The Merge Feast

What would have happened if Ori's Shot in the Dark play worked? Should the Shot in the Dark be tweaked to give the players better odds? What players have the best chance to win Survivor 51 right now? Was the Summit advantage worth it? We give our thoughts on how the Open Era is going so far.

Did we just witness the move of the season? Would you have gone to rocks if you were in the Dina tribe's situation? We get into how we think the game will move forward after a historic tribal council.

We had our first tribe swap of the season this week. How cool would it have been to have 17 players on the same beach though? What new tribe has the edge moving forward and who is in trouble? The ending of the immunity challenge might have been controversial. We get into why. This season is finally starting to gain momentum, this tribe swap came at a great time. As always, we end with our picks for Survivor of the Week!

We obviously have to start by publicly shaming the quitter. The mutiny twist was completely chaotic and ended in hilarious fashion, but did it all work out for the best? The great equalizer strikes again in the challenge. What are our feelings towards the Open Era so far? We didn't get a chance to discuss the Big Brother 28 finale last week. We have not been this happy about a winner of a show in a long time! Congrats to Devens!

Survivor is in full swing now! This had to be one of the weirdest episodes of Survivor we've seen. We were not prepared to see someone's thumb the way that Brady's was today. So, between that and Rob trying to vote himself off, we got to see a lot of firsts on this episode. We're still trying to get a good read on this cast but a couple players are standing out. Big Brother finale is tonight! We make our predictions to how it will go down and we'll talk early Traitors and what players are or aren't doing well in the castle. Looking at you, Jay!

Survivor is back! The Open Era has arrived, the game was chaotic from the jump. Permanent uncertainty was the theme of the day, and it delivered on that promise. We'll get into our thoughts on the new format, what players stood out and try to understand what is going on with this season. All we know is, we like what we're seeing so far. Big Brother is getting down to the wire, we get caught up on the Egyptian Eviction and who we think has the best chance to actually win the game. A new season of Traitors is underway with non-celebrities. We think we like it, early season Traitors can be a little rough at times, but at least we have some drama.

Big Brother is getting crazy! The icons are still running the house! With that, we're wondering what makes an iconic player. We take a look ahead to the Survivor 51 cast and discuss what they can do to become the next icon in reality tv. The fall lineup is getting busy with Survivor and Traitors starting and Big Brother finale around the corner.

We're Back! Big Brother is heating up this week. This veto comp was unhinged! We try to make sense of the drama from the nominations ceremony. Is it that big of a deal if people know you want to target them? Survivor 51 cast dropped! We'll take a glance at the players and look forward to another draft in the future. We're about to have a very busy September with all of the reality shows coming back.
