This season was... okay. Very much A Season of Survivor. There were some highs and some lows, some good episodes and some bad ones. Ultimately the biggest issue I have is the cast. Just look at how toneless the chart is! Regardless of interesting things occasionally happening, I could only be so entertained because I care SO LITTLE about this people. Like, Gabe was supposed to be a villain?!?! Kyle was supposed to be a fallen angel hero?!?! Rachel is supposed to be some dominant winner we praise?!?! It all just feels like a complete parody and joke at this point.

1. Genevieve (mother. Great arc of someone who wanted to play cutthroat, betrayed her #1 ally, and then realized that it sucks hurting people so she decided to not form ANY close relationships with anyone, only to then later realize that she missed out on connecting with people. I still feel like they could've done a better job with her arc, but it was lowkey one of the better character arcs in recent Survivor history so it's an easy #1 for me)
2. Rome (I don't even like him that much really but he was SUCH a lightning rod for conflict and the season really died quite a bit when he was booted so I'll give him his flowers here)
3. Sue (could've been #1 or #2 if she had any sort of edit in the post-merge. Yes she's MAGA but she was a great pre-merge presence and definitely has pop as a character)

4. Sol (a fun, likable presence albeit not an exciting one. Very much The One Normal Person who was dealing with a bunch of crazy people, especially Rome, and he handled it well and had his moments)
5. Caroline (she was fine! Likable, had decent allies, randomly would get REALLY excited for anyone doing anything good in the game alol she's a fun presence)
6. Sam (I still don't understand his arc and why he was seen as such a threat but he was moderately fun and likable and it was fun watching him cockroach his way to 2nd place against all odds)
7. Teeny (such a weird edit but endgame Teeny was HILARIOUS with their hatred for str8 white men. So cringe and quite a bit of secondhand embarrassment but I admire their authenticity even while being totally deranged)
8. Sierra (her and Sam being seen as some weird non-showmance was kinda fun but she wasn't that good)
9. Kyle (he seemed nice but I still don't really care about him)
10. Rachel (likable on occasion but ultimately SUCH a randomly forgettable character and player. Still can't believe this is our winner but here we are)
11. Andy (fun pre-merge arc turned boring gamebot post-merge lands him right in the middle roughly. It's like the Emily arc but not nearly as good)
12. Anika (people seem to really like her but I got nothing. Fun reaction to being blindsided I guess but who cares?)
13. Tiyana (people seem to really like her but she's such a nobody)
14. TK (he was an ass and it was kinda funny but kinda annoying but ultimately really forgettable)
15. Aysha (RHAP flop who wasn't even bad but I forgot about entirely when she was booted)
16. Jon (a stunt casting first boot is hilarious but I remember nothing about him and he didn't even really do anything to warrant being booted lmfao)
17. Kishan (boring and forgettable plot device for Genevieve)

18. Gabe (not even disliked for the reasons other people do, just SO BORING and yet people act like he's some great villain and he keeps talking up himself as on the Mt. Rushmore of the New Era and I literally remember nothing about him)
