He seems so happy and kind. Love Jeff.

I remember the first season when they filmed at my hometown of Sabah. I was a very young kid then and its amazing they're still going

Why is Jeff being so over the top excited? Makes me think this season will suck. He doesn’t know what else we can change moving forward? New beaches in Fiji please Jeff (if that’s where we’re staying for good), more personal final tribals with individual questions from jurors, returnee seasons, 39 days, I can name a few

[@jiro110]

Jeff's always been this over the top ever since 41, but I agree with everything listed.

[@Ryan_Tiziano]

@@jiro110 don’t want to be negative as I have been in the new era (after seeing this budget version of Survivor) but let’s hope I’m wrong for 45

Damn i love Jeff hes a legend, but his age is really showing these days. And Jeff stop telling that sttupid Cirie story, we've heard it a million times and its not that impressive, she just walked across a balance beam... like cmon lets stop the virtue signaling.

I'd like to see a season where players are rewarded for honesty. Having to lie and deceive is so distasteful. I don't want my kids thinking that's an ok way to live life. I think we can do better.

worst take maybe ever, watch micronesia, heroes v villains, cagayan, winners at war, china, cook islands, or david vs. goliath, those are great seasons. Borneo was a personal favorite of mine, I think these seasons rival its quality. if you haven't, maybe give those a try, idk anyone who doesn't like them.

[@l_ifeefi_l1998]

Survivor now is boring to watch. Too political and woke. I think last I watched was 3 seasons ago. I still rmbr its heydays with the old school players. They were chosen not bcoz of their skin colors or sexual preferences. Now everything is too rational, methodical and experimental and capricious with sudden unknown advantage that could upend the whole game. Totally devoid of human emotions and feelings that make watching this show fun

[@henrikjaeger3829]

Survivor has become boring, cheesy woke propaganda, rigged by the producers. Almost nothing depends on the players anymore - just like in the last seasons of Big Brother.
