Australian Survivor Or Survivor US - Which Is Better?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лип 2024
- A lot of debate has occurred in the community recently about which version of Survivor is better? Is it the old reliable Survivor US or the rapidly improving Australian Survivor? In spite of both shows being recognisably Survivor and following the same general structure, something that inspired me to make this video is the fact that…they have completely different philosophies. Considering this is one of the very few occasions where both seasons are airing at the same time I said screw it, now is the time to make this video! Consequently I’m going to be listing the positives and negatives of each franchise and then ultimately stating which version I think is superior…

"Survivor" is a popular reality television show that has been captivating audiences around the world for many years. The show's concept revolves around a group of contestants, often around 16 to 20 individuals, who are marooned in a remote and challenging location, such as an island, jungle, or desert. These contestants are usually divided into two or more tribes at the beginning of the game.
The primary goal of the show is for contestants to outwit, outplay, and outlast their fellow competitors in order to win a cash prize and the title of "Sole Survivor." The show is known for its compelling characters, dramatic twists, and strategic gameplay. Contestants often face physical hardships, interpersonal conflicts, and moral dilemmas as they navigate the challenges of the game. "Survivor" has a loyal fan base and has spawned numerous seasons, each set in a different location with its own unique challenges. It has become a cultural phenomenon and a cornerstone of the reality TV genre. The host is known as Jeff Probst and is also the lead director.

Now? Australian easily in the past few years.
I happily disagree
It's not even close imo. Australian has been superior in every way.
@lallana2882 heroes vs villains and titans vs rebels were pretty good, but so were US seasons 44 and 45 :/.
@@lallana2882 true
@@connorsheppard4555were they tho. I like 45 a lot but I still think it’s overall less memorable than HvV and tvr and 44 to me has always been super boring and I think on re watch you can really see it
AU Survivor has slayed the US version since post-covid. Editing can be rough at times given the inconsistent distribution of shown confessionals, but it also packs a punch for very memorable contestants. I also think JLP is an excellent host that consistently steps up his game in terms of charisma and slick humor.
JLP has definitely improved with each season and provides a really unique host from a characteristic/insight perspective!
Aside from the dip in quality with blood vs water, AU has been stronger pretty consistently since it started up again in 2016
They aren’t lazy, they take risks, they’re creative, they trust their cast and audience more regularly. The only thing US does better is balanced editing of all the contestants, but that’s it
Idk about the lazy part. This isn't big brother us
@@lucastoft4948 it’s not possible to be in the same universe of laziness as BBUS
I can understand why some contestants are more so "background characters" in AU due to 24 person casts and it catering more towards the casual fanbase but should have given contestants like Raymond, Kitty and Rhianna more screentime. Similar to you however that really is my only *main* flaw.
If it wasn't for AU survivor, I'd be an extreme casual fan that wouldn't even care enough about survivor to watch youtube videos about it. US laid the foundation but AU keeps me going.
🔥
the best comment i have seen on this!
Aww well thanks for checking me out on youtube! Having Titans vs Rebels and Survivor 46 airing together definitely allowed for people from the different communities to see both versions of the show together.
Actually Jonathan LaPaglia is such a great host I was afraid that we're going to lose him to America.
You know the Australian Survivor is so good when the locals watch the show.
You're kidding right ? Lapaglia is unwatchable!
I guess you'll be putting your hand up for Dr Chris, Beau Ryan or happy chappy Robert Irwin when the job next comes up
You know it's good when even internationals watch the show!
I love Survivor US but right now Australian Survivor is way much better in terms of CAST, editing, twists, reward and number of quality episodes. Maybe US can consider 47-day format? 26 days is kind of meh.
Kudos to Australian Survivor - Titans Vs Rebel! Great season! Also excellent hosting Sir JLP!
Titans vs Rebels completely blew me away. I was worried they wouldn't be able to top Heroes vs Villains but they definitely proved me wrong! And they proved they could make a very solid season with just newbies.
I like both. However, Australia Survivor is definitely more exciting to watch.
I like that Au Survivor is more of a spectacle. Even regarding the challenges.
Nowadays it's the Australian Survivor, and it's not even close!
I agree!
Our boy is now getting sponsored by Survivor.
He is moving up in the world!
