Australian Survivor: All-Stars - Season Review

- In this video, I review the latest season of Australian Survivor, Australian Survivor: All-Stars, which had some highs and many lows, and I had a lot to say, so here we go.
David playing the idol on Tarzan at the F8 was definitely the correct move going into a tie vote. You always want to give your side the best possible odds. Also, this solidified Tarzan’s loyalty and respect for David.
Yeah and then gets rid of any suspicion of him having an idol even though he still had one
It also saved him from rocks
Well it turned 60% 40% rock draw to a 75% 25% rock draw, so it was the correct move for sure
@@jessehamson5903 It did save him from going to rocks or even being in a tie because dave also has another idol but he could've also talked Tarzan
If he doesnt save tarzan its 60/40 odds and im pretty sure AK doesnt back on going to rocks (despite being bad odds for AK)
Shonee was highlight of the season
Lari Alanko and Dave
Dave was
Lari Alanko yessss
Let me stress how much I love this content. I’ve never watched Survivor or Big Brother in any international level and this is an hour of something I don’t even know anything about except David Genat who I watched a compilation of. And I’m STILL watching it. LOVE this channel.
I just feel like phoebe could not catch a break after the tribe swap (except for you know the fire-making challenge lol). she almost gets an idol.. almost turns the vote around.. but just couldn't quite get it done.. does she become the power player of the season if she does? having nick and his crew on her side plus her alliance on the other tribe? if only nick had a steal a vote instead of an extra vote haha. Also who would have thought that her #1 ally David would be so petty and try to get her out at all cost especially since she was clearly loyal to him. idk I'd love to see her play one more time and hopefully finally not get swap screwed and make it to the merge.
Totally agree. I believe she stated she wouldn't play again though which would be a shame.
If she didnt betray David she would go way further with him.
@@leachimy24 I don’t like people blaming it on David as to why Pheobe went. She got blindsided by Moana without David knowing, David only got her out after, it was mainly moana
She could’ve easily won both her seasons had things gone very slightly differently, she’s just gotten so unlucky both times and I feel like Moana relentlessly targeting her for no reason on All Stars along with David not being able to forgive her for voting differently ONE TIME was just hugely unfair to her (especially considering he forgave Sharn immediately after she did the same thing and carried her to the final 2)
Craig not being on this season was still the biggest crime of it
The most disappointing thing about the season has nothing to do with gameplay or the contestants, it all falls on the fault of the edit and I've found Australian Survivor to really be lacking in that area which is honestly just a shame. If a big move is gonna happen on someone they should focus on building not just the people who make it but the person it happens to from the START so it's more impactful. Unfortunately it's more about who can we advertise to get viewers rather than what can make an interesting unexpected season
yeah very true and it has a much longer runtime than the American version so you'd think it would probably do that lol. With that extended time and what they do with it as of now, I do feel more invested generally in the season as a whole but also in the personalities (which is probably the reason for this way of edit, setting up the players that last longer) but there are episodes where the pacing can drag as a result and you know 100% which way it's going to go anyway which the American OG version is better at not revealing and more consistently fun upbeat fast-paced to watch, though then that can sometimes be too fast-paced and a bit less impactful when a big player gets voted out
@@protector_of_the_realms EXACTLY! They have the time, they should use it to develop a bunch of characters that will have significant moments, whether that's them being voted off or orchestrating big moves or making it far, they really need to develop more people and show more interactions/game theory and strategy by players
Zack said on his instagram story that if Lee didnt have to leave, it would have been a final 3
Ok thank goddd cause I’m so sick of this final 2 thing, should also copy the US final 4 fire making challenge so we always get the best winner :)
Aussie Bob holy shit people who like the f4 fire making exist
Aussie Bob final 4 fire ffs noooo but I do want final 3
Aussie Bob shut ur fuckin mouth
@Sebastian Benavides I think they should have both the forced final 4 firemaking and a final 2 so the "advantage" of winning the final 4 immunity is actually worth something.
