Absolutely some gems in the new era casts and I’m sure a lot of them are victims to “good vibes”/“celebrating the game we all love” production and editing choices, but you’re getting any experience diversity when everyone is a middle class millennial with storytelling skills.
I feel like I’ve watched the exact same first four episodes on each of the last 9 Survivor seasons? Tribe phase wildly dull with no structure, thematic or even challenge changes.
Doesn’t help that casting is largely comms managers, journalists and - of course - superfans.
@CraveHelp trying to activate my premium crave account on my PS5 and when i input the activation code on my device, crave on my PS5 never refreshes the window leaving me logged out. this is extremely annoying
I thought that 7 actors playing Bob Dylan in a single movie back in 2007 was enough for a lifetime of prestige Bob Dylan biopics and yet here we are having to pretend Timothee Chalamet in A Complete Unknown was a good idea
Is the casting for this season of Survivor is ironically one of the least diverse in history? They’re all 20 something podcasters, reporters or marketing managers that make the season feel like Survivor Frosh Week more than something that claims it’s a “microcosm of society”
This season of Survivor has had mostly terrible gameplay, questionable casting and confusing production choices - BUT the absolute insanity around this Applebees Burger made for easily the most entertaining episode of the season
@RDefina I didn’t mind them because they felt mostly organic, minus of course the concept of the reward itself. I largely just thought Applebees as a key plot point for the entire 90 min episode was… hilarious?
