Millennials vs Gen X is finished. I must say I actually enjoyed the season, it wasn't like the greatest I've seen but I was going in expecting much worse. The season did focus a bit too much on game play and the cast wasn't the greatest ever but it was entertaining throughout. I ended up liking Adam in the end and I'm glad he won for his mum, Hannah did deserve at least a few votes though.

Rankings:

1. Michaela
2. Hannah
3. Jay
4. Jessica
5. Michelle
6. Ken
7. CeCe
8. Figgy

9. Adam
10. Brett
11. Rachel
12. Lucy
13. Mari
14. Taylor
15. Sunday
16. David
17. Chris
18. Will

19. Paul
20. Zeke

Excited for Miss Michaela's win in Game Changers.

Started Vanuata earlier, really liking it so far (well the bits on the boys tribe are kinda dull but the women's tribe are a MESS and it's brilliant to watch). Just finished episode two with Dolly's blindside. Eliza/Twila/Scout/Ami are my top four at the moment.

Macie Lightfoot 02-01-2017 11:03 PM

ooh you're gonna have fun

JerseyWins 02-01-2017 11:19 PM

I reeeeally liked Twila & Eliza and I was still super bored getting through that season.

TomC 03-01-2017 08:27 AM

Vanuatu was entertaining enough and has one of my favourite FTCs of the first fourteen series, but my biggest issue is that when it came down to it there was no one really to root for. A just below middle of the road season IMO.

Watch Palau through Panama next!

Daniel-X 24-03-2017 10:51 PM

This NEEDS rebooting soon. I shall be watching Cagayan, Worlds Apart and Kaoh Rong over the next few weeks so I can get more understanding of a lot of Game Changer players like Tai, Debbie, Sarah, Tony, Hali etc.

Cagayan is incredible. Kaoh Rong is great. Worlds Apart is dire.

This although I don't think Worlds Apart was terrible. It's kind of a unique season and I thought it was ok as someone who enjoyed at least a couple of the castaways that everyone despises from that season. :joker:

Any type of liking I had for the season was mainly due to Rodney. :fan:

TomC 26-03-2017 09:47 PM

did you finish Vanuatu?

Macie Lightfoot 26-03-2017 10:13 PM

Cagayan is..... okay. Definitely overrated but it's fine I guess.

Unfortunately not. I got sidetracked but I will watch it eventually. I'd rather watch some of the later ones now so I can get to know some of the 'Game Changers' a bit better.

tbh i didn't mind it either but I think this is because people said it was the all time worst season before I watched it and it was above the incredibly low bar I set for it. I still wouldnt recommend it as a good season but Rodney was okay, I liked Mike and Shirin, and although the villains of the series were horrendous and infuriating, at least they made me feel something unlike some of the worst seasons of Survivor

overrated or "just fine" is what it is not

Tony, Trish, and Sarah :clap2:
J'Tia, Kass, Spencer and Tash :clap2:
Morgan and Brice :clap2: (Okay this was the only tribe that was a dud but the other two more than made up for it)

Yeah Cagayan is definitely one of the best seasons ever. It's full of drama, great characters and also good strategy. It's almost universally regarded as one of Survivors best seasons ever.

Macie Lightfoot 27-03-2017 01:05 AM

Cagayan had a great pre-merge. That's it. The post-merge is a significant downgrade because it revolves around two camerahogs constantly on the hunt for Idols and that's just unimpressive.

reece(: 27-03-2017 01:06 AM

The merge episode is the best one tho!

I don't think so because we got a lot of great moments from
Spoiler:

MalnuTrisha, Ninja Woo, Tony and his spy shack, Tasha the beast at challenges and Kass and her permanent grin

So, this is being rebooted after like a three and a half year (?!?!?!) absence! Idk I’ve been struggling to find something to watch in lockdown and ended up coming back to Survivor.

I’ll try and watch seasons in order this time :joker: (idk why 16 year old me was just impatient for some seasons like HvsV and Pearl Islands). I’m three episodes into Marquesas currently and it took me a little while to get back into the show after such a long break :laugh: it’s got off to a pretty decent start although Boston Rob is getting way too much edit. Ew.

I don’t think it’s QUITE got going yet, things are still a little slow and the dynamics are changing but it’s been entertaining so far. Kathy and Sarah are my initial faves.

Daniel-X 01-07-2020 01:07 AM

Just finished the merge episode of Marquesas. It’s really started to pick up now and I’ve been enjoying it a lot more. The jury’s still out atm on who’s my favourite and who’s not, nobody has particularly stood out at me but I do like Kathy/Neleh/Vecepia.

So glad Boston Rob has gone :love: couldn’t stand him on HvsV and couldn’t stand him on Marquesas (unfortunately I am aware he manages to somehow do the show SIX ?!?! times... yuck)

Macie Lightfoot 01-07-2020 05:08 AM

Yes and those are his two best appearances :)

JerseyWins 01-07-2020 07:30 AM

Love how this thread last ended with a Cagayan coronation :worship: Soooo good

Daniel-X 01-07-2020 07:12 PM

Down to F6 now, will probably finish tonight. It’s been a pretty good season and I have been engaged but I can’t really explain what’s so great about it? :joker:. I think it feels very authentic (and I haven’t seen a season for years now tbf) and there is plenty of ongoing drama/storylines to keep me entertained but I can’t pinpoint (as of yet) any truly memorable moments.

Neleh is my fave :love: but I like pretty much everyone left in the F6 (Vecepia and Robert are a little UTR but they’re fine)

Daniel-X 02-07-2020 11:59 AM

Finished Marquesas. Overall thought it was a pretty decent series, not one of my very favourites but it was definitely fun to watch. Vecepia is a decent winner but I would’ve much rather the win had gone to Neleh, but she fluffed in the jury questions :(. I *might* watch Thailand next if I do decide to watch in order but I’ve never heard anything good about it so idk :joker:

1. Neleh
2. Kathy
3. Sean
4. Sarah
5. Gina
6. Vecepia
7. Patricia

8. Gabriel
9. Paschal
10. Zoe
11. Robert
12. Tammy
13. Hunter
14. Peter

15. John
16. Boston Rob
