So in case you didn’t know, Kentucky state Rep. Nick Wilson, a Republican from Williamsburg who also happened to be the winner of Survivor: David vs. Goliath, is sponsoring a bill that would let you have sex with your first cousin without it technically legally being incest.

🪶 season has *ever* had everyone receive a confessional in episode 2--the *only* episode to have that distinction. Until now!

🪶 has reversed the curse!
Survivor Finale Day is always exciting, but I don't want to forget the castaways we've lost--2 in just the last 5 weeks.
Sunday Burquest, Dan Kay, Rudy Boesch, Ashley Massaro, B.B. Andersen, Caleb Bankston, Angie Jakusz, Cliff Robinson, Ralph Kiser, Jenn Lyon, Clay Jordan.

I've watched the first several minutes of the Borneo premiere countless times, including every May 31st, on

's anniversary. Until now, I've never questioned why Sue Hawk is introduced as a truck driver but shown wearing a hardhat.

There's a logical-sounding argument to only cast Survivor with strategy-minded fans. Keith showed differently. He brought humor and heart--he brought humanity. So quotable & also kind enough to offer his spot to a single mother after he'd reached the finale.
Happy birthday to the great Kelley Wentworth from Survivor San Juan del Sur, Cambodia & Edge of Extinction. Hope you have a great day!

20 years ago tonight,

US: All-Stars premiered after

XXXVIII!
The stars really were out, because it didn't begin until 10:58pm Eastern! 🌟🌟🌟
For reference of time...
#Survivor
premiered in May 2000.
Eight years later, Parvati won. Switch to HD.
Eight years later, Michele won. Move to Fiji.
Eight years later, Kenzie won.

was announced as the winner of Survivor: Africa, all while the audience was (at least, attempted to be) led to believe everyone was still out in Kenya.

If you're keeping score at home...
Jaime and Lauren each cast their first vote tonight.
Matt still haven't voted.
Bruce, Claire, and Matthew never voted.
Both Maddy and Sara had their only vote negated.
Tonight, we saw moments of simple human interaction. They not only make
#Survivor
better, I argue filling the show with them will allow for a more relaxed pacing that makes the shortened season days less noticeable.

16 years ago tonight,
#Survivor
's unofficial sister show,
#PirateMaster
🏴☠️, premiered.
It won the Emmy for "Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music" (theme song). That was composed by Russ Landau, who also composed TWO completely different Survivor theme songs!
#Survivor44
Recap
-Lauren got the "bank your vote" advantage.
-Carolyn found an idol.
-Matt got into a showmance and spent too much time alone with Frannie.
-Jaime found a fake idol.

@AMikeBloomType
Looking at it by old tribal membership, Kaleb and Sean are in the least enviable positions while Emily is in the most enviable (for one vote, anyway)...all for being the only Lulu.

Anyone else ever think about how 30 people have been on 3+

@SurvivorPenner
is the only one to not be on a full all-star season?
That's bollocks, and you know it!
(I guess they figure he's star enough.)
Every time I rewatch Micronesia: Fans vs Favourites, I keep hoping that
@SurvivorPenner
will continue in the game and win it … I love me some Parvati but every season with Penner I am rooting for him!! Looking for a 4th kick at the can for him!?!

By my count and color classification (simplified to these nine colors), this is how many times each color has been used for a tribe on

US:
🔵x 28
🟡x 24
🟢x 23
🔴x 22
🟠x 20
⚫️x 16

🧠x 2

Also of note, about 9th overall (in adults the 18-49 demo)? **SEVEN** of the top 8 are regular sports broadcasts. That means
#Survivor
was the
#2
actual TV show in A18-49.
Survivor was the the top rated reality show for adults 18-49 for the 2022/2023 prime time broadcast season, the 9th overall for all TV and CBS's top rated show. It was the also third most watched reality show behind The Voice and American Idol with an average of 6.71M viewers.
My theory is that rumored billionaire, Liz Wilcox, used her money to create a clone of herself. "Mo" is actually short for "More." Being the ethical billionaire Liz is, she let Mo live her own life. But, being a clone, Mo also had the drive to be on

There seems to be an assumption to your comfort wouldn't be of value to others. That may sometimes be the case, but I hope you can remind that voice in your head that your comfort is not always in conflict with others--and even if it is, I wish you well on prioritizing it anyway.
Happy Birthday to

What if

Based on your votes, and limited to those making their first return, THIS would be your cast:
@DavidBloomberg
@JeffProbst
Oh, and what would you propose, David? That we see the castaways and their interactions? Then we wouldn't have time for a random key hunt! Then someone wouldn't be forced to potentially sway a vote they were told they'd have no say in! Is this the
#Survivor
you want??
In the 12
#Survivor
US three-tribe seasons, half of the winners came from the tribe that lost a member first, and the other half came from the tribe that lost a member last.
Even on
#SurvivorAU
and
#SurvivorSA
, the winner's never come from the second tribe to lose a member.
