Wife and I were worn out from a month of insanity, and wanted a way to wind down together. We thought "Hey, we used to LOVE the show Survivor! Let's check it out!"
So we sign up for Paramount+ to get our Survivor on!
Didn't even make it through the first episode. First off like a 3rd of the people are "Medical personnel" in some way shape or form so you know that means they are going to play up the clot shot.
Then they have multiple queer/gay characters which is not all that surprising, but this one guy has his sob story about missing his adopted daughter while his transgender pregnant husband works full-time.
Then the host asks "for 20 years, i've been saying 'come on in guys' is it time to retire that because of the word guys?" And the answer is YES!
The guy who said yes we should drop the word "guys" is like "survivor has changed so much in twenty years, now theres black and brown and LGBT people playing..." LITERALLY THE FIRST WINNER OF SURVIVOR WAS GAY!
I just...
We didn't finish the episode and cancelled paramount plus.
I was an avid watcher of Survivor. I stopped watching after the first episode of this years broadcast because of the same things you pointed out. Get woke go broke!
yeah ive watched every season. this season got off to a bad start with all that shit. a bit into the season their is a "racial learning moment" that went on forever. I watch it with my mom and didnt have it in my heart to stop after watching the first episode. done with it after this season though.