Ayee thanks dude! And a massive thanks to Survivor Castaway Island!
Australian Survivor overtook american as thé best version of Survivor in my opinion ,US Survivor just not it post 40th season
Yeah if we're talking as a whole US isn't touched but modern day? Au clears
I think something Australian Survivor does well is encapsulating the "teens and twenties" of Survivor that a lot of Survivor fans look at with great memories. There's themes and considering it's 24 episodes it's more grounded (with only one really bad twist this season which is weirdly an improvement on modern Survivor seasons)
I always lose interest in the new US survivor era, most of the time I don't even check who won. Australian survivor on the other hand, I'm just as invested and entertained from beginning to end.
That's amazing to hear dude! Thanks for checking out the content aha
Only thing I would argue is worse in Australian survivor is the edit, but I prefer the twists, returnees, advantages, casts and length of the Australian seasons, although I might be biased because I’m Australian and have only watched the last 5 US seasons. The Australian edit is just frustrating because it’s the thing that holds the seasons back from being amazing, and it doesn’t seem to be getting better
The issue is by about Week 1 are only really 6-8 legitimate winner contenders which is a bit worrying considering the cast size is 24. But apart from that it is really good!
I'm a European fan of Survivor and have been watching it since I was a teen, when it first started. For me I'd say Australian Survivor is better now, partly because the format is better than what US Survivor is doing now and partly because it's lacking the US type of flashiness, I can't really explain it but it's this American entertainment thing. I've liked plenty of players in the new US Survivor era, I actually like that the cast now is more diverse in every way, that there's fewer of those typical big macho model looking guys, typical fit, cool, hollywood actress looking girls, I like that there's all kinds of quirky personalities, people of all types, with stand out personalities(be it in a good or annoying way). But it's become flashier, glossier, I don't like the going on a journey thing, I don't like all the beware advantages and I think the shortened format takes a lot away, it's different when both the audience and the contestants know it's a 40+ day journey to the end vs a 27 day one.
By contrast, Australian Survivor feels more gritty, more difficult on the survival aspect, there's more players and to get to the end stages you have to last a long time and more eliminations. Another thing is I feel like there's more elaborate strategising and some players who seem to really have this fascinating ability to read situations and people, to think strategically like it was a chess game almost and thrive in chaos. Challenges are often harder too, more rewards and it feels like the reward is more special when the game goes on for so much longer, they usually nail the extra twists like having a couple of non eliminations at the right time or the tribal where they have a challenge to see who gets the right to vote. I'm starting to feel the same about The Amazing Race AU but they're more equal to me
A great overall analysis thank you! Great to see another European fan also!
You've inspired me, I need to see Survivor International Invasion! US vs Australia, best of the best from each series. I'll definitely be doing a video putting a cast together for that dream season. I wish Survivor South Africa stuck around so we could have 3 tribes as they had some really fun players as well.
Great video mate! I feel that due to the length of Australian Survivor, it can be really hit or miss. It really depends on the cast, and who in the cast makes it far, because in Australian Survivor you'll be spending a huge amount of time with them, due to so many episodes.
It means that Australian Survivor can be brutal to get through if there aren't really interesting people who stick around, which sometimes there isn't. Rebels vs Titans got lucky that the more interesting players took over the game early on both tribes and the less interesting players (the couples alliance on the original rebels except for Alex of course, and Frankie, Jess and Nathan on the Titans) went home early.
So this season down here is an absolute marathon to watch, like any season of Aussie Survivor, but the cast is making it so much fun! It really is depending on the cast and who from the cast makes it far into the game.
American survivor, due to it's shorter run time is more consistent, but most of my favourite Survivor players of the last decade are Australian players, because we get to spend more time getting to know them and falling in love with them.
Ive actually done one on the channel previously if you want to check it out ahah it could definitely do with some changes though!
Oh how cool, I'm going to watch it now :)@@BanditSurvivorContent
@@survivorrankings Ayeeee! ❤
Idk if this is a hot take or not but i actually prefer how au survivor edits their contestants. I mean, imo it makes for better tv. Imagine if we got less feras or kirby just to make room for others who were either less important or less entertaining? Plus i like that we get a satisfying winner at the end. Erika was a great winner with a shit edit.. for what?
