This week brings the start of Survivor 2014 with a Wednesday night premiere featuring a two-hour episode and lots of fun from what Jeff Probst is telling us with the ‘Inside Look’ preview.
Jeff is here to break down the premiere, like he did with the cast review, and we’re immediately reminded why Spencer is going to be very annoying.
As always we have an arrival scene with Survivor and this year they went with the mind games approach. Production brought in the Brains tribe on a helicopter, the Beauty tribe on a boat, and the Brawn tribe by truck. Jeff says this immediately got each tribe wondering why the other got a “better” arrival and in the clips they show it seems some were miffed.
Jeff points out another interesting angle of the season. With three tribes there just aren’t enough players to control the game after the tribes merge. This should make things even more difficult and force the tribes to start working together and plotting whether they want to or not.
We’re just a few days away from the Survivor premiere on Wednesday night at 8PM ET/PT on CBS. We’ll be back all season doing live recaps, sharing updates, discussing the game, and looking for spoilers so join us for the fun!
