This Season featured an initial gender divide and possibly the best BS artist Survivor has ever seen. It' s Survivor: Vanuatu
Many people who have done rankings put this season low. I' m a fan of this season because it what we thought was going to be predictable- The men getting pagonged after the merge- ended in Chris winning. I' m still not sure how he did it, but this season is underrated by many for sure.
We're into the top ten. seasons now. Next on the list is Survivor: Palau
Almost everyone knows "the story of Ulong"and how all of their members were eliminated one by one until only Stephanie remained. It was a very unique season to say the least. Tom Westman is still seen as one of America' s favorite winners ever. That being said, this season also had a double elimination twist at the beginning that eliminated two people on day 2. I thought it robbed Wanda and Jonathan, as they didn't even get to join a tribe. Also,this season possessed the twin annoyances of Katie Gallagher and Caryn Groedel. All in all, just good enough for a top 10 spot.
Survivor's most recent Season ranks in next. Survivor: Philippines.
This season was miles better than the train wrecks of SP and One World that preceded them. A three tribe twist and 3 med-evaced castaways returning made for an interesting run. Also featured Survivor's biggest underdog, Denise, win after she survived every tribal council that season, never once getting a tribal immunity. Refreshing to say the least
Ok, I 'll cave. It' s the one you've been waiting for. Survivor: Cook Islands
This Season came under fire from critics early from having a twist where the 4 initial tribes were divided by race. I thought the twist was interesting but very controversial. The cast as a whole was somewhat disappointing and colorless *cough* Becky *cough*. But this season' s redeeming factors lay In Yul' s brilliant gameplay that lead the aitu 4 to the finals. A decent season overall.
Now the choices begin to get harder. The first appearance of Boston Rob and one of the worst Survivor Winners ever. Survivor: Marquesas
I loved the cast. Rob, Kathy, Sean, they were all awesome. Maraamu was an especially entertaining tribe with their "Morning Radio Show." Moreover, the pivotal power shift and the destruction of the incredibly smug Rotu 4 was refreshing to watch. But this season loses points due to Vee's win, when the title should have gone to Kathy. Also, the rock draw at the final 4 was a complete screw up on CBS's part when it eliminated Paschal, the only person without immunity to not get any votes.
Going back with the seasons this time, this season featured an early young vs old divide and a her likeable wiinner. Survivor: Africa
I haven' t seen much of this season, it featured the first ever tribe switch and Lex going ape when he got 1 vote. It' s this low on the list because I' m really not that familiar with it. I' m pretty sure Ethan was an ok winner, though.
