Never cared for it as a season, for the fact that it was boring the whole way through. It has its fans though, and I know how people felt about Redemption Island (which I loved), because they're similar in how they go.
imo watching it live was super refreshing bc i personally HATED redemption and south pacific (and to a lesser extent nicaragua) so this to me was the start of a new era so i was super into it
idk how well it holds up but i found it to be solid as it aired despite the haters
KarmaSutra I watched South Pacific before One World and I found myself actually really enjoying SP and being pretty thoroughly entertained. The upside to One World is the few entertaining personalities such as Tarzan, Troyzan, Colton, Alicia, Kim, and a few others, but strategically a huge chunk of the cast lacks much depth. I am on the merge episode and I have people whose names I don't know. That has NEVER happened to me with a Survivor season. I am super good with names.
splozojames50 I haven't been bothered by the existence of RI in SP or BvW but I haven't seen the original RI season. I like the One World twist as a concept and I wouldn't mind seeing it again but binge-ing the season just ain't doing it for me.
lionsden121 I thought Leif's name was Michael until that episode where Leif was really important where they gave up immunity to vote him out but didn't vote him out.
