Actually, I stand corrected. Guatemala is out too and that's in my top 10.

26. Gabon - Way too low
27. Guatemala - Way too low
28. Fiji - About right
29. South Pacific - Way too high
30. Caramoan - Too high
31. Game Changers - Maybe a little too low but I don't care enough to complain
32. Ghost Island - A little too high but whatever
33. Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers - Way too low
34. Nicaragua - A little harsh but whatever
35. Worlds Apart - About right
36. Edge of Extinction - See Nicaragua
37. One World - See Edge of Extinction
38. Thailand - Fine
39. Redemption Island - About right
40. Island of the Idols - Nailed it

Deserve to stick around for a while longer:
Borneo
Marquesas
The Amazon
Pearl Islands
Vanuatu
Exile Island
China
Tocantins
Heroes vs. Villains
Philippines
Blood vs. Water
Cagayan
San Juan del Sur
Kaoh Rong
David vs. Goliath
Winners at War

Due out in the next five spots or so:
The Australian Outback
Africa
Palau

Overdue:
All-Stars
Cook Islands
Samoa

Due/overdue but won't because too many people love them for God knows why:
Micronesia
Cambodia
Millennials vs. Gen X

If I had to predict what the rest of the list would approximately look like, I'd say something like...
25. Africa
24. All-Stars
23. Marquesas
22. Samoa
21. Tocantins
20. Cook Islands
19. Palau
18. Vanuatu
17. The Australian Outback
16. San Juan del Sur
15. Blood vs. Water
14. Exile Island
13. Philippines
12. Winners at War
11. Kaoh Rong
10. The Amazon
9. Millennials vs. Gen X
8. Borneo
7. China
6. David vs. Goliath
5. Cagayan
4. Pearl Islands
3. Micronesia
2. Cambodia
1. Heroes vs. Villains

Man the reception for SJDS really has shifted, hasn't it? People hated that season while it was airing, now the general consensus seems to be that it's a solid mid-tier season at worst.

there's a trio in the house in the final 6, 2 of them are on the block

the most athletic player in the game just pulled a Marcellas by using the veto on his showmance instead of himself (he's dumb)

the HOH, convinced that the plan is to vote out the athletic guy, instead of putting up the 3rd in the trio, put up a pawn, who's in on the goal (she was convinced the 3rd was going to go home in she put him up) (HOH is dumb, pawn is dumb)

so now 2 of the 3 people voting are in his trio, including his showmance, and the 3rd voter is the 4th in the alliance, and they may keep the athletic guy instead of taking the chance to vote him out (if this happens they are dumb)

terrible gameplay by everyone, everyone is dumb (https://realitystockwatch.com/trades , the highest rating is a 4)

interesting vote tomorrow to see if they actually keep him to save the trio on a week that one of them should've went home, or if they take the chance to cut him out of the alliance and complete the marcellas

I disagree entirely. I hated the pre-merge just as much as I've ever hated modern Survivor, but the post-merge bumped it (barely) into my top half.

Odd. In my eyes, the loss of the old school legends proved detrimental to the season, and the storytelling fell into the modern predictability with the excess advantages clouding the actual goings-on of the game. Also Edge of Extinction was too much of an edit hog. Pre-merge... you had those great personalities and epic stuff like the Robfather's mass bag-emptying scene, Yul's story about Penner's wife (RIP), and Parvati wanting to know if she was being Punk'd.

I will say that the jury mobbing Probst after the loved ones visit was pretty awesome though. Aside from that and Tony's entire CPM6 episode, I don't remember much else between merge and finale.

Honestly, the pre-merge was the good part of the season with a bad boot order, and then post-merge had a horrible boot order, but was salvaged by the final episode having a near-perfect boot order.

The post-merge had:

-Adam salvaging himself from being the second-worst character of the season by having that hilarious episode where he was obsessed with the podium
-Ben of all people actually growing on me quite a bit
-Michele being awesome and adorable
-Tyson back in the game and being great
-Tony owning everybody
-Lots of hilarious little moments like the fashion show or Tony and Jeremy having an argument about how many days are in a week; stuff that rarely gets shown on modern Survivor
-For the first time in Survivor history, the final three were my three favorite characters of the season

The best part of the pre-merge was Denise idoling out Sandra with her own idol, and even that wasn't great because it resulted in us losing Sandra.

I've also heard complaints that there were too many unconventional eliminations, to which I rip open the wall and show those people Micronesia.

Also, the whole Aubry not winning thing made a LOT of people upset. And I was at the time (not enough for it to make me hate the season) but in retrospect (especially after seeing her play two more times and seeing the chick that beat her play again), the jury made the right call.

I don't have Kaoh Rong THAT low, but...
1. The jocks' bullying makes me uncomfortable
2. The MedEvacs are too numerous and stifle the excitement
3. Production dropped the ball in so many ways, including with safety measures, evacuating Joe del Campo when Dr. Joe had him treated in like 20 minutes (per the Ponderosa video), having the juror removal twist on Day 38, and... the list goes on
4. The bullies getting the last laugh has never sat right with me since they were big babies and closed their minds to voting Aubry (some troll called me a "misogynist" over that lately, to which I replied that they were a bully who gets off to name-calling and blocked them). I'm not saying Michele didn't deserve to win (because she DID deserve it) - just that Aubry deserved a fairer shake than those two idiots were willing to give her.
5. It made Jeff Probst ruin the show.
6. I just enjoy other seasons more.

I find its placement appropriate on that list.

Please elaborate on this, because out of 30-34, I'd say it did the least to contribute to the show's decline.

Like I'm actually confused on what this season did to contribute to the show's decline other than Michele winning, which, Adam and Sarah were the final straws.

Most of your other points are valid even if I don't necessarily agree with them all hurting the season.

i'm not surprised to see it here, but it's honestly the most far-off from my personal rankings so far. all i can say is i hope cydney gets her due as a great character (as i'm sure there will be barrels of love for aubry and michele) and a great player; despite all the returnees they've already brought back from 32, there are still quite a few good options, and she's at the top of the list.

I'm really not feeling this season. It feels like an expounded version of US Survivor's current soullessness, but exacerbated by an omnipresent twist that's befuddling and numerous interchangeable characters (I seriously can't tell the difference between two groups of three after three episodes). While I am impressed with the editing, as usual, the characterization is lacking, which means memorability suffers for it.

Am I the only one feeling this way?

The worst part about it is that I'm not even sure that the fire making challenge would've led to Jeff's desired outcome in GC (Brad winning). The best Brad could manage was a tie with Tai at the reunion after a season where Brad got a pretty strong edit and Tai didn't. Then you add in that Tai probably gets credit for taking out Sarah, which should swing it in his favor. Of course, this is assuming Sarah doesn't manage to just get Brad to take her to the end anyway, which I think she would've had a decent chance of pulling off anyway.
