Survivor 41 Recap: There Will Be Blood

November 4, 2021 by tamaratattles 23 Comments

Survivor 41 RecapIt’s late and I am up fighting a rodent problem. I lost last night but I seem to be winning now. I just need one of y’all to come remove the bodies when the time comes. Any volunteers?  Yeah I know. My mama would have been able to do it. She used to hack up garden snakes with a hoe. You have to do what you have to do. My parents used to have a really large garden in the backyard when I grew up. I once saw a “slithering green onion” and my mama hacked up that thing so fast I barely knew what was happening. Tonight I am trying to draw on her strength. I’m just not sure how to dispose of the bodies even if I could do it.

So clearly I would suck at Survivor. I really want to know what Erica decides. And I am a drinking a wee bit. So bare with me on this one. Y’all know I try my best to get my names right. On the Project Runway recap someone accused me of being Anti-Asian because I mixed up the names on two Asian guys. Clearly they don’t know me or my lack of brain cells or inability to remember what name goes to what Survivor. Y’all are so much more patient with me. Okay, let’s see what happens!

Survivor 41 RecapThe First Individual Immunity Challenge

Okay so Xander, Naseer (MY FAVORITE PLAYER!) and Shan all have active idols now. It feels like a month since I have recapped this show and all I remember from last week is all the black people making The Cookout Alliance! I forget what they are calling it. But, fun fact, the Cookout Alliance that DOMINATED Big Brother this season was filmed AFTER Survivor aired (but before it was filmed.) Oh wow, Erica is miserable in the rain. Poor girl. I love her. I hope things go well.

At the individual immunity challenge, Erika is brought in first and Jeff grills her about her two days of solitude on a small island, one of them was in the rain. Erika tells the others that Jeff came and gave her the opportunity to go back in time and change the events of history. If she did that then, she could put her original tribe in jeopardy and save the losers. She smashed it. Good for her!  It sucks that Tiffany is still safe though. She was my favorite on paper. I think Naseer will be okay on this feet only challenge. Did I miss the part where they explained this foot only challenge? I feel like the editing really sucks this season. Evvie is in the lead. The guys are struggling. But Ricard wins immunity!

The Tribal Council Discussions

Naseer is going to be in danger! Everyone knows he could cook a seven course meal for Top Chef and light fire just by looking at it. Please don’t let him go home. I am already stressed enough for one  week!  Liana and Xander are the biggest threats at the moment. I don’t think the loser team will send Erika home.  Danny is pissed that life isn’t fair. He’s so cute but still. The guys seem to want Evvie out. Why? just because she almost won an immunity on a girl’s challenge? Save her for later!  I still don’t understand this game. There are twelve scrolls and two of them are safe? Can someone explain this production interference to me?

I feel like all the NEWLY “woke” shows due to politics want black winners for all their shows. That’s CBS trying to be fair. I don’t mind if you pack your shows with non white people. But if you are doing it to make yourself not look racist, it is not working. Now you are just doing things to make things worse. We need SO MUCH LESS PRODUCTION INFLUENCE an SO MUCH MORE RACIAL INCLUSION and just let what happens, happen. This season seems produced to have the same black alliance at the end as Big Brother did. I love when that happened. But now we know it was probably inorganic. Because this happened first.  Just let the winners win and stop acting like black, muslim, asian, or other non whites need your help! Just stop tipping it the white people for ratings!

Survivor 41 Recap

I Miss The Old Format And Am Confused

Moving on, Liana annoys the fuck out of me. Danny is pissed because he won immunity and lost it. I can’t remember if they called it the Melanin Alliance or I did. Wait what is Sidney doing there? Is she white?  I know it is the most awful thing in the world to say you don’t see race, but I was raised in Libya and there are a  few Nigerian people there who are very dark. There are white people there from the US who are very white. There were some Japanese people there who were very cute. I kind liked this boy  and he ate sushi for lunch everyday. I didn’t know it was sushi, but he did tell me it was seaweed. I was one of the few who talked to him. I was fascinated. He’s probably a kajillonaire by now.

It comes down to boys against the girls. The guy all want to get rid of Evvie. She’s “a threat”. No mam, you girls need to get rid of a strong guy (JUST NOT NASEER!) . Liana (THANKS FOR TALKING ABOUT EVVIE in the third person because the person who is supposed to do the chyron is apparently high somewhere. So the girls are going to take out their strongest player? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH WOMEN?  She’s on team female, she’s on team melanin! I’m rooting for Xander and Evvie. Evvie has tells Xander that Liana has advantages. She can ask if anyone has an idol or an advantage and they have to give it to her. So she gets him to give him the advantage.

Survivor 41 RecapThis Is Sofa King Complicated

Xander is telling Danny that she can take someone’s idol. This doesn’t matter at all because he is friends with a black person in the Melanin Alliance. Seriously, have they named it yet? So anyway, Danny goes to tell Liana that the Xander knows about her advantage. Look, this is too complicated for this old lady. Can we just do the normal things? I’m not able to follow all of this shit. Sorry. I probably won’t recap this anymore. It’s just too convoluted

Sydney is probably the winner because I have no idea who the fuck she is. It is tribal council. Xander plays his idol. It that thing? I thought you had to wait until after the vote. I guess he is just showing it . So Liana wants to play her advantage and take the idol away from Xander.  HAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAH Zander says he  says he only has a fake idol. ROFLMAO. Such a great move. Xander gave his extra vote and a fake idol to Tiffany. Xander is playing a great game. That means the plan to take Evvie out is over.

