With the new era of shorter seasons and evolving twists, Survivor continues to reinvent itself while maintaining the core survival elements that have kept fans engaged across 50 seasons and counting.

More firsts: -Palau was the first season to feature 20 players, although 2 were eliminated before any tribal council, the first to feature Exile Island and was the first season in which one tribe won all immunity challenges

Just wondering... why does pretty much everyone, including Jeff Probst, say that Thailand was a very bad season? I actually loved it. Helen's jury speech to Brian was epic, in my opinion.

That final 4 was crap. They were awful.
They're going to hate me for saying this, but this final four of Brian, Clay, Helen, and Jan was the least likable final four ever. And that, in a nutshell, explains why Thailand is No. 9 for me. There was so much negativity, with Ted and Ghandia's he said/she said sexual ''grinding'' incident, and Robb strangling Clay during the ''attack zone'' challenge. And then you felt like you needed a shower after watching Brian play, because he was so sleazy. It was a mean-spirited season. There was a lot of hostility, a lot of ugliness, and that's not fun to watch. We love conflict on Survivor, but conflict that is fun to watch, not conflict that is uncomfortable to watch. It's kinda odd that on the season I liked the least, they decided to ask me to host the reunion special for the first time, although I honestly think that's just because they couldn't find anybody else. I don't think it was that they suddenly thought I could do it. They just couldn't find anybody they liked, so they were like, ''Okay, we'll try Jeff.''

There's been lots of discussion on various boards as to who, physically, is the best challenger ever. I would personally say Ozzy. Here's a list of who won the most individual challenges in their season (i.e. after a merge), both immunity and reward. Borneo: Kelly - 4/8 immunities, 1/5 rewards Australian Outback: Colby - 5/8 immunities, 3/5 rewards Africa: Lex - 3/8 immunities, 1/4 rewards Marquesas: Kathy (2/5 rewards), Tammy (0/5 rewards), Vecepia (0/5 rewards) - 2/8 immunities Thailand: Brian - 3/6 immunities, 2/4 rewards Amazon: Jenna - 4/8 immunities, 0/4 rewards Pearl Islands: Darrah - 3/8 immunities, 1/5 rewards All-Stars: Boston Rob - 4/8 immunities, 2/5 rewards Vanuatu: Chris - 3/8 immunities, 1/5 rewards Palau: Tom - 5/7 immunities, 1/3 rewards Guatemala: Rafe - 3/8 immunities, 0/4 rewards Panama: Terry - 5/7 immunities, 4/7 rewards Cook Islands: Ozzy - 5/6 immunities, 1/2 rewards Fiji: Boo (3/5), Yau-Man (3/5 rewards) - 2/6 immunities China: Peih-Gee (1/6 rewards), Amanda (2/6 rewards) - 2/7 immunities Micronesia: Erik - 3/7 immunities, 2/4 rewards Gabon: Bob - 3/6 immunities, 2/2 rewards Tocantins: JT - 3/8 immunities, 3/4 rewards Samoa: Brett - 3/9 immunities, 1/3 rewards

It was disapointing when Ozzy lost and he deserved it. It to an extent could be viewed as like this last season with Natalie winning.
mr.unamazing;146928 wrote:No way! Not even close. I think that Yul and Ozzy were the best two in that season and both deserved to be there. Yul was the master strategist and best social player in the game; Ozzy was the best physical attribute and provider in the game. It definitely was a hard decision for them.

I think Tom was the best at the challenges in Survivor History. And i say this because there were many Team Immunities and Rewards he won by himself for Koror. Statistically i guess some people were better than him, but i remember being amazed by Tom during the challenges when i watched Palau. Here is who i would have voted for each season: 1. Kelly 2. Colby 3. Kim J 4. Neleh 5. Brian 6. Jenna 7. Sandra 8. Amber 9. Twila 10. Tom 11. Steph 12. Danielle 13. Yul 14. Earl 15. Courtney 16. Eh I have no idea, i think they both sucked.. But if it were a final 3, i would have voted Cirie 17. Susie 18. JT 19. Natalie.

I didn't like her in the begining of FvF, but torwards the end I really liked her. I definetly don't think that she got enough credit for a lot of things that she did.
I don't get the love for Cirie, I think she deserved to be invited back for Fans vs Favorites but not for All Stars 2. I don't even remember what season she was on, Panama? I liked her for the most part till she thought she was entitled to the money on Fans vs Favorites because she was poor....I think her poor atheletic performance and surviving skills are going to get her the early boot on AS2.

Oh, how I miss the tribal swab it is was such a good change. Also wasn't during the episode during which Russell colapsed did Jeff say that was his scariest moment on the show because for me it probab...
