I find it funny how some of the worst rated seasons (which i agree with) have the most interesting secrets videos. Often times i think they’re so chaotic or i forget about them in my mind so its nice to see deep dives into them
The attack zone rules should have stipulated that once you set foot in the zone, you are ELLIGIBLE to be hit, rather than insist you be in the zone before initiating a hit.
This was my first season! I think having this as my introduction to survivor made me appreciate the best seasons even more lol (jk, I genuinely still like this season!)
I'm in the minority of people who think this was actually a pretty good season and that Brian is one of the most dominating players ever to play. Thanks for uploading some excellent Thailand content!
The thing I will never be able to unsee from this horrible season is when Clay was drooling over Brian’s family video from his wife while she was doing a mock strip tease. It was the very big cringe cherry on a big ole cringe cupcake.
I know a lot of people hate this season, but it made me laugh so much with all the crazy shit that went on, I just can't bring myself to hate it. Like John playing that prank with the fake waterhole which ultimately made him the first one voted out, Gandia's giant screaming breakdown, Clay's "bye bye Denver diva" vote which confused Jeff and then had to tell him enough with the nicknames, Robb grabbing Clay by the throat and then doing his silly whiny imitation of him, Jeff scolding everyone while having to sound like a broken record, and nobody writing Robb's name with two b's when he got voted out. The madness brought me a whole lot of laughter when it first aired.
Top tier season for me. Don't get me wrong, I understand why it is disliked, but I just find it so fascinating. Like, this cast would end the show in the modern sanitized, polished Survivor form. Many of them are horrible people, and even those who aren't, such as Shii-Ann who is a delight and I'd love to see for a third time, don't exactly get the fallen hero edit. But being in the "social experiment" era of Survivor, the theme of the season (as a Vanuatu/Amazon was battle of the sexes, for example) was basically "unlikable people" WHICH IS GREAT TV! It's not a bunch of manufactured fighting though, it's ultimately a group of 8-10 people who are just sick of eachother. Relating it to modern Survivor, I'd argue Heidik is the most similar early Survivor winner to the modern player, but instead of being some game-bot, he's legitimately a sociopath. Finally, and most importantly, Robb, Shii-Ann, Jan, Helen, Clay, Ghandia, Ted, etc. were all just great, interesting characters in their own right. Just embrace the unlikability and trust the product. The ending becomes disappointing, because either of the two getting a million dollars is just an indictment on humanity, but the road leading up to it is excelling in my opinion.
heres a hot take thailand was my first season if im not mistaken i only saw a few eps of it bc i was a kid and didnt know what exactly survivor was but i fell in love then i watched pearl islands and i was hoooooked unlike that fish on Ruppers hook when he was the reward for that other international version
Omg I forgot about all those weird early 2000s reality dating shows lmao Next, Parental Control, Room Raiders.. I watched all of them lol embarrassing as it is. My sisters and I would basically just make fun of those ones, but we loved the VH1 shows like Flavor of Love with Flava Flav and I Love New York and whatever the Brett Michaels one was called I forget now.. damn I miss being like 14 sometimes. Crazy how different things were only 20 years ago.
20:00 Idk if I am seeing this wrong but…. The cohost in red - She looks like she is really very tired of these “Asians” . Like “wtf I understand these woman less and less, more and more !” She seems like she never quite understood or got along with the purple cohost… if not that she secretly despised, hated, or had some type of complex about her ! Then when you combine the two together she is like … : “I knew she was a weirdo … but are all of them weirdos together !?” Admittedly I know next to nothing about survivor & haven’t even watched a single episodes worth of time after combining every single time I saw it on tv…. Honestly I have watched more UA-cam videos based on survivor then I have watched survivor itself …. ( isn’t that strange ? Like there is so many things I have never ever had an interest in… like EVER, & for some reason I watch videos about them on UA-cam .., that is so odd !!! I imagine many people do the same with random stuff they never,and would never watch normally… but for some reason we watch UA-cam videos on them …. *DOWNRIGHT STRANGE & ODD !¡! ¡!¡ !¡!* Oh yea… I said all that to say : for all the survivor I have watched … I have managed to watch even less this show they are being interviewed on ! I mean at least survivor I watched a couple commercials worth of footage… I don’t even know wtf this show is they are being interviewed on ! So I could be speaking nonsense about the relationship between the cohosts ! However : One thing I noticed that seems to be a pattern in life is this : Black women understand, tolerate, and can get along with white women…. And Mexican women… But for some reason they just *Can NOT Stand* Asian females ! 9 times out of 10 Asian Females & Black Females Are Like Fire & Ice. There is some kind of observable dislike or tension between them !
How did they find the worst people possible to cast for this season? I still kinda like it, but I like it for how dark and dreary it is. A documentary about a bunch of terrible people living in a cave
Honestly this season and Fiji are better seasons by far than Redemption Island, South Pacific, One World, San Juan Del Sur, Worlds Apart, Kaôh Rōng, Ghost Island, Edge of Extinction, Island of the Idols and Season 41. In fact Season 41 and beyond I stopped watching it because it became too politically correct for me. But I still prefer Survivor Thailand and Survivor Fiji over the ones I mentioned. IJS
No way. I can maybe understand a few of those, but majority of the seasons you named are much stronger than this season. Thailand and Fiji are literally some of the worst seasons ever. Especially disagree with Koah Rong which was actually a very good season.
Don't know if she fabricates it or not. But I honestly don't think it's such a big deal. First of all she was being very2 flirtatious to him, both of them did. Secondly, if she felt so uncomfortable why can't she just push him off and say no or sleep next to someone else. Third, I don't get what's the big deal. My husband told me he was on a budget trip with his buddy when he was young and they booked a one bed hotel. This dude misses his girlfriend a lot and then when my husband was asleep suddenly he felt a hand wrapping around his stomach. My husband woke his buddy up and he was half awake and thought he was cuddling his gf. Lol. Stuff like that happens. Ghandia should just move on with it. She was trying to make them and the production to eliminate him which to me doesn't put a good light on her character.
Here is every secrets video I have made so far - ua-cam.com/play/PL-J4ldj2BdE2McwzPjDDJAuBDHZriyYOG.html
Blinds are those who can't appreciate Shi Ann. Shi Ann was the moment, surrounded and ganged up by mediocres.
“I mean, the guys are HOT”
*zooms in on clay*

