The story is that Kimmi blabbed about Varner's past vote to Tina during Reward Challenge after the Debb boot.

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 8 Am starting to like Rodger, he's smart and a good asset to the tribe. The croc just chilling :dead: Jerri: ;Your back will be stabbed faster than... you can spit.' Mm. Too many cooks in the rice kitchen! Of course they are having a boomerang contest, lol. Jerri;s throw was amazing. Love they've started the 'you an pick someone else to come!' Always makes things interesting. I like the concept of this challenge but as a viewer it's difficult to keep track of and watch. Alicia was fierce and I'm sad she's gone, really hoping that the votes aren't as predictable from here on in. Boots (In order of faves)- Kimmi Alicia Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Mad Dog Varner

Yeah honestly Rob being shoved down our throats as a figurehead of Survivor is even more insulting with the recent events of Varner outing Zeke and the whole Dan/Kellee thing considering how he handled John's sexuality and the Richard/Sue thing in All-Stars. I know people are going to come in and chime about how ~things were different then~ but it's still not cute.
John and Neleh are also BFFs now and both want to come back and play again? Get them and T-Bird *BACK* already ffs!

Survivor: Thailand
Survivor Thailand is finished! It was my least favourite series so far but not unwatchable either. When put like that, it sounds a bit like BB2? I also sorted out a few of my Edgic charts from previous seasons, especially Borneo, as I watched that season without knowing the elimination order, and there were a lot of ratings that needed fixed. I’ll also add a cast ranking for Borneo soon. Edgic Spoiler: 1. Shii Ann - Shii Ann was a fun narrator for the first half of the season, and this season was already dull as it was, but it became even duller once Shii Ann left. Her sarcastic comments, and her hilarious confessionals were missed. “He is messing with the wrong girl. You do not mess with the Shii Girl and not get the horns.  ”“Food is one of the things which human beings share to show affection for each other. ”“Robb is an idiot who talks too much with no logical thoughts. ”(voting out Robb) A wise man knows much but says little; a fool knows little but says far too much. ”“Penny, you are manipulative, I know that’s not a pleasant word but that’s just the way it is. ” I am looking forward to watching her in All Stars.2. Helen - Same idea as Shii Ann in that Helen’s confessionals were good to watch as she would sit back and talk **** about her tribe-mates all day long. Helen on Jan: “She’s a nightmare. At one point, I was about ready, if I had a pistol in my pocket, I’d have shot her first and shot me second. That’s why I don’t carry a gun.  Helen on Jan’s pet bat who died: “I feel bad if a kitten dies, but I’m looking at this slimy bat going uhhh yeah that’s real sad, bury that thing before flies get all over it. ”Helen on how much she likes her tribemates: “Hehhh I guess so as much as you can like STRANGERS. ”Helen on Clay: “Quite frankly, Clay does SQUAT in camp. He has gone on ONE water run in 33 days and he swamped the boat when he went. That stuff goes right up my hnnnnnnn HELL NO. ”3. Clay - Probably not a good person irl but he was funny to watch because he was such an asshole who thought he was above everybody else, but was actually quite pathetic, as reflected by Robb strangling him and Clay’s natural reaction is to flap his arms like a bird and go “HRGHHHHHHHHH”  Everybody hated him, and he hated everybody  Moments from The Clay Jordan Experience include but are not limited to,- Bringing in a golf club as his luxury item and raging when people want to use it. - Comparing Helen to an encyclopaedia, because she is not fun and there is nothing fun in there to read, and you