Samoa did start significantly lower than Tocantins and therefore had slightly lower overall ratings but the ratings for Samoa built up over the season so by the finale, the ratings for the finale were higher for Somoa than Tocantins. Which clearly suggests that the storyline attracted viewers as the season progressed and that is a very good sign for the season. Without going into further analysis, it suggests that a declining but still popular series was somewhat rejuvenated.

yes, FlashForward's premiere did pull viewers away from Survivor at first, but that effect diminished over time - showing that people preferred Survivor over the new series. It's always a bit hard to compare overall, since the relevant competition always plays a role in ratings. For years, Survivor had virtually no competition. In other words, overall ratings matter, but winning their own time slot matters most.

The deadline for submissions is Monday 1/11 @ 6pm Pacific time. To weigh in, simply list your top 20 favorite survivors of all time, along with the one survivor you consider to be the best. Submissions should be sent as follows: If your last name begins with A-K, submit your list to ian_potter6@yahoo.ca. If your last name begins with L-Z, submit your list to Shane at fooldisclosure989@gmail.com. I sent in my list this morning (see my full list below), and received email from Shane a few minutes ago indicating that they are getting lots of responses and the leader is currently "a dead tie" between Russell and Boston Rob. You can checkout the Survivor Fans Podcast Fans Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=41971611821&ref=ts And here's my Top 20 submission.

I can't remember the play of 20 of them! My all time favourites are Rob M, Ethan, Ozzie, Yau Man, JT and Yul. Second tier would be that other Rob (I think that must be Rob C) and Cirie.

I hear you Kitt! I look at the cast for some seasons, wonder if I ever watched it except for 1 or 2 people that seem mildly familiar... and I've watched every episode of every season! Jezzed, I did email in my answers

Now Lex would have been good. (Was that his name, Ethan's buddy?) I didn't particularly like him but he was definitely interesting.

Sorry about the above, I thought I was in the other thread, I meant he'd be good for Heroes Vs Villains.

Do you consider Lex a hero or a villian? I couldn't stand him, but i'm sure he considers himself a hero.

I think Lex was a villian and jerk on the show. But I have heard him on our local radio station often and he is a really nice guy. The radio host even called him out on being a jerk and Lex agreed and can laugh at himself. He really seems to be a nice guy.

I think he'd have to be a villain, but I agree, in real life I think he's probably a nice guy. I remember some of this after game interviews and he seemed to really understand the game was just a game.
