Episode 4 Review: This is a fun-filled episode packed with Bhanu’s emotional outbursts and with a predictable straight-forward ending.
First, the Reward Challenge was separated from Immunity Challenge. I miss a format like this in more than an hour-long show. Watching it felt like the show was coming home to its roots.
Second was Hunter. This dude could ace any physical challenge thrown at him. When Hunter plays, it means Nami would win. No further questions asked.
In camp life, however, I could not help but wonder why Hunter was edited as the quiet one. He rarely talks.
In Siga (Green Tribe), an early favorite of mine Jem was a stand-out. She was playing the social part of the game with a level of enthusiasm that was rarely found on others.
Maria was likeable but was too hard for herself, which was understandable.
I saw her pre-season interview and I observed how competitive she was outside the game.
This was also the first time I got to see how competitive Tim was. During the Immunity Challenge, he was the one who brought his tribe to victory.
Yanu (Purple Tribe) once again stole the rest of the show by being the loser. Q did everything he could to shoot those balls on floating basketball hoops. Still, it was not enough.
When Jeff Probst met the remaining Yanu at the Tribal Council, he correctly assumed Q, Tiffay and Kenzie were targeting Bhanu.
After an emotional sharing of his personal life, Bhanu was automatically eliminated due to his inability to vote nor play his Shot In The Dark. 3 stars of 5, SO-SO.
Lesson Learned: “In Survivor, your job is to play as hard as you can, but it’s okay to have fun while doing it.” – JEM
