I feel I've given enough time for everyone to tag. Back to normal update pace, and not-so-normal outliers.

#18: Blood vs. Water
Average Ranking: 18.73

Illuminatus: 10 - No writeup

BCT: 14 - I really need to rewatch this one. I remember the fun stuff: Marissa and Candice both unloading on Fuck You, Brad Culpepper, Im votin for BRAD. (Rest in Peace, Caleb Bankston), the rock draw, and Redemption Island actually being interesting for once. Oh, and Colton being back for the bad, but at least he quit and got himself banned.

Mana Sword: 14 - No writeup

darkx: 16 - No writeup

GTM: 18 - coconut bandits

eaed: 18 - This season is unique in that on a first watch it had you on the end of your seat and on a rewatch it is easy to get sucked into just how good Tysons game is. Plus, this is like the one scenario where Redemption Island worked really well and on top of that they were fortunate to get a nice batch of returnees but the newbies didnt seem as outclassed as others in this format have.

Naye745: 18 - despite potential pitfalls (yet another Redemption Island season and a risky gimmick/twist theme) this was mostly fun. winner was good and deserving, the newbies in the cast often outshined their returnee counterparts, and someone even VOTED OUT THEIR MOM! (wow)

DoctorBlind: 19 - Pretty weak cast of returning players this time around, but I really enjoyed some of the new players. Big moves!

YoRyan: 22 - a survivor season

Inviso: 23 - Blood vs. Water is the third and most uninspiring of Survivors three Fans vs. Favorites-style seasons. In this instance, the fans were loved ones of the favorites, so that made for some interesting cross-tribal dynamics, but ultimately, the cast isnt that strong and the gameplay isnt exceptional. There are only a few real blindsides, and a lot of the early action is dictated by pre-game alliances that are never alluded to in the show itself. By the time the endgame rolls around, the dominant alliance pretty much has everything go their way and they face no genuine opposition in order to reach the final three, where we receive a blowout winner. Redemption Island works in the early game because you have loved ones interacting with each other after one half of the pair has been voted outbut you can say that about all three instances of pre-merge Redemption Island. Its only a terrible twist once it continues in the post-merge. Ultimate, Blood vs. Water has a handful of big moments, but they all kinda flop and it leads to a rather bland season overall.

FBike: 34 - The premise was so tempting, and then it was ruined by the abomination that is Redemption Island. This is when I initially stopped watching Survivor.