only open it up when you want information. - Writing down “Bye Bye Denver Diva”, to evict Ghandia and getting a warning from Jeff Probst that nicknames were not allowed (although strangely he was fine with Ted voting off Ken as “NYC” in the same season but anyway) - Saying he would rather eat a hamburger, fries and apple dumpling than have sex with his wife. - Giving the camera the most unimpressed look when Jan got excited about the Survivor Auction. - “Penny is a cute sweet little girl. She thinks that her looks and her little talent can get whatever she wants from men, well, I am 46 years old and she ain’t getting **** out of me!” - His Jake impression “HeY i’M jUsT a GoOd OlD mOuNtAiN mAn WhO gOeS oUt AnD kIlLs ThEm ElEpHaNtS aNd FaLlS dOwN tHem MoUnTaInS aNd I fIgHt OfF mEn WiTh AlLiGaToRs AnD… if he thinks we’re buying that, he’s crazy.”- Refusing to answer Helen’s jury question after he watched her shout at Brian, because no answer in the world would satisfy her, so why try? 4. Ghandia - GHANDIA JOHNSON! 33! LEGAL SECRETARY! (Holly Allen 24 Wyoming left shaking) Ghandia was a scream and I wish she lasted longer. Wanting to punch Clay in the ass and the eye Screaming LUCKY BASTARDS at Sook Jai after Chuay Ghan lost a comp Getting so frustrated with Grindgate that she went to the ocean and screamed at the top of her voice, only to be referred to as “Ugh, crazy lady” by Clay Calling Ted “stupid, asinine and crappy” BYE BYE DENVER DIVA x5. Jan - Ever so slightly overrated but still very good nonetheless. Jan was the MORP happy-go-lucky person who shines very brightly because they are cast in a **** season but we still appreciate them anyway, eg Helen Adams. Basically, Jan was a very kind-hearted, slightly crazy grandma who loved alcohol, got upset over a dead bat which she went on to name Oscar, and said stuff like “First thing I’m doing when I get out of here is having 4 beers, 2 in each hand and a big fat pizza, that’s exactly what I’m going to do, and find some sucker with a cigar and con it off of him. AND LAUGH. ” 6. Robb - I could not stand Robb at the beginning because he was far too obnoxious, but I ended up liking Robb in the end. Ordinarily I’d have rolled my eyes at someone “going on a journey” in 6 episodes but I didn’t mind it? I also liked that he voted off Shii Ann because she was annoying but assured that it was nothing personal 7. Stephanie - I kiiiiind of like Stephanie because she went from being “the fun one who is full of life and goes skinny dipping etc” to hating everybody and just wanting the whole experience to be over with But overall, an inconsequential ep 5 boot who I wouldn’t have minded if she stayed, but wasn’t bothered if she went either.8. Jake - Came across like a very nice man 9. Jed - Lmao he was only on the show for 3 episodes and all 3 of them were just people moaning about how lazy he was 10. Ted - I don’t really care for anybody from #10 downwards, but Ted was the more likeable one out of this group so here he is... 11. Penny - Ehh I think she’s liked among Survivor fans, and if so, then I think she’s overrated because I don’t really get the Penny thing at all. She was just kind of, *there*, and her tribe-mates didn’t like her. For a CPN, not very exciting at all imo. 12. Ken - was a contestant on Survivor Thailand. 13. Tanya - Seemed to have potential but then she got ill and was voted off, shame. 14. John - https://survivor.fandom.com/wiki/John_Raymond 15. Brian - A smug, arrogant, dick and not even in a funny way either. Helen summed it up when she described him as “the epitome of a used car salesman.” I don’t dislike him though because he at least brought something to the series but **** me he was sleazy as. 16. Erin - Really boring, and also made some pretty questionable comments about Shii Ann’s culture and how repulsed she was by Shii Ann eating the neck of the chicken.

