don't really care too much and figure there should be a 2017 one anyways (there's threads last seen in 2015 in this subforum... not like it's particularly active so hey).



Anywho, here's the plan and what this thread will entail:

I'm going to rewatch every single episode of every season of Survivor, and post my thoughts on each episode as a kind of rolling commentary. I want to rewatch and get back into survivor basically, and this is the best way to motivate myself to do so. I'll probably watch and cover an episode a day, maybe more.

I'm posting this early as well in case anyone would be interested in watching alongside me or anything; I'll be starting at S01:E01 tonight once I'm home from work.

Also if anyone wants to get into this (probably fairly dated nowadays) show, now's a good chance!(?)

As a temporary closing note, survivor is more than just a reality tv show I'd say, and there's two ways to enjoy the show: enjoying the characters/plot, and analyzing the strategy and events. The former is probably more "casual" and common, while the latter is... less so? I go for a mix of both, but probably leaning to the way of analysis and strategy. A common method used in the community by some is via "edgic", which is basically editing logic, and how the editing of the show depicts the story to be a certain way (more prevalent in newer/ongoing seasons). I can cover what it is exactly I guess, but for now Google "Survivor edgic" if you're curious.

Anyways, this is that; expect more tonight probably.
