Survivor Recap: Wobble, Wobble


The 90-minute format doesn’t suit episodes in which the vote feels inevitable.

Sue and Caroline have been cut loose now that Gabe is gone; Teeny is still reeling from the loss of Sol and the betrayal of Genevieve; Andy has been discounted from the very beginning, when he had a fit of the vapors at the first immunity challenge; and Rachel has been adrift since losing Sierra and Anika on the yellow tribe. They decide that it can be the five of them against the three they see as threats: Kyle, who has been winning challenges like he’s Super Mario and has an all-you-can-eat buffet of stars; Genevieve, who is so crafty that she could make a dream catcher while voting everyone out; and Sam, who, I don’t know, is young and fit, so they’re worried about him for some unfounded reason. If he somehow managed a record-setting sixth win and made it to the finale, he would just say, “Well, I was good at challenges,” and I don’t think any jury in the new era would cut him the check just based on that.