Do you think Feras still can win? I think He Is doomed unless He wins thé last challange, Mark looks like a pretty clear winner unfortunately
@@freezi1956 My heart says that Feras is gonna win but my head not. Also Mark had a consistent edit through
the whole season... and Feras is really bad when it comes down to immunity challenges...
I completely agree. On balance the pro’s significantly outweighs the cons. Is it better to have two tribes with more contestants over a longer period? Yes. Then the natural consequence is a less balanced confessional for all contestants instead focussing on ‘the main characters’ of each episode.
@@77TwiNe77 yes He really did that!!
@@freezi1956Well he won, first time in AU Survivor where a main character won the whole show
I might just be stupid but I feel like the advantages in US survivor are too complicated and confusing to keep up with for me
The big thing is a lot of them don't work well *together* eg. the confusion about the extra vote and the vote nullifier in Survivor 44. Or the steal a vote alongside losing your vote on journeys.
BTW 3 tribes doesn't actually give you no where to hide, if you're tribe is bad at challenges sure, but in multiple seasons we've seen multiple tribes just coast to merge almost entirely intact
3 tribes makes Tribal way to small to start the season off. I want to see more people having input/making moves and being involved in the early tribals. Its even worse when one player loses a vote to a beware advantage. You know only 4 or 5 people are voting. Its boring imo
That's a good point. Production definitely feel (as evidenced by their On Fire Podcast) that it leaves nowhere to hide but nowadays someone can be on winning tribes and win the individual immunity at the split tribal twist and make it to Final 10.
I would love to see Australia vs U.S. Survivor.
George, Simon, Mark, Feras, Shonee, Hayley, Liz, and/or Kirby would be fun to see how they'd play in America.
Don’t forget David.
I don't know if Survivor US would do it but it would be a great theme to do on Survivor AU!
Survivor AU is just better nowadays, like the US one just bores me, while everyone seems more diverse its actually quite the opposite since they all think, talk and act the same and have the same jobs
Post 40 vs modern AU, AU Stomps.
Pre 40 vs AU overall tough to decide.
Interesting insight! Thanks for the comment my friend!
Atm you have to say Australian Survivor has the upper hand. Survivor US has the overall legacy of starting it all without that there would be no AU Survivor. But on current form I have to give it to Australia.
Ayeee TNT! Is this Chris writing this comment? Aha. I agree with you - I just get excited for AU survivor more than Survivor US as of recent which is impressive considering there's 3 episodes to watch per week (which could increase burn out theoretically).
@@BanditSurvivorContent Chris on this end yes ;)
@@BanditSurvivorContent Also agree about the burn out factor shows how well they are doing to keep us engaged.
I really enjoyed AUS the first several years - now, I think production rigs it for their favorites. It seems very odd to me, how people went almost all season without targeting Feras, David(7) and George(8 and 10). Some of the advantages and "Mock vote twist" that George received seemed uncanny.
Some examples:
-in s8 ep.1: George gets an advantage to save himself and 5 ADDITIONAL contestants in TC, is ridiculously over-powered. He would likely be the first boot otherwise.
-in S8, Cara and George each save themselves with an HII, Cara also gets the "The tribe voted you out, but you'll just joined the opposite tribe ahead of the merge" twists, which really helped gain them the numbers over the Brains alliance.
-George skips the S10 E1 TC due to medical
-in the survivor auction on 10.09, George easily wins the bid for a lunch retreat, where a hidden immunity idol is plainly laying on the table.
Finally someone else has realised this! George was obviously helped out a bunch by the producers. He would have been booted first in S8 if they didn’t give him a very overpowered advantage. Paul deserved a better chance.
He still has the best gameplay I’ve ever seen on any survivor season.
I do think some of the twists are pre-decided like the Heroes vs Villains and Titans vs Rebels challenges at tribal due to the episode slots not having reward challenges. Some of the idols hidden in Brains vs Brawn was straight up bad though lol
South African here. I used to watch Survivor a lot as a kid and the ones that obviously stood out to me was Survivor Heroes vs Villians or any season that had Sandra, Boston Rob, Pavarti and Russell. But as I grew older, I fell out of it. I only recently got back to watching it last year with Survivor 44 and 45, and I loved them. But I liked 45 a lot more than 44 because the Tika Three stooges were the stars of the show and made it a lot more entertaining than the rest of the cast members, challenges or any twists and advantages that were there. 45 was nicely balanced.
