Carrie Raisler AV Club Even though at times it was boring, other times were thrilling and there was enough good overall for this to be considered a successful season of Survivor. Rated: A- Mar 20, 2019 Full Review Dalton Ross Entertainment Weekly It certainly was entertaining at times watching Rob strategize (the most dominant showing ever) and Phillip philosophize (the craziest showing ever), just not very dramatic. Mar 15, 2019 Full Review Joe Reid The Atlantic The whole season had an air of uselessness around it, and we'd have all been better off if CBS had just aired a 30-minute special where Les Moonves wrote Mariano a check. Mar 14, 2019 Full Review Tom Gliatto People Magazine The footage focuses almost exclusively on backstabbing and self-interest. It's small-minded and cynical, but no more than the stuff in The Federalist Papers about the awfulness of human nature. The show is solidly American. Mar 26, 2019 Full Review Chris Conaton PopMatters This season is shaping up to be a good one, with strong personalities and savvy players. The Redemption Island twist is making for compelling duels, and no one knows yet how the winner of the Island challenges will integrate back into the tribe. Mar 20, 2019 Full Review OC Register Staff Orange County Register "Survivor" gave us some interesting insight into group dynamics and social behavior, but the complete lack of gameplay by anyone other than Rob or Russell Hantz made the season much less than we have come to expect from the show.

JoAnn S This is season was absolutely terrible. You had 1 person calling all the shots and no one thought for themselves. Absolute disappointment Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/25 Full Review Prince P If you're fan of Rob it's gonna be pleasurableto you but for me was good fun Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Mr. C With a half-baked twist, unfair format, and few likable contestants, "Survivor: Redemption Island" is a weak season. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
