Survivor 43 Scoop – Week 1 Recap: Winners, Losers, Top Moments

John Powell – GlobalTV.com

Do you feel it? For me, Survivor has a different energy this year. It’s definitely more distinctive than the last two seasons and I think it’s more than finally being free from the physical and mental limitations of the COVID era. It’s more than that grateful sigh of relief that we’ve all experienced in our own lives.

Some of this new vibe borrows from Survivor Australia’s format to some degree, like the short but informative bios that give you some background on the castaways and their lives back home, as well as the more kinetic tone of events.

As for the bios, I particularly sympathized with Jesse Lopez. Not because I was in a gang or anything. It could have been me, but I choose a different path. Despite growing up in Toronto government housing and an abusive household, I worked hard, got a college degree because people gave me the opportunity to grow and believed in me. That’s everyone from teachers to former bosses to close friends and family members. Although growing up I struggled to plug an extension cord down the hallway of our apartment just to have electricity, I never witnessed what Jesse did. Like him, I hope that maybe his story inspires others a little to scratch their way to a better life, or to give other people who have so much potential the boost they need to secure their future forever change like others have done me.

All in all we hope this momentum continues because if it does we will have a great season ahead of us.

Survivor is a marathon, not a sprint. It’s hard to know when to step on the gas and when to let go, though. That’s a quality most winners have. Morriah Young has the distinction of being the first to be voted out this season. It wasn’t for lack of effort, however. The Baka tribe was in the game’s honeymoon phase, where everyone was one big family, roasting marshmallows over the fire and singing campfire songs, even though they should have been preparing for war like the other tribes. War within and without the tribe. As the great Sun Tzu once wrote, “He will win who is willing to wait unprepared to overwhelm the enemy.” In other words, if you nap, you lose, and Morriah has slept far too long while others have raised their troops.

Some might think it was a bit too harsh, but I loved that Probst made the tribes work for their meager supplies and took their flints from them when they lost. Over the past decade, Survivor has kind of spoiled players, allowing them to trade for more rice, etc. The experience should be hard and rough. Those who make it to the end should earn it by battling the other players and the environment, conditions themselves.

I also wholeheartedly agree with Elisabeth “Elie” Scott. What was Mike thinking? Giving up immunity is a beginner’s move. No one would blame Mike for playing up his immunity. You would certainly do the same in his shoes.

That scene where Cody jumps off the rock in next week’s preview is weird. It occurs to me that it has more meaning or importance than it appears. Is Cody getting hurt somehow? Does he need medical treatment? Something seems really strange about it.

stay tuned folks

Morriah Young

Morriah was not thrown overboard for missteps or mistakes. With three smaller tribes, gameplay speeds up and winning challenges becomes incredibly important, as does the idea of having a “strong” tribe.