I then got bit by the Survivor bug and wanted to watch some more, and realized that Survivor Aus was currently playing. I underestimated it at first and thought "This Survivor has nothing on US Survivor!" Boy, was I so wrong, and I've never been happier to be wrong 😂! The difference in cinematography, game play, challenges, alliances, tribal councils, blindsideds etc, to the American one are worlds apart! I never thought that Aus Survivor got me so hooked that I'd immediately watch exit interviews , jury villa confessionals and super fan Zoom videos on UA-cam after watching an episode. It even got me thinking should I apply to be in Aus Survivor since Survivor SA isn't there anymore. I'm now an absolute fan of Survivor Australia and I'm going to binge watch the previous ones before Titans vs Rebels.
Ps: I've never watched Survivor South Africa and I'm very sad that it's not there anymore , and even if I could apply for it, I couldn't because I was still in high school while it was running 😭. Im 24 now , but I'm curious to those who have seen most, if not all, is it any good and does it measure up to the American and Australian version?
Watch the south african one! Last 4 seasons were great
Love seeing more South Africans in the fan community. I agree with the other comment here you need to watch Survivor South Africa it had some really solid seasons in recent times. Also I still hold hope that it will return.
I think a lot of people are apprehensive about checking out international versions of Survivor (I knew I was when I was hearing about it a few years ago) but I really enjoy the international seasons and think they are a great addition to the franchise!
Who were the contestants in their fifties in Titans vs Rebels?
Garrick, Kellie and Caroline
The United States Survivor and Australian Survivor remind me of a teacher and a student. The American survivor is the teacher who showed how it’s done, but has recently gotten old and is not producing such a great performance. Australian Survivor, meanwhile is the eager student that learnt quickly and improved on an already amazing product
A great analogy! Thanks for the insight Andrew!
The thing with confessionals in Australian survivor is that it’s not the know all end all in Au survivor we have longer tribal councils mat chat ETC even without many confessionals we still get to know the players pretty well
wow great video! I do have some things I want to add on as an aussie, but I think I'll just stick to one interesting cultural difference about Australia people may not know:
6:58 I just found it hilarious how your comparison to blue collar jobs was Lachie the carpenter. In Australia, tradies (electricians, carpenters, plumbers etc) are actually part of Australia's upper class. I know what you were trying to do was show how US survivor has more upper-class jobs, while Aus has more representation down to lower class (since in the US tradies are considered lower class), but what you actually did was a middle-upper class job (clinical psychologist) compared to an aussie middle-upper class job (tradie).
Australia also has much to do in terms of occupational representation as well- or does it? It's interesting how Aus seems to value more of its occupations, such as fast food, healthcare and tradie workers, and so representation between different fields and classes doesn't seem as important since there's a cultural respect and egalitarianism between them all (except our politicans, our politicans are actualy devils spawn). Compared to the US, where classism and difference between jobs has a lot more negative connotations and stereotypes
I actually thought it was a good comparison. I remember reading somewhere Simon quit his job to become a Carpenter on minimum wage just so he could be in charge of his own life. Although specific detail surrounding Simon's circumstance should have been brought up in the video (although I can understand if Bandit didn't want to bring that up in public in a video)
Thanks for your kind words! I do find it interesting that AU Survivor shows off a lot of jobs like retail ect. more "normal" jobs than the specialised jobs Survivor US tends to go for.
after getting more and more dissapointed with new era us survivor, I started watching titans v rebels after the first 2 46 season episodes. I binged it through in a matter of days, I loved it so much, it was so much more diverse and chaotic, way less kumbaja, and two big tribes have so much more chances for interior drama. Titans v rebels had constant voote changes and like 4 long lasting rivalies. US could never nowadays. Only 2 problem I really have with australia, is the editing really shafting many players a lot and the challenges, especially post merge tend to be really favoring a certain type of competitor and are pretty much all physical, so many players just never stand a chance to win immunity, because they are so damn brutal. They are all very unique and cool t look at, but often need a similar skill set.
Agree for the most part. Good you did not discuss about hosting because that is a whole other topic lol.
