See, my rankings were "all things considered." That includes strategic presence, likability, rootability, impactfulness on season, etc. Do I actually like Chaos Kass? Not really. Do I root for LJ? Never. But Chaos Kass was a critical ingredient in the season's overall narrative and gave me someone to root against, which means I appreciate her. LJ was far more strategic and savvy than most of their other "boring hot guy" castings and played a major part in the emergence of Tony. Despite having a bland personality, he was critical to the season, unlike Jeremiah. I should've had him below Morgan tbh. You guys remember me liking Morgan at the time and that was probably just because of her papayas >_>

Perhaps I underrated Jefra. My big takeaway from her is how she entertained a flip, then welched on it. But she took her vote-out in stride and was overall likable.

Also Lindsey is the only dud, in my mind. Every single quitter is a dud. It does not matter what "entertainment" they offered to the season. They still quit, wasting a spot that could have been allocated to someone who wanted to play the damn game. Yes, this includes Jenna Morasca, who should not have played All-Stars given her circumstance and should have been invited back at a later time (Terry Deitz was more of a MedEvac than a quit). Worst quitters were NaOnka, Purple Kelly, Colton, and Quits McGee - two of them absolutely vile individuals, two of them sociostrategic nonentities.

Jeremiah comes close to being a dud, though. His best moment was when Tony tried to set up him the bomb with the fake idol clue, which Tony would've done with any alpha male. His second best moment, with the "I'm a male model, Google me." was funny. After that, he had nothing.

Please note the biggest reason I had J'Tia so low was because she had no hope for longevity in the game - something I've insisted since the season was airing. She was cast to be an early boot, plain and simple, and I'm not a fan of them doing that.

But yeah, Cagayan is their best cast ever. Top five (newbies only) also includes Borneo, Australian Outback, Pearl Islands, and China. Kaoh Rong and HHH are pretty solid too, but it's a shame those seasons didn't play out in the ways they could have with all the personalities. Unless of course HHH picks up from here... which it SHOULD.
