Survivor (CBS) TV Show • Page 23

Thank god Sandra is gone, although I don't think anyone thought she would make it that far. No one would vote her for a 3x winner in the end

 

This is confirmed to be happening tomorrow night at Tribal Council. Varner says something outing Zeke.

Spoilers about this are coming from non-Survivor friends of Varner, who are putting it out there to spoiler communities because they're legitimately concerned about his mental health (which apparently after the season filmed was bad enough to the point that CBS was involved in getting him help) when there's backlash over it.

Best-case scenario seems to be his friends are exaggerating how bad the actual event is/how it will be presented so that there's not a strong backlash.

 

I'm extremely worried for this whole thing

 

FWIW there's apparently no ill feelings between Varner/Zeke or any of the cast (at least, as a result of this specifically). So it's really just the public reaction that there's concern over, to the point that CBS is warning him to stay off the internet/social media. And if you look at his Twitter, he's RT'd a lot of pro-trans stuff and has an (implicitly) pro-trans bio.

 

Russell Hantz (who in his classic bitterness has been tweeting spoilers all season) said in the past that the comment is along the lines of "you want to be a boy, I'll treat you like one"

sounds like it doesn't hurt his game the way Varner intended so that's great.


Unrelated news: tonight's the last tribal before the merge!

 

the bigger problem is going to be the vitriol on both sides of this.

 

Varner's twitter is a bit rough to read right now, I hope everyone's ok

 

Eek

 

Well that person on Reddit months ago nailed it about zeke

 

this fucking edit rn

 

This is paining me to watch knowing what about to happen

 

Well that's fucked up

 

this would have been a million times better than what he actually said holy shit

(still would have been terrible though)

 

endgame spoilers

that winner's edit moment from sarah

 

FUCK. I'm an idiot and I accidentally scrolled over that spoiler.

 

Honestly I think we should keep those kind of spoilers out of here. I half saw it too.

 

It sucks but It was clearly warned so I'm not mad. I just had my cursor in a bad spot when I scrolled down.

I always wanna talk about big brother spoilers so I know how much it sucks not being able to share with the other people here.

It'd be nice if you had to specifically click to unlock a spoiler though.

 

I only clicked it out of habit because we usually put spoilers on night of discussion. It was clearly labeled tho. Didn't gather the whole thing but putting 2+2 together. I just don't get why anyone would want to know spoilers for a show like this. Something like TWD or GOT I get but idk

 

Spoiler doesn't have to be true though, last season all the winner spoilers were wrong. Edgic or whatever they call it is not an exact science at all

 

Wow.. what an episode.

 

Zeke wrote a great article about everything.
