“Survivor 51” Recap: ‘Load the Ark, Two by Two’

HOLLYWOOD—There was a blindside last week, or was it really on “Survivor 51.” I think a true blindside is when everyone is stunned with the result. Think of John getting the boot in ‘David v. Goliath’ no one knew that was coming, I even screamed at the TV when that happened. This week’s episode, ‘Load the Ark, Two by Two’ is proof that “Survivor” sometimes shoots itself in the foot with its twists. Why? Something from “Survivor 50” showed up this season by placing the contestants in pairs, and as a result not a single player would be voted out by the end of the episode, two players or a pair would be voted out. The episode kicked off with members of Tovuto discussing the votes at Tribal Council, with Eric reeling from his votes, while Mike gloated about his big move to take out Brady, but still realizing he is now the #1 target. No one would speak up owning their votes. Thien An are you Maggie’s minion?