JLP is unwatchable!!
@jimmyriddle5246 nah, JLP is better than probst because JLP sticks to his lane and doesn't try to wear producer hats and host hats at the same time like jeff who is suffering main character syndrome.
@@twc621 that may be true, but he is banal and boring and his inability to direct the course of discussion at tribal councils is unbelievably frustrating
Loved this video! I have to sub now ♥️
The latest Survivor AU was right up there amongst the very best I've watched.
I really enjoyed it definitely one of my favorite seasons of all time
@@BanditSurvivorContent Totally agree.
I really like AU Survivor a lot!
I prefer oz survivor because the winner has to stay in the wilderness for 47 days.
I’m someone who really enjoys both versions alot and invests a lot of time and energy to both Australian and American Survivor. Contrary to popular opinion, I love both of them, and I really dislike that most people who like AUS just use it as an excuse to bash the US version even more.
I think the main thing I notice about US vs AUS is the intent/level of passion of the producers. The US version producers see the show as their passion. You can feel with every article, every Jeff podcast, and interview that Jeff and his team love Survivor with all their being, and they put pure passion and effort into every second of the show.
The Australian producers are more generic TV producers who are mostly concerned with getting ratings and having shocking moments. It’s a job rather than a passion to them. Feels more corporate.
The Australian version is more entertaining in a vacuum, but it doesn’t have a deeper meaning like the US show does. AUS primarily presents as a strategic game of idols, blindsides and big brute challenges, which is more entertaining, but it’s not art. We don’t get to know much of the players outside of the game. I would not call it trashy, but it’s more popcorn entertainment. Looking at the promos, it’s definitely a lot more sensationalist.
The US version on the other hand presents itself as a journey of self discovery set inside of a complex strategy game. It’s a lighter vibe, everyone is nice for the most part and it focuses a lot on inner strength and personal growth. It’s less entertaining in a bubble but it’s more emotionally powerful on the whole and it feels like the proceed really want to achieve a deeper meaning about humanity.
Just listen to the music of both versions to get an idea of what I mean
This isn’t for or against either version, both are awesome shows, just an observation.
USA survivor upto & including 40 but Survivor Australia seems to always constantly be good.
Also the fact Prosbt said he was getting rid of villians also limits quality also to much diversity can be a bad thing aswell
100 million% Australian Survivor!
No contest. Aussie rules
Australia is the best I love it twist even know it they had Australia, Survivor until couple years ago when I got a VPN I was in heaven just like American MasterChef Australia MasterChef is the bomb they do so much cool shit
99% Australian Survivor. Just wish that Aussie Survivor has reunion show like the US.
Australian Survivor now is what US Survivor used to be.
US Survivor has gone woke. It is also weird editing as it just slides into the episode with the awesome Survivor sound track nowhere to be heard. I like nostalgia, the Aussie version keeps it more old school and the host is buff and looks like he lives on the Island or something as well a being pretty funny. :)
Australian by a long shot at this point.
Australian Survivor for me.
The last few years, Australian has been a billion light years ahead. Especially since 41 where US lost the plot..
can anyone help me find a place to watch australian survivor from the us without a vpn
shvideos
In my opinion, Australian Survivor has a combination of music and cinematography equal to a major motion theatrical release, whereas the US version is equal to staring at a bland wall by comparison. AU is also longer, so you get ALL the strategy and fun, and the people are so much more interesting making for some Excellent dynamics that'll keep you engaged from start to Long after finish. Once you watch at least 3 seasons of AU, it's nearly impossible to bear the blandness of the US version.
You decided to write an entire hate comment just because of some music?
@@byronmayes5904 Hate comment? If you mean hate as in my indifference towards the US version by comparison I'm slightly ok with that (as I stand by the music/cinematography being one of the many factors that makes AU superbly better), but if you mean towards the video or creator please let me know (as that was definitely not my intent), so if it's the latter, please feel free to give some advice on a better way to write this comment, and I'll gladly replace it if you think I should. Thanks so much!
@@JamesRoss2214 I now understand you probably didn't intend for this to be a hate comment. I feel the creator put a lot of effort into this video and yet you open saying they did not do a good job at explaining the differences. Just because he missed the music part?
