I had a good feeling about Maryanne watching the premiere... I saw her as the winner when she made it past the pre-merge. I liked Maryanne's edit, she was shown as someone who is likable, but could be annoying in the beginning, but by the time the merge came around, I saw her as a potential winner... I am glad she won, but that is just my opinion.
i love how the only time Maryanne is shown as a villain is when ppl get annoyed with her enormous amount of energy 😂
They needed to at least try to hide her win
And when she fake cried for rice
@@Matthew-nw5tbshe fake cried a lot
She'd drive me crazy 😂
But I think she's GREAT!!!!!
It's like they say sometimes the best player NEVER wins
Still cannot believe a girl I went to elementary school with is a Survivor winner. Insane.
That's crazy!
That’s awesome!
Did you bully her?
@@POOOOOOOO416 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@POOOOOOOO416 I sincerely hope not
Maryanne’s speech was just amazing and I’m glad she won not only because of her personality but she’s the youngest black woman to ever win the game
Not hard to be the youngest black woman to win the game, when she’s only the second black woman to win.
Notice how they didn’t heart this comment lmao
@@azealiasbanx492 what's that supposed to mean? 🤨🤨
@@viktoryc they hate black excellence
@@azealiasbanx492 why are you presuming they do? You just assume someone is racist? Very smart of you
The reaction the jury had to her winning was heart warming.
Might be my favorite winner ever? If not #1 she's up there. I can't remember the last time we had such a fun and loveable winner on this show ❤️
IMO the last one was Fabio.
As a Kenyan I'm so proud of our Sister, She represented Kenyans very well, Congratulations Maryanne Oketch wewe ndio Bazu.
She almost made Jonathan cry.
That’s a testament to how loved she is
when she won i literally jumped up and down in excitement yelling ‘WEIRD GIRLS WIN!!’
I did the same thing but instead of weird girls I said Black girls
I did the same thing but instead of neurotic quirks or race I said “A HUMAN BEING WON!”
@@neurohack9038 representation matters🙄🙄🙄
@@jpjp2957 I don't think they meant representation doesn't matter...
@@viktoryc well that’s how it comes across. People are going to be excited about winners that represent them in some way. Get over it
The moment she pulled out the idol at FTC, I knew she had it in the bag
when she got rid of Omar, she had it in the bag. he was a perfect decoy winner
@@markjackson6431 literally because I thought he was getting the dominant winner edit
i just luv maryannes win its just a breath of fresh air. Like she did really great i hope we see her return.
I was rooting for her to go far from the very instant she was introduced. She's just so charming, and I really relate to being the odd one out for qualities I can neither define nor change about myself. She's iconic already, and being the most iconic on one of the best newbie casts we've ever gotten (especially in recent years) is saying quite a lot!
not charming just annoying and the way she was talking about the white guy was cringe
She's annoying and calling the the other white players unconscious racist for voting another black person off was pretty disgusting
I literally cried when she won. I’ve never seen anyone like me win this show and when Maryanne won, I was so freaking happy! She played so freakin well
Aw, I just love her so much. She's the happy voice in me that always gets covered up by my quiet demeanor.
Has anyone ever realized the Beware Advantage says "If you take it, it's yours and you MUST do what it says.... At the next immunity challenge you MUST say a secret phrase in front of the other players". Yet when Mike found it, he did not say the secret phrase at the next immunity challenge despite it saying he has to.
probably one of those rules where they ignore it bc a player's rule break made for good tv (i.e jt giving russell the idol with a note when they were in separate tribes)
@@yamirzs rule of cool, if it makes for better tv why not allow it
Iirc the wording was changed in 42 to allow them not to say it at a challenge
I’m firmly in the camp of Maryanne and Drea’s point about unconscious racism as being one of the smartest moves of this season. It was a great moment to endear her to Drea, who despite her advantages was clearly falling to the bottom as a target, as well as open her up to Chanelle and Rocksroy on the jury, whilst still being seen as a good person by the remaining players by not outright saying it was racist. I think it really helped her clinch the game bc it endeared her to the others, practically locking her in for Drea’s vote in the finale, whilst impressing Chanelle and Rocksroy. And even the point that the only one who took it differently, Jonathan, was the only one to NOT vote Maryanne. While she locked the win with the Omar vote out, I think she low key had the game in hand at Tori’s vote.
For the record, Jonathan only voted for Mike because Mike was his best bro friend (something Maryanne herself acknowledged in one of her interviews) Jonathan knew that everyone else was going to vote for Maryanne and he didn't want Mike to tie with Romeo for 2nd place, so he voted for Mike to ensure that Romeo got a 3rd place finish because when all was said and done, Romeo was the reason why Jonathan lost everything on Day 25- the immunity necklace, the fire making challenge since Romeo was in charge of taking someone with him to FTC and forcing the other two to compete in fire-making. Also Jonathan was proud of his bro friend Mike for killing it in the fire making challenge so he had every reason to vote for Mike. There's nothing wrong with him voting for Mike.
