Idols are an essential part of Survivor, though. They weren't in the first ten seasons, but now it's not Survivor without idols. This is the opposite of Game Changers - instead of all three idols being sat on for so long, we're getting them played too frequently. Enough is enough.

They should have four per season, I'd think. One on each tribe, with one rehidden at the merge if available.

But it'd be a cool twist to have no idols - or just one at the merge - and not tell anybody.

Also, which beach did they merge to? Based on photographic evidence, it's the Hustlers, I think?

I don't get why Ashley was the target other than because of Chrissy's vendetta. Chrissy is the third-place goat here given her poor social play, dictatorial attitude, and lack of proactive game decisions.

Redemption Island is pure trash all the way through. Not a single good episode. Nothing about the first few episodes are "phenomenal" and I'm kinda baffled anybody actually managed to type that out. It's the first time I have ever seen that.

Russell finally getting his ass booted does not make the early season good. It's also plagued with Phillip, who is horrendous.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

The "Franchesqua" Tribal is a hysterical trainwreck that's absolutely glorious.
Phillip makes for a complex but detestable villain. Survivor is not as great when there's nobody you're rooting against (or for).
The first Elrod blindside is great TV, also, and that's where we get our first Andrea GIFs. Who would've thought back then that she'd become a Survivor legend?
Zapatera prematurely throwing a challenge to get rid of Russell was one of the most interesting things to happen during the Dark Ages.
Russell crying home to Mommy is a hysterical way to end the self-declared god's Survivor career.

Redemption Island is quite good early on, but it all falls apart because of exactly what Inviso (who, remember, isolates feelings by episode) stated: "I WILL DO AS YOU SAY MASTER ROB." Once Russell and Kristina Kell are gone, there's zero opposition and we get boring, predictable vote after boring, predictable vote. Except for the second Elrod blindside after he was a nimrod. But like I said, the final 11 onwards being completely unwatchable every minute taints the overall opinion of the season (which is still bottom tier) and its players for many. It does not change how great it started. It does not change how Andrea redeemed herself and has achieved legend status by reaching 100 days in three seasons.

South Pacific is even worse where there isn't a single good episode except maybe the final six.

BB16 is Redemption Island

btw this is a pretty apt comparison

Redemption Island was phenomenal for its first 3.5 episodes or so, but after that everything but the second half of the merge episode was utter shit. It's a very similar trajectory to BB16, starting off with potential and then having one glimmer of hope later, but no, just kidding, that "moment" just made everything worse going forward.

And I think Redemption Island is underrated because of how great it started, which people forget about because of how horrific every minute of the final 11 onward was. If things had kept up the quality of the first four episodes, it might've been considered one of the best seasons. BB16 is similar. Imagine if Cody HAD backdoored BMC against Brittany. All hell would break loose, one of the least likable people would be gone (and would never show up on Survivor), and Derrick might actually LOSE. But... yeah... that didn't happen...

Derrick was a phenomenal player but was absolutely dreadful TV. He did everything he could to take out the more interesting or rootable people to avoid drama. That includes Brittany, Donny, Zach (not rootable, but interesting), and Nicole (whom I liked in BB16 way more than in BB18). Meanwhile he kept BMC and Fankie around, alongside his lapdog Cody Calafiore and... one of the most hysterical joke characters they've ever had in Princess Victoria.

Fankie is the most insufferable person to ever be on a reality show, in my mind. Yes, he's worse than our President or any of his "pets" who at least had a couple of moments. Fankie was just insufferable every time he was on the screen, made worse by the fact that he thought America loved him until the "overwhelming no" gave him a dose of reality - the only "punishment" he got, which wasn't really game-related.

BB9 was still worse with an even less likable cast, a horrible winner, and just... boringness. But BB16, looking back, was just a bad season after week two. All hope of it being interesting ended when Cody C chose not to backdoor BMC. Everything after that was awful, except for BMC telling Fankie "Amber's gone because of you" and sitting out of the challenge, which was hysterical for all the wrong reasons but not enough to make things interesting moving forward.

I would be OK with someone passionately defending why BB16 is the worst though.

Predictable votes. Battle of the Block. Fankie. #TeamAmerica. Unexciting feeds after Joey/Alex, Devon, and Brittany left (the last one because of the soccer balls). Need I go on? A bad cast of sheep with an unexciting game, bad twists, and the least likable houseguest ever didn't exactly make it an entertaining season. I look back on it and I have nothing positive to say about it after the first two weeks. Truly an excruciating experience.

As far as survival stuff goes... yeah, Australia or Africa. I lean Africa because they legit had to make a wildlife-proof camp and stay up in shifts to watch for predators... And actually had an encounter.

Yeah, that's a good argument for Africa, but in Australia they had the flood and a lot of raw survival stuff going on - they were literally suffering out there. Production created the auction to ensure everybody got food in their bellies because they were dying out there. There's also Skupin's pig hunt, too, and of course him passing out into the fire.

You can't go wrong with either. The modern seasons that are brutal survival-wise, like Philippines and Cambodia, still focus more on strategy and can only spend so much time focusing on the dang rain making everybody miserable. Kaoh Rong had the MedEvacs, but only one of them was due to survivalist-related reasons (BMC's), while the others were an idiot and something we'd already seen twice before (Neal's leg infection being akin to Penner and Joe Dowdle).

