Who was eliminated in the season 37 premiere?
And I’m back again to recap it all, soseason 37, let’s go!
Okay TJ, I see you coming in hot this season like a badass secret agent yourself.

mtv
It’s informative (Ashley and Nelson came into this season as f— buddies!
Tori and Fessy f—ed on vacation but it did not end well!
CT got even hotter!)

mtv
but more importantly it was also straight up hilarious.
The international agents race through the woods, picking up a sledgehammer attached to a key along the way.
Emanuel is the first to arrive, with Kelz not far behind.

mtv
Ashley is yelling out “two-time champion!”
and is shocked that no one picks her.
Emanuel runs straight to Kaycee and unlocks her right away.

mtv
Kelz goes for Tori and then starts crushing the cinder blocks with a sledgehammer.
as his choice, and he picks … That certainly isa choice.
Good luck with that one.

mtv
Rookie Gabo tries to pickSurvivorwinner Michelebut Nam claims her first.
That’s a lot of names, I know.
I’m having trouble keeping track of them too.

mtv
It’s chaos, but a good kind of chaos.
They only get three tries to put the correct code in their safe before they get a five-minute delay.
Even the vets are making rookie mistakes!

mtv
Wow, Aneesa comes in first in the first daily challenge two seasons in a row!
You love to see it for this seasoned vet.
These are two hotheads who are not going to work together well.

mtv
There’s no penalty for coming in last, much to Ashley’s relief.
Back at the house, the teams finally start to get to know each other.
Sweet, sweet Gabo.
It’s weird but okay!
That’s one way to bond as a team, I guess.
The agreement is no veteran will vote for another veteran until all the rookie teams are gone.
Let’s see how long that lasts … And almost immediately, Emanuel and Michele start making heart eyes at each other, making the perfectSurvivorcouple.
And Nany and Kaycee are maybe kind of also becoming a couple!Finally.
That took her no time at all to screw over her friend and ally!
Her way of flirting and hooking up with him is by insulting him, which feels right for her.
Tori even teases Michele that she should “get ready.”
Aneesa even tries to go through her bunk and bags to find it.
Now that’s cutthroat.
This is why they’re bothSurvivorwinners, people!
Nominations
This season’s deliberation room isawesome.
And with only 20 minutes for deliberation, it’s time to get right to business.
But Michele refuses to go silently and gives a great argument back against Michaela.
This deliberation is spicy but I’m impressed with how Michele and Tommy handle it.
Elimination
TJ welcomes everyone to The Lair, and just like the deliberation room, it isepic.
Logan definitely doesn’t want to vote in Emy now!
Aneesa and Logan both vote Corey in for the guy, and for the girl?
Elimination challenge:Back Me Up.
This one’s all physical and endurance, and I have no idea who will come out on top.
Both teams seem evenly physically matched, with Michaela physically stronger than Michele but Corey is stronger than Renan.
But Michaela gets on her stomach and plants herself like a weight.
Renan doesn’t do anything though, and Michaela can’t win this by herself.
Corey even gets a standing ovation for doing the lion’s share of the work.
He really impressed everyone with his strength tonight.
As the winners, Corey and Michele now have a big decision to make.
Nam’s replacement then walks into The Lair … and it’sEd fromThe Circle!
But he’s without his mom this time.This season just got a lot more fun.
But Michele doesn’t partner up with Ed.
Meanwhile, Corey picks Tori, which bums out Kelz in a big way.
So that means Emy and Ed are now partners, and Tracy and Kelz are partners.
That is a massive switch-up, and we’re only one episode in.
If this was just the premiere, there’s no telling where this season is going.
But I’m so happy to be along for the ride.
1 choice for a partner.
I expect big things from him this season.