Not only was it true, it was a genuine expression of anxiety and its rare to see such a stripped down moment on a show like this
Maryanne is personally my favourite winner on Survivor she deserved her win, I relate so much to her and I think she's absolutely incredible. I was thrilled to see her become victorious I LOVE LOVE LOVE MARYANNE. Thank you for the video
Never seen a season of Survivor (I still love your channel btw) yet this is the third time I've come to revisit Marianne's story cause she's just so entertaining and endeering
Thanks! The show is infinitely better than any video about it.
I haven't seen survivor since whatever colby's season was. I have been binging your videos, and I loved this one. For me it's like watching the season all at once. I get the goose bumps when they do something awesome and I don't have to sit through the cbs edit. Maryanne did one of the best defenses of why she deserved the win that I've seen so far. This was really neat.
Thanks! Though I still think the show is better than any video about it.
Watching videos doesn’t come close to having the same effect as actually watching the show
ya know jeff was laughing about it but the reverse spin to undizzy yourself works, i learned it in dance class to help us when we were first learning to spot turns
Good to know
29:38 honestly I’m glad they said something about this. They felt like subconsciously they were contributing to eliminating their own presence and they spoke their truth. We need more of that
I LOVED Maryanne all season long! I was so scared she would be picked off early at the merge but as the season progressed I saw her making it to final tribal council. I thought she may have lost at final 3 but when I started to see Mike bomb it and Maryanne then seeing step up, I knew she was going to win. So glad Maryanne won, it was a bit unexpected but I am so glad she won. Usually my favorite castaways don't make it too far in the merge.
Damn. Maryanne and Drea showing solidarity like that was chilling. Regardless of how either of them played or strategized, I have the utmost respect for both of them standing up for each other like that. They can both hold their heads up high after a moment like that.
Why? So now if you vote someone off it’s racist? How many whites and Asians have been voted off in a row? Spoiler alert: too many!
"Hey, I'm Maryanne from Survivor and you're watching CBS."
Proceeds to draw the mouse ears and singing the Disney Channel Theme Song.
My 2000s kid brain: She's the most relatably annoying player ever.
I'm so glad she won. She was so much fun :) She was so enthusiastic about everything.
That's exactly why I loved her!
Erika and Maryanne are making Canada proud! Now we know why we weren’t allowed to compete for 40 seasons😂
Canadians are too nice!
@@OnceUponAnIsland No, we’re just really good at manipulation, then making it seems like niceness
@@seanf1451 I love watching the Canadians play BB. Much better than BB US.
She made me as a kenyan soooo freaking proud. I've always dreamt of being on survivor and there's hope 😂😂
51:20 "Three votes Maryanne. THREE spellings of 'Maryanne'. We have a clear winner here but she's going to have to give out autographs."
I thought she’d be voted off for being too annoying. Without Jonathan I think she would of been voted off next and I believe if Drea wouldn’t have said that she was playing her idol out loud Maryanne would’ve/ should’ve went home then. Besides that she played a pretty ideal game, made friends and alliances first, stayed under the radar, found idols, and made a move on the biggest threat to increase her jury stock with little time left in the game to make a big move.
Fair, but I think Tori would have gone home there over Mary Anne if maryanne didn’t play her idol
I loved Maryann from the very beginning and I’m so glad she won! She’s a hero and I hope she finds her true love ❤️
One of my favorite winners ever.
Maryanne had one of my favorite winner edits in the show it's so unique 💙
She played incredibly well, and easily deserved her win. The only somewhat valid point against her is that her big move to take down Omar was largely made possible by Drea sharing information post-vote, something I think most of us strongly believe to be cheating. It was still a good move, though, even if the agency wasn't entirely hers.
Eh the biggest influence to her was Mike or Jonathan telling her about the nullifier, which made her decide it had to be done at 6. But Drea is definitely a factor/influence (if you listened to MO's deep dive, she called it the MacDonalds analogy of influence).
It really still works as a great move, though, since Jonathan and Mike started to worry that Lindsay may save Omar at the last minute and backed away to target Romeo to keep Jonathan safe. Then comes the idea to split the vote so that her extra vote will be what decides it. It makes Lindsay less likely to risk her advantage, leaving Omar vulnerable, and thus eliminated from the game, paving Maryanne’s route to victory so long as she delivered at FTC. And delivered she did.
As much as we all have our gripes with the new era- we can’t take anything from Maryanne. This girl has my whole heart! A win for the weirdos!!
