I actually liked this season a lot. The cast was pretty likeable, I just wish Zapatera had lasted longer because they were definitely the more likeable team. I actually like the redemption island format because it gives people a fighting chance if they're voted out, though I'm glad it wast made a regular thing. I definitely think they should bring back Redemption Island for Blood vs. Water after thinking about it though. It would add even more drama to the losing loved ones thing because they could come back.

I liked this season also. They used to replay it on one of the reality channels here so I've seen it a few times and I do really enjoy it. I just love watching the way Rob played! And Mike from Zapatera has become one of my favourite survivors. I don't know why because he didn't do a whole lot really but I just really like him! And David!

David is one of my favorites too! I want him to return but they probably won't ask him back.
....gross. I just looked up whether he and Carolina were still together and apparently he cheated with Alicia from One World...out of all people to cheat with?!

Ehhhh.... I don't think it was as bad as people thought, I'm a fan of Boston Rob so I actually sort of liked this season, I would say Palau was the worst season, not RI. David had potential, probably would've been a threat if Rob wasn't leading the Ometepes.
This season would've been a lot better if:
- No returning players (Or maybe not Boston Rob and Russell after just one season of them not appearing) - RI only happens pre-merge and nobody knows about the challenges, so the person who rejoins at the merge is a complete surprise. - Maybe have an immunity idol at RI, as a sort of veto if somebody doesn't want to compete in a challenge, the duel is then held off until the next person arrives.

I loved this season, but I too have a small love for Boston Rob, ever since Marquesas. For me the worst season is hands down Fiji. I love the concept of RI, but the way they go about it kind of annoys me. I think someone should reenter the game a lot sooner than Final 4/5.

Agreed, you're pretty much screwed when you re-enter, the other 4 voted you out for a reason. It doesn't give you much other than higher placement.

I fee as if when it comes to RI, they should have it 2 Finalists, only 7 Jurors, with a cast of 20, that way they can have the returnee from RI come into the game right at the merge.

Yeah that's the best way to go, I really hope they do that for future seasons that may have RI.

Not sure why I said I liked it a lot. It had a lot of good players though. I enjoyed watching Andrea, Ashley, Matt, David, Francesca, Steve, Julie, Stephanie.

I really enjoyed this season! I loved watching Boston Rob - he played a perfect game. Aside from Philip, I enjoyed this cast. And Mike Chiesl has to be one of the best looking guys I have seen on this show which helped

From what little I watched, Stephanie was a headcase. Like a poor, POOR man's version of Eliza, it's honestly one of the few I couldn't finish watching and as a Russell hater, I really wish he would have stuck around to cause chaos and make this season suck less. I always wonder how different the edit would be if Ashley made ftc and won?

This thread is full of liars. Even me being a Boston Rob fan boy isn't helping this season out for me. I'm on episode 11 and can't wait for it to be over. No one who made the merge was all that likable or memorable besides Rob, Andrea, Phillip, and the most beautiful Survivor ever, Natalie. David and Mike were all right. I would want to see them come back and play. The pre-merge was great though. Zapatera didn't even try to strategize after the merge. They just all kinda gave up.
I also thought it was funny that Matt was blindsided TWICE.

It was the start of an awful run of seasons and tbh, Russell staying would have probably made for a better season. He gets Robed voted out, crashes and burns, and we get a much more interesting season.

Just saw this, why do you think Palau is worse than RI or that Palau is the worst season?

I still enjoyed watching most of this season. There's no season I don't enjoy watching.
The biggest thing I hate coming out of this season is people thinking he is GOAT because of his win because lol.

He's overrated. Not to mention he played well 1/4 times and only won because of who he was against (Ashley would've easily beat him). A bunch of the jurors even said they wanted to not vote Rob, but the other two didn't even put up any kind of argument to give them the win. Phillip argued and antagonized the juror and Natalie looked to Rob before answering each question lol.

I honestly feel like they cast 17 dumb f*ckers including Russell so Rob could win
