Are you a "Survivor"-er?

Thought I'd resurrect this thread to see if anyone watched the premiere the other night.  I was in a chat connected to a reality TV website I frequent while I watched it, and Zane immediately acquired the affectionate nickname of "meth lab".

I'm so disappointed that he was the first one out, as I was looking forward to using that name all season.  He looked like he'd be pretty entertaining too.  I loved his brilliant move of making alliances with everyone and then ratting himself out

I can't really tell who the cast is although some guy named John Rocker keeps getting mentioned.

Love the Blood vs Water concept so I'm in.

Resurrecting this thread because last night's episodes were quite a doozy. Anyone watching this season?

This Wednesday is the premiere of the show's first ever All Winners season. Forty seasons. Twenty players. ONE Survivor!

I couldn't be more excited.

I'm surprised it took them 40 seasons to do that.

So I guess they do 2 seasons a year?  Because this show's only been on since 1999.

Yeah, 2 a year. A season is only about 13 eps so it still works out to a regular tv show's full season since summer 2000.

Fans have been wanting this for a looong time. There's been quite a few duds over 20 years, so there's a part of me that's glad they waited until the cast would be absolutely stacked. And it is.

Watched the premiere last night. EPIC. Much like Avengers: Endgame, the more you're invested in these people, the more amazing it is to watch. Everyone not only really came to play, but everyone fit into their perceived personality *so* well, it was really amazing to watch.
