Behind the Screen: Survivor 41 - Episode Discussion

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

Alicia, Chelsea, Sabrina, and Kim were all amazing in their own ways. Excellent girls cast but the guys were beyond tragic...

True but Kim was years ahead everyone on that cast, probably the most dominant win in a survivor season, from what i remember Sabrina was good too, but for me it was a poor season, better than RI or Island of the idols but still a bottom season

I loved Alicia, very rarely do we get such a great female villain who embraces the role.

I agree but Kim would have been years ahead of most casts.  She played an absolutely perfect game. I enjoy watching someone new dominating the game like she did. Returnees against newbies not so much.

I don't take nothing of Kim's win, has i said it was the most dominant win of all time, just think that she had outside of Boston Rob in Redemption Island, probably the weakest competion to win, almost everybody wanted to play with her, but credit where its due, she controlled the game

The butterfly quote twist is such a bizarre idea I don't understand what they are thinking

It's family fun hijinx for this new era of Nickelodeon Survivor!

i'm not really getting nickelodeon from this season, it reminds me of regular survivor. i mean we've had seasons called "heroes vs healers vs hustlers" and twists like "island of the idols" as well as jeff talking with children at the reunion show

It reminds me more of Surivivor Australia with these random twists

This reminds you of regular Survivor? Cause this is not the show I grew up loving and watching.

Too many damn twists and advantages

I wish they'd go back to basics for season 43. Play it just like season 1 and 2. I'm curious how it would play out with todays players. Would there still be a pagonging?

Vegas43#256

there's definitely going to be pagoning. most tribes do not stop being bad at immunity challenges. it's to be expected 

anon12423452355...#257

I dunno, todays players wanna make big moves for the sake of big moves. I think a BvW with all newbies could be interesting played in a traditional Survivor style game with no twists.

Challenge 17#258

I just cant get over how impractical the "advantage" is like it ruins your game and is completely reliant on the other tribes and with the less days what if they turn to 2 tribes in the swap and nobody finds it?

There was a warning lol

But seriously the twists are dumb. I'm all for Back to Basics.

I hope they get rid of the final 4 firemaking challenge asap. 

Aspiring#261

I feel like Russell Hantz has ruined idol hunting for the franchise. Because before that, you had to go to Exile Island and look for a bunch of clues that lead you to an idol. Nowadays, you can look under a random rock and there's an idol. All because Russell went looking for them on Samoa.

And now that production stopped caring about the different locations, they've had to come up with inventive twists to mask the fact that they've been going to the same places repeatedly. Even moreso now that they've taken permanent residence in Fiji.

Yes, please!

The Men of the Ua tribe are the worst of all 41 seasons, They are all so annoying haha. Poor Genie and Shan stuck with those flops

You know there was a contestant arrested for child **** right? But go on

omg I actually didn't, maybe my post was slightly dramatic but just television wise from what I could remember

They clearly were being dramatic. They were also talking about in terms of annoyance...not character. And they were referring to the all the men as a whole, not just one person's actions outside the show.

Yeah when you have Dan in Island of the Idols who inappropriately touched another contestant and a producer, and even worst Mr. Skups who had child pornography on is PC and tried to incriminage his son... Ricard and Brad aren't that bad

anon12423452355...#268

I don't know who is more annoying the stan accounts or those who take a joking post too serious.

FromTheNorth#269

Speaking of Dan, I saw a few days ago, forget where, that there's a new rule in place where contestants aren't alowed to use eachother for body heat during the night. Funny how the whole Dan & Kellee thing was done on purpose but it blew up in their faces so badly that they have to make new rules and we lost Hatch on WaW, but at least they don't use the word guys anymore. Well done production

honestly this might be my last season, the guys thing was cringy but the whole nonsense with the butterflies almost made me turn it off mid episode. They just keep making the worst choices production wise .

jeff is killing this show to the core, I finally watched episode 2 and its alright or whatever but it just don't feel like survivor
