So I've been listening to a lot of Survivor ATF tonight - for my sins - and Gabon (one of my most recently re-watched seasons)'s general bat**** craziness probably makes a little more sense when viewed in the context of the revelation that Fang were accidentally given potentially fatal hallucinogenic drugs at a reward

I am watching Survivor for the first time ever. Seen the first 4 eps of Season 1. I am enjoying it, it's pretty different to anything I've seen before, and Susan, Richard and Jenna are my current favourites.

Borneo I've only seen eight seasons (I'm on my ninth) but it's definitley in my top three so far. Kelly Wigle was my favourite from that season. I loved Richard and Jenna too though. Sue was my fave for a while but I went off her eventually, I won't spoil why but it will be OBVIOUS when you get to it.

Assuming you know little about Survivor and like Borneo enough to watch more, I am so very jealous of what you have ahead of you to experience for the first time

Kelly has been pretty UTR so far. There hasn't been as much gameplay/strategy as I expected, but still really enjoying it. When does the merger take place?

I am really enjoying it, but I kind of want to finish BB14!

I've PM'd you the link

[TomC]

Five episodes in, I finally feel ready to do a ranking.

Episode 5
1. Jenna
2. Susan
3. Richard
4. Greg
5. Sean
6. Kelly
7. Rudy
8. Joel
9. Colleen
10. Gervase
11. Gretchen
12. Dirk

It's hard though, cos people like Joel and Gretchen have had hardly any airtime so there ain't much to go on.

Going to continue my Philippines watch now

Believe me, most seasons of Survivor > most seasons of BBUK > any other reality show

I am missing Miss Gina Rio though

[MB.]

Well you can watch Miss Sue Hawk instead

[MB.]

ps I've decided that after having watched Caramoan, I'll cleanse my palate by going back over the prequel-in-name-only Micronesia next

[TomC]

Shame that hottie Joel got voted out

[TomC]

Poor Jenna not getting a tape I'm kind of going off Rich - he's just so smug. He reminds me of Richard from TA S11.

And wtf at Rudy saying that Greg's tape from home seemed incestuous

[TomC]

Also, I don't like this domination by the Tagi Alliance, mainly cos my favourite isn't in it, and I know she'll get picked off very soon

[TomC]

Episode 8 Rankings
1. Jenna
2. Susan
3. Greg
4. Colleen
5. Rudy
6. Sean
7. Kelly
8. Richard
9. Gervase

[TomC]

Go Colleen, clock evil Rich

[Daniel-X]

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I don't really like Colleen and Greg.

[TomC]

Colleen is a bit meh.

I can't believe Jenna is gone </3

[TomC]

And I'm glad Kelly has left the alliance.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Cooleen is amazing wtf people

[JerseyWins]

Started watching Samoa. Done for now until maybe tonight but 3 episodes in and I'm liking the boot order so far.

Spoiler:

Marissa, Betsy and Mike = meeeh & Ben sucked.

I was leaning towards not liking Russell in like the first episode but I like him quite a bit now. So far it seems like the Russell Hantz show on the Foa Foa tribe. Also, I know it's because they just haven't gone to Tribal Council but I feel like I don't know much about the other tribe except for Shambo (who is pretty likable) and Yasmin (who I'm not sure yet but think I like).

[TomC]

Gosh, I really do dislike Richard very much. 'It is so very, very naive for the others to even be contemplating making an alliance at this stage'

Well, actually Kelly could quite easily flip flop and get Sean on her side with Gervasse and Colleen and Rich is gone?

These castaways just aren't cut throat enough though!
