If you were forced to only watch a stretch of 4 seasons of your choosing and nothing else, what would it be? Vanuatu, Palau, Gabon, and I guess Panama.

That's a tough question. I'm stuck between a few options.
Africa, Marquesas, Thailand, Amazon.
China, Micronesia, Gabon, Tocantins.
Caramoan, BvW, Cagayan, and San Juan Del Sur
I kind of chose one from each "era."

I meant like what Brooke did where it's like seasons 1-4 or 5-8, etc. I would probably go with Vanuatu-Panama or Gabon-Heroes vs. Villains SJDS-Kaoh Rong is tempting tho

15-20 was definitely the Survivor Renaissance. That stretch is all amazing seasons.
25-32 is a pretty great stretch too except for Caramoan and I guess WA for some people, though I really liked it.

I was gonna say Gabon-HvV, but Samoa is kind of just the Russell show. China-Tocantins is an excellent stretch of well edited and interesting seasons. If a season didn't have the most memorable characters (Micro), there were a ton of memorable events. If there weren't a lot of memorable events (Tocantins), there were a bunch of memorable characters.

Also yeah Nate, I'm not high on WA at all or Second Chance. 27-30 would be a good stretch for me too if not for how WA went down.

Also I guess this more unpolar opinion thread worthy, but I don't like Micronesia too much. I think it's good on a first watch with all the blindsides and unpredictability, but it feels very shallow and weak with the cast. They don't feel fleshed out and I think it's where they start doing more strategy than character time. I'm not even a big BWB fan either, the Yasur alliance >>>>>

The more I let Micronesia sink in, the less I like it. It's still top 10 I'm pretty sure but the blindsides/drama doesn't make up for the kinda weak cast overall or it was just edited weirdly cuz it was at the crossroads of it moving towards strategy based edits rather than character based. It's also kinda similar to Caramoan in the fact that you knew the Fans were screwed from the merge so even if they acted like it was even, you knew the fans weren't making the FTC or winning if they did.

Micro fan tribe or Caramoan fan tribe? I liked Caramoan's more, they were actually interesting to watch when they got screentime, w/ Shamar vs the cool kids alliance vs the outsiders.

I don't really like either, but probably Micronesia. Shamar was so insufferable to me. Tracy, Chet, Kathy, Jason I liked from the fans tribe.

Micronesia Fans I Liked: The goddess that is Tracy, Natalie B, Jason
Caramoan: Queen Sherri, Laura and kinda Reynold and Eddie
Both tribes were overall pretty sh*t honestly. I guess I liked Caramoan a little better overall, but Tracy, Natalie and Sherri are all that really matter imo
I pray to god if they do FvF3 for season 36 that they get actual good fans and don't rig the game for some irrelevant production pet like Cochran.

I think Parvati's win on Micronesia is really average, maybe slightly above average at best. Her win is one of the most overrated wins out of all the players in survivor, however, I think shes one of the best players of all time. Just looking at her skill set, she really doesnt lack anything and is bred for this game. I agree shes one of he best to ever play but I think her Micro game is nothing to write home about. Thoughts?

I think her win is very flawed and she's a good player, but has a decent amount of flaws. I wouldn't even consider one of the best ever with Brian, Denise, Danni, Earl, Kim and then a lot of other winners like Natalie A too.

Like I see her better than natalie anderson from an objective view. Natalie played a way better game but Parvati has the better skill set- social, strategy, and physical.
