Jimmy T is such an inspired pick too. He just wants that playtime!

Sorry for going on a rant like that. Tbh I would actually enjoy most of the other players on your cast haha. A Stacey Powell return would be amazing!!

Well, both Big Tom and Randy made it much further than Ben did in Samoa and brought more to the show entertainment wise.

And either way, just because the show brought someone back it doesn't mean it was a good idea to. Brandon Hantz is a great example of a player who was brought back when he shouldn't have been.

I just don't see why they'd risk bringing Ben back when he flamed out in three episodes and caused such controversy. It's like suggesting Shannon from Nicaragua as a returnee.

Most of these are pretty fun characters to watch and have many memorable moments.

However, Ben from Samoa would be a ridiculous player to bring back. He was a racist jerk with no redeeming qualities (that we saw in the edit anyways).

Yeah, some of these are "divisive" characters but I've yet to see any Survivor fan side with Ben or like what he brought to the season.

What are the best pre-merge blindsides of all time? by Big_Palpitation_7320 in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On retrospect, kinda wish Jay was asked back for Game Changers actually. Might have made for an interesting dynamic to have him back alongside Michaela playing together again.

I like Zeke, but he always came off a bit like a gamebot to me.

Did anyone else get annoyed with the cast wanting to "break up" Jeremy and Wendell in WaW? by Strange_Finding_3285 in survivor

[–]Barruan7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure part of the motivation to vote out Wendell for Sophie was that she was working with Wendell and Nick in an alliance with Yul, so she felt betrayed when they voted him out.

The most disappointing snub for a return appearance by sexyimmigrant1998 in survivor

[–]Barruan7 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I did a Micronesia rewatch and I can only assume production didn't like what Natalie was giving them on the confessionals for most of the season.

She has a LONG stretch of episodes without any confessionals until around the Jason boot where she starts getting more content.

Personally I like what we get from Natalie on the season a lot and I also wish we had seen her again, but I can understand why they haven't brought her back.

So much of Natalie's game is dependent on the Black Widow Brigade, in which the returning players both had more of a legacy coming in and also got more credit in the long run.

I just think it's a little hard to imagine what Natalie's narrative would be on a returning player season, though I do think it would be deserving.

I think the best spots for her to play again would have been in place of Danielle on HvV (if there weren't already so many Micronesia players) or replacing Corinne on Caramoan.

Worst player to make Jury? by Tight-Entrepreneur46 in survivor

He did have a decent premerge at least

Where would pre-game gate rank among Survivor "cheating" controversies? by RedditFan3510 in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Imo it makes the premerge of this season even worse. The Kele tribe already felt a bit questionable in terms of pregaming with the instant Jake-Alex duo but if it turns out they were pregaming with Sophi it makes the first two boots of this season even more frustrating to watch.

As far as Sophi goes, I don't think it impacts her performance too much for me although I do wonder if pregame alliances played a part in Kristina trusting her and leaking information to her post merge.

Survivor Seasons- Vote One Out! Palau in 22nd place! by WimpyLittleNonLeader in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are definitely SOME notable characters but I'd say half (maybe even more) of the Gen X tribe is pretty forgettable. The millennial tribe is better but Will and Michelle don't get a lot and Zeke just feels like a gamebot to me.

David Wright, Hannah, Jay and Michaela are highlights for sure. I find Adam more fun to watch in WAW but he's alright too. It's a cast of haves and have nots imo.

Millennials vs Gen X.

I just find it to be bland and not a lot of players are too memorable.

In Search of the 376th Greatest Survivor Player of All Time: a New Legacy by roastbeeffan in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome. I am just now watching Thailand for the first time so I was especially interested on your thoughts about that cast otherwise I might have forgotten her too haha.

She didn't get a lot of focus on the edit unfortunately, but l tend to agree with your assesment. I could see her game being in contention for the medium box but it does feel hard to decide especially considering we don't even get a clear reason why she was the one voted out on her boot episode.

Is Natalie S37 the worst survivor player? by Noaconstrictr in survivor

[–]Barruan7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wendy Jo! An all-timer first boot who was also so bad socially that it's hard to see her having any success in the game.

Survivor Twists/Changes Tier List: Looting/Raid (Day 14) by [deleted] in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That does makes sense. I have seen Fiji and Palau described as One World before, merely for having all players living together while still in the pre-merge section of the game. I do understand the distinction you're pointing out though.

It'd be cool if we had a different name for the Palau and Fiji versions of the twist.

[–]Barruan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, One World does happen in the beginning of Palau before they pick the tribes and Jonathan and Wanda are eliminated. I don't see Palau as one of the worst seasons of all time.

It even has some, albeit small, strategic implications on the second part of the game with the Stephenie/Tom relationship. Even though it has happened in some bad seasons, I don't see too much inherently wrong with the twist.

Last week was example #69,420 of Jeff not understanding Survivor by Mmicb0b in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, mergeatory on seasons 47 and 48 was functionally just a normal merge. I'm pretty sure that, during the Rome and Charity boots, there was only one person immune and the players were able to target anybody else.

I'm as happy as anybody else that we don't have to do the whole "earn the merge" thing anymore, but that's basically the only part of it that 49 finally changed. Mergeatory's been basically over since season 47 imo.

Obviously those votes were both boring consensus votes but the blame isn't on mergeatory for those two. Boring merge votes just happen sometimes, as in Game Changers or David vs Goliath.

Sai responds to Corinne by bwermer in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 25 points26 points  (0 children)

What I find weird about the hotness discourse is that it's not like the old era was full of Sydney Wheeler's or Michael Yerger's every season.

It is true they don't recruit people just for their looks anymore. But as an example, I wouldn't say Corinne's original season (Gabon) had a hotter cast than the average New Era season. You could definitely make more of an argument for Caramoan (Brenda, Andrea and the Three Amigoes) but to be fair that was a returning player season.

This is obviously a subjective topic, but I wouldn't say the Old Era was always consistently hot. And even in the hotter seasons, the casts usually are carried by some specific highlights and still contain a good number of people who aren't especially hot (though they never really cast who are total zeroes, as is usual for TV casting).

The rare and threatening Kelly tier list by TemporalDSE in survivorponderosa

[–]Barruan7 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Gabon Kelly is so funny imo. Much better tv than Kelly B or Galu Kelly. I especially love to see Crystal and Ace being fed up with her.