The cast was so weird, so many people weren’t all stars, I get having 1 or 2 wildcards on an all stars season but having Daisy, Jacqui, John, Lydia, Moana, Tarzan, Zach over players like Benji, Brian, Janine, Luke, Pia, Sarah, Tessa and Ziggy didn’t make much sense to me, also only including 2 or the 4 winners and putting them on separate tribes made them stand out so much as the obvious first boots
THANK YOU! I kept hearing how amazing this season was, with some saying the best season ever. I watched it and shared your opinion completely, davids win was so obvious, and the editing quite simply made the season so hard to watch
well Mo got the traditional "winning edit" which had me a bit worried because Dave was just so much better in gameplay so I was worried for him but he just outplayed everyone and could keep things rea tight when he needed. Pre swap this season started off so well and as one of the best of any version I had ever watched (which is I guess maybe why you were hearing it as the "best ever" which I think it pretty clearly wasn't as a whole) but just like Matt, we the audience got robbed of it's potential at the swap with the numbers and all the tribe dynamics that made it fairly predictable asides from some boss exciting move from Dave every couple of episodes though that ended with the first vote of merge with that amazing but pretty predictable blindside. Other than that the vote Zach, Jacqui and Tarzan went out on was somewhat exciting and could have gone easily the other way but it was one of the most complete dominant seasons I've ever seen from a player in Dave like Boston Rob's winning season though the cast this time were obviously a lot better and smarter and it was much more entertaining. Overall still a good season, as a whole around mid tier of US because of the midgame and after first vote of merge, in terms of AU I'd say better than S1 but not sure after that, it has some truly epic moments and moves but AU S4 and S2 are better and S3 might be because of the chaos that was Benji and how everyone could flip at any moment and all the lies lol. The editing though I appreciate how we didn't get an accurate "winner edit" (though it's pretty much impossible to give a traditional one to the chaotic, charismatic vilain that is Dave) it still doesn't need to improve a lot but I do like it's slower pace and more story drivenness approach then the S version but the downside is that on uneventfull episodes it can really drag on
@@protector_of_the_realms Looking back, I did figure it out by episode 2 at the time but I can see why it was confusing. Moana got a American Survivor/Au Survivor 2016,2017 winners edit but not a cvc winners edit which is what David got
David was such a great player this season
That image of AK pitching to David at 46:18 is just way too funny!
He looks like a rabbit salivating, eagerly waiting for his owner to give him a carrot.
The pre-merge was great with a lot of promise but, just like the US All stars or Game changers, a lot of the merge cast was just not there to play. Only Harry, Shonee and David were there to make moves and try to shake things out but it always went nowhere.
The absolute worst part for me is the edit. Why show Sharn and Moana against David to then do nothing against him? Why give Moana such a HUGE edit only to cut her at the final 3 instead of Sharn who didnt have much of a story other than "redemption"? And that sounds just so stupid considering she lost by one vote.
All in all it was a pretty bad season, I ended up just waiting for a David blindside that never came
Cris yes I totally agree, Mo should have won ;-;
Dave was there to make moves and shake things up? Lol no he wasn't? He literally took everyone in the other alliance out systematically..
@@iipinkshake9377 pre-merge mate, pre-merge and first vote of merge. He set everything up perfectly, played every angle as a double agent doing what was best for him so he could steamroll to the end in one of the most dominant, complete displays ever like Boston Rob's winning season though Dave was a lot more adaptable, entertaining and better. You don't make moves for the sake of making them, that makes you a stupid player and voted out quick, you make the best moves at the right time and Dave did and shook things up like 5 times. Plus they voted out Jacqui and then they had to do Tarzan (and then obviously Zach before that but Dave wasn't apart of that) so it wasn't everyone on the other original alliance systematically
iiPinkShake he came into the merge with that motto and then changed, thats what I mean
@@protector_of_the_realms the only reason he turned on Tarzan was because Brooke kept winning immunity, Zach going home was out of his control as he was a bad player that round, Jacquie going home was because she dared to make a move against David and didn't want to steamroll to the end.
I dont understand how your saying Australian survivor this season was bad when in American everything is to fast paced and when you get voted out there is no emotion.
Yeah personally I loveeee the length of the episodes and stuff, I’ve cried more times this season then any of the last 10+ US seasons combined
The editing made the season boring and predictable. I enjoy watching survivor because I like seeing people play to win. If you want to watch something that will make you emotional, then you should probably watch a different show.
lol real Survivor shits on Australian Survivor
This guy is too negative. Basically says the episode is shit but lists all these fun moments.
