Also: Is literally anybody watching the RMS Love Boat? It looks like only ~1,600,000 watched it last week, and the rating was just a 0.26.

What's worse is that it's tanking Amazing Race in the ratings. CBS really did think this was going to be a slam dunk sandwiched between two of its marquee shows, but instead it may be taking TAR down with it. They learned nothing from the Love Island disaster.

This season is not nearly offensive enough to be bottom 5. It's just a dud.

Philippines absolutely holds up on rewatch. It's a top 5 season.

Some of the "offensive" seasons are actually quite entertaining for one reason or another. Redemption Island is heavily underrated and actually has a lot of entertaining moments. This season is so boring that I'm not even remotely engaged in it, which is why I put it in my bottom 5. With other bad seasons, I'm at least engaged at some points. Like IOI has a fantastic pre-merge until, y'know. Honestly, S43 reminds me of One World's merge sans Kim painting a masterpiece. Instead of Tarzan, we have Cody. We don't have a Kat or eye candy like Chelsea. It's so soulless.

Philippines top 5? Wow. It fell five places for me when I rewatched it last year. It wasn't as dynamic or engaging as I'd remembered, and most of the votes post-merge were teed up more than I'd recalled. Still, Jonathan Penner gives it more than enough points. His exit is legendary, as is Abi-Maria. Denise and Malcolm are both great, but the Matsing disaster is the high point of the season, what with gems like Angelia Layton's "cookies" and Swan mistaking Jeff for God. Maybe I went in expecting a top ten season and maybe it'll bounce back up whenever I rewatch it again. IDK.

I think you're reading to deep into this tbqh.

Old habits die hard. I can't not critically analyze the edit at this point.
