Survivor has crowned 41 castaways as the Sole Survivor (with Sandra Diaz-Twine and Tony Vlachos as the show’s only two-time winners) since 2000. While sometimes the jury gets it right and awards the most deserving person with the $1 million, other times fans don’t agree with the winner. And now and then (certainly in Nick Wilson’s case), personal ideologies and opinions influence Survivor fans’ thoughts on a Sole Survivor.

Survivor fans first met Nick Wilson when he joined the David tribe in Survivor: David vs. Goliath, aka season 37. And they likely would have waved goodbye to him during the premiere had the producers not medically evacuated Pat Cusak following a boating accident.

For the first two decades of “Survivor,” host Jeff Probst frequently welcomed the contestants into a challenge by shouting, “Come on in, guys!” However, the iconic catchphrase is no longer used on the CBS reality TV show. What gives?
At the start of the 41st season, the first to air during the Covid-19 pandemic, Probst asked the 18 cast members for their guidance regarding his continued use of the phrase, which some people may find non-inclusive. “I love saying it, it’s part of the show, but I too want to be of the moment,” he admitted at the time. The players at first agreed that it was okay to use and didn’t need to be retired. As a queer woman, Evvie Jagoda confirmed she didn’t feel excluded by the saying. However, when Ricard Foye got back to camp, he thought about it more and decided he needed to speak up.

Sometimes, life has a way of blindsiding you in the best way possible. And this was one didn't-see-it-coming twist that Survivor's Ricard Foyé wholeheartedly embraced. Since he was 12 years old, the season 41 castaway dreamed of being a dad. But he never quite knew what that would look like. "I'm not straight, I'm not going to have a wife," he shared with E! News. "There's no way I'd be able to get a surrogate." And then came life's greatest reward: Now-husband Andy Foyé. After the two met volunteering at a queer youth camp in 2015, they eloped on New Year's Eve, with a bigger wedding that followed in May 2018. It was then that Andy,...

Episode 7 of “Survivor 41” ended in the most dramatic Tribal Council of the season to date. After Erika Casupanan smashed the hourglass that resulted in the winners of last week’s challenge becoming vulnerable, it was a mad scramble to determine who to vote out, with multiple advantages played and past alliances betrayed. Sydney Segal was the unfortunate victim of a chaotic Tribal Council, going out in a very close 5-4-3 vote. But did the merged tribe ultimately make the right call?
