I really like Mari separately from Survivor. Was totally rooting for her going into this. But she
was kind of cringe-y on the show with all the video game references. She was obviously playing to the camera and giving them the exact soundbites they want. "As a millennial...", "We were raised in from of a television screen!", etc.
She was definitely trying a lil too hard. Which she kind of touched on in her "day after" interview about how she as a woman, minority, etc. felt pressured to smile/put on a show even when she didn't want to. And how this show made her realize that.
Intelligent gal. She even figured out the "Millennials vs Gen X" twist before they were informed of it; the exact title.
I would love to see her back on a 'Second Chance' season. And as a female, minority, fan favorite one timer, her chances aren't
too bad to make it on a ballot.
