1) 4 2) 4 3) 5 4) I enjoy writing critiques of shows or reviews so this was not a particularly painful process for me. I attempted to delve into the chapter content while not trying to totally regurgitate the plot of each episode. I believe I did well at making connections between the show…
After last weeks surprising blind side elimination of Jeremy, this weeks show had a lot to live up to. It has become very apparent that an alliance means nothing from day to day. One day you can be best friends the next you are leading a revolt agaisnt your best friend. This week was noticeable…
This weeks episode was a full on display on how leadership can affect a group. The two dueling “leaders” Josh and Jeremy squared off in a decisive week of the show. Survivor went out of its way to really promote the showdown between the leader of both alliances. Every plot line of the episode revolved…
The long awaited tribal merging has arrived. New alliances were formed and new twists in the game developed. Really though nothing major happened.

When the new tribes were assembled you could see very quickly how the new disbursement of group members were affecting people. The new tribe members quickly attempted to assimilate into a collective in time for…
I swear, just last week I thought John Rocker displayed the heights of stupidity. Boy was I wrong. Could the people on this show be any dumber? The genius that is Drew was on full display this week. I can understand fixing a challenge when there is an overarching plan behind the curtain. Had Drew…
This week on survivor the infamous John Rocker showed how one group member can disrupt a tribe. Before I get into a few of the member roles that I noticed I want to quickly rant about how terrible of a strategy Mr. Rocker employed. The blond girl in his group pretty clearly stated during the…
The first two weeks of survivor clearly demonstrated how important the process of group development was. The first two proponents of group development were front and center. The forming stage and the primary tension stage are what led to the first two contestants getting voted off of the show. The first contestant Nadiya was voted…