So who goes home?  Also, all the “groups” have broken off to chaos to decide who to send home. LOL. Everyone is in a dither and the “cookout” doesn’t know who to send home now. Everyone seems to be in  a dither. I have no idea what is going on. What I do no is my boyfriend, Naseer wasn’t included in any of the huddles. So I  hate everyone but my boyfriend Nassir and you do NOT WANT TO PLAY WITH ME RIGHT NOW!’  Sydney plays her shot in the dark… like that not  is total production. Tiffany wants to play her save and her team says it is not necessary. I’d rather go home than admit I could not do the challenges. I have to admit that Sydney did a great job.  I could have never. I know you guys want to knock her out but whatever happened to women in her fifties, exceeding?

    Oooh Liana got so played by Xander! She was crowing about how smart she was. It was a great moment for me after watching her tell everyone about her power then being surprised when it was played against her. Pfft. Loving this season even with all the confusing twists. It’s just a great show!

      It’s growing on me but I wish they would do away with the last minute conferences at tribal though. I LOVED how beautifully Xander played Liana, brilliant! Now I’m hoping precious Ricard goes next.

    I generally think of myself as pretty fearless and adventurous, but when I was confronted with a dead mouse on my kitchen floor I learned many humbling life lessons. It took me hours to scoop up the body and get it in the trash. Hours.

    Production is trying to appeal to younger viewers. It is working. My daughter told my son that he HAS to watch this. It was the BEST TRIBAL EVER!!!

    It absolutely was the best tribal EVER. Liana annoys me too! She is a fool. Why is she so anti yellow team? What did we miss that Liana immediately turned against all of them. Xander is the star of the show. He has been playing to win. Why isn’t anyone playing with Nassaer/ He would be in my alliance in a heart beat, just so I had food and knowing no one likes him, they would vote for me at the end. Did you notice that Desean also lost his extra vote? He voted twice for Evvie, and Sydney still lost. Sydney was hilarious in her scene at the end of the show. She doesn’t care if she comes off immature. The 50 year old white woman hasn’t said 2 words the entire season. I have struggled watching it every week because I need their names on the tv and it was just so confusing with all the new twists, but last night it was so exciting.

    TT, don’t bury the mouse because Banjo will dig it up. If it is close to a garbage day, put it in your outside trash can. If not, you don’t want the smell to bring other critters, take it to gas station and put it in their outside trash can.

      Liana said a week or two back that Xander “walks around like he is smarter than everyone…” and looks down on people. She despises him.

      I think she is insane and jealous. Cannot stand her nor Shan and her lame “song” in her head.”
      Shan is the one that thinks she is smarter than everyone!

    I am glad I am not the only one confused by some of the strategies they are forcing on this show, I am old too, and only half way watching most of the time, like I do on most shows.
    Xander shall no longer be underestimated! He is amazing, and I love what he did to Liana. I wish they had ended up voting her out.
    Anyone know what they are eating? Arent they practically starving to death? Why isnt any of the show focused on getting food?

      And why can’t they wear bathing suits instead of bra’s?

      I wish they wouldn’t let them get together in secret conversations at tribal. It would be more exciting to see who is voted out without all the side bars.

      I liked how they went back and showed Xander creating the fake idol and setting the plot because at the beginning I was screaming at him and Evvie for over sharing with Liana.

    Please don’t stop recapping Survivor, TT. I enjoy your take and excitement. That said, I agree with the frustration. Way too many ‘twists’ this season. It’s getting to the point where every episode is a brand new season since the rules shift each time. It was a great show from the original concept. Stop Messing With It!

    I rewatched the show today and still could not figure it all out. Then I read my recap and confused myself even more. The mice will return in less than two hours. There is actually still a body in the house behind a cabinet that would take a lot of effort to remove. He looks kind of fossilized and does not smell.

    Sorry about the mouse! They are REALLY creepy. Last night’s tribal was epic! Loved Xander’s brilliant game play! Sure did knock over-confident Liana down a peg or two. I’m in agreement with those who want to get rid of all the whispering at tribal. So annoying! Sydney’s last remarks were really sour grapes. Not a good look. At this moment, Nasseer and Xander are my top favorites. Gotta love Erica’s bold game play – you go, girl!

        😀

        I then went to read a magazine recap. The author said she was very confused as well.

        I wonder what production thinks seeing all the confusion. Or do they only care about the ratings?

    I sometimes think they shouldn’t be able to do all of the re-strategizing AT Tribal Counsel. I think it would be interesting to see them have to adjust on the fly without the chatter. Is it just me?

    Resident straggler chiming in….Please don’t stop recapping! I had to take 2 nights off after watching RHOBH reunion and watch when I was alert in the daylight so I just finished. I finally understand it now that we’re at the merge. Clearly going for a younger audience. I still can’t keep a lot of the names straight. WHY IS THERE NO CHYRON?!

    I’m with @Lawstangel and the Liana/Shan hate. Evvie & Xander’s tribal move was beautiful. I love Erica and so proud of her for making it alone in the rain. So glad she broke the hourglass but seriously, what survivor player wouldn’t?

    I don’t understand how Liana & Shan created such a bond after one walk with each other and not even on the same tribe. I was waiting for Liana to ask her one question of Shan since she was only one she knew for sure had an idol/advantage. She would’ve earned some respect & taken the snake Shan out with one swoop. Shan outed her advantage in front of Tiffany of all people. I would have been soooo mad about that. But, noooooo, we have to watch an hour of people scrambling, gossiping, (who says anything of importance around Tiffany?!), and then the ridiculous whisperfest at tribal. 🙄

    Me no like this new version of the show. CBS please just bring back old school Survivor. It was so much more organic and entertaining then. AND LESS CONFUSING. ( a good way to wipe out an entire demographic of loyal viewers)

    I’ll keep watching because I haven’t ever missed a season but I’m sick of people changing shit that wasn’t broken. Ughh. Love Xander.
