    I just started watching Survivor in S43 and decided to go back to Kaoh Rong and binge up to 42 (no real rhyme or reason, I just heard that season was good and kept going). I didn’t know about the issues with this season at all until I got to it and as I watched became SO CONFUSED as to how this was being handled. I really appreciate you all taking the space to talk about it and process it bc CBS really didn’t. Loved this chat and glad y’all celebrated the bright spots in this season.

    Not to defend you know who but this season gets a lot of bad rap. The premerge is excellent and I actually thought the IoI itself was a better version of Ghost Island because at least stuff happened week to week. The merge episode is what ruins the season, but there are some highlights post merge. I am not going to say this is a top 10 season or anything, but I'd rather watch the first 6 episodes of this season than the entirety of One World.

      The worst thing for me is that it took so long for them to kick Dan off. We saw in one of the first people episodes that Kelly was concerned and it only took him touching a producer for it to be fixed. In Thailand Ted admitted to it (kind of) and it really seemed like the tribe wanted to move on for the better or worse. It’s unfortunate that in the end Gandhia just got the boot but times were much different then, not to excuse either of them though.

    I only watched Island of the Idols recently, shortly after Winners At War and had no clue about the controversy, the players etc.
    I can only agree with a lot that you have said in the video:
    The whole Dan situation aside, its actually in my opinion one of the better first time player seasons of the show. However, you really can't put the Dan situation aside entirely. It is so integral to the narrative of the entire season and how the season played out that even just from a gameplay perspective, it can't be ignored. And I also think it shouldn't be ignored, since it is important to learn from that experience for CBS, the players and the viewers. I can totally understand why a lot of people don't want to watch this season ever again or why they stopped watching at the time, it's ugly and has some really dark moments.
    That said, i do think that Island of the Idols does have one of the strongest first time player casts in a long time, maybe since Cagayan? Like you guys said, there is (aside from the one massive dud) almost nobody that doesnt contribute in some way to the season and that is pretty rare in my opinion. I would be thrilled to say a lot of them play again eventually and get a second chance, especially since i think a lot of their game is understandably overshadowed by everything surrounding Dan.
    But even aside from the Dan situation, the season also had its issues. I totally agree that the inconsistency of the risks/rewards at the Island of the Idol was a big issue, culmanating with the incredibly stupid coin toss that completely changed the game and not in a good way. The season also continued the issues of previous seasons, with having too many idols and advantages. There are just too many gimmicks flying around, that it actually hurts the gameplay a lot. I think idols are great, but only in moderation. Between season 16 und 31, they probably hit the spot with the amount of advantages and idols and it is noticable in the quality of seasons. By now the game of survivor devolved into a game of who can find the most gimmicks. You dont have to play a strong strategic, social or physical game, if you are able to just find idols for council after council. That takes a lot out of the game and ultimately sours the idols themselves as well. I like the idea of having idols only until the final 7 and maybe even a limit on how often they get reset.
    Overall, i dont think I would put Island of the Idols on Number 40 of my personal list, but I understand why a lot of people chose this spot for the season. Removing myself a little from the controversy and the mistakes production made in handling it, i think it would probably rank somewhere in the middle of a ranking between 20 & 25.
    Looking forward to the podcasts in the future!

    This season ranked #35 for me personally. The pre-merge had some decent moments but too much focus on people who weren't going to go far in the season. The merge is not very good because you have everything that happened with Dan combined with all the focus on Karishma and Noura, who we all knew weren't going to win. After the ejection, you basically knew Tommy was most likely going to win because Laura didn't have a good enough edit. The cast wasn't very memorable for me outside of Janet, Elaine, or even Jason (dude deserves another shot someday). Tommy was a solid winner for the season, however, all the twists just make the season more boring and predictable and overall, I just felt like the season just had too much happen where the edit focused too much on the bad parts of the season.

    I definitely agree with Rob more on Tommy. He played a great game but doesn’t make the most interesting TV. I can respect Chantele’s opinion of Lauren deserving the win more. I do think it’s a little extreme like with the “I’d need to see Lauren win if she came back” but I can understand the sentiment. Personally though my perspective on Lauren and Tommy is they both could play an amazing game on their own but together they do far better, I kinda think of Lauren as the Steven to Tommy’s JT. Both of them were valuable to controlling the game, but Tommy just turns on the charm and undermines his partner at the very end to take the win. I do appreciate both of their games though for making it to where they were, and I think anyone who positions themselves to win going into the last few eliminations deserve to have their games be appreciated (this is to say they know their path to victory and can make it).

The point of this game is that you can't know what to expect. That's why its so hard. You can't plan the whole thing out ahead of time. And as far as the big Rob and Sandra heads.. I love that sht lmao like ghost island as a concept was probably my favorite of all bc I love the corny gimmicks and the constant nostalgia like everything about that season was right up my alley lol I don't understand why everyone hated it.