I do absolutely agree Survivor US (compared to Survivor AU) is very bland however.
@@byronmayes5904 Thank you for bringing that to my attention! I will rework my feelings into a comment that doesn't insult the work or effort that the creator put into the video and delete this misleading one. Thanks again!
@@byronmayes5904 Edited it! Is it free of any tones that could be strewn as targeting the video or creator? (I'm a bit socially inept so I very much appreciate your feedback 😂)
Having watched all US Survivor and all AU Survivor series, I would say the quality of AU contestants were sub-standard and most of them were not competitive and more interested in doing a Big Brother show rather than Survivor.
In the latest season, the quality had improved with people like Feras, Mark and Kirby.
AU producers need to get away from making Survivor into a Big Brother show and the before merge challenges into another AFL match.
US producers are good at making creative uses of Immunity Idols which usually beings a lot more challenges into the game, but in the latest season, AU had introduced a hilarious and most challenging idol play.
Australian Survivor!!
i have watched all Survivor 1-46 and have watched all Australian Survivor 1-11. there is no comparison. Australian Survivor is the best. I like some US seasons but still Survivor AU are far superior. the editing team are just so good. Majority of the comments can really tell you that US survivor has gone down. and Australian Survivor rules.
Australian survivor is longer now 48 days and 24 episodes USA survivor has reduced length of series as New Zealand tv does not show USA survivor can't say which is better as only see Australia version
Only way to see USA survivor in New Zealand is by short recaps on y tube about 20 mins a series use to watch every season of series in Australia but once they went to Fiji every season show got repetitive
Nothing will ever beat early survivor like the first 20 seasons. But now aussie survivor is head and soulders over the new us survivor. After season 40 us survivor is almost hard to watch.
For 5 seasons, off course Aussie the best
I would have always said US…..until US felt the need to completely remake the game from 41 and AUS has had 2 brilliant seasons in a row.
Is survivor Australia still 39 days?
Australian is better for sure.. The new survivor US reserved culture where Erika's game is considered optimal does not encourage fluid gameplay or crazy moves.. Titans vs Rebels is the best survivor season I've seen in years.
In recent years, Australian survivor by a mile. But it does still have its weaknesses. Both “King George” plots in S8 and S10 are infuriating. In S8 first tribal council, he gets an advantage to save him, and an additional 5 PEOPLE?? The AU Heroes VS Villains Final 5 is very disappointing. You have George and 4 of his pawns to follow him up. After Simon got eliminated, they last few episodes were a bit of a bore fest. Liz, Nina, Gerry, and don’t even get me started with Matt (the definition of floater) are boring as hell to watch. I much prefer where S11 is heading right now. I live in NZ so we Are a few episodes behind, but we are currently up to Final 8 and I LOVE IT! Seeing so many rivalries and so many risky plays is so fun to watch. It does have its weaknesses like Kirby and Feras eating up everyone’s screen time. But overall I think it’s been really great so far.
US survivor is more consistent and Australian survivor has way higher highs. I like both of them and they both have their positives and negatives
Australian survivor is WAY WAY BETTER to me...oh at that King george dude after the first one got moves that are crazy
drives me nuts that we cant watch it here it US without turning my friggin TV on its side thru the quantum realm thru peepholes on daily motion that has an ad every 5 minutes ...i wouldnt struggle that much to watch our survivor..Dang if someone in australia filmed all seasons on dvd...Ill buy that quick...ill even buy it on vcr tape..then look for a vcr..anyway im done stressing..
SEASON 46 CAST IS TRIGGERED!!
Sir, do you need some assistance? You appear to be stuck in 2016.
After Andy, Bandit is their next target
Did they tweet something about this video that I didn't see...?
This last 2 or 3 years I'm being more excited to watch Australian survivor. 45 was the best new era season by far. But. I still prefer Australian survivor. Even with the predictable boot order in the end game. because of the edit.
Australia…hands down!
Better cast in Australian Survivor by a mile but too easy to find an immunity idol
imo it goes from best to worst
Old Era US > Australian > New Era Us
Middle Era US = New Era Australian > Old Ear US > New Era US
@@ethanr0x also a valid take tbh. i’m just lumping US 1-40 as one era

Do a full season review for titans rebel's
Competition wise Australian is far more physical than US most of the AU players are huge this year most got voted out early but the Challenges were awesome US I think they are having auditions at Comic Con and Starbucks but they are more strategical, AU they all talk strategies 3 feet apart this season Raymond advantage of all Vote me out was entertaining but wow look even scripted. Advantage AU too is three times a Week.
