season 1 of the amazing race feels the same to me - the editing, the spirit of the show, and the attitudes of the players involved are so radically different than any season after, because it was new for everyone. they're both some of my favorite seasons of their respective shows, but also feel next-to-impossible to rate alongside anything else

borneo, specifically, still holds up really well as long as you're okay with the drastic change in pace, especially compared to modern seasons. the characterization is still really good and the whole dynamic is a lot of fun.

i dunno how any list like this has link to the past below phantom hourglass

like i consider myself somewhat an apologist for ph, but good god what

Yeah I'm somewhat of a PH apologist too (I actually like the ocean temple) but yeah


i assume the ocean temple is the part you're forced to repeat sections of over and over? yeah i like it too. i've never been one to hate backtracking, and i think the way it's implemented (with the combination of stealth/normal fighting and continued rewards) is pretty clever

if it's some other part, whoops, pretend i just talked about that instead

i agree, but i think for some reason the end result weighs negatively upon kaoh rong in most people's eye for whatever reason. like, i was bummed when the season was over, but when i look back on it i am just immediately drawn to the great characters and storylines, and the roller coaster drama episode after episode. i think it'd absolutely crush it on rewatch too, but that's just speculation lol

why on earth was gabon in the old top 10 lol

kaoh rong should totes be there tho - i don't get everyone complaining about scot and jason when their whole point of existing was to get an incredible comeuppance at the hands of tai, literally one of the most likeable survivor humans of all time

like i said though, if aubry wins kaoh rong has near-universal praise and is viewed as a top-5, cagayan-level modern season. yes, that didn't happen, but what we got was about that level; people just can't get over michele winning :\

This season was initially supposed to have a 20-player cast and Redemption Island.

hmm i knew about so kim and her mom being left out, but the redemption island stuff is news to me.
crazy how much worse that season could've been under the wrong circumstances

great post-merge cast. pre-merge isnt great but it had the exile alliance and 16-people seasons are always just better at developing characters. a couple of other rad 16-person seasons havent shown up yet either...

i actually rewatched the first half of this (there were episodes on youtube at the time, but vanished halfway through) and still liked it a lot. maybe the ending isnt as thrilling, but it also avoided the basic "pagonging" that seemed inevitable after season 1. good cast too. dunno, i don't pretend to understand the outliers most of the time!!

but what about heroes v villains? i'd say that more DIRECTLY contributed to the problems of the following six seasons, and i'd be quite surprised if that's anywhere outside the top 10.

at the risk of throwing out a super hot take, a lot of my interest in survivor comes from a background of watching tons of game shows and sports growing up. in those competitions, sometimes players' personalities shine, but the game at its core is the most important part, and why i as a fan am compelled to keep watching.

on survivor, as a longform "reality" show, i think it's definitely more important to showcase personalities and keep fans invested, but i still come back to that background of being excited and compelled by the game itself. in cambodia, we had the benefit of already "knowing" most of the cast, and so seeing them go at it from week to week, being unsure of where anything was going, and seeing how the action played out was a big part of the drama. i'd still contest any notion that all the players were "gamebots" or whatever, but regardless i also feel like i didn't need a detailed storyline on who abi, savage, or keith was to get a sense of who they were. it didn't have to be a "big character" season like exile island to be exciting, and that's okay.
there's not one single recipe to survivor being good, and for that reason especially, i don't think cambodia "ruined" survivor despite definitely being a contributor to its recent bad seasons - things will change, ideas will work/not work, and some of us will move on. that's just inevitable.

(and yes, fwiw, please feel free to like or dislike the season as you see fit. the result isn't the thing that some of us find irritating, it's the insistence that those of us who love cambodia are somehow in the wrong. this is on inviso more than you, of course)

i mean its not like this wasnt expected, but its still disappointing

like i love some of survivor's big characters and think there's too much idol stuff too, but the idea that anyone would watch the show for reasons and characters other than those favored by a certain subset of people has become a crazy idea among some members of this community and i just dunno what to say about that other than "survivor doesnt exist just for you" tbqh