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 14
The classic car reward! Such an iconic challenge of early Survivor, high stakes and important- could impact the rest of the game too! FFS Colby. I remember liking Colby first time around, I mean he is a nice guy but his wins are so predictable. I think the joy of Australia though is the final outcome of underdogs vs Colby. Like the way they were given scales, really puts into perspective the survival aspect of the game. 'We got enough grub, I'm gonna join ya!' OF COURSE Probst is joining Colby on this reward, he's just finished fapping over the cowboy reward. Starting to find Elisabeth very attractive, especially when she's not wearing that vile head-gear! Like Keith's reflective statement, am liking him more and more too. Don't even like the car anyway, it's yellow and annoying. Colby's mum third wheeling his date with Jeff... This reward get's weirder, Colby in the shower then it cuts to his mum taking a picture of him in there.  So Colby wins immunity AGAIN, you may as well call this episode the Colby episode. If I were Keith, Tina or Elisabeth I'd be DESPERATE to vote him out!! Sad to see Elisabeth go, liked her in the end, she was a tough cookie. *Taps Tina's shoulder on the way out*- 'Try wear that thing' meaning immunity lol. Boots (In order of faves)- Jerri Amber Kimmi Rodger Alicia Elisabeth Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Nick Mad Dog Varner

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 15
These reflection sections last a ridiculous amount of time, I swear the first half of this episode could just be glazed over as it's not that important. Whew, any idea why it's Day 40? Was the season extended due to the weather? Dislike the 'memory walk' or whatever it's called, just really strung out and as a viewer I want to get to the finale! Not a fan of challenges at tribal, doesn't allow for much strategy afterwards. Wow, Colby again continuing his winning streak. At this point I'm shocked he didn't win, Tina must have put up an impressive final tribal speech surely? So Keith is gone, he seemed to give up in the end, I think this is the right final two even though I dislike Colby now and all of his wins. Boots (In order of faves)- Jerri Amber Kimmi Rodger Alicia Keith Elisabeth Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Nick Mad Dog Varner Would have loved to have seen Keith or Tina win immunity and get rid of Colby. Real shame. I think Colby's lying when he says he dosen't think he can win against TIna, I think he's very confident. See I know America (and Probst for that matter) loved him, so I'm interested to see this fall from grace! I really like the way the jury narrate their pre-final tribal thoughts as the final two walks to the final tribal, nice format. Colby talking about his water consumption during the final tribal as it helped him get to the end lol. *After winning a car already* Colby says he’d buy a motorbike with the money. Love Elisabeth’s question on ‘Which two jury members would you exclude from winning the game’!- Absolutely savage and inventive. I think Tina’s being a lot more honest in her answers and has handled the jury a lot better. Colby not even having last words for the jury sums it up, I think he thinks he has it in the bag. Wow, the live stage is impressive, and Tina/Colby look so different! Am so happy Tina won, Colby winning was such an obvious ending but I think Tina played a very clever game and handled the last tribal council very well. Boots (In order of faves)- Jerri Amber Kimmi Tina Rodger Alicia Keith Elisabeth Colby Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Nick Mad Dog Varner Will post reunion/overall season thoughts very soon.

Overall Season Thoughts/& Reunion
I enjoyed the reunion, everyone was given a fair secment and the questions we wanted to hear were asked. Watching it a second time around it's clear this seasonw as largely character based and there were some really strong ones. Colby would have porbably got America's favourite had it been a feature. I loved Australia, it seems like the game already from Borneo is evolving into a much more strategically based game. Most of the episodes had longer strategy talks and less filler though the classic 'survival' skills were still there. We had our first medical evac and an extremely close final two vote among many other enjoyable things. I think the only moan was that it would have been too long and we still had some goats in the season. Memorable characters such as Jerri provided a great villain and I just loved underdog Tina's win. Interested to see what happens when the show travels to Africa, can't remember much from my first watch except Theresa and Lex! Overall Ranking Jerri- 'Laughing all the way to the bank' Jerri really was one of the stars of Australia. So funny and a hilarious 'love to