10/Survivor has me doing something I haven’t done for years… watching free-to-air, live!
Congrats to an amazing season Endemol Shine.
I’m calling it. The best season of the entire franchise. Yes, it’s better than the US Heroes v Villains.
Oof that is a big call and I won’t yuck your yums … but nothing will top the daily watch of last year’s Sth African Survivor for me.
I strongly suggest you give it a watch
Survivor has become a success because they got rid of all the gimmicks.
I wouldnt mind if next year they brought back the exact same cast on survivor..they have been great!
Aus Survivor is hitting all the right beats this year – and after a few duds years (All Stars, Brains/Brawn, Blood/Water) I’m coming around to Aus Survivor
Don’t get me wrong, there are things that I kinda hate and will have my old man yells at cloud moment (the mixed newbie/returnee casting being the massive point), but this season is righting a ship that I though was long gone for myself and many other die-hard fans.
I hope they keep up the trend in future seasons.
It’s rated well every year for Ten, that’s why they keep bringing it back right?
I am moreso speaking to the quality of the product – I didn’t care for the last few seasons, even as a Survivor fanatic, I legitimately felt like not watching the Australian Survivor (and I know many who had that opinion of last season, who have come around on this season)
Additionally, same-day viewership is up on last years Blood/Water season – and still climbing. So it’s not just a silly fan-boy take, but a business positive take too. I think and hope that Ch10 and the production team take the the right lesions (an excitable game-motivated cast with no overly silly twists playing the classic Survivor will make great TV)
