Some great challenges. Not that much else was great. Go to Full Review Joe Reid The Atlantic 03/14/2019
This was a remarkably well-cast season, with likeable heroes like the Kims (Johnson and Powers), magnetic goofs like Tom, and enjoyable schemers like Brandon, Lindsay, and Kelly. Go to Full Review Mark Armstrong E! Online 03/15/2019
While [the] two-hour finale included Survivor's usual padding, diarrhea complaints, reflective nature walks and wildlife cutaway shots, the final jury grilling may go down as one of the show's funniest and b****iest. Go to Full Review Andrea Reiher Zap2it.com 03/14/2019
This season was so boring. The castaways had to be trapped inside little areas more or less all the time because an actual fear of being eaten by wild animals. That's not only a little too real, but it doesn't provide much time for scheming. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
