Shredded Hen

quote:

Probst pitched the concept to CBS, the network demanded one big change. “I pitched it and said ‘How about Gen X vs. Millennials?’” says Probst,
“And they said, ‘Terrible name. It’s Millennials vs. Gen X.’ And we said, ‘We’re in. We’re good.’”

Thankfully CBS stepped in there or the season name would have been terrible

I mentioned it in the last thread but Rob Cesternino's wife said that the Gen X'ers that complained about participation trophies in their bios should forfeit their prize money if they aren't the Sole Survivor.

I really really hope someone makes this argument at Final Tribal Council.

Although there seems to be a rule against discussing the non-million dollar prizes?

Those aren't participation trophies, those are paycheques.

The longer you appear, the more you get paid.

from what I understand, those payouts are specifically classed as runner-up/consolation prize money, not an appearance fee or paycheck.

Thankee kindly.
In case people had any doubts that Michelle is going to be the Coach 1.0 of the game:

quote:

Gordon Holmes: First thing is first; how do you study dragons? They don’t exist.
Michelle Schubert: Oh my gosh, draw a quick picture of a dinosaur.
Holmes: Hold on. OK…done.
Schubert: Now draw wings.
Holmes: (Laughs) I see what you’re getting at.
Schubert: (Laughs) The word “dinosaur” was actually coined in 1852. What do you think people called them before that?
Holmes: This feels like a technicality.
Schubert: They called them dragons!
Holmes: Mind blown.
Schubert: Right? (Laughs) Marco Polo, who we learned about in school wrote about dragons. Take out that fantastical, mythical idea of them flying around like “Game of Thrones.” But really we have hundreds of accounts of dragons. Sometimes fire breathing, or at least they shoot sparks out of their nose or something. All of them said they were birthed with eggs. Normally a myth is, like, the gods threw a magical baby onto a rock and it shattered into a thousand dragons. But no, dragons always say that they’re born from eggs, and they live in swamps, and they eat large livestock.

...

Holmes: How well do you deal with being lied to?
Schubert: I’m one of the most forgiving people I know.

...

Holmes: How about paranoia?
Schubert: I do meditate, I do pray…so hopefully I deal with it better than others. I think you can tap into truth in the spiritual realm and the truth inside you with those techniques

...

Holmes: If you could align with any past player, who would it be?
Schubert: I would think maybe…Coach…the Dragon Slayer…or…Parvati? Because even though they had drastically different games, they were actually very loyal to their alliance and even sacrificed for them.
Holmes: How could you possibly align with a dragon slayer?
Schubert: I know! I hate that he wants to kill dragons!

Well that settles it, do a run where Michelle and Coach are on the same tribe.
