Alright getting down to the final 3. This next season is one I believed legitimized survivor's legacy. Pegged as possibly the best season ever from most fans, this season is:
HEROES VS. VILLAINS!
This was the season most survivor fans were waiting for since the show started. An All Star season done right. We had the original All Stars which had 2 quitters and a Rob/Amber domination and Micronesia was half Fans which the Favorites easily outsmarted. Heroes vs. Villains was the real test of the best of the best. The season felt special with just all the names come back. Look back to the premiere when you first see all the big names come together. Boston Rob, Russell, Sandra, Parvati, Rupert, Colby, Tom, JT, Amanda, Cirie, etc all on one beach and one season. You could tell right away this would be a special season.
The pre-merge lived up to the hype. We had the Rob-Russell villains rivalry, Jerri and Coach having an early "showmance", Sandra being herself and Parvati had the target on her back. Meanwhile on the Heroes we had JT changing his game completely, Tom living up to his legacy and finding a HII, Cirie trying to dominate the game again and Amanda actually flying UTR. There were honestly a lot of big votes too. JT smartly seeing Cirie was on her way to controlling another tribe so he uses Tom and Colby to blindside her and one of my favorite votes ever, the Tyson blindside. Seriously when Russell got up, played the idol on Parvati and still stayed, my jaw dropped. I was never more shocked about a tribal council than that one. We also saw big downfalls from Tom and Boston Rob as well. There was also a clever move from Sandra to put paranoia in Russell's ear by targeting Coach. Then of course going into the merge, we see JT take one of the biggest risks in survivor history that ended up blowing up in his face courtesy of Parvati's 2 green men.
Then we see some funny moments after JT is gone. Amanda and Danielle fight over a HII clue, Rupert uses a rock to vote out Candice and Sandra pulls the HII out of her braw. We also saw a character rivalry with Russell and Rupert. The final 3 also happened to be epic in Russell, Parvati and Sandra. Parvati and Sandra may have been the best top 2 ever or are at least up there. It was really amazing to see Sandra be so openly against Russell and still win as a minority member of the villains plus the duo of Russell and Parvati. They were very interesting to watch as I believe both had a hand in getting the other as far as they did like Parvati said in the FTC.
I can't really think of any negatives that stand out about this season besides maybe a more exciting post-merge but tbh, the Candice and Danielle vote-offs were pretty fun to watch too and the Jerri vote basically meant the game. Overall I thought this season had the best cast ever and may have been the most entertaining television as well which is what a season like this is supposed to do.

ohh I just noticed nicaragua was last, I think it was a hilarious dark comedy so it shouldn't be that low, but it wasn't really satisfying at all so I can understand that
and I haven't seen HvV yet because I want to see Gabon/Marquesas first, but all three should live up to my expectations
i love amazon but no way it's at the top
also why is nicaragua so low i'm too lazy to go back and read
