A guy can be too much of a dick too. In Rocky's case I really don't think he was (too much of one that is). Also, the only reason I even said "as long as she's not too bitchy" was because Courtney was literally complaining about / mocking everything & everyone. I like her anyway cause she was very charismatic and funny about it and I expect/hope for her to continue to be. If someone's entertaining that's all I care about first and foremost anyway.

Okay, I understand. I think it's mainly because I found Rocky to be a complete horror of a person.

I have a feeling you'll still end up liking Courtney anyway

[reece(:]

Courtney, PG and Sherea <3

[_Tom_]

Courtney and Peih-Gee

The "DAMN!" reaction on the premiere is so funny

[LukeB]

We are on about Courtney Yates right?

Again, rewatch Anthony's boot TC if you can't remember any times was Too Much

Well I remember it well enough I think but I watched that episode days ago. I know he called Anthony effeminate and told him something like "take the skirt off"... and was yelling. I could be wrong but that's about the worst I remember and no I don't think it was Too Much tbh. I mean it wasn't nice and he was being pretty misogynistic but it wasn't demoralizing either. Honestly maybe it's because Anthony took it pretty well. But anyway, the entertainment Rocky brought made up for the asshole behavior moments - which plenty of times was entertainment in itself but not so much that TC. He's easy to both laugh at and with and he was a wreck within the game.

I can't be bothered to debate that much more anyway, at least not right now. So basically

Also I just watched episode 2 of China.

Spoiler:

Courtney continued to deliver and Sherea shined at the TC. "Did ya not hear what came out of my mouth?!"

Ashley going.. grew to like her more this episode. </3

Also added to that list of likes for me is Erik.

[Macie Lightfoot]

IDK, we have very different ideas of entertainment then because I don't think there's anything amusing about someone actively trying his hardest to be funny. Like, walking naked around camp Just Because was novel like ten years earlier, now it's just lame. Screaming over people in attempt to assert your masculinity and hide your insecurities doesn't make you entertaining, it just makes you a transparent jerk.

Just pulled a Survivor marathon this morning/afternoon to get through the rest of China before I go to work.

I still have only the finale left to watch but I don't have time to watch it right now so my China Ranking minus 1 episode:

---(faves)---
1. Amanda (I love when someone unexpected is a good gameplayer plus she was really nice and kinda lulzy at times)
2. Courtney
3. Frosti
4. James
---(liked)---
5. Erik
6. Sherea
7. Denise
8. Ashley
9. Leslie
---(ok)---
10. Peih-Gee (likable enough gamebot but kinda dull)
11. Jean-Robert (disliked him for a bit until I realized he's just a mess lol)
---(meh)---
12. Aaron
13. Chicken (I wanna put him higher for his exit but can't do it )
14. Jaime
---(dislike)---
15. Todd
16. Dave

Quality season. The dislikes in the cast were pretty mild. They could pretty easily go under "meh" I just didn't care for them. Also, this was definitely a female-dominated cast.

Winner expectation:

Spoiler:

I'm kinda not sure but I'd assume it's obviously either Amanda or Todd... I wanna say it's gonna be Amanda.

[rk3388]

Denise way too high on ranking

[reece(:]

Denise should be bottom!

[JerseyWins]

What was wrong with Denise?

Anyway, I finished China now and final thoughts are it was a good season. The winner was kind of a shame but eh, most deserving I guess.

I'm excited to watch Micronesia because the returning castaways are GREAT (all of them that I know of) but I'm gonna go back to watch Vanuatu first I guess. I'd like to see Eliza & Ami first before I watch their second season. Now I can watch that season on another site where the episode isn't missing (thanks again Luke, I was also able to watch a few missing episodes for the last 2 seasons I watched as well ).

[Dominic]

PEIH GEE IS NOT DULL. In fact the only dull person in China is Frosti and everyone else delivered something (even if some delivered awfully.)

And yeah I think you'll enjoy Micronesia like most do but I personally find it overrated as the cast is filled with gamebots and there are only two actually entertaining characters, but I'm in the minority so idk

[reece(:]

Denise is a FRAUD!

[MB.]

Gabon is ga-done

Susie
Crystal
Kelly
Dan
Sugar
Gillian
Randy
Paloma
Bob
Corinne (I've genuinely no idea where to stick her because half the time I loved her and the other half I detested her, so she can have a colour of her own)
Kenny
Matty
Marcus
Michelle
Jacquie
GC
Charlie
Ace

[Dominic]

This should be Corinne's color.

I'm almost done Amazon but am starting to lose interest because Christy got voted out.
When I was younger I remember liking Jenna, Heidi for visual reasons, but I didn't realize that they're kinda sh*tty people. Even Rob C I'm not enjoying as much as I thought I did.
I'm going to try to get through it then post my rankings!

[EspeonBB]

I really loved Amazon <3
Rob C, Heidi, Christy <3

[Braden]

I finished watching Nicaragua a few hours ago.

For a finale that was kind of boring, I did find the reunion somewhat amusing. Fabio was so annoying throughout it all. I found him endearing sometimes throughout the season, but he did have really annoying moments. His smug attitude towards the end was so irritating and don't get me started on his reaction to winning. I loved it when Jeff was reading the votes and Chase got his fourth and Fabio was just like 'wtf' He so knew he was going to win but I wish it was Chase. Sash can **** right off.

I have to start off by mentioning Shannon at the reunon. There probably have been times where Jeff has scolded people at the reunion, but that was the first time where Jeff looked completely over someone (except Dan but that was nine seasons later). Shannon was such a dick and I'm glad that he practically had his head in his hands for the rest of the show. I don't want someone to make me side with Sash but he managed to do it.

My favourites from the season were Holly, Na'Onka, Chase & Brenda. I liked Purple Kelly, Wendy Jo and Alina. I have mixed feelings on Jane and Marty because I appreciated their presence but I don't fully know whether I genuinely liked them. I went back and forth with the two of them, which is ironic since they hate each other.

Ranking:

1) Holly
2) NaOnka
3) Brenda
4) Chase
5) Purple Kelly
6) Wendy Jo
7) Alina
8) Jane
9) Fabio
10) Marty
11) Dan
12) Jimmy T.
13) Tyrone
14) Jill
15) Benry
16) Kelly B.
17) Yve
18) Jimmy J.
19) Sash
20) Shannon

I'm going to post my thoughts on the whole double-quit situation soon.

[Dominic]

Why are Jimmy T, Dan and Tyrone so low

[Braden]

They were good enough but didn't stand out enough for me to like them. Dan maybe could be a shade greener but the other two are fine where they are.

ALSO, Vanuatu is proably the most underrated season of Survivor. It's definitely in my top five and I've seen every season bar Redemption Island through to Caramoan (I haven't fully watched Cambodia or Kaoh Rong either but w/e )

[JerseyWins]

Omg Vanuatu is so bad. I'm almost halfway through now after watching a couple episodes for tonight and I already can't wait for this season to end.

The cast is extremely weak as well IMO. I'm not even sure if I have a favorite character... Maybe someone between Twila/Eliza/John K but they would NOT be a favorite of mine on a typical season. Twila is probably #1 by default just cause Eliza has annoyed me a bit at times (yet as of now she's still arguably #2 on this cast lol) and John K is very likable but a bit bland.

I liked Dolly & Mia a lot more than most left but overall the boot order hasn't even been bad whatsoever. I think the cast has just been bad since the start so halfway through I'm still struggling to find many people I support.