Old BB is much better than what we have now. Much, much better. Even the slower seasons like 2 & 3 are worthwhile.

I can vouch for this, but man, are they SLOW. BB2 especially since it has a filler episode every week, given how there was no Veto! Shocking, isn't it? But that's what you'd expect from the first season (BB1 is non-canon and should be skipped). I only got through a few episodes because of time :/

Big Brother peaked from 6-8. BB9 was an absolutely dreadful season and should never under any circumstance be rewtached. BB10 was the end of an era - things started derailing afterward and not just because they struggled to top their best newbie season.

Survivor seasons are like 16-18 hours or so. Most shows have like 24-30 hours per season, hence why Survivor does two a year. Two seasons is more TV time than most shows get.

Big Brother is just too long to go back and rewatch in full unless it's one of the god-tier seasons. I could go back and rewatch BB6, BB7, or BB10, but anything else? No thanks. (Darkx, I suggest you watch those three in full, because there are too many highlights to recap properly. Same goes for BB8, which is an extremely polarizing season. Back then, seasons were a little shorter than they are today, too.)

I don't even watch Big Brother anymore, btw, because I miss the quality that it delivered back then. Now, they pluck too many schmucks off the streets and it leads to too many showmances and too many bad players. It simply doesn't interest me anymore.

Ya, I was hoping for like a newly-wed type game where the two have to think what the other is gonna pick. Do that at least.

I'd like it in a way where the castaway shows the first marble. So the loved one has a baseline to discern if there might be a pattern, like BWBW or BBWBBW or BWBBWB. Obviously, if there was a tie because of that pattern stuff for a few rounds, they would add a purple marble (merge color) to make things more complicated. Easily workable challenge. Better than the unwatchable waste of time we got.

I also believe this is the first time anyone has been sent home with one vote by way of an idol. But that Tribal was hectic and the buildup to it was crazy. Best episode of the season, even with the reward non-challenge. A 100% luck challenge has no place in Survivor. "Rock draw decides who wins reward" is not good TV. Should have instead been them both picking rocks at the same time, consciously choosing black or white. That is "being in sync."

But yeah, LOVED the second half of this episode. Optimistic going forward!

Eras of Survivor:
Old School: 1-12. A much simpler time with less strategy and more loyalty to alliances. Cause of transition: Hidden Immunity Idols
Middle Ages: 13-20. Constantly evolving game with increasingly intense blindsides. Loyalty to 1-2 people was typical. Cause of transition: HvV = the Fall of Rome.
Dark Ages: 21-26. Too many "mactor" types. Poor gameplay. Three Pagongings and two additional bad seasons. Only Philippines is any good. Cause of transition: Malcolm Freberg.
Big Movez Era: 27-34. Dictated by players making crazy moves to shift the game. No loyalty to anyone. Some moves were reckless. Cause of transition: Era founders Ciera, Tony, and Malcolm leaving in the first four episodes of Game Changers.
Gimmicks Era: 35-present: Too much production influence to artificially create drama with twists as opposed to letting players play. We'll see how long this one lasts.

Nicaragua was the last "pure" season. Then we got 5/6 seasons of newbies vs. veterans in a row, 4 of which are widely regarded as terrible.

Nicaragua was still a "bad" season, too. By your logic, One World would also be a "pure" season - and it's a better one than Nicaragua, even if only slightly.

Also, Kaoh Rong was amazing. Great cast, villains to hate, heroes to root for, unpredictable, and because of the medevacs, we got a bunch of character scenes rather than obnoxious strategy talk.

The ending ruined it for me so so much. Three MedEvacs also was no fun. I want to see people making moves and playing the game, not people being pulled undeservingly. BMC was pulled due to production negligence. Joe would not have been pulled in the early seasons, when the medics would have just taken care of the problem. Back in the day, MedEvacs were always in situations where the individual needed to go to a hospital.

I know I'm in the minority here, but the horrific finale - including both the stupid "Vote out a juror" twist and the winner - just destroyed it for me after the MedEvacs already made me leery. I like the character scenes as a counterbalance to the mile-a-minute strategy, but not if it's anticlimactically pulling people from the game. It's just an enjoyment thing. When I look back at Kaoh Rong, I see it as a season where the petty villains got their way in the end and the heroine lost. I just don't enjoy things the same way you all do, I guess.

Dark Ages also includes Nicaragua >_>

And that ranking sucks. Mine is:
Cambodia > Cagayan > Millennials vs. Gen X > Blood vs. Water > SJDS > HHH >>>>>>>>>> Game Changers > Kaoh Rong > Worlds Apart

I think I'm the only person here who didn't like Kaoh Rong...

Yeah, I'd say mid-tier is about right. Some ups and downs, but a lot of averageness and an oversaturation of advantages. It's better than Game Changers, at least, but can't hold a candle to MvX.

Turns out 2017 is the worst year of Survivor/BB since 2011. That said, the HHH finale is supposed to be something really special, so let's hope it is and it doesn't end up being horrific like Kaoh Rong's (which SHOULD have been a thriller).