I'd watched a couple seasons of survivor out when 41 came out I started really watching and this season specifically got me hooked. I was so invested in so many people. Hai, drea, omer, and more than anyone Maryanne. What a great season. And what an incredible winner.
Holy shit I cried hearing her speech at the final meeting. She really is special
I LOVED this video and Maryanne, what a sweet person. Happy she won, it was well deserved 💓
This is the first season my fiancé and I watched together and his first ever season. So many good castaways. Not my favorite of all the seasons but it’s worth watching!
Maryann is a winner all the way !!!! LOVE HER AND SOOOO HAPPY FOR HER ❤❤❤
I understand why they do it, but I really hope they go back to some kind of post show reunion. There's so much less to talk about when they haven't seen the show yet, and know about everything that went on around them. How they feel about their gameplay after time away and reflection, things they wish they did differently, how they feel about the way they came off. Or how the public responded to certain things. It was more interesting this time, with how they broke down the vote, but still.
That 3-2-2 move is one of the most impressive votes in the new gen. Literally reminded me exactly like ciries 3-2-1 vote
Guarantee that fellow terminally online Redditor Maryanne is peeping these comments. Hi Maryanne! Loved ur win.
I sent her the video directly so I know she is aware of it at least lol
She was unique and fun to warch. Glad she won.
This is why she’s my fav winner in the new era
I think a better title for Mary Anne could of been something like “The Winner for the Weirdos” or something, cuz I feel like she’s referred to herself as something like that several times during the season and in interviews. However the Bunny-line is very iconic during the season
Enjoying the video so far!
Well I'm done eating my dinner in/at the mailbox! Another great video!👍
What do you think about Maryanne and her winning game?
It’s okay in the big picture (I probably have her above Denise but lower than Tina) but as a game itself it’s good 7/10 she’s great tv tho
I’m happy she won, not because of her skin color or that she is a woman, but because of her personality and character, strategy, intelligence, and ability to grow socially.
I think she was an okay winner like what another person said, but she's funny to watch on TV.
one of my favorite winners ever. I love her.
How can you not like her? Shes so lovable.
I just watched a clip and I love Maryanne
Shes so cute. Love to see such a charismatic winner
This was a great video, I really enjoy watching your content and espcially these well produced Story videos
With that said, I'm confused on why you did this Winner only story video for Tony, Erica, and now Maryanne. You usually format them so well, going through all the major players, and usually covering the ones in order of the boot order in that season. That's a really good way to format these videos, and I loved the Cook Island videos and such for that format.
Is this a patreon thing, or is it like trying to capitalize on views because the season just ended? I only wonder this because not only does this hurt the format that you've set up so well, but it also spoils the winners. I remember the Tony Vlachos WaW win being spoiled from your story video since I had searched up your videos specifically after binging the pearl islands story videos, and the Tony one got thrown right into my face. Wouldve been different if there were more WaW story videos, but he was the only one making it obvious he was the winner. I'm just curious on why the format change for winning players?
Thanks for the compliment! Put simply, the patrons pick the videos I make.
@@OnceUponAnIsland I was wondering if they were patreon request, thanks for answering. Keep up the good work
As a Kenyan 🇰🇪 I'm proud of her
Can you upload more stories from later seasons? Shan, Ricard and Omar all deserve their stories. This current season deserves attention towards Jesse, Cody, Karla and maybe Cassidy.
Great idea! The patrons pick who I cover for story videos :)
Female winners are so satisfying, I couldn’t tell you why, it just is 😅
9:26 When Omar says “your crush”…😂😂
She was amazing!
when she won i teared up ngl
Love her! ❤
A survivor winner journey like no other
4:48 That quote should be in the Survivor HoF
I was fully Team Mike after Omar was voted out, but the final tribal council turned me around on Maryanne completely
What a great winner ❤️
I enjoy the long stories. Feel free to ramble on
These are highly scripted, I promise.
This video is amazing
MY FAVORITE WINNER❤❤❤
This video makes me need a story about Mike
That intro is just the Shaggy Caveman meme
I think the skeevy race tribal move was 100% drea and she kind of backed maryanne into a corner. it would have been really hard for maryanne to not come across as the bad guy if she didn’t go along with what drea did, and in addition if drea had played her idol in any way maryanne was the next obvious choice to go home so she had to play hers. going along with the race card was her best game move whether or not she actually agreed with it
Absolutely disagree, theres a genuine moment of anxiety being expressed by Maryanne and Drea there and I think you're making a huge presumption about what its like to come from a different experience in a society that obsesses over whiteness being the 'default'
Maryanne is the first black woman to win Survivor since Vecepia, on Big Brother Taylor Hale was the first and only black woman to win in 25 years. Social games highlight social problems
@@smol-one As a neurodivergent person I saw so much of myself in Maryanne.