hate' character. Can't believe people actually had her pictures on a dartboard. Brilliant. Kimmi- Have I placed Kimmi too high? I don't think so, yeah she was a letdown in Cambodia but in Australia she was a SCREAM. The fight with Alicia will forever be iconic. She was just hilarious and the first to bring up vegetarianism. Tina- A well deserved winner. HEr son says beforehand that the family were just normal 'hillbillies' and it's craz how famous she became, nowadays Survivor contestants could probably pass you in the street. But Tina was so likeable, so normal and against Colby deserved the win full heatedly, a true underdog. She was worth rooting for. I so wanted her to win and even watching 'Back to the Outback' really backs that up in how lovely she is and what a brilliant winner she was. Amber- I loved Amber. I was really rooting for her, found her extremely attractive and found her enjoyable to watch. Wish she'd stay longer, but I obviously know about her Survivor legacy! Alicia- 'I will always wave my finger in your face'- what a legendary quote. Alicia was tough, athletic and rocked an iconic silver bikkini- what's not to like? Colby- I don't dislike Colby, that's why he's in orange. HE wasn't my favorite either. He was an extremely and annoyingly likable and good looking guy. His immunity streak became frustrating and almost like he was unbeatable, some of the things he said just didn't seem sincere. But as I said, I don't hate him, he was a great player. Rodger- The original Donny Thompson. A real lovable character and likable to watch. You need characters like Rodger in Survivor and his relationship with Elisabeth was lovely. Elisabeth- She was tough in the end, annoying to watch at first but became a likable character. Mad Dog- Moved Mad Dog up actually after watching 'Back from the Outback' as she's walking round in a red bikkini, is actually hilarious and is giving me Debbie vibes. Wish we could have seen more of this in the actual season! Mike- He was a big character, a leader and a bringer of food. I think if it wasn't for the med evac then he would have gone far. The med evac is such a big part of the early seasons, showing how dangerous the game could really be. Debb- 'What did you think of me in Survivor?' .. 'Go **** yourself' LOL. I felt bad for Deb after the season and during the reunion, like she was properly upset as to what happened on the show. She wasn't a favorite but I wish we'd seen more of her. Keith- Keith was a nice guy and I was surprised how far he actually made it. He was friendly and a likable character really who provided some funny moments. Mitchell- Mitchell is in red because he was just meh. But when there are so many great characters he fades into the background. He was a nice guy and funnier after the show than when he was actually on it. Can see why getting rid of him was such a big move now. Kel- One thing I'll give Kel is he was funny. In the game he wasn't that interesting and not much of a big loss when he went. Nick- Nick was one that kinda slipped through the net, was deemed 'lazy' and 'boring' by viewers and I felt the same. Even in 'Back from the Outback' he was dull- 'My life hasn't changed. Jeff Varner- There's something really unlikable about Jeff. I think my opinion was tainted because of the Zeke thing as well as his current tweets about the Dan situation. But still even in Australia he is smarmy, bitchy and frustrating to watch. Onto Africa next in 2020

Survivor: Amazon
Great series. Much better than Thailand. Edgic: Spoiler: 1. Deena - What a jourmey  She started off being very excited that the tribes were split into men vs women because she doesn’t like men Pre-merge Deena didn’t leave much of an impact on me but Post-merge Deena is something everybody should watch in their lives because it is inspirational. Deena, a left-wing feminist, comes across Roger Sexton, an old right-wing, openly homophobic and misogynist. Or as she describes him, A SEXIST… ARROGANT… ***MAN***  . She seemed as if she even hated the fact that he was even alive and she made it her mission to get him out and she succeeded after winning immunity herself and voting him out by saying “Reality check… and MATE. NEVER underestimate the power of a woman. ” She then went on a power trip and started saying things like THE GAME IS MINE without any ironic tone to it whatsoever but ended up getting booted early jury  2. Matthew - What an awkward **** Most of the tribe noted that Matthew would probably benefit from a psychiatric evaluation, because he would sit about sharpening his machete just because he was maybe planning on killing everyone? Matthew is probably the most anti-social person to ever play Survivor apart from fellow legend Frank Garrison and I wish that I took note of **** Matthew Says/Does in the way that I took note of **** Frank Says/Does because that’s always