As an Australian, there are many flaws with how production is done on our Survivor. One thing i think we trump the US with is that our episodes go twice as long. I cannot be happier with the length there. This season was probably the first time a real leading player won and not a background player who only just came into the forefront in the last quarter. All in all this was our best season to date. Back to the US version though, havingthose episodes be only an hour is a fair bit too short
I actually respectfully disagree, In my opinion this season was nothing short of “bad”. It lacked interest and unpredictability and showed David by the end of it so boring and repetitive he almost came off as unlikeable. You know that if your relying on Jacque to start playing the something has gone wrong. Shonee and Brooke carried this season. I just in general think the players who were willing to make a move on this season were voted extremely early. I like Moana but her blatant following when it was clear David was never taking her to the end was annoying. Throughout this as well Sharn really annoying thinking she actually had a shot and was actually “playing” especially compared to winners like Pia who win because of one thing you don’t understand, threat management. David never has it and usually it works against him, as it should, Pia Harry and Janine used this against him S4. So all in all, a bad edit, boring and outright horrible gameplay along with a sad boot order. Hoping players like Pheobe and Michelle and Henry come back as to not have ruined reputation because of people following David like lambs to a slaughter
I agree with lot of you said in this video. I think David is great but they showed him way to much for my liking and while I loved his move to get rid of Daisy. I also felt it was really petty from his point of view.
Have you thought about making a ranking of the best AU Survivors Players?
He mentioned it at the end of this video.
matea sikalo
Thanks, hadn‘t gotten so far...
The non-elimination episodes are actually one thing I really like about Aussie 'Survivor'.. it's a fun element that's impossible for the players to account for while strategizing. It's also great they put idols in such open, new places and with Adam goin' for the podium in WaW and opened up the US audience to the idea of idols hidden at tribal I'm hopin' they implement those idols in future seasons. It'd have been awesome if they did go all out and throw idols in at tribal for WaW, tbh.
The Shontent was perfection, though, even if we didn't get to see the little rascals run the game.
Oh, damn, and the 'busting nut, after nut, after nut' bit and David's acint' for Daisy's vote out were some top tier moments and I'm always here for some Craig appreciation! 😹😹 He really should have been there, especially over John.
I just rewatched this season cause there is confirmation that the next season will be filmed in March in Australia (due to covid travelling restrictions) and I agree the editing does need more work, I feel like alot of people did get burried in the edit and that they were definitely focusing certain people.
I was really into the season until the first merge tribal council. The merge majority alliance is definitely one of the worst majority alliances ever.
Dave pretty much used all of them to get to the end. They were practically up his ass the entire time, and he used that to his advantage. Good on him.
well technically it's one of the best alliances because it worked but that makes it the worst for entertainment purposes. Anyway Dave just orchestrated it and set it up so perfectly so it has that going for it lol
Anyone know where to watch the full episodes if yall could reply with the link that would be awesome I need something to watch in between wednesdays during quarantine
the legal way how to watch it is by getting a VPN (set in australia) then going to 10play.com.au

on facebook there is a page called the tribe has spoken. it has all the episodes in hd

Great video man... Keep up the good work and content.
Also I lost interest in Australian all star season at the merge to be honest. Winners at War is way better than this season.
The fact that they based an entire tribe reward challenge on one extra vote is kinda cheap.
Hahah gotta agree, it should have been atleast a steal-a-vote or something else🤣
Man this season was so terrible. David is a top 15 winner of all time but watching him dominate is the only positive of this season. Everything else was so offputting, it was a shame
KrazyCobra1 Shonee said on her instagram that she was still surprised that David lasted so long
Yeah I was disappointed the same for the most part. However Mo got the traditional "winning edit" which had me a bit worried because Dave was just so much better in gameplay so I was worried for him as I also heard a number of leaks going around, some Dave won, a lot said Mo some said Sharn and Brooke and they all made it to final four, but Dave just outplayed everyone and could keep things real tight when he needed. Pre swap this season started off so well and as one of the best of any version I had ever watched but just like Matt, we the audience got robbed of its potential at the swap with the numbers and all the tribe dynamics that made it fairly predictable asides from some boss exciting move from Dave every couple of episodes though that ended with the first vote of merge with that amazing but pretty predictable blindside. Other than that the vote Zach, Jacqui and Tarzan went out on was somewhat exciting and could have gone easily the other way but it was one of the most complete dominant seasons I've ever seen from a player in Dave like Boston Rob's winning season though the cast this time were obviously a lot better and smarter and it was much more entertaining. Overall still a good season, as a whole around mid tier of US because of the midgame and after first vote of merge, in terms of AU I'd say better than S1 but not sure after that, it has some truly epic moments and moves but AU S4 and S2 are better and S3 might be because of the chaos that was Benji and how everyone could flip at any moment and all the lies lol. So yeah very disappointing after how it started out but the editing though I appreciate how we didn't get an accurate "winner edit" (though it's pretty much impossible to give a traditional one to the chaotic, charismatic villain that is Dave) it still does need to improve a lot but I do like it's slower pace and more story drivenness approach than the US version but the downside is that on uneventful episodes it can really drag on
Was so disappointed with this season on so many levels, one of these being how hyped up as having "the greatest end game of all time" which is just such a blatant lie to viewers. The show ultimately did a disservice to the viewers and the majority of the cast, and I felt kinda betrayed to be honest. Spoilers were barely escapable but people were spoiled by the edit itself anyway. It was also more unsettling than usual to see how influential the edit was by how viewers were completely obsessed with David and trashing on every other player.
