00:09

Mohr watched shows right there Can a paragraph two skin

00:13

down there The originals rob jenna survivors and around location

00:17

find food and challenge winners But the last minutes of

00:20

one million dollars payout the show focuses less on actual

00:24

survival skills and more on the alliances and conflict between

01:38

watched shows on tv since his first u S season 00:01:41.447 --> [endTime] in two thousand That's it We're survived