      I feel like without Dan though stuff completely changes. Kellee makes it much farther, especially since she had two idols, and everyone’s endgame is different since they all planned on dragging dan to the end. Missy and Elizabeth are much more enjoyable characters when they don’t have the opportunity to use someone’s sexual harassment as a strategy. Hopefully this would affect the editing somehow in a positive way, like less virtue signaling at tribal to try and make up for the fact that a molester is on the show, and a more even edit for the power players.

    It's a shame this season was scarred by Dan because besides that it did have a lot of good players to root for. I think Elaine, Janet and Lauren all deserve to be brought back at some point to play again.

    I personally believe it’s not the absolute worst season of all time, I liked a lot of the characters and the gameplay. The premise and side missions players had to complete for advantages was an awesome idea. That being said, there is no doing damage control over the Dan Spilo situation. Things got too ugly too fast. I personally have it at 36 but I can see how people despise the season even more.

    The aggressions goat strategy so man people used and so few people caught onto really soured me on this season. I hated the way Karishma was treated. It would have been poetic to see her win. It really disgusted me that there was talk about Noura and Karishma not deserving to make it further than some others, but it was okay for Dan to make it further. If there is another Heroes vs Villians, put Jamal and Janet there, they area heroes. I wonder about how some of Tommy’s female students will think of him dragging Dan along, then screwing over Janet and Lauren? Too bade Janet, Lauren, and Elaine didn’t see the writing on the wall and band together. That would have been a great ending to the season.

    One thing I really hated about this season was that Jeff wasn’t there to start the show off and give the Survivors a proper marooning. Kellee was already speaking up about the inappropriate touching in the first episode before we even see Jeff!! It didn’t start the show off on the right foot. The Survivors in the season (except for the obvious) really got ripped off.

    The most unpopular seasons are ones where the winner could be seen a mile out... and IOI joins, RI, One World and Caramoan on that score too (somehow WAW avoids this rap because the cast was such high quality?). The ugly Dan stuff here as the sole reason to mark it last is probably a bit harsh (Brandon in Caramoan, Varner, Hatch on All Stars i would say on par). And the cringeworthy teachable moment overreaching was as offputting as the religious rubbish throughout South Pacific (saved by Sophie and maybe Ozzie). A lot of shared factors, kinda makes sense to have this at the bottom... was bad, but not orders of magnitude worse than 3-4 other seasons mentioned above?

    I get that you kind of have to rank this season last because of what happened but objectively it’s not that bad of a season at all. Wasn’t too psyched about the Tommy win but I’m never very satisfied with the winner anyways because I root for the underdogs😂😭

    Imo, with one obvious MAJOR exception, this is one of my top 5 newbie casts of all time easily. I absolutely loved the women this season, and if Dan wasn’t on the cast, I could see this being in the top half of the seasons. All that being did... it does have Dan, and he absolutely ruins the season.

    They should’ve gone the Drag Race route of editing Dan out of the season. Don’t give him screentime, don’t give him confessionals, don’t let him speak at tribal. Make him a non-factor in the actual aired show.
    I mean, they should’ve ejected him right away regardless but if that wasn’t in the cards (which makes no sense, the dude literally broke the law and violated multiple women on your show, it shouldn’t even be up for debate what to do in that situation), then the next best thing is to try to salvage the rest of the season.

    I came up with a very fun way to make the idol nullifier twist work. If day one for both tribes they had a blindfolded immunity challenge where everyone is holding a rock and if they are the first to open their hand and reveal the rock they will have the idol nullifier put into their bag but also if 3 people reveal their rock on the tribe their tribe gets nothing, if 2 you get flint, 1 you get fishing gear, and if you reveal none your tribe is immune for the tribal council if both tribes reveal there is a double tribal if no one reveals no one is voted for an extra round. Either way the idol nullifier becomes something you need to keep secret as if you have if you have betrayed your tribe and will absolutely lose respect, but at the same time it gives you an advantage in the game, and even better everyone in the game know exactly how many nullifiers will be in play for the entire season.
    I think this as a 1 time twist would be very entertaining and lead to so very good strategy.

    I'm not surprised this came in last and it's understandable, but if I'm thinking about how good some of those episodes were, there's no way I would ever put it behind some of the older more boring seasons or like a One World that others have mentioned. I think I had it around 30, although there are some seasons I have not watched.

    Can we see the average rankings? Like IOI is on average place 39.75?
    Wait. You never said if the audience ranked Tommy's win high or low. I listened to this part like 3x for this.

    44:38 i mean.. would this show really be entertaining if everything just worked out for everyone? Never knowing when a swap is coming is part of what makes this game difficult. Between swaps, random twists, advantages/idols.. no one can really set out a full plan and enact it. Your plan has to change constantly. And sometimes those swaps completely save a player who was screwed for some other reason lol sometimes the swaps can be beneficial. I guess people just like to btch about it when it's their favorite who gets screwed..
