I realise it is hard to understand, and it is hard to explain. I just feel that all of your episodes are melded into one huge one, and that each episode can't stand on it's own without the rest of the season to support it. I feel that there needs to be something that is established at the start (this is the situation, and something is brewing). Then throughout the episode, the should build up of this/these situation(s). And at the end of the episode, it is resolved one way or another (either the underdog managing to blindside the top dog, the guy playing the middle ends up getting the boot, all the tension is put to rest as someone gets medevaced, whatever.

Like Kaoh Rong for example, take the second-to-last episode. We start the episode with Tai feeling betrayed by his alliance, and there is now a lot of tension between Michele and Tai (that is what has been established). As the episode progresses, wow, a change of events and Tai and Michele are left at camp together to bond (This is the build-up of the situation that has been established). Now of course, something else that was established (Aubry siding with Cydney and being in control) is further explored at Reward when the two now have some friction between them since they are both huge threats. All of this is building up what the individual episode is about, all the while fitting into the storyline of the whole season. Then, the episode is resolved by Joe getting med-evaced, and all the tension being put to rest.

I think that as I said, your episodes tend to rely on people remembering what has happened in the previous episodes too much, and there isn't a real episodic arch of each episode.

Does that make sense? I don't really know. I've tried to explain it as best I can, but to be honest, there isn't much to critique you on. You're a great author, and I love your episodes anyway. :D
