Kind of weird that they didn't upload this until a few weeks ago.
Questions are a lot harder than they seem at first. At least they were
for me and Emily.

They were hard.-a I got most of them but had no idea of things like the exact date S1 began or the total number of contestants.-a And I would
have included Parvati on the list of two-time winners and am a little surprised no one mentioned her Australia v. the World win.-a Maybe they
cut references to that out or told them off camera the question only
applied to US Survivor.
The camera fixation on pen caps dropping was weird.

IIRC, the two-time winner question specifically stated "Survivor USA."
For the S1 question, I thought they meant just the year which I knew. I would have got the month wrong.
I knew the number of contestants was 7xx
but had no idea what the exact number was. I was surprised some of them
knew the answer.
For me, the hardest question was the one about which season was first
filmed in Fiji at the same location as S50. Unless you read
Wikipedia-type articles, who would know something like that? The show
has mentioned specific islands in ages.
The camera fixation on pen caps dropping was weird.
That was clearly set up as a gag. Not sure why because it definitely
came across as weird. Emily's reactions and comments were way funnier.

No, the question they flashed on the screen was "Who Are the Only Two-
Time Winners".-a But there may have been / probably was-a discussion off screen excluding non-US seasons.-a Rizo would have almost certainly known about Parv's win, and probably Christian as well.-a Emily, I would guess, could be clueless about that.
For the S1 question, I thought they meant just the year which I knew.
I would have got the month wrong.
Same here.-a I knew it was mid-2000 but was surprised it began in May.-a I was mis-remembering that it began in June or even July
I knew the number of contestants was 7xx but had no idea what the
exact number was. I was surprised some of them knew the answer.
I knew it was 750-ish because that had been talked about a few times,
but did not know the exact number.

I literally read that in a Wikipedia article when I was researching something this past season.

Tiff also had a few non-answers and blank responses, but she at least
get a couple of things right.-a I was actually surprised that Emily was
so bad at this.

My mistake. It was the most days played question that had "Survivor USA"
on the screen. Whoever did the editing probably forgot to include "USA"
on the two-time winner question.

Interesting. Maybe they used Wikipedia to come up with the questions.

I'd have to watch again, but did Emily get every question wrong? As far
as I know, she's never claimed to be a superfan.
