I think the second Michael episode and the first George Michael episodes were the best ones- at least those were the ones where I laughed the most.

It's not bad- it's one of those seasons that really relies entirely on the characters and so you really just need to like the cast. It's got a few big personality, highly-divisive characters

Great season. It's a crime Ian's never been asked back. If anyone ever needed as Survivor redemption story- it's Ian

I think I've done that one before. I did not get them all

I got all 104 in less than 5 minutes. I don't know if I should be proud of myself or concerned for my fanatical devotion to a reality tv show

A reliable spoiler on Sucks claims that Redemption Island is back this season.

I haven't watched Tocantins since it aired but I think I may have too now.

It's really a shame she was voted out so early. She was my preseason pick for the fans and I stand by that. If she hadn't gotten voted out so early, I think she would have been Caramoan's Natalie Bolton 

Because Jason wasn't eliminated during the Fucking Stick episode his reputation as a Survivor idiot is not as great as Erik's but in reality Jason was far more of an idiot over the course of the season than Erik was

@JudgeReinhold:disqus I was about 14-15 the first time I saw that scene and it is probably 90% of the reason Amanda is still one of my favorite players.

I've always argued that Erik is a lot more self-aware than people give him credit for.

Could we discuss the idea of midseason trades or is that just too complicated?

Are any of you familiar with the Grantland Reality Fantasy League? I'd say that looking at that would be a good way to start quantifying points for great confessionals, WTF moments, etc

In fairness to the Ogre- Chet is arguably the worst player in Survivor history. 

The bizarro-Amanda was named Alexis. One of the funniest subplots of the season is their unspoken hatred towards each other because they're both trying to get into Ozzy's pants.

Haha I just saw that. Whoever asked that question I am now their newest follower

I think Colton is aware of how he came off last time and is gonna consciously attempt to avoid coming off the same way again. He doesn't seem to revel in hatred like Jonny Fairplay or Russell do

@avclub-a1967e6de4ca99fb2635d94b99453928:disqus It'll probably be months before we hear what went down but my best guess is it went something like this:

Well nothing's confirmed for sure until they actually start playing but all the insiders seem to agree that Rob is out
