I liked Chelsea's boobs. Do those count?

@FuriousGiorge:disqus Really? I've heard a lot of behind-the-scenes rumors about those early seasons but that's actually one I've never even heard of at all

She saved most of her vitriol for the confessionals though. She played a fine social game until her whole alliance got voted out and then she decided to start really publicly desecrating on her enemies

You should right the plot of the next Nicolas Cage movie- National Treasure 3: The Files are IN the Immunity Idol

@avclub-9951711c053f38614b21135be50ae21c:disqus I already called Adam B!

The fans are actually probably mostly recruits. Only Michael and fast-food lady (sherry) and possibly Allie are true fans, the rest just watched a bunch of old seasons in the hotel before the show. Reynold has even admitted to being a recruit. It doesn't bother me though. If they end up being entertaining, I don't…

Michael's definitely my favorite fan thus far. Indeed, he's practically the gay version of Penner, although I always felt like Penner was just one sexual experiment away from being a stereotypical gay man (not that there's anything wrong with that)

Sounds fair. I'd put the early money on @avclub-080acdcce72c06873a773c4311c2e464:disqus  and Andy the Saint. Cochran is gonna kick ass this season

If you guys need an unbiased third party to handle situation scoring my services are available. I have absolutely no qualifications but an unfortunately large amount of free time and useless Survivor knowledge. Also, I really wanna sit at the cool kids table

Erik is actually much more strategic than his reputation would suggest. In Micronesia, he was able to convince Ozzy and Amanda to vote out Ami before him by pretty much stabbing her in the back and selling her out for crossing tribal lines. And the reason the girls convinced him to give up the idol was so that he…

I'm with SamR, I want a spot at the cool kids table guys!

I'm not even gonna ask how you found these pictures

I only know one other person in my real life who watches Happy Endings. It seriously depresses me.

I like the rob has a podcast threads, home of the hardcore, need-to-get-a-life survivor fans but AV Club is definitely the best. Survivor is the only show I go out of my way to watch live so that I can be involved in the discussions afterward.

I'd add China to the list, and maybe watch All-Stars after you've seen some of the earlier seasons just because it's such a different and fascinating season

Great List! I have a couple quibbles with your last few though- for starters I will defend Africa until the day I die as being one of the better seasons. It's a great location, epic challenges, the best rewards EVER, the first twist (poor Silas) and the first legitimate instance of a tribe turning on one of their own…

One gripe- You Only Live Twice is definitely more racist than Goldfinger, although in retrospect Goldfinger IS surprisingly more racist than I remembered it
