Since the age of COVID,Survivorhas altered how they do the reunion following the finale.

ForSurvivor’s 40th season, it was all done via Zoom call.

Its an unfortunate and unfair situation.

Now that were in the clear,why not have a special reunion episode taped following the finale?

The fans want to hear from the players who left early.

It almost feels disrespectful that, in theNew Era ofSurvivor,the early boots do not experience the fullSurvivorjourney.

Once their torch is snuffed, their journey is essentially over.

It’s up to them to optimize their profile beyond the show.

Let’s start withSurvivor 41.

This conversation could have been an important topic to cover in a reunion setting.

Jeff Probst wants ‘Survivor 50’ to be fun.

The fans are not feeling that decision.

A reality show where a group of contestants are stranded in a remote location with little more than the clothes on their back. The lone survivor of this contest takes home a million dollars.

Between quits and botched challenges, the story was about these individuals.

Yet, once they were gone, their story was too.

We, as viewers, spent weeks watching this trainwreck and never had it wrapped up in aSurvivorbow.

And yet, nada.

His journey ended just shy of the jury.

Yeah, well,Jon Lovett’s single episode ofSurvivordeserved a second.

Reality TV

He, too, would have earned a segment with Jeff during the reunion.

The list goes on and on.

It’s not fun,nor is it the trueSurvivorexperience.

Many classicSurvivormechanics need to make a return.

All signs point to no.

All seasons ofSurvivorare available to stream on Paramount+.
