A vent about vents (or, omg WATCH THE SHOW)

I think the title gets pretty close to it but so many complaints I've seen are answered by watching the show. Like, where's Sammi? With his grandmother like he's been since Season 1! What about Tai's career? She was impeached but loaded! How did they build huts? Survival guy left survival books and they're all literate!

I don't think it is this show specifically, but so many people seem to approach this show as if the writers have IQs in the negatives and the morals of Jack the Ripper. They know Shauna is not a 'good person' (whatever that means) and that Tai is an adulterer and that Misty is, well, Misty. They also know that seasons have more than two episodes. They know resources are limited in the woods. These are all choices.

I'm not saying this show is without flaws, but I honest to god want to do a thread where I answer every person's question about plot holes or dropped plotlines. That or do a media literacy boot camp.

Overall, this show is so interesting and there are so many smart commenters here and on other platforms. I just wish we approached the show with a bit more humility and wonder.
