Survivor: Generic Thread (No Spoilers)

I never have preseason favorites anymore because they always disappoint me

Morgan sounded like a total airhead to me.

I tuned in to TVGN and they were playing the finale of Survivor Pearl Islands. I wonder if they're replaying old seasons to promote Survivor Cagayan.

So since I finally saw all of the interviews, my favorites are Jeremiah, J/Tia, Tasha, and Spencer (he looks like he'll fun to root against). Least favorites are Morgan and Sarah (how many times did she mention she was a cop in 3 **** minutes?). Interesting bunch for the most part though.

So I've watched the first two seasons, Micronesia, Gabon, HVV, Philippines, Caramoan, and BVW. What other standout seasons are there?

All stars one was good

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;394275]So I've watched the first two seasons, Micronesia, Gabon, HVV, Philippines, Caramoan, and BVW.

I think I can better tell you which seasons to watch if I know what type of people you like watching.

[QUOTE=TheFeedMachi;394289]Of the seasons you have watched, which contestants were your favorite? I think I can better tell you which seasons to watch if I know what type of people you like watching.[/QUOTE] Hmm, Parvati, Jerri, Corinne, Malcolm, Penner, Ciera, Cirie, Colby, Randy, Crystal, Kelly (Borneo).

I would recommend Tocantins and Cook Islands. Cook Islands already has 2 of your favorites in addition to some other great personalities while Tocantins is my favorite season with a ton of great personalities. Tocantins is a little slow in the early part of the season though with a lot of it spent on character development and then it becomes fantastic after the merge.

Has anyone listened to Corinne's breakdown of the Survivor: Cagayan cast on Rob's podcast? It's pretty hilarious!

Who do you guys think is the best Survivor player and best to never win?

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;396417]Who do you guys think is the best Survivor player and best to never win?[/QUOTE] I would say Parvati is one of the best players. She has a strong social game and a great competitor. As for the best to never win, the one that comes to mind is Ozzy.

My best player would be Parv with the best to never win being Cirie.

Best player- Parvati. Not to win- Cirie or Ozzy

Where does Cagayan rank with the rest of the seasons for everyone?

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;404675]Where does Cagayan rank with the rest of the seasons for everyone?[/QUOTE] It's pretty high up there, but I'll wait to see how the rest of the season plays out before making my final decision. It's at least top 10 if not top 5.

[QUOTE=LurkerNoMore;404677]It's pretty high up there, but I'll wait to see how the rest of the season plays out before making my final decision.

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;404686]Yeah, just wondering because I've heard people say if the end game is just as good as the earlier part of the game, it could be top 3.[/QUOTE] It's very possible. This season has been awesome, I thought Philippines and Blood vs Water were good, but this has blown both out of the water. Best season since Heroes vs Villains and Gabon IMO.

[QUOTE=LurkerNoMore;404688]It's very possible. This season has been awesome, I thought Philippines and Blood vs Water were good, but this has blown both out of the water. Best season since Heroes vs Villains and Gabon IMO.[/QUOTE] My thoughts exactly!

Yep we have to wait to see the final 3 and the winner.. as much as I love the pre-merge and just for that it should be everyone's top 10, pre-merge really doesn't matter... In fact to name a few I LOVED South Pacific and Caramoan's pre-merge but they're my least favorite seasons along with Redump**** Island. To me the winner and the final 3 are the final stamp on the season. If I don't like the winner, the season is ruined. It can go from #1 to #17 at the worst very quickly.. because when I think of a Survivor season 95% of the time I think of the winner of that season first and if I don't like the winner, I don't like the season. But this isn't always true. I remember not liking Bob winning but Gabon is pretty much a perfect season. I'm still cringing from Cockroach winning.

You liked Caramoan's premerge? I thought it was terrible and picked up a lot at the merge. I thought Sugar should have won Gabon, but she ****** too many people off and she didn't care to win--she didn't even try to defend her gameplay at the FTC.

Sugar just road Bob and Matty's coattails the whole time aside from when she was on exile island

Sugar ran Gabon the entire season. She is the reason Bob made it as far as he did, let alone the FTC.

She did? Maybe I need to rewatch it

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;406577]Sugar ran Gabon the entire season. She is the reason Bob made it as far as he did, let alone the FTC.[/QUOTE] IMO she never ran the season. It was more that people ran her lol. Ace had her under her thumb for a while until she was tricked by Kenny and Crystal to backstab Ace. Since then she just followed Kenny, Crystal, and Matty to the final 6 and then after getting rid of Kenny and Crystal made the final tribal council.

I decided to take a look at Survivor for the first time so I watched Blood vs. Water season and I have to say I liked it, i like the format i liked the cast even though it was the first time i ever saw them on TV (except for Hayden) and I even had favorites (Ciera, Laura, Hayden and at first Brad). I liked how the votes went down at the end (especially the one where Katie was voted off). The challenges were decent, I enjoyed most of them and the duels were good too. As for the finale; I was shocked to see Tyson win after that emotional speech from Monica, but I was glade someone who fought hard for the win won. I will be watching the newest season of Survivor and the past seasons as well.

Great cast, challenges, and tribal councils/blindsides.

Apparently some of the few legit fans were voted out early too like Laura.
