64. Jenna Bowman (Survivor: Ghost Island, 10th place) So as we phase between the dislike and apathy sections of the list were getting to the point where Ghost Island is going to start to take hits left and right. The first victim is Jenna, who early in the season we were led to believe was going to be this positive major character, but ended up just fading into obscurity shortly after the first swap. I guess its because they had to give even more screen time to the six characters who were already eating it up? Whatever the reason, past like Stephanie Johnsons boot episode where Jenna was shown crying, we were given hardly any reason to root for or care about her despite her seemingly being the focal point of a love triangle between Michael, Sebastian and herself that got all of two minutes of relatively ambiguous attention in the whole season. She then went on to suffer from what Im going to refer to from now on as Rebecca Borman syndrome, in which the first person booted in a double boot episode of any kind (including two full episodes aired back-to-back) doesnt get their final words aired which is utter bullshit. So yeah she didnt do anything despite having the potential to. not do nothing? So whatever. I dont care. Enjoy your boyfriend you got out of the deal.
And just for the sake of it, to justify putting her below some of the other upcoming yeah whatevers, I think she looks EXACTLY LIKE someone and I cant put my finger on it and that bugged me all season and still does when I see a pic of her.

Much like Level 6 in Big Brother 20, the pretty alliance on Malolo (Stephanie Johnson excluded) was an awful, boring collection of non-personalities. Casting on these shows loves to bring in pretty people to fill space and offer sex appeal, under the assumption that the biggest bores will be early boots (see what they thought about Chelsea compared to how she actually performed), and naturally they clique up time and time again to create a vortex of blandness. Ive already expressed my dislike of Michael, but Jenna is right down there in the muck with him. She was blandly bitchy, offered nothing to the season, and in her boot episode, she lined up to try and take out the only person on her tribe that actually wanted to work with her and was even willing to maybe play an idol on her. She sucked, but like the previous boot, she didnt impact the season enough to truly annoy me.
