Added DiffLines:

* CrossesTheLineTwice: In the first "Survivor" episode, by sheer coincidence, the randomly-chosen teams end up with all the white contestants on one team, and all the BIPOC contestants on the other. A few contestants lampshade how unfortunate the optics are, while Grant promptly turns to his teammates and says, "Let's do this for white people!" Unsurprisingly, this teammates immediately ask if they can kick Grant off, and then refuse to let him suggest a team name.
* NightmareFuel: "Deja Vu" gets surprisingly really, really creepy, especially in the back half of the episode. Between Roscoe the MonsterClown, the time loop that changes ever-so-slightly every time, the weird glitching and inserts as the intro plays, and the overall uncanny and borderline surreal nature of the episode, many viewers have compared the episode to an AnalogHorror flick.
* SignatureScene: Brennan's RageBreakingPoint and subsequent rant in "Yes or No" is the most shared and quoted moment of the series.