Still have hope for future Australian Survivor seasons, hopefully with ratings improving from the last few seasons they get into a position of more freedom where they don't have to completely pander to casual viewers.

I think you're looking at the zak elimination somewhat wrong. Yes David ends up losing zak but had he not "convinced" zak to volunteer for exile, 9 outa 10 David would of been voted for where either he goes to exile or his idol is flushed or tarzan is voted (another ally). The vote was always between David/Tarzan/Zak. I feel like he was in a lose-lose situation.
The editing is why I think Au Survivor is the worst one out of the three English speaking Survivor shows. (Au,Us,Sa) David had around 100 more confessionals than Tarzan did which I think is absolutely insane. If you’re going to bring someone on your show, give them the respect of at least acknowledging their presence. I love Au for their slower pace, storytelling, and their 24 person cast. There’s so many things that make Au survivor great, but the editing is... so bad. Look at the cf chart for this season... absolutely insane. Sa does this amazingly, the give EVERYONE screen time, not just productions favourite.
I agree but overall I don't think that downside of the editing makes AU the worst one at all, with all that other great stuff that is better in the Au version you mentioned. Though I do think the editing needs to get a lot better, as it is now it does enhance the storylines and beloved personalities that last longer in the game that's more likely to be playing a good game and happen to be your favourite. Pus US can still give the purple edit now and then, there are bland players every season that shouldn't get too many confessionals
What was weirder? JLP reading the votes from LA while David is in studio and Sharn is at home, or Jeff Probst reading the votes from his garage?
everyone was away for the coronovirus, not much they can do about it when the reunion show is happening during a pandemic
Does anyone have the confessional count for the season
Chase Guido yea message my insta @oliverkirk98
I dont think nick played particulary well. If he didnt try to save phoebe so much, he might could have got more social capital (he completely wasted his by doing that)
Where do you rank David’s win among all Survivor winners?
I only really enjoyed 10 people on this season: Shonee (My fave ever), Harry, Nick, Brooke, AK, Phoebe, Mat, Jacqui, Michelle and Flick. But eh. David did not deserve to win this was either Shonee or Brooke’s season!
People who I’d have liked to see on the season were:
Fenella instead of Lydia
Craig instead of Lee
Janine instead of Abbey
Pia instead of John
Brian instead of Sharn
How did David not deserve to win? Two idols, massive blindsides, was one of the only players to not just rely on others and the majority and actually made big moves.
@@lachlan-mastermind6781 right? wtf
I would say David easily deserved it but shonee might of been 2nd
I just feel when Shonee went no one deserved to win. Shonee played a game no one expected her to play and she’s my fave survivor cause of it.
this season was a let down imo. this could have been edited over so much better as some characters were shoved down our throats and alliances failed to change throughout and seem interesting. the characters in this season were not massive names either i feel as if we needed more time to make better characters and players overall as most of these guys were faded out and forgotten.
When there’s only been 4 seasons there was always gonna be a few dud characters that are hard to work with
Yeah I was disappointed the same for the most part. The cast really needed Benji, Sarah and Luke al of whom were asked but turned down for different reasons that were very understandable and you can't blame them but just imagine them in this season, it would have been epic. Ah well. However Mo got the traditional "winning edit" which had me a bit worried because Dave was just so much better in gameplay so I was worried for him as I also heard a number of leaks going around, some Dave won, a lot said Mo some said Sharn and Brooke and they all made it to final four, but Dave just outplayed everyone and could keep things real tight when he needed.