The Australian survivor is so much better.
Australian Survivor is the best by far
Australian is way way way better.. Longer... More people.. Reward and seperate immunity challenges. Food auction.. There is no contest
Australian Survivor beats the U.S’s arse
Straya survivor for me
Australia is the best right now. They have better casting.
Au is way better us is good tho
Australian Survivor is the best. Jonathan is the best
👁 ❤️ 🇦🇺 🏝
I haven't enjoyed a post-covid season of Survivor yet. I could count on one hand the number of AU contestants I've actually enjoyed watching and who have had any kind of gameplay and the editing of AU survivor is TERRIBLE. US I haven't gotten into either but I think that's more due to the game changes than the casting. If US played like AU and AU cast like US, maybe I'd be having a good time. 🤷♂️
The contestants on the US version have been terrible the past few seasons. I tried watching this season but that guy who is crying all the time made it unwatchable. I may give it another shot once he is gone.
AU Survivor is much better than US version in the last 4-5 season. More interesting contestants with interesting characters vs lame characters in the US version, almost like they (the producers) are playing it too safe in order not to offend the US vievers with possible confrontations.
The new twists that the US Survivor tries to introduce in every new seson, are not exciting and are only a detrement to the original game. They should get back to basics...two tribes, more idols in play and most important, a better choice of contestants with large personalities. After all it is the contestants that make or brake a memorable season, something the US Survivor has not managed to do in the past seasons.
100000% Australian survivor
Australia is way better
australian survivor is easily the best
Here is the thing. Australian casting imo is better. It does need to get better in terms of racial diversity but it’s cast of characters is just so good
What? The 2024 season included a Nepalese, a Pacific Islander, an Indigenous Australian, an Arab, a Thai, a Russian & a South Sudanese
@@stereohype1 I thought Aileen was Chinese because her last name is Chong??
@@stereohype1 Yeah it did well. It needs to keep doing that CONSISTENTLY tho is what i’m saying
Australian survivor is the winner - it’s more vicious, rough and characters are easier to remember and are not sanitized like the Americans. JLP has out jeffed Jeff. I am up to date with Australian survivor ( Ferris) but am only on Season 44 US - so I have to come back to this video again. Jeff I think should replace himself cause he seems bored, spent and tired - I really hate saying this , also he allowed the fat lady to enter his space when he dropped the word ‘guys’ and worse of all- every business person knows the customer is always right and by saying he doesn’t care what people say not only proved he rubbed sanitizer all over himself it proved the start of his downfall, he would want to move over before the fat lady puts the mic down.
AU11 is miles ahead of US46, way less crying and more people playing the game.
Australian survivor is so much better
If ya only count US survivor before new era, it is! This new era full of hipsters and folks who cannot complete a sentence sucks
When Oz first came out, I preferred it for a few years. I loved the longer/extra episodes as I always felt 1 hour US Survivor a week (which is 42 mins run time), was rushed, BUT I haven't enjoyed Oz the last 3 or 4 seasons and often stop watching part way through. 3 episodes a week is overkill and I don't like the editing/themes that are essentially the same thing (Titans Vs Rebels is just Champions Vs Contenders). HvV was also so frustrating with "King George" dominating every episode, and teasing us that he might go in almost every preview for the next episode when we know full well he won't until very late. Also had a lot of dud players who were sheep. Oz also casts very similar people every season (footie players, ex pro athletes, really big guys etc). The casts aren't diverse enough for me. I haven't enjoyed an Oz season since All-Stars.
On the flip side, I love that US Survivor now has 90 min episodes (slightly over 1 hour run time) once a week (it's the perfect amount), but I'm not a fan of all the twists they throw in, especially players losing their votes, but all in all, I'd rather just watch 1 US episode per week than 3 Oz. That's one of the big drawbacks for me, I don't want to watch Survivor 3 nights a week (4 if you watch both versions since they overlap), it's too much to keep up with. I also wish Oz would air their annual season around June-August time, that way they'd not clash with US. They must know their viewers watch it as well.
