In fairness, it does have the best endgame between seasons 1-3 but that's not saying much.
Also in fairness, the format of Survivor just causes a lot of boring and/or predictable finishes so it's hard to bash Borneo on a weak finish when it wasn't
that weak compared to a lot of seasons.
It's rare that you see an actual eventful/entertaining endgame... Cagayan, SJDS, Pearl Islands, China, even MvGx & Kaoh Rong come to mind as seasons that didn't slow down at the end. They are pretty far up among my favorite seasons of Survivor mainly because that's a big advantage over many seasons that just kinda die out.
Borneo definitely slowed down though... one of the biggest moments during the last couple of boots was like, Kelly & Susan's argument which wasn't anything spectacular, and there wasn't much else aside from an entertaining confessional here and there.