One World proves this is true too. That one drops tomorrow!
@@OnceUponAnIsland I believe One World is the last season excluding 43 to not be on youtube.
"I wish there was something new survivor related to watch. Well, I guess I'll do the dishes"
(Comes back in hour later)
" Oh my gosh a new video!"
my day just got better
Nice to hear your having a great day Xulric
Great video! Thanks for uploading! But poor Tanya :(
The attack zone rules should have stipulated that once you set foot in the zone, you are ELLIGIBLE to be hit, rather than insist you be in the zone before initiating a hit.
Shii Ann is my alltime fav player!
You're awesome for making these secret videos. I watch them all.
"Rob's luxury item was a skateboard. A SKATEBOARD." I like the extra emphasis just in case we missed how stupid this is lmao
I’m surprised I like Brian better after watching secrets than I ever liked him on the show lol 😂
This was my first season! I think having this as my introduction to survivor made me appreciate the best seasons even more lol (jk, I genuinely still like this season!)
About number 25, did Survivor use to air on Thursday as opposed to Wednesday?
Yes, moved to wednesdays with Nicaragua
Juile Chen talking about Survivor is so odd!
I swear the old promos remind me more of what the world used to be like than the actual show lmao
Just picked up a bag of chips before I got this notifications, coincidence.. I think not!🤔😅
Lol, the term GOAT keeps confusing me when used in this context because in Black America, GOAT is slang for Greatest Of All Time 🐐
The spin on some of those hype videos 😮. They knew we wanted the drama.
I'm in the minority of people who think this was actually a pretty good season and that Brian is one of the most dominating players ever to play. Thanks for uploading some excellent Thailand content!
It was a really good season. I don't know why people hate it so much.
@@secrets.295 As someone who likes Thailand, I can think of a few reasons why people dislike it, some I think are valid, some I don't.
I agree. Survivor Thailand was a good season. Especially if you compare it to the Australian Outback. That was the most boring season of all.
Here is the big secret, John Raymond taped a child’s mouth😢
ALSO: Ken was on 'Cash Cab'.
The thing I will never be able to unsee from this horrible season is when Clay was drooling over Brian’s family video from his wife while she was doing a mock strip tease. It was the very big cringe cherry on a big ole cringe cupcake.

Thailand had the best final five of any season. No debate!
heres a hot take thailand was my first season if im not mistaken i only saw a few eps of it bc i was a kid and didnt know what exactly survivor was but i fell in love
then i watched pearl islands and i was hoooooked unlike that fish on Ruppers hook when he was the reward for that other international version
I can tell you one thing that's not a secret - this was the first season I remember Probst openly hating the cast he was stuck with.
Wtf was up with the CBS promoters for this season?!
Why didn’t you bring up Ghadia said in an interview that she did exaggerate the incident?
This season might have fared better if the tribes were split by gender.
Omg I forgot about all those weird early 2000s reality dating shows lmao Next, Parental Control, Room Raiders.. I watched all of them lol embarrassing as it is. My sisters and I would basically just make fun of those ones, but we loved the VH1 shows like Flavor of Love with Flava Flav and I Love New York and whatever the Brett Michaels one was called I forget now.. damn I miss being like 14 sometimes.

Asian Females & Black Females Are Like Fire & Ice.
There is some kind of observable dislike or tension between them !
Underrated season: burning hot take
Melting hot take
Supernova level hot take
What a shame that they took a great location and screwed it up with a terrible cast.
here’s a secret….Thailand has the most unlikable cast in the history of Survivor
Redemption Island's newbies are the worst. I can name the Thailand ones at at least.
@Queen Lynn I rather have a hard to remember cast than an unlikable one.
@@Nate9-9 A season that makes you feel any emotion is easier than a season where makes you feel indifference, the case of RI.
Honestly, I like Shii-Ann
@@mirillis6083 she's basically the only person who is likeable though
Eh, I think I’m good with watching these a month after they’re filmed
I was wondering if any of these would make the season just a little more likable. They didn't.
How did they find the worst people possible to cast for this season? I still kinda like it, but I like it for how dark and dreary it is. A documentary about a bunch of terrible people living in a cave

Could've sworn there was an interview where Gandia straight admitted she fabricated the story for TV.
Don't know if she fabricates it or not. But I honestly don't think it's such a big deal. First of all she was being very2 flirtatious to him, both of them did. Secondly, if she felt so uncomfortable why can't she just push him off and say no or sleep next to someone else. Third, I don't get what's the big deal.

easily my least favorite season to this day
i hope ghandia got her justice tbh that wasnt gonna fly today and it wasnt ok like no matter the time period
Justice for what? She literally admitted she fabricated the majority of her story for TV.
jan/jen is a queen yall wont tell me otherwise
they way i had a crush on Ken and Tanya as a kid
