This pretty much sums up what the lying #MeToo movement was.

In this environment it’s stupid for a man to touch any woman who isn’t his wife or has initiated contact first.

i don’t understand “winning edits” or “winning by the edit” at at all, what are you talking about?

To spark ratings, producers will portray some people as nice and others as villains so the audience develops a rooting interest.

They will selectively edit scenes that may highlight that storyline. Whether staged or just creative editing, it helps to sell the show.

I really detest people who admit to having ever watched Survivor, but want to make themselves sound so superior but dissing people who play the game or who watch the game. Of all the “reality” shows, and there are NO reality programs, not even the News, Survivor has proven to be the most honest of them all.

IF that is the case then I'd sue CBS and the girl for defamation of character.

I am glad I have neither the time nor the interest for that stuff.

Dumbest damned show on TV.

Except maybe for Big Brother...or Dancing with the Stars...or Masked Singer...or, aw hell, all that crap sucks.

Just my opinion, don't care if anyone likes it or not.

Fixed that for you. That ship has sailed too.

The liberals are taking us right back to puritan days (or Islamic sharia). Unintended consequences.

“I think production and Jeff milked it for all it was worth.”

I’ll go a step further... Jeff & the showrunners set the whole damn thing up. It backfired only because the other ‘target’ who was also the instigator, was too stupid to play 1 of the 2 immunity idols that she had. And she knew that she was going to pull at least a few votes.

LOL! I watch it every week because, well, the wife loves it! You can see the manipulation of the audience by the show producers. You just know that they are reviewing the Q-scores of the players and trimming the game strategy to preserve certain players to the end. It’s really obvious on “Amazing Race”. If you have a high-enough Q-score and have a bad round — guess what? It isn’t an “elimination round”! Hey-hey, live to play another day!
