To add on to what Mario said- another reason is the release of the DVD. I, for one, liked the season more after watching it once or twice on DVD, and I know
other people did too. It's never going to be in the top tier, but it definitely got a boost with the Funny 115 and the DVD release.
Also, the one thing I will never, ever understand here at Sucks is why so many people consider Guatemala to be boring. You don't have to like it (I know alot of people don't because of Steph), but boring? Not exactly the term I'd use. It's personally my third favorite season of all time for several reasons, with the main one being the cast. It was excellent, and you got to know almost everyone save for a couple of the early boots. It also had some really, really funny moments (see Funny 115) and Judd is one of the best characters to ever be on the show, in my opinion. I was also incredibly shocked by some of the boots. I love it when I'm personally blindsided when Jeff is reading the votes- usually I can figure it out as the tribe votes. But I totally miscalled the Blake, Brian, Gary, and Cindy boots. The only one I can say that for in Micronesia, for example, was Ozzy. I did not see that one coming, but Guatemala had plenty of surprises for me. And Micronesia will not be ranked so high a year from now. Good season, but it isn't destined for the top 3. |

Yeah, definitely. If there was ever a season that screamed for a second viewing, it was Vanuatu. The first few episodes are so bad that I think many viewers automatically tuned out and gave up on it when they saw them on TV. And unfortunately when they did that, they missed a hell of a season. In fact, I can't think of another season that would have benefitted from a DVD release more than Vanuatu. Watching it again, a second time (without weeks in between episodes) literally turned people's opinions around. I think Jeff hit the nail right on the head. Had Vanuatu not been released on DVD, it would probably still be ranked at the bottom. Hell, Vanuatu is in my top five seasons, and it took me two or three viewings to really appreciate it. I hated it the first time I saw it as well. |

I don't have the time or energy to go back and add everything up, so just take the 50 points off Guatemala. |

people hate Rupert to and PI is ranked number one. The season was top notch for me, but I guess others see it differently. To each his(or her) own I guess.

Thank you RavuRules for taking over. I saw you started this thread anyways so I think it's better you be in charge of the calculating.Goddammit. But I don't wanna be the tally bitch *whines* J/K. Anyways, I tallied up the figures (gawd, now I know how people on The Amazing Race feel when they have to do those long counting roadblocks), and my numbers were different from some of the numbers the others came up with. I believe, Edinboro, KP, and yourself all tallied up the numbers, and sometimes, some errors from one person's miscalculations carried over to another person's. Unless I'm the one miscalculating. These are the numbers I came up with in comparison to your last update chad6. Your numbers are in red, mine are in blue. If there is no blue, then I got the same number as you 1. PEARL ISLANDS- 128 2. MICRONESIA- 153 (155) 3. BORNEO - 156 (155) 4. AUSTRALIA - 173 5. CHINA- 189 (190) 6. MARQUESAS - 193 (194) 7. AMAZON - 212 8. VANUATU - 269 (282) 9. PANAMA - 272 (271) 10. AFRICA - 282 11. PALAU - 295 12. GUATEMALA - 297 (283) 13. COOK ISLANDS - 333 (343) 14. ALL STARS - 334 (342) 15. THAILAND - 380 16. FIJI - 401 I'll post the updated tally with this new data in a moment I started with your page 40 post and then went to your last tally

Even though the unfairly demonized Judd was colourful all the way through and I loved watching Stephame Lord over people there was a lot to dislike about the season. Lydia,Cindy,Rafe and Danni were boring but through bad luck ended up in the Final 5 with Queen Steph. The Gary Hogeboom/Hawkins can he hide his indentity thing was unneccasarily dragged out and likely only tacked on as a side story because Danni was the eventual winner. The Bobby Jon/Jamie rivalry was something that was heightened way too over the top because their were very few colourful incidents to work with. Almost all the early boots that season got Mary level screen time. And the Blake boot was a complete wtf kind of thing in a boring nonsensical way. Showing the complete strategical reasonining behind his boot would have worked a whole lot better then the he was booted cause he told annoying sex stories edit he got. Other than maybe Fiji I can't recall a single season as badly handled by storyboard editing as this one. |

I think the reason Guatemala is ranked so low is the focus on the rise and fall of the Rafe/Steph alliance instead of focusing on Danni's comeback story,
had Guatemala been edited more recently, I think it would have been a MUCH more successful season. It's still a really great, dark season, but it would
have been a lot more satisfying had they given Danni something at least.

First of all, disclaimer: All survivor seasons are amazing productions of reality television and when I say I "Hated" something, it's only
relative to the other seasons.
1. Pearl Islands 2. Borneo 3. Amazon 4. China 5. Vanuatu 6. Micronesia 7. Exile Island 8. Guatemala 9. Africa 10. Australia 11. ASS 12. Marquesas 13. Palau 14. Thailand 15. Fiji 16. Cook Islands Ok, bitch about my high vanuatu ranking and low marquesas/australia ratings, but the fact is, Vanuatu's cast greatly appealed to my tastes whereas the other two did not. PI/Borneo are essentially interchangeable, as are Fiji/CI. The reasons I ranked them as I did were because I liked Sandra more than Richard, and Fiji, while the premerge was awful, had a decent postmerge, whereas CI was just meh all around. On another note, the winner of a season really makes a difference for me in terms of how I rank the season as a whole. Micronesia would have been higher had Amanda/Cirie won, but instead, one of my least favorites won so it gets knocked down. |