16:58 the Rick Devin’s news sound from season 38
theres no way that maryanne is not in hvv 2.
… and isn’t voted out immediately. She most likely never wins again.
I don't agree Maryanne had three locks, I think only one, Tori.
How has she not watched the best part of tocantins
I imagine Tori’s video will be titled ‘how not to survivor on survivor’
So much love for Maryanne! The weird one pulled through to the very end
Johnathan was the unlikely ally for Maryanne
I've only watched a few seasons of survivor so I haven't seen all the twists survivoe has to offer, but just hesring about that hourglass twist pissed me off 😭
I hate how in the 10 seconds into the video you already classified Tori as a villain. I know its not portrayed in the show but just according to ponderosa from accounts shes the best
The show paints her as a villain.
Yeah i agree. I feel Omar fits better
I get this but it's not an analysis of whether she really was a villain but an analysis of how the show presented the story
What about Mike, or Romeo.
I really don't think you understood the race talk
💗
Maryanne had a lot of parallels with fabio but she was clearly a lot more strategic it just feels like she didnt have the personality to really guide the game how you want, shes a genius but not a leader. I love that she won but i think any survivor season is won with varying degrees of luck
There’s always going to be luck in winning because in a lot of cases, you have to fight against people being good at certain areas. A possible target not winning immunity, or an advantage going unused, not being targeted out of nowhere, or being trusted by someone who really shouldn’t trust you, stuff like that. Little bits of luck are what makes the game because the unpredictable factors make it fun to follow. And it builds most winners victories that they got that little bit lucky.
we all go marching one by one hoorah hoorah
Thats mother right there!
My favorite winner since probably Kristie or Cochran
I knew a person with the same energy as Maryanne they started fun and positive but then is quickly shifted when they got called out for "less than ethical" behavior, shifted to constant negativite energy. Playing the race card at tribal isnt a good look tbh 🤷♂️ even tho shes right
If you flip a coin 100 times to see if the head/tail ratio is indeed 50/50, and after the first 4 flips it comes up heads, would you force the next flip to be tails in order to even out the ratio? If we don't like the immediate outcome, should we manipulate the conditions simply because it doesn't look right from the outset? This is what these Maryanne and Drea did, acting on emotion and motivated by political impulse. It all started when it was time to vote the 3rd member of the jury, both M and D entered tribal council and stared at the existing jury members. Rocksory, who is also B, had been voted out only moments previous. In that moment, both of them made their decisions: the next person voted out would not be B, which means it would conveniently not be one of them. Jonathan may have won his immunity with his toil that day, but Maryanne and Drea won their immunity by simply walking into tribal council. We can say without a doubt that when the finale came, no matter what, there would eventually be more W people on the jury than B, but this didn't matter. Immediate gratification would prevail over long-term strategy or even common sense. Just like a coin landing on heads too many times in a row, this outrageous trend of two B people being voted into the jury would end, no matter what. There would not be a 3rd in a row, no matter how many tears Maryanne had to shed to make that happen.
The fact is that neither of the two women knew why Rocksroy had been voted out that night. For all they knew, he may have had only one vote against him and someone else played an idol, thus eliminating him. But for Maryanne and Drea, it didn't matter. What did matter is that the optics of the situation were more important for them than the truth... it was more important than the game itself. A modicum of social justice would be doled out right then and there, even if it was on a reality TV competition, even if that justice were to benefit mostly two people on that tribe. Maryanne's tears, emotion, and seemingly manic behavior would win the moment, and eventually the season. MLK could not have done better. No one opposed it because they knew that speaking contrary to Maryanne would be social suicide, personal cancellation was at risk, and on TV no less.
Story of Erik Reichenbach?

The girl deserve the win 😂
Hands down.....the most ANNOYING person on Survivor!!
she was a satisfying winner, wish her edit was better.
Her edit wasn't bad tbh. She was basically the main thing next to Mike. Her win was explained well enough on the show for me
@@drewlmao Yeah, but Mike got like, 11 more confessionals then her.
Mike should’ve got less, I found him annoying
@@seanf1451 Yeah I think they tried a bit too hard to make this a "why [frontrunner to win on paper] lost" type of season. I liked watching Mike though
Statistically, Maryanne has one of the best edits for a female winner in survivor history
i personally, just watched season 42 and its awful. jonathan was a beast and should have won IMO. or Mike. i did not care for maryann at all!
New generation Ethan.
Overtime her win will settle on me as a great winner, but with how bad the editing was this season to make her finale underwhelming, I still have her as a bottom tier winner

What about her?