hilarious and the Matthew equivalent is probably too! Time for another rewatch maybe?3. Christy - For somebody who was expected to get the sympathetic edit, lmao @ Christy turning out to be one of the annoying ones to the tribe and STILL getting an OTTP edit? The fact that she hated Jenna and Heidi and would refer to them as THE EVIL STEPSISTERS  and ended up voting for Jenna to win the game after essentially calling her ableist in her jury speech 4. Rob - Idk how well liked Rob is around here but I like him. I thought he was fun and I also liked how he took Matthew, someone who was not as clued up on Survivor as everybody else and essentially made him his student in the game. I thought this was smart. I also liked how Rob was one of the game players of the season but was also entertaining as well, because not many people manage to combine the two (*glares at S39*) 5. Jeanne - Meanne Queanne Jeanne When she started a meeting by saying “I think we need a camp leader I PICK DEENA ^_^” When she provoked Christy into inadvertently bitching about Joanna while she was standing right next to her When her departing words were “I guess I wasn’t made to play this game because I didn’t want to lie or cheat and I know that’s how I’m off right now. I played a tough game, I’m tough, I’m mean, I’m determined but I guess I’m not a nasty liar. Good luck to them because in the game of life, I’m the winner!” 7. Jenna - Like Heidi, very vapid but she was entertaining with it because she went on a journey from being a spoilt brat to winning in a 6-1 jury vote. Even Jeff was like “How did THIS happen?  ” 6. Heidi - Had such a high opinion of herself but it was occasionally funny, Making comments like “The cuter girls, me, Jenna and Shawna, went off from the older women, because we are younger, curer have better bodies and for some reason that is a huge issue with old women”  8. Daniel - “The thing that irritates me about Roger is that he barks orders, he’s not friendly about it, he just tells people what to do. And also, he smells bad, he smells like… spoilt vinegar?” 9. Butch - With every episode, Butch would pop up for about 10 seconds to either be praised by the camp, talk about how attracted he was to Jenna or burn the whole camp down 10. Ryan - A messy first boot He hated Roger (always a good thing) and voted him off because he kept giving too much advice to the other tribe members 11. Alex - I don’t have too much thoughts on Alex but I appreciate him for standing up to Roger and his homophobia. 12. Janet - Queen of granola bars? “Vote me off if you want, but vote me off because of me. not because of the candy bar! ”13. Dave - Can take him or leave him. Rob’s hatred of him 14. Shawna - Can take her or leave her. Deena’s hatred of her 15. Joanna - I can kiiiiind of get the appeal but I thought the way she treated Christy was pretty nasty, even if she was probably a bit harsher off camera than the edit let on, getting in the face of a deaf person and shoving your hand in their face is not a good look at ALL... I appreciate Joanna for her objection to the idol because it was kind of funny but the way she treated Christy puts a damper on it for me 16. Roger - ****. If I hadn’t just watched Island Of The Idols I’d have been perfectly comfortable with saying Roger was my least favourite of all time because be’s such an awful arrogant bigot but now he has competition. Utter piece of **** and I don’t find him funny in any way at all. (Part 1 of 4 of The Sandra Diaz-Twine Experience will be coming soon........ Merry Christmas if I haven’t watched it before then )

**** bring Kelly Goldsmith back too, I don't think she's as vocal about wanting to go back as the others I mentioned but I swear I remember listening to an interview with her not all that long ago and she said she wouldn't mind returning?

So I am getting SNOWED IN and I am going to celebrate by spontaneously rewatching and tweaking my edgic for SJDS? It's always been on my rewatch list because it's a legitimate top five season and there are so many questions I have...
 Are Natalie and/or Jeremy CPP instead of just CP? How is Keith not OTTM?! How on earth are Jaclyn and Dale MORP?!?!?! Some scores need to be settled and I think it is time! Also I remember NOT liking Keith this season and then he had the biggest glo up ever in Cambodia, so I'm ready to let him into my heart this time because I'm 99% sure he's actually just as good in SJDS too but I only had room for one man in my heart and his name is Jon Misch I'm ready to let everyone else into my hearts, except for like Reed and Josh and Jon Rocker.

Hi. If there's one good thing coming from quarantine (I don't go back to work for at least another month to the day at the very earliest), it's that I had time to restart and finish my SJDS rewatch this past week! For reference, here was my chart when I watched live.
