What's up with the Outback hate (or early seasons for that matter) in this thread? Without Borneo, Outback, Africa, Marquesas, Thailand, Amazon, and Pearl Islands being so popular and epic, Survivor wouldn't be around today. These where the good old days where surviving and characters didn't take a backseat to strategy. I guess you'd have to live the first 7 seasons while they were on TV to get it.
