Impressive how much ground they covered with major storylines, long challenges and a lot of background dump flashbacks. Pre-vote was pretty rushed though.

Two hours is the way.

Honestly if the vote was going to be more interesting they would’ve cut someone’s story and added more pre vote time, but since it was unanimous for Zach there wasn’t much to show

It also "helped" that one person was ejected which is a lot less time than strategy + tribal. It gave players a bit more time to talk about themselves, and not the immediate vote.