Australian Survivor viewers do not watch US Survivor because American Survivor is so bad it is painful.
I don't see a problem in representation. But is this woke casting really diverse?
Define what you mean by "woke"?
Format: AU (I think 2x9 > 2x24 but US refuses to do it so)
Editing/Storytelling: US
Casting: AU
Gameplay: AU
Release Format: AU (3 episodes a week is amazing)
Rewatchability: US (Au is better when it's coming out but US is far better on a rewatch)
Challenges: US but it's close and I don't fault you if you think AU is better, just think US has better equity and variety than AU
Australian Survivor is way better than US Survivor. US has gone down the last few seasons.
What are you saying?!?! Survivore AU has 90% physical challenges. It's soooo monotonous and unfair
This video was overly critical of the US version and VERY (and I do mean VERY) forgiving of some crucial flaws of Australian Survivor. I have at least finished every US season of Survivor. I have given up on some seasons of Australian Survivor because of the poor editing and ludicrous twists. For example, the EOE twist in US Survivor was hammered endlessly but we're expected to just overlook that it's super common for players in the AU version to just get voted out and not leave the game or receive any penalty at all they move tribes. That's just one example, but you see the point I'm trying to illustrate. The US version is just held to a higher standard than the international version. But, with any objectivity, the US version is better. Higher caliber gameplay, better editing, less nonsensical twits in the game, extra.
Feel like Aussie survivor has some very obvious pros and cons. The challenges are great. The twists and non elimination episodes are very high and miss. But the biggest con is that the editing is even more lopsided. In a typical episode 2 people might get 10 confessionals each and 2 people might get 0. It’s like very obvious who are the players that matter, and some players are reduced to NPCs or just a pawn
US Survivor went too woke for me. I prefer only watching Australia Survivor
Australian survivor is way better now. American survivir is cheap and woke these days. Such a shame.
Survivor US sucks in comparison... in literally every way.
Us is a joke now corny not fun anymore .rapid joke show 5season a year a s2pid concept .u didnt even remember who won.and not deserving....
I don’t know this past season of Aussie Survivor was pretty underwhelming with a lot of really bad twists that I can’t chalk up to the larger episode tally, Charles was robbed and the weird safety without power that Valeria won at the merge were both very bizarre twists
Even the endgame suffers immensely, I don’t know half these players very well so I’m not that invested in them when they get blindsided, Winna, Jaden, and Kitty both got very small edits despite being some of the most influential votes of the season
Kitty was very visible despite getting purpled, same with Jaden, but yeah US clears in terms of editing, big part of that is 18 players is easier to edit than 24 players
Yeah Kitty was visible but I know actually nothing about her strategy, who she plans to go to the end with outside of Caroline
Jaden and Winna were apparently close enough for Jaden to join the rebels to take Eden out as revenge. This relationship was not highlighted so I wasn’t overly sure why Jaden chose to flip.
Rihanna took 7th place and I do not know her dynamic with ANYONE except Kirby.
Kirby particularly got an extremely large edit for a player that isn’t even in the last couple episodes, instead of hearing from her and Feras for the 10th time that episode wouldn’t it have been nice to know what Mark, Winna, Jaden, or Rihanna are thinking strategically.
2017 is still my favorite season because I feel like I really connected with the majority of the cast, everyone by the time of the merge was someone I had a good grasp on.
Seriously look at David(HvV) or Michelle(BvW), they both went further than half the cast and neither of them were ever given focus leading to their vote outs not having the same amount of impact on viewers
@XanderMatthews-nv9zf david was a important power player throughout the pre merge and we saw barely anything, AU editing is so bad lol
I have seen every episode of us survivor. The first 20 season great the new modern area SUCKS there graded-D- barely watchable!!!
I have seen six seasons of Australian Survivor hands-down 10 times better. better challenges better players none of this ethnic diversity. I’m gay. You’re lesbian none of that nonsense in Australian Survivor challenge are better. Cast is better 10 times better than Survivor. Hands down A+++++ USA Survivor can take notes from Australian Survivor!!! at one time US survivor was good now it is not!!!!!
Jeff Probst needs to retire. Periodt.