Quote:
 So to answer my questions: Yes, Natalie is CPP if barely. Jeremy is just CP. Keith is definitely OTTM. Jaclyn is in fact MORP somehow and Dale is actually CPP and that doesn't even go into the fact that I also changed Julie's and Alec's overall ratings.Anyways, fantastic season as I said. A very good cast that was fun and bounced off each other well AND the right people made it the farthest. Like, just imagine how terrible the season would've been if the endgame was dominated by Reed and Josh and Alec and Wes rather than Natalie and Missy and Baylor 1. Jaclyn (I break up the Jaclyn saga into four parts: the first part is pre-swap when she was the UTR Tribal Council assassin who would be UTR all episode until she came in with an answer at Tribal Council that was scathingly honest or where she would just start yelling at Baylor with Val alol. The second part is after the swap when she was reunited with her long lost love Jon Misch and they would just stand in the middle of shelter kissing each other while Baylor sat there in awe hoping that someone would love her that much one day. The third part is the first half of the merge when we had Swing Vote Jaclyn, who held the entire fate of the game in her hands seemingly every week. She and Jon ping-ponged back and forth between Jeremy's alliance and Josh's alliance but she showed her true power when Jon went to Exile Island and the boys all ignored her and thus she squeezed Jon's balls and DEMANDED that they go against the guys because they're dirty pigs. This is the same Jaclyn that also REFUSED the speak to Jon for five hours after he came back from Exile Island and effectively sealed Reed's fate the fourth part is Finale Jaclyn who turned into the ultimate underdog after Jon was blindsided at F6. She cursed out Natalie and cried in her confessional about how she's not used to people not loving her and Jon, survived the F5 vote against all odds thanks to Natalie's Idol, and then had the most amazing come from behind victory in the final IC all while Jeff trashed her for being way out of it AND falling hard on her way down the tower and almost killing herself a complete inspiration both legitimately because of her MRKH and entertainment-wise because she was the heart and soul of San Juan del Sur)2. Jon (yes I am obsessed with Jonclyn. Not only was Jon good-hearted and FUN and loyal to his woman, but he also went through a great story arc where he was kind of an anti-villain? He started out as a bit of an underdog on the original Hunahpu, swapped to NuCoyopa and found himself in a power position, found himself in the ultimate power position when the tribes merged and he and Jaclyn were the swing votes, then became the Top Dog when he ruthlessly blindsided Jeremy because Jeremy figured out that he found the HII on Exile Island, then became a bit of an overdog who survived multiple assassination attempts due to Immunity wins and Keith having a big mouth ( ), and then was ultimately blindsided at F6 without seeing it coming at all? It was a great morph from underdog to hero to overdog and when you couple that with a nice and likable and fun personality it all turns out even bettter)3. Natalie (I know some people are going to call me crazy for not having her as #1 or even #2 but #ThisIsMyTruth. Natalie's *not* a top 10 all time for me or anything like that BUT she's still legitimately great. She is kind of a CPbot but she makes her strategy fun so it's kind of a trick because you're never bored by her and she never feels like a CPbot? She had some good moments in the beginning of the season like cursing out John Rocker after an Immunity Challenge just because she felt like it but post-Jeremy is really where Natalie shines: she became OBSESSED with taking down Jon and did it in the most calculated but amazing way. Pretended to accidentally vote out Alec instead of Keith so she could secure his trust going forward, somehow convinced Missy to go against her in-game husband/son Jon, wrangle Jaclyn back in after getting cursed out by her and ruthlessly stabbing Baylor in the back, and then winning in a pretty clear landslide? Just a fun personality and one of the few people who could ACTUALLY pull off a CP edit) 4. Baylor (I think my biggest surprise is just how much I *LOVED* Baylor this time around? A bratty and immature 20 year old who is convinced she's mature for her age and has no clue that she infuriates everyone around her? Count me in I loved how she would cry at the drop of a hat the second anyone threw criticism at her or Missy, and I looooove that she was an aspiring musician with her ~Sticky Situation~ because the Missy/Baylor dynamic just makes SO MUCH SENSE when you realize that Missy's That Pageant Mom and Baylor's That Daughter who isn't really that talented even in spite of what mommy says I could not stop cackling at the scene in the swap episode where Missy is cooking rice and Baylor keeps yelling at her to add more scoops in while Dale just sits there stewing )5. Missy (guys this F6 is SO GOOD like Missy would be a STAR in any other season, and she still is in this one despite only