Listen Flynn, it doesn’t matter if pearl islands was a top 5 or not. Brother we love these 20 or 30 minute breakdowns so we want them on every season. If your serious about top 5. I’d say: Cagayan Game changers Winners at war Worlds apart Second chance Not in that order but that’s the real top 5
Darrah becoming a late game challenge beast was my favorite part of this season. She didn't get a lot of screentime early on, but she was definitely close to winning!
@@TheChamp33it's almost like production set that plan up specifically for her to fail. Kinda feels like they didnt want her to win cos she wasnt as big a personality compared to others in the game
This is a pretty great season. Great cast especially the big names. The pirate theme was great. The Outcast twist I feel like actually enhanced the season. i would rank it 6th.
One of my favorite seasons of all time. So many great moments, so many iconic players, and the theme was so freaking good. I never get enough of Fairplay's lie. Seriously, aside from Borneo, this is the season new Survivor watchers must watch
what is funny about the spelling challenge, if Jeff didn't make the mistake of giving immunity to Burton when he got something wrong, Sandra would most likely win the challenge.
As much as the outcast twist was maligned at the time, it’s way more in the spirit of the game than Redemption Island or EOE. Both were designed to favor the likes of Russell Hantz (ooop), Ozzy, and Joey Amazing. In the Outcast Twist, the players in the game proper at least had a chance to prevent it. The players only had their torches unstuffed at the merge instead of the final few days, and the out wit and out play was still a factor as they had to be voted back into the game- the biggest factor absent in Redemption Island and EOE.
I just wish the castaways had this information in advance. That’s the biggest thing I don’t like about when they bring in new twists - final 4 fire, EOE, etc.
Nicole is my favorite first boot for being exactly that. For atleast trying to olay and getting screwed by Lil, unlike some others who just screwed themselves over for almost no reason (hence John and Diane).
Drake’s voting out Burton was their demise, he was not only the strongest player, but also very smart. Had the kept him, they would have won all the immunity challenges up to the merger.
@@FlynnMasters Ik,him,Wendell and Bryce from Cagayan,hosting a Watch party for 42,I was gonna to one for winners at war 2 years ago but couldn’t,so yeah it’ll be fun hopefully
didn't they do a hypothetical vote at the reunion where Lil picked Fairplay and it was revealed that she would've won over him? So in reality she would've beat Fairplay.
Jon Fairplay and Burton Roberts have recently stated that she secluded herself throughout the first 3 days and that she hadn't formed any social connections. The challenge came down to a photo finish and it makes you wonder how different Survivor history would be. Sandra would be a long-forgotten first boot if Morgan won the first immunity challenge.
@@survivorfortyseveral This was before she became a legend for her social game. Burton and Fairplay have said she was overly seclusive during the first 3 days and would have been Drake's easy consensus vote.
This is the only season in which I'm okay with eliminated players coming back even though they definitely gave them food or something to give them an advantage for that challenge. Still Top 5 seasons easily...Top 3 easily.
It's quite obvious even though you make these videos and go through the content to edit it together, you still haven't truly watched it, and are just matching the content to online summaries of what's happening.
Just finished watching this season for the first time! Such a great season, I loved the Outcast thing. Jon is one of the most useless people on the planet.
Just rewatched this season as it is my favorite, especially for it's theme, but then I watched the lastest episode from season 45....Survivor has gone backwards and found it so boring.
Don't like the first part of the first episode. Same issue with the amazing race. Huge cringe factor when traipsing through poor country and asking for help. I know peeps are happy to accommodate, but still... Great season. Rewatching in order. Best of the bunch for now
