Worth Playing For

Oops All Winners is off to the races! This is another jam-packed episode with some brilliant game play (Boston Rob, Adam) and some not so brilliant game play (Ben, Danni). Also Tony almost dies trying to outshine Yul. We're loving every second of it.

Recap of Survivor season 40, episode 2.

SEASON 40 IS HERE, BAYBEEEE. Wow, what a premiere episode. This game is already operating at an 11, and WE. ARE. HERE. FOR. IT. We got Sandra sewing chaos, Boston Rob being a mob boss with his new right hand Parvati(!) by his side, Wendell calling people out, newer winners being out of their depth, and Yul being everything we ever wanted and more. THIS IS ONLY EPISODE ONE, OMGGGGG.

Recap of Survivor season 40, episode 1.

WE ARE SO CLOSE WE CAN TASTE IT. Season 40 is just a few short days away, so we break down what we know: the game play twists, every player who's on the island, our picks to win. We can barely contain our excitement. Also, this episode is hella long, and we are sorry for that.

Preview of Survivor season 40: Winners at War.

It's still the offseason, so we got another installment of Sparkling Conversations! Lauren and Kyel talk a lot about their alcoholic preferences, particularly their college days and Lauren's love of Malibu and pineapple. Also, Kyel plans on becoming a Wine Guy™ when he turns 30.

Happy offseason! Have y'all seen Cats yet? WHAT?! YOU HAVEN'T! WELL GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW. And then come back and hear us talk about what is truly the most transcendent film we've ever experienced. We are changed humans. Only a few short weeks and Season 40, OOPS ALL WINNERS will be upon us! We can hardly wait to guzzle it down, like a bowl of fresh milk being licked up by Sir Ian McKellen. Alright, that was our last Cats reference. Maybe. Also, Meghan Fitzmartin, go see Cats please.

Finale time! I think we can agree with everyone we're all glad this season is finally over. Some silliness ensues and more of our favorites go home so we're left with a pretty... underwhelming finale three. At least it's only 2ish months until season 40!

Recap of Survivor season 39 finale and reunion.

Another week, another episode of Survivor, and an another controversy with this season... le sigh. We deal with that first before getting into the rest of the episode, including some classic Deanny Phantom moments, and Elaine just being our favorite, as usual. Next week's the finale, we're ready for this season to be over. Which is a real shame.

Recap of Survivor season 39, episode 12.

Some weeks, Survivor is really predictable. But that has not been this season AT ALL. And this episode is no exception. We got family day, betrayals, a live tribal, and some of the crazy spin outs we've since Jeremy.

Recap of Survivor season 39, episode 11.

Short, segmented episode this week, as the crew is traveling. But a good episode to recap! Lauren 3 is taking over the game and some other people make questionable moves. Plus, a big idol drop at tribal.

Recap of Survivor season 39, episode 10.

Back to more traditional Survivor this week, which we think everyone can be grateful for. Some big moves are made and it's a double elimination! Plus, someone goes from goat to powerful wild card.
