Do they have time to discuss things in between the votes?

Excluding twists, I would say usually 6 hours to half a day.

How long does tribe vs. tribe vs. tribe last?

Depends. If they are planning a tribe shuffle (dismantling the tribes and creating them again), 3 more eliminations. With or without it, at least 1 elimination, since they usually want the numbers to be even when they go back to the 2 tribe system meaning they randomly draw rocks or color bullet thingys or do a schoolyard pick and determine the rosters of two new tribes, meaning three tribes will become two.

How do the competitions work when that ends?

Two tribes battle against each other for rewards and/or immunity. The winner gets a reward/win immunity and the losers lose reward/lose immunity and have to go to the tribal council to vote someone out.

The tribes usually merge (become one tribe) when 9-12 contestants are left in the game.
After that you win and lose the rewards (the winner however can bring 1-3 people along with him/her to enjoy the reward) and immunities individually.

I know Survivor has a jury too but how does it compare to the BB one / how many are in it?

Not much difference, except the questioning is a longer and there are three instead of two to question.

After the jury stage begins, and the jurors begin to get voted of, The jurors go to a Ponderosa, a production camp complex, which is located somewhere in the same region. After they have come to terms with the loss and themselves after the competition, they get weighed, then they get escorted to their rooms where they can clean themselves and rest afterwards. Then they eat, talk with crew or talk/fight the other jurors and then hang out and rest until it´s time to go and attend the next tribal.

In Survivor, the jury members attend every tribal after the jury stage has begun and "gather information" for the final tribal.

I've heard a lot about the immunity idol(s) but how many in a season and how exactly do they work?

I know it basically saves them but then what happens after that if they were supposed to go.. next highest number of votes is out?

Since they were introduced usually 2-4 per season at the start and one on each camp. Usual rule is when an idol is being used it gets a new one gets hidden for someone else (very often nowadays it´s the same guy/girl though)

When you find an idol, you can make yourself or somebody you want immune, before the votes are announced. (There has however been an idol that made it possible to make yourself or someone else immune ie: null your votes after the votes were announced.)

You´re correct, if you succeed in using the idol, ie: you predicted correctly that you were the target and got the most amount of votes, the next one with highest amount of votes gets voted out.

Ok I have a better idea of it now, thanks MB. EDIT: Calderyon too. Not sure if I like it or not yet.

I did say I got bored of the show already during the premiere episode but now I'm looking forward to watching what happens next. I haven't tried watching Survivor in a while and the last time I did I didn't really know what was going on. It's more simple than Big Brother really so maybe I'll get into it if this is a good season.

If you like Big Brother you should probably like Survivor. I love both shows but do prefer Survivor. It's similar concepts really just ones in a house and the other is on a beach.

They vote right after the tie has been seen, they can how talk if they want or signal for who to vote for there is no rules against this, this is for all votes, in a few season they have said right before the vote to there tribe vote this person.

It was pretty misogynist when that trailer-trash referred to her as that yet in the same breath called the other guy by his name. You know her name, asswipe.

Welp you were the one who brought it up.

Rewatched the premiere and my thoughts didn't really change too much. Beauty is my fave tribe rn, I hate Brawn especially that the only person I liked just got voted out, and Brain is really boring except for Debbie. My rewatch really did Aubry some good because I was sleeping on her during the live airing but I liked her a lot more the second time around. I still think Alecia was pretty boring for someone so pivotal this episode.

Darnell also had a really good exit interview with Parade if anyone's intersted: http://parade.com/458453/joshwigler/...nell-hamilton/

Kyle is thought to be one of the bullies mentioned pre-season, his wife trying to reflect the backlash

He is annoying and dumb.

Alecia didnt mind that she is not as shallow as other think

Probst on episode 4:

Spoiler:

"One of the most compelling episodes we've ever done, just in terms of truly being scary and wondering what's going to happen. And we break the walls down and let you see the truth, and see sort of behind the scenes of what happens if chaos strikes. And you'll also be reminded that we're really good in emergency situations and that people are safe."

I wonder if He even knows what the word compelling stands for anymore when he says it... He has used it to describe just about everything over the years
