Survivor: Game Changers — Mamanuca Islands
Multiple links in body of thread | February 9, 2017

Posted on 02/09/2017 2:41:00 PM PST by EveningStar

Survivor: Game Changers — Mamanuca Islands is the 34th season of Survivor (for those unfamiliar with the show, there are two seasons each year). It begins Wednesday, March 8, 2017 on CBS at 8/7c with a special two hour episode.

Wikipedia article


There will be twenty returning players divided into two tribes of ten players each. The "Game Changers" theme as with some past themes, is of course utterly contrived. Apparently the original plan called for three teams consisting of (1) winners, (2) those who made the jury, and (3) those who were booted prior to making the jury. The plan fell through when the producers couldn't get enough winners to return.

Twelve cast members will be playing for a second time, six for a third time, and two for a fourth time.

Season preview


As with last season, this season will be held in the Mamanuca Islands, Fiji. It will consist of 20 returning players.

The players range in age from 25 to 54. There are 4 from California, two each from Florida, New York, and North Carolina, and one each from Alabama, Connecticut, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Utah.

Of course CBS wanted young good looking people. For Neilsen ratings. The advertisers are the network’s customers. Only way we can continue to have more seasons is if those Neilsen families watch.

Part of my time with Nelsen was spent working with CBS setting up the technology for their new Television City audience testing facility at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Survivor was one of the programs CBS heavily tested there to see which endings/scenarios played best with the audiences so they could decide what to air. Got to attend a couple of Survivor parties with the execs and actors... it was a fun project for sure (but a high-paced, stressful project for sure).

Here's my very amateurish 2 minute video clip showing some of the testing facility and technology soon after we went live with the place:

Drones follow 10 people in Stranded and offers to sell you supplies and 1000s of dollars. Strategy is to delay purchases to force weaker people out. There will be ten locations with $100,000 each. Drones follow you to record and make deliveries the majority orders.

If Sandra isn’t booted the first time Mana tribe goes to tribal council, then none of them deserve to win this season.

I agree with you 100%!!!

Jeff, Tai, and Zeke this season. That’s only 3 out of 20. Is that too much for you? You can always forget their sexuality and enjoy the show, you know.

Sorry, one is too much when the agenda is normalized and and front and center in talks that have nothing to do with the show. Hubby feels the same way.
