What's interesting about the edit surrounding Amanda's idol play is that we are led to believe that the only other person who knew about the idol was Parvati. In actuality, Amanda told Cirie about the idol and the plan to blindside Alexis. Cirie then still votes for Amanda so that Natalie doesn't feel betrayed after the vote and to keep her on their side instead of Erik's. Because the editors wanted to surprise us with Amanda's idol at tribal, they couldn't show us the conversation between Amanda and Cirie where Amanda reveals the idol to Cirie, or how they come up with the plan to keep Natalie on their side after the vote.

@tarbosh917

Giving up earned immunity that close to the end will forever be the dumbest move. JT had a good plan, bad outcome scenario. Trusting Russell was obviously a huge risk since even if he was right about the other tribe's dynamics it's not like Russell could be trusted week to week. If JT can't trust Russell then he's screwed anyway -- it means there's the girl alliance and Russell is actually with them so a single idol down the road isn't going to help him much. If JT can trust Russell but opts not to give him the idol then Russell gets voted out and JT still has to deal wit the girls alliance. Whether you want to believe that JT considered all that before making his choice is up to you of course, but it's a simple strategy consideration of risk/reward. If it played out as planned Russell, himself, and others would've been in great shape to coast to the top spots. Play to win the game. Just because a big move failed doesn't mean it was a bad move.

Eirk's was still the dumbest move. There is no scenario (except the final 4 fire-making) that giving up immunity necklace is beneficial. If you give it to someone who is safe anyways, you haven't changed anything. If you give to someone who would be going home, you're going home instead. JT's move is not that different from being blindsided by someone you thought is your ally.

Watching this video almost two years after it was made. In season 43 they used editing tricks like this almost every episode. However my fav would definitely be when Dwight gets voted out and the cast, and audience, assumes he leaves with Jeanine’s idol. However, at the beginning of the next episode we find out he gave it Jesse! I really enjoy these tricks and find that they make otherwise “meh” seasons more exciting to watch.

2:24 Peridiam with that The Genius editing. Great work and if Survivor had that editing by default, moments would definitely be more iconic I think.

I don’t know if it qualifies as “flipping the script” but the aubry boot in EOE was also great how they gave her all the post immunity challenge confessionals only for her to get blindsided by everyone else

The starting of this video just reminded me of how mad I was when Parvati didn't win HvsV, but now I'm not that mad. I love Survivor's queen and princess

They should have a season where the audience doesnt know anyone has an idol until they play it or reveal it at tribal, then like a flashback of when the player found the idol would be cool to add the suspense and make it more interesting not knowing who has an idol.

This is probably my favourite vid of yours, been here since the beginning. Keep it up!

So, I fully watched the first part yesterday and still didn't skip it this time. 🤣

Another great editing job (altho it isn't necessarily scenes out of order or flashbacks) is the back and forth trash talking of Chris vs Dom in camp and confessionals in the GI merge... When Dom talks about the ridiculous shit Chris says and how he needs to show everyone how great he is and then they cut to different examples.... Masterful editing

I love how the music starts to play to show just how much of a gangster parv is

I personally think it would be better if we the audience never knew if people found the idol

I love this editing lol

Damn that use of The Genius song at the start sent me wild.

this is CRAZY

Damn.. that Jason Bourne OST (extreme ways) got me really pumped.

You revitalized my love for Moby with that intro

I do think they should keep idols secret from the viewers more often. May not always be possible if everyone knows a player has one, but in many cases it should be.

That opening edit was godly

Here is one I feel you should have talked about. During episode 5 of Survivor Caramoan, Brandon Hantz went on a rampage at camp, and when they entered the immunity challenge, the favorites tribe decided to forfeit the immunity challenge, go to tribal council and vote him off, which turned into an impromptu tribal council at the challenge site. In reality, the producers of the show forced him out of the game, and made the tribe act like they wanted to vote him out right there right then.

that Godfather move Boston Rob made just made me tip my hat in approval. nice move

The sounds effects and editing of the first video sounds similar to A Korean game show,The Genius

Yul? Yul. This episode is gold

19:48 LOL JOHNNY NOT HUGGING A POUTING SANDRA IS HILARIOUS 😂

another scene I remember that left out info from DvG was the brochacho blindside, we never hear that the davids are planning to split their vote, and certainly don't hear who they're planning to vote for, so the blindside kinda blindsided us too, cause we didn't know what other names were getting written down.

Interesting topic to digest

Another example is the editors having Sandra be voted out after Parvati in WaW, even though the order was swapped. Probably so it would finish on a big blindside

I think the first way of telling the story, the one if they found the idol or not, happened a 3rd time when Ben found his second idol in the final 6? Or I don't remember correctly?

In Australian survivor season 4, AK also found an idol in early game but it was not revealed to the audience until he played it. Other players saw a hole and some strings and assume he found it but weren’t sure

Made me want to watch "The Genius " again.

8:30 Amanda finding the idol is like when you’re on roblox survivor and you get the idol when the timer is at 0:00 until tribal

Holy shit nice Genius reference at the end of the cold open!

The LEGEND Sylvia Quan snubbed for the idol withholding info from the viewer (she did not have the idol)

Love in Season 45 where Jake outlines this whole plan about how he sees Tribal Council going down and how they'll go to rocks and pressure Austin into switching his vote, and the editors use outtakes from the actual, yet-to-be-seen, Tribal Council to illustrate the plan, complete with a couple of the votes being cast. At first, I was like, how can they be giving any of this info away? And then you get to the actual Tribal Council and though you know a few snippets of what's going to happen, there's this fun tension because you don't know exactly how it's all going to play out. I also liked in Season 46 where you had a pretty standard 'Split the Votes' to flush an idol plan against Hunter, but the whole thing was told from the point of view of Hunter who is running around paranoid not knowing if he should play his idol or not. And since the editors didn't show what any of the other players were thinking, it was this interesting feeling of seeing a familiar strategy, but from the perspective of the prey instead of that of the hunters.

Also similar to the Amanda idol, in HHH at the final 6 Ben finds the clue that the idol is under the shelter but Mike Ryan and Devon are there and tribal begins without us knowing if he got it...

Ron’s a legend for doing that to Joe

I completely wish they still did idol editing like this.

I felt kinda “chronologically mixed up” or “made ignorant” two other times in Australia. I felt like the Mitchell vote “hatched plan” was done in a way that we were not really privy to what I think would have been awesome conversations about the strategy there. I also feel like today for the Varner vote they would have done one of those flashbacks to when Kimmy told people that Jeff had past votes. A last instance I find funny of when I feel like survivor wasn’t ready to give us viewers “complicated” stories yet was when Dan was voted off in Gabon. It felt to me that today it would have been played as us understanding that the votes were being split but we weren’t sure who was going, where as the narrative was not about splitting, as if we weren’t “ready” for that yet. I felt the same way in China during the James idol vote where I think some of the conversations were highly strategic among wiser players who realized how that vote could have been manipulated but they instead decided to only have the shock of James being voted out be the “interesting” thing about that tribal. It has certainly been more fun when survivor allowed us to hear more strategy talk because they give us more credit and I also think it is why players come in playing with a little more complexity: they’ve seen more complex gameplay
