You can tell that Russell does not want to be there, he looks really annoyed just sitting there and he even said he'll only say anything if Brandon was willing to hear it. But obviously Jeff was like 'nahhhh we wanna hear it' and really he just seemed unamused by the whole thing.
@@jaimelannister1797 that’s debatable. In his first season the nephew was so dumb and never got to the finale, in his second season, the nephew was worse than Russell. At least Russell won the fans’ votes and 200k

@@jaimelannister1797 but you have to get to the end to even have a shot. Brandon was worthless that first season, got carried the whole season, and then pulls the dumbest move by giving up immunity. The second season showed us just how bad of a player he was, cause the minute he was at the bottom, he started verbally attacking everyone. And that’s why he quit. At least Russell didn’t make such boneheaded moves, and still won America’s vote for the money.
Russell seems like a good guy. I don’t think he looked bad in this clip at all. He let his nephew know that he loved him and would back off if he wanted him too
Honestly, between Brandon's dad attacking him and strongarming people on the island, and Russell, the very family member Brandon was trying to defend shitting on him and insulting him at the reunion, along with Caramoan, I just feel bad for Brandon. It's like the poor guy never had a chance. Not to mention the irony of Russell criticizing Brandon's game, when Brandon was popular on the island and would've won in the F3, and Russell would never win any of the 4 times he played.
The way Brandon was playing, it wouldn’t had surprised me if at the FTC, he would had said something or done something that cause nobody to vote for him. At least Russell played the game, and didn’t make the dumbest move in survivor
You’re damn skippy. Russell changed the game permanently. There was nothing wrong with the Hantz legacy until Brandon went out and shit all over it, making Russell look like a saint by comparison.
@@TheDizzleHawke in Brandon's defense... he was on the island with probably the most irritating survivor of all time...

@@TheDizzleHawke well the rest of the cast weren't a bunch of millionaires either, they wanted the money, Brandon said fuck this shit why do I have to put up with this shit.. and said fuck you to all of them.

I hated that during this whole reunion, they keep showing him, and Jeff kept talking about how “today we’ll talk with Russell” and they let him talk for 10 seconds
So this must be the Brandon’s first reunion and the one that Phillip calls him out for when he was having his little meltdown on his second season. Phillip said, iirc, that Brandon was very disrespectful to russel behind the scenes. That’s probably why russel seems so salty and irritated at that moment because he was likely disrespected and embarrassed by his nephew soon before that probably in front of the other survivors too, Brandon is a punk
Not just behind the scenes. During the season he always claimed he was not like his uncle and that he wanted to clean the surname from what Russel did.

This season might make you feel bad for Brandon, but his second season is where his true colors show. It’s easy to coast along, but the minute things don’t go his way, is when he reacts worse than Russell.
Maybe because of this? Bro. He literally is one of the most emotionally fucked people in the shows history. People's weapons zed his faith against him, get ostracized from his family and berated from his uncle in front of everyone then gets asked to play only 6 months later with shitty life circumstances and you expect him to be stable?

All Russell had to say was, Why the hell did you give up Immunity at Final 6??? That was dumb. I mean, I like Russell Hantz, he is my favorite player ever, but... you are family with Brandon. It almost felt personal, and offensive in a slight way. Russell didn't have to dig in that way against Brandon.
@@ayedee6681 He's overrated. He only made the finals the second time because they filmed the shows back-to-back and no one on the cast got to see him play the first time. He had an advantage. He also wasn't smart enough to change up his game and played the same way AGAIN thinking he would get a different result with the finale. What a shocker: It was the same result. Most recently in Australia Survivor the guy came in 23rd place.
Very true, Brandon made one huge error that cost him the game. With that said, Russell wins Samoa easily if it was a modern season where the jury almost always respects gameplay over social game (sans Michelle beating Aubry). Parvati should have won HvV. Sandra was a horrible winner both times she won.
Russell and the rest of the Hantz family 100% beat the ever living shit out of Brandon after this season was over with how he played, and it shows when Brandon comes back in fans vs favorites. He’s a totally different person - the demeanor of changing the Hantz name and the God fearing individual is gone. He just wanted to see the tribe burn
actually it was Brandon's first season that changed him so much. He got taken advantage of because he was naive and him reflecting on that he decided to play the game differently. Brandon's blow up on Philip was staged, Brandon was fired from cbs so they staged a exit.
@@michaelbreaux-tj6mx lmao take off the tin foil hat you cant be fired from 1. a company you never worked for 2. it wasnt staged or else everyone there are really really good actors which i highly doubt
Like his game or not Russell got to the end and Brandon didn't. Brandon played a really shitty game and the only reason he made it as far as he did was that season was filled with weak players who were too scared to make a move.
Russel should have won every season he played. It shouldn’t matter if the jury hates you. If they hate you so badly, you must of played the greatest game of your life to make it to the end. Russel was robbed and Sandra shouldn’t have the same amount of Victories as the king Tony
I miss Russell…he was brutally honest in his game. Jurors hated him cause he played right. But they, the jurors, didn’t like it. He was definitely robbed each time.
@@Camille-wk9zsjurors hated him cause he was an awful person. Part of survivor is jury management. When you’re that unlikeable that you don’t have a rats ass chance of winning at final tribal that means you’re a terrible player because there is an entire portion of your strategy that makes it impossible to win
He's literally sitting there like a supervillain.
Bad take
I like that he offered not to criticize his nephew if the kid didn’t want to hear it.
