01The take
Cambodia.
Subtitled Second Chance, the cast voted in by viewers from a ballot of players who never won, shot off Koh Rong. The construction is the hook — returnees who all want a do-over, without veterans of the late-2000s all-star era, a roster the audience picked. The result is a tactically dense season in the middle of Survivor's idol-and-advantage era, paced like the show knows the cast knows the game. A touchstone the modern returnee seasons keep pointing back to.
