So now that we only have four episodes left, what are our thoughts on this season so far? I think it's..... solidly okay. I don't think it's great (even good might be a bit of a stretch), but it's definitely watchable. The production values are similar to Cambodia and MvGX which is definitely annoying, but the editing is muuuuch better so it's making the whole thing bearable. Alliances are still appearing out of thin air and it's annoying (like, the show never did anything to explain Andrea and Cirie apparently being super close, and Brad and Sierra went from having like one or two scenes together pre-merge to suddenly being a two-headed tyrannical dragon ruling this game with an iron fist), but the edit is actually focusing on characterization as opposed to focusing solely on gameplay, strategy, and BIG MOVEZ!!! And just about everyone's had their moments to shine, which is nice. Troyzan's really the only one who it feels like he's pretty much been written off the show. Even Andrea and Aubry have had some moments in spite of their abysmal edits.