being #5 for me? Extraordinarily fake and cliquey, transparently biased towards and defensive of her bratty daughter, having her three marriages and three divorces constantly referenced, almost breaking her ankle because of a Challenge made by a Make A Wish kid and perhaps my favorite moment was the merge episode where she tells Julie not to quit yet and that she's her loved one now () and telling Baylor she's gonna have to be a little bit phony )6. Julie (okay so she definitely gets docked some points for willingly associating herself with John Rocker but she kinda owned it and I'm impressed that she was able to have the agency to turn it into her own storyline. And I've seen a few people say that the merge episode is weak but I actually thought it was GREAT and a lot of that was due to the #TrailMixScandal and insisting that people judge her for her makeup and boobs and quitting because of how fake Missy was to her )7. Jeremy (yes he was a CPbot but he was FUN and ultimately righteous most of the time? He was grumpy for the right reasons and aligned with all the correct people. My only complaint is that during Ponderosa he was always so quick to bitch about the other guys for acting like they were amazing gameplayers when they weren't and being bitter for being got but that also kind of applies to him oops) 8. Keith (lmao I had him in red when the season first aired but time has proven that he's completely harmless and fun! Came into the show and had no clue how to play the game, somehow got really far and was a huge threat to win all while providing lots of comedic relief. What's not to like?) 9. Drew (suuuuuuch a sleaze omg but thank god the editors were In on the joke because he's legitimately insufferable alol) 10. Val (she's good and all but I don't think she's all that, like she's nowhere near a top 5 person this season. Her double Idol lie was fun but kinda painfully stupid to watch at the same time) 11. Nadiya (points literally only for being a Twinnie but her stuff about Josh being one of the girls doesn't age that well oops) 12. Wes (I wouldn't even go as far as to say he was UTRfun because he wasn't really BUT he didn't make me mad at all and his Ponderosa was cute bc he made Josh cry for being ~an ally~ to the gays) 13. Alec (pretty much the same douchey personality as his older brother but underedited? and also with a complex for being In Drew's Shadow? I don't know, I could see myself liking him potentially with a bigger edit but at the same time I couldn't decide if I found his behavior hilarious or irritating? There were some times where was rude and it wasn't cute but most of the time it was so bold it was funny like when he openly commented on the trail mix in front of Julie )14. Kelley (she's decently fun and snarky during Drew's OTTN episodes but it's not nearly enough for her to somehow be brought back TWICE )15. Dale (I remember liking @farmguy69 for being sour and grumpy but it wasn't as cute this time  there are still some moments that I liked ironically but blegh, nothing special and received a lot of focus for someone ultimately so inconsequential?)16. Josh (BORING and actually not good at the game at all. "Baylor, I'm sorry I voted for you in the first Tribal Council of the season last night but I promise I only did it so it would strengthen our alliance" like what the ****?) 17. John (duh. A legitimately horrible person cast because he's a legitimately horrible person, and when he was being yelled at for being a racist and a homophobe and a bigot he was just a boring CP bot. Nooooo thank you) 18. Reed (sorry but I just can't. An annoying Broadway gay who showboated in the most cringe ways and got upset when people didn't want to play his game and make moves that benefited him? Regardless of how grating both Missy and Baylor are, I can't STAND how he was somehow deemed as In The Right when his only actual grievance with them was that they were in power and he was not. His Jury speech is legitimately infuriating and doesn't even make sense. The only good part of the season was when he got eliminated because Jaclyn refused to talk to Jon for five hours ad;sfjwlefj)

I’ve finished Survivor China! I really liked this season, it was a lot of fun to watch and I never felt bored during it like I did with the previous two seasons. Each episode kept me intrigued to watch the next one, so I got through it quickly
