#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains - Ah, Rites of Passage with four Villains! A whole lot of "Oh yeah, they were on this season, huh?"

#Survivor Heroes vs Villains - POV: You have switched over to Rupert: Dark Mode.

#Survivor Heroes vs Villains 🤝 Space X crashing a rocket into the moon: "OMG! The moon is on fire!"

#Survivor Heroes vs Villains Rupert, S7: "So much for my dreams" Rupert, S20: "So much for everyone else's dreams!"

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: Idols expiring at Final 6 when there was still an F5 AND an F4 vote is wild. Dear Survivor press: Can someone please ask Probst why it was okay to force players to strategize and work the social game for two votes in 2010, but that's unthinkable now?

#Survivor Heroes vs Villains: We all remember Colby yelling at his brother Reid. But what if he'd just paid better attention to the treemail that told him to be optimistic? Really makes you think.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: Making up for very little of Sandra in the pre-merge by sneaking her into every shot in Episode 12.

Correction: Courtney was allowed to point and laugh at Hantz for misplaying his idol. I guess that's a decent compromise. #Survivor Heroes vs. Villains

#Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains - You mean to tell me they brought in The Dragonz to this Tribal and they weren't allowed to perform? Seems like a waste.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: Sadly, Danielle's efforts to get "Punkin BUTT" on the show were less successful than Candice's with John.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: I also enjoyed this map the Villains received when they were told to merge. Like, "Hey Villains, you could have just been stealing stuff from the Heroes camp this whole time."

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains, Ep10: Future Survivor John Cody getting a shoutout on Candice's arm at the merge Tribal.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: I just now realized the post-James boot Heroes tribe is the same story as the Aitu Four: Plucky underdogs, winning their way to a very delayed merge, as people from the other tribe start becoming jurors. Candice got to undo her mutiny! If only JT hadn't screwed it up.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains, Ep8: Stable genius Russell Hantz, who did this exact challenge a month earlier, looks past the words "challenge," "strike," and "strike" again in the treemail, and is convinced the Villains have made it to the merge.

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: It's a brawl! Throw them both out!

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: We all (?) remember Cochran's throne confessional, but I had completely forgotten Parvati's. This is art.

#Survivor I had forgotten the "Knights of the Round Table" title quote was in reference to a Coach-Russell thing in HvsV. Which means when we were forced to watch Coach knighting Joe and Colby in S50, it was a Hantz reference. 🤮

CBS rerunning #Survivor50 this summer is ... weird? But not as weird as the sometimes 1, 2, or 3 episodes per week scheduling. I assume this means #Survivor51 starts 9/16 or 9/23: www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2026/07...

#Survivor Heroes vs. Villains: Courtney with the perfect reaction to the news Stephenie was voted out.

#Survivor I guess what I'm saying is: Tiffany should not have consented to video review taking away her win.

#Survivor Heroes vs Villains Ep3 IC, "Sumo'an Mud" - Coach beats Rupert for what appears the Villains' first point, but Probst demands a do-over because Coach only had one hand on his bag. In the do-over, Rupert shoves Coach to the edge then throws the bag at him. No hands on the bag. Point stands.

#Survivor So I'm rewatching Heroes vs. Villains, and did nobody tell Russell "It's a final three, dumbass."? (He's had like six confessionals in the first third of Ep1 and I'm already sick of him.)

When #Survivor does get around to another Blood vs Water season, I hope they give So & Doo Kim a second chance. Mainly so that every preview can use the title “We are So back,” but also because fairness or whatever.

She is not!

Belated congrats to #Survivor51 contestant Aaliyah Puglia for having the first name alphabetically (by first name), sneaking in ahead of the Aarons. (Unless she goes by a nickname on the show, which would be unwise.)

#Survivor50: the pregame "Zoom alliance" dominates fan chatter throughout the season. Jeff Probst at the reunion: "Oh yeah? I have my own Zoom alliance!"

#Survivor50 How much better is the season if Joe just picks his buddy Jonathan for the Ep9 (One in the Urn) journey?

#Survivor50 Across two seasons, Joe has now voted correctly 18 out of 20 times, has received just one vote against him, has won six individual ICs (plus a necklace), reached the F3 both times ... and received just 1/19 possible jury votes. It's kind of incredible. He's a modern-day Amanda Kimmel.

#Survivor50 As a fandom, I feel like maybe we failed in not universally hailing Aubry's win as moxie finally prevailing.