Where would you rank Dave amongst the US winners? Would love to see a video about it and it would blow up
This season really wasn’t that good. From the unfortunate bootlist, SUPER unbalanced editing, a really boring pagonging, and the DUMBASS 6-person exile twist - it was just a hot mess. David’s a great player, but I wish it wouldn’t have been so obvious that he was the winner from literally episode 3.

Shonee is a pretty good player but her game on all stars is terrible. She is perceived as kinda weak in pre merge because of team challenges so she arrives at merge with no social capital and to be perceived as the "weakest" of the minority. I would like to see her in a majority alliance
Justice for Shonee!!
Justice for phoebe
My memory of all stars is a bit shaky but in Henry’s defence
- yea Henry made some bad moves; voting incorrectly at the first tribal, attempting to play a similar game as his first time without a good read on his tribe and getting caught giving mat his idol (if he wasn’t caught by AK, I don’t thing it would’ve been a bad move) but,
- I think Henry did well to reintegrate himself into his tribe despite playing big right from the start and getting caught passing his idol (without Shonee’s idol he would’ve survived and she would’ve gone home), he had something good going with mat (and Abbey to an extent) should he make the swap, and I don’t think re-finding the idol at tribal was necessarily a bad play; if he was going home (disregarding shonee’s idol play) it could’ve potentially swayed the votes in his favour. It was a long shot, but he had almost nothing to lose. Also,
- In regards to Henry playing big and causing rifts in his tribe, I think Nick should get credit here for playing Henry and convincing him that they were still working together (before the Michelle boot). Henry thought he had numbers because of Nick, which was good social play for Nick to make Henry a target (once Henry knew he didn’t have such numbers, he started playing much better) That is all :)
FAKE IT TO MAKE IT? series 5 episode 20 @ 24 mins in. The challenge showdown between Brooke and David, where they were both holding themselves up, wedged in a frame. At 20 minutes they move up to the next stage. Next thing we know, @22mins. they are both back down in the lower section AND THE CHALLENGE ENDS FROM THERE @ 24 mins in.
I think your episode glitched or something
michelle QUEEN she seems to have u mad ❤️
Actually done with the massive casts on Au survivor. Makes purple edits even more inevitable.
would've been nice I'd harry played the banana stash or a idol or found that advantage just before they left to merge
An I ask where you can watch it?

This season was a bit disappointing Moana should have won and Mat should have lasted longer
why do you think Mo shoud have won? And yeah 100% Matt should have lasted longer but like us the audience, he got screwed by the swap and numbers and dymanics which sorta mad most of the rest of the season a bit predictable and boring. But with Mo I do think she played the 2nd best game strategically but like everyone else, she had absolutely no shot against Dave lol. She played the info she got perfectly but at times she was obnoxious and hypocritical at times (I mean she called out sharn for her biggest move being that sharn did "nothing" but that was Mo's whole gameplan lol. And how she tried to explain her game to the jury in villa I don't think she was self aware or could've explained that well and didn't really know what she was doing or why and she ended up voting for sharn out of bitterness I feel and apparently Mo is the only jury member to still not have congratulated Dave but that might not be true) and there were so many holes in her reasoning for wanting those moves to be made, she wasn't great at the challenges at all or social aspect and she relied too much on others to come up with, initiate and make the moves, she just went along really with whatever seemed best for her when it came up and just made sure nothing could be linked to her rather than manipulate everything. Her jury management was decent but again not that good, all the vakama jury saw her face as the representation of the rift that sent them home and didn't like her gameplan thinking she didn't take any risks or make the moves whilst the jury loved Dave so Mo could've only won against Sharn and I think she would have definitely deserved it but it would've depended on how she explained her game if she got the votes. I mean none of this really mattered anyway because in the end no-one had a shot against Dave, he played the best game excelling at all facets, socially, strategically and physically whilst being more active, making the riskiest biggest moves in the game that always benefited his whole gameplan. He's one of the best players I've ever seen from any version and one of the most deserving winners, definitely the best player to have ever won the AU version by far though half the other winners of AU were still deserving
EllieLiLi “Moana should’ve won” what lmao
The right person always wins.
