Is it just me or is this the best Survivor since number one? Most of the cast is likeable and worthy competitors. The locale is fun and the theme is creative. The challenges have been interesting, though I'd like to see a few more mental competitions. Come on, who wouldn't like to try shooting one of those cannons?

This Survivor just has it all for me so far and promise of more fun and surprises to come.

I totally agree!!

Ever since the first episode of this Survivor, I was saying, "This one's the best one since the first!!"

I don't know what MB did to change it, but he must have done SOMETHING, to have such a big change/improvement!!

Maybe it's cause everyone not so out there cut-throat..
They all do it secretly.
LOL

But really, I was feeling abit down for a few Survivors, and wasn't really feeling it as much as I used to, but this Survivor's got me back in the groove!

Certainly in the top 3. I liked Survivor 1 & 2 the best so far and this is as good if not better than 2.

I thinks it's the best so far! I haven't ever been this anxious to see a new show!! I am loving this season, especially Rupert.

What a great thread... I totally agree! I don't dislike any of the survivors. I think they are truely playing a good game.

I feel they respect one another. They came to play a game, they are playing it, and they aren't trying to hurt each other more than they have to.

Rupert is wonderful, and my pick to win, but even if he doesn't, I feel like I won't have wasted my time watching.

Sooooo much better then the fiasco of last season.

I am really enjoying it too. I think making the reward challenge that much more important to win was great. I like the looting part and hope it continues to be used in following seasons. Not sure about any of the other twists they may have out there. There are also people we can root for - and against. There are surprises this year - despite the spoilers :)

I wish BB would take a page out of the Survivor book and have more balanced casting and make the challenges more worth winning.

This is my favorite Survivor ever! I really enjoyed the first year but I think because it was something new. When I compare the personalities this year to the first year, this year's survivors are better by far IMO.

I hate when the hour is over and I can't wait for next Thursday!!

I would have to agree. I LOVE the pirate theme and the personalities. I have watched Survivor since it started and really got hooked from the first season. The second one was great too, but after that they have been rather ho-hum (but I still watched LOL)

I didn't watch Sur 1 with ya'll, but caught the replay & wanted to kick my own butt for not being part of this. I loved Sur 2 (Colby especially). I've enjoyed every Sur & not missed a single episode. Last season's start: male/female & the season b/4 that: 2 oldest pick their tribes, were not good starts for me. The one prior to that - Vecepia won - Worst yet! This one is my Fav because it's the one happening right now. Rupert is my all time fav survivor! This Survivor is definetly top 3 & that's just so far. Could this end up being the all time top 1?

I agree! This Survovor is definitely in the top2 -maybe the best! It seems so much more fun, and I like how Jeff is really asking some hard questions at Tribal Council.

I agree this one is great. As for Jon, He loves himself enough for the both of us.

Love this one!! It is my favorite overall..and I loved the one with Ethan. I don't dislike anyone, either.

Ah...Ethan...
*Goes off into a daze*

I love his hair...
And Gabe's hair..his hair was nice too...
And Evil Dr. Will's..

And even Jon's has qualities of Ethan-Hair...

*sigh*

Er...oh yeah, Best Survivor since the first

LOL Neko, you and I have the same taste in men's hair!

Ethan and Silas... now THAT was a great season!!

I named my almost-one-year-old boy Ethan and it was most likely because of Ethan from Survivor. Shh, don't tell my DH though, I told him it was because "Ethan Frome" is one of my favorite books :P

LOL...we all agree pretty much that THIS Survivor is the best or at least second-to-best!!! So we MUST be right!!!! I love all Survivors, but I am really excited every week about this one...and feel the same as most about Rupert deserving to win...but we have been prepared enough from previous Survivors to know that Rupert probably won't win. I will accept it, as usual, and even though disappointed, as someone previously stated...it won't make the journey less enjoyable. I will be happy for the little time I did get to watch Rupert. He is adorable!!

Gidget: Great topic! I have been thinking it since the first show this season. I agree woulda loved to shoot the cannons,knowing my luck I woulda took out Jeff the host, or a endagered whale LOL

Everything is so much better this season, Jeff being more "pushy" during tribal counsil, the Pirate theme,and of course Rupert!
Viewers deserved a great Survivor after last season.. please.. Jenna and Heidi?? I Still cant eat peanut butter!!lol

Just hope it doesnt end up like first Survivor with a snake and rat in finale 2.. Osten and Jon lol I swear if that happens, will never watch again.. (I always say that then 2 weeks after survivor is over will have withdrawls and counting days till next Survivor LOL)

I like this season too. I was getting tired of seeing them starve and didn't even watch one of the past seasons. I think they have enough food this time to at least be able to move and be more interesting.

There are so many good twists in this one--starting with the no luggage beginining--which for one thing, meant no bikinis! And these people are not obvious wannabes sent by their agents. Don't think there are even any silicone breasts, are there? And Rupert is icing on the cake! I just wish some of these people would just once read up on survival skills. Coconuts can be used as bug repellant among other things. It hurts to see how bit-up they are!