Edgic: Spoiler: 1. Courtney - Had no idea what Survivor was yet managed to make it all the way to the end despite hating everyone she came into contact with “I hate Todd and Amanda less than everyone else but I hope they don’t mistake that for friendship x  ”2. Jean-Robert - Completely unaware and irritating to everybody who intereacted with him but he was one of the most entertaining with how egotistical he was  3. Sherea - So underrated I almost choked when Dave told her not to throw the rice over the edge so she threatened to throw him over the edge Her JR bubble busting voting confessional too 4. Peih-Gee - So rootable yet snarky Asking Amanda if she knew hidden immunity idols were in existence because she took longer than 2 seconds to respond to her question 5. Leslie - Sister Christian who insists she’s not a Christian but has a confessional about Christianity in every episode THE BIG MAN UP THERE’S PROVIDING x6. Ashley - I’m voting for Derek Zoolander. Oh I mean Dave. Enough said. 7. Denise - Lunch lady turned janitor turned custodian turned fraudster is..... an arc. 8. Amanda - Kind of a one dimensional gamebot for a while but she became better at the end with moments like “I’M NOT STUPID PEIH GEE” and flat out refusing Denise’s deal in front of everyone 9. Todd - Kind of a gamebot but was actually fun and righteous at times eg his reaction to JR and James talking about Courtney? 10. Dave - Aggravating and condescending but in a way that made good TV 11. Chicken - DAYUMMMM  12. Jaime - Hidden immunity slabs 13. Frosti - Every now and then drama would be happening in the background and the camera would pan to Frosti making faces or doing something strange lmao 14. James - Kind of fun to watch towards the end of his stay but nothing worth bringing back for FvF? 15. Erik - Ik he’s thought of as great because he’s nice, and he is nice but he’s kind of dull too sorry! 16. Aaron - He’s honestly fine, this cast is just so good that the one who I have pretty much no thoughts on is at the bottom of my ranks? The next season is Micronesia, which is Fans vs Favourites, so here’s my pre-show ranking of the Favourites before I start: 1. Cirie 2. Eliza 3. Ami 4. Yau-Man 5. Amanda 6. Parvati 7. James 8. Ozzy 9. Jonathan 10. Jon

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 1 1
Absolutely savage singing 'Ding, Dong the Witch is dead!' after Jerris elimination. Was she really THAAAAT bad? I suppose Rodger and her never really got on? Damn that bag of rice looks suspicious eh Amber?  'Everyone would bring back Jerri... if she had rice to come with her...' desperate time's ay Elisabeth? YES, the Survivor auction- probably one of my favorites ever, so wish they still did this on current seasons. One of the rewards: Six fries and some dip, lol. The auction isn't the same without the ADVANTAGES though! Add a whole different aspect to the game other than them just enjoying food. Yeah the burger would have tempted me, that or a pizza. The water rising, this Australian location is one of the most interesting. Visually Fiji is absolutely stunning and I can see why mot recent seasons have stayed there, however I'd love a different type of location from 41 on wards to change things up- who agrees? Love this challenge, not sure who I want to win but probably Amber as she was left out of the last vote. Jeff coming to leverage with them is a first, interesting too, it's the tribe's own fault that this happened and it's good he's bargaining with them. Amber could be the pivot vote right now, going against Colby, Tina and Keith- an important role right now. So Nick's gone, meaning Amber stayed with her alliance, think it was the best decision for her at this point though she may be bottom of her alliance now? Boots (In order of faves)- Jerri Kimmi Alicia Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Nick Mad Dog Varner

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 12
So looks like Amber will be the next boot, hope it's not as predictable as that, either her or Rodger/Elisabeth. Ugh Colby had to win that didn't he. Really was rooting for Amber with that reward. Real shame he couldn't bring anyone with him either. This cowboy reward is one of Probst's wet dreams ffs. Wow that storm was intense, one of the worst I've seen in Survivor! Then kangaroo trying to get out of the storm is heartbreaking. You can tell Probst absolutely loves Colby. Crazy they spotted the tin of food still sealed down by the river. Could it have been placed there by production? We are seeing a LOT of this reward, literally ten minutes of Colby eating food nearly. Then inter-cutting with everyone at camp struggling. Colby got immunity :eyeroll: His wins are becoming frustrating. Rodger blaming the ruined camp on the 'females' decision, lol. Genuinely sad to see Amber go, really started to like her and was championing her as the underdog. Boots (In order of faves)- Jerri Amber Kimmi Alicia Debb Mitchell Michael Kel Nick Mad Dog Varner

Survivor 2: The Australian Outback: Episode 13
Outback internet cafe :dead: Oh my God the size of that Computer  This messaging reminds me of when I used to race home from school and g straight on MSN lol. Wow, Keith's wife is beautiful. YES, so glad Tina won that reward and not Colby, she really deserved it. I like the immunity challenges at night, makes it even more eerie and dramatic. Love the nod to Australian history as well. So Colby wins immunity once again, his immunity streak is getting frustrating, I don't know why, I like him but I am finding it annoying. Very commendable of Rodger saying he'll go over Elisabeth, hate such an easy vote, would love them to turn the tables and get rid of Keith instead. A shame Rodger went actually, was a predictable boot, he was a good contestant, wish we'd seen a bit more of a fight for him int he end instead of giving up.