Abbey Luscombe I wanted Dave to pick Mo to the end cuz that would have made a more dynamic last tribal, cuz everyone knew Dave was going to beat Sharn
@@shiyuhe3499 yeah 100% I think it would have made a more interesting tribal. I believe Mo played the 2nd best game and it could have been up in the air at times about certain plays and who's move it was as they worked together and made a lot of the same moves, but as I pointed to in my original comment, Moana though she had a better chance then Sharn, she still had no shot against Dave for a multitude of reasons. I think she could have got 1 or at most 2 more votes than Sharn did but in the end wouldn't change the result so I'm fine with how it turned out, just makes Dave look a bit smarter in my books
Season 5 is too early for an all star season
They have larger casts than US Survivor, 24 v 16. And it was only season 7 in US. for 1st Allstars. Not that different, tbh.
@@scottl7054 It was season 8 in US
You're right. My bad lol
Great season for me !
David, Moana, Sharn, and Tarzan were just annoying to me tbh.
Ryan TBH I agree
Mo is annoying but everyone else is >:)
Why Dave? I think he was by far the best part of this season and one of the best last but if you didn't like him I totally get that you might hate this season as a whole lol
David is greatest of all time
If you think Australian All-Stars was somewhat boring, you must really be disappointed in Winners At War thus far. To me this all-star season had one of the best moments in any survivor history (Episode 3); I enjoyed the season but I would agree the post merge could have been more exciting if there was better game play
They keep repeating the same bragging confessionals which was so annoying
Who voted for Sharn
Chase Guido Moana
Lachlan Sims how do you know?
Lachlan Sims really? That’s horrible from Moana. She voted for sharn then solely because of David’s decision to take the other player
Lachlan Sims that’s bad. Clearly bringing out her true colours.
She apparently voted for Sharn because David said he voted her off to have a clean sweep of votes
This was a very good and fun season, with some great plays but those senseless "twists" that made no sense really puts a big dent into this format and make it look like amateur hour. that non-elimination exile beach episode got me so mad - it made zero sense. and a lot less sense was that episode where the top 3 vote-getters go to exile and compete in challenges. what would have happen if only 2 people got votes each tribal ? that one really got me angry about what how bad those twists are for the game. and that AK tribal with the fire challenge - felt so random that it was just that one tribal and no other tribal had a saving opportunity. and what if Harry did use his "stop the tribal" adv ? another non-elimination episode that I just dislike.
This season just feels like a modern age survivor being played by a mix of new age level game play and strategy and old-school mentality of reasoning who to target based on revenge.
Overall this was great fun with many memorable moments but AU survivor needs to get their game on point and stop that non-elimination bs, don't mind the longer episode run time as long as there are enough content and survivors to focus on. and I do think that final 3 just works better and would love to see it also in this show.
IKR! These twists are my biggest problem with this like why do 3 rounds of exile they don't even do these a lot in the US version. I do still like this season but it's just not as much fun as I thought it would've been. Maybe if they just don't have any non-eliminations would be much better and/or stick to the US rules!
Imo Aussie version was trying to mix things up, go off script to keep people guessing. Still trying to establish own style instead of following US version exactly.
yeah that exile didn't make much sense, but I mean a lot of US seasons have the whole thing based off non-elimination stuff so I've really gotten used to it and don't find it annoying anymore rip. I think this season had amazing potential, one of the best starts ever but we the audience like Matt got screwed by the swap and it was pretty bland after that apart from some epic Dave moves every couple eps. As a whole season I don't think it's as good as AU S2 or S4 and probably not as good as most of S3, ranking it among the US seasons it's midtier for me, so not at all bad just disappointing for so much initial potential
@@m.a.w1231 I don't mind bringing new stuff and not sticking to the US format but at least don't make it look so random and off the cuff. I was so frustrated with that "top 3 vote-getters go to exile" when in most tribal councils only 2 people get votes on them.
and why only AK had the chance to save himself ? I wouldn't mind if this was an advantage found/earned in some way during the game like Harry's "stop the votes" thing. I'm all about mixing it up but looks like AU still trying to figure what works and for me, some of it just looks amateur.
to big a cast
shonee is so annoying
it's Peter Doyle lol
How dare you!
Shonee has you FUMING
