Text: I feel that a big part of this movie was really a love story! If you go into this thinking it’s mostly about “caving” then you may not like it as much as I did. The acting was very well done by everyone, especially the actor who played John (one stuck). Also, extremely well done as far as showing how John was stuck! There are many “visions” that John has while he is stuck that really help tell the story! I’m not one that normally likes “flashbacks” but believe me, without those it just couldn’t have been as great of a story! I highly recommend watching! – “The” Trainer Outdoor Training Specialist /Consultant- @62!/15 yr. Experience as RN in CCU.
Summary: Very well made, true story…

‘Survivor’ Survives 50 Seasons
The 50th season of “Survivor” premieres tonight on CBS with longtime host Jeff Probst, featuring 24 contestants—the largest cast in the show’s history—competing for the $1M prize. The “golden” season brings back original players and fan favorites to Fiji’s Mamanuca Islands.

“Survivor” first aired in 2000, with contestants stranded on a remote island competing in challenges while voting each other off to become the sole survivor. The show quickly became a cultural phenomenon, paving the way for reality TV programs like “The Amazing Race,” “Big Brother,” and “The Bachelor.” The show has since become gamified, with players trying to outwit and blindside their opponents. Over 50 million people tuned in to watch Richard Hatch claim the title of sole survivor in the first season finale (season 49 finale drew 4.45 million viewers).

Since its debut, “Survivor” has aired 714 episodes and specials across about 15 countries and crowned 49 winners.
