And quit while on the jury.
Johnny Fairplay - I just think he’d be fun to throw in with a group of weirdos.
I’d include the fat black woman from a couple of seasons back who accused another castmate of sexually assaulting her. IIRC, they voted her out the next TC.
There was this one season where this heavy metal guy who was also heavy himself, fell in love with a woman from the other team and announced at tribal council that he had met his soul mate. I want that guy back.
ETA: I really would like to see this in a “I can’t look away” kind of way.
Many, many seasons back…that was Ghandia in Thailand, wasn’t it?
How about the guy who could barely stand, but his alliance wouldn’t let him quit and they basically carried him for about 4 TCs because his vote was critical.?
What about the crazy lady on Fans vs Favorites? Kathy? who basically had a mental breakdown?
I’m nominating Brandon for worst player in Survivor history. It’s like he’s never watched the show and he is physically incapable of keeping his mouth shut. I’m not sure which would be worse for him on redemption island, having to sleep with a whore of Babylon or some dude in which he might catch teh ghey.
My girlfriend just started watching Survivor last season (Philip’s) and asked “is there a crazy black person on every season?” A fair question. I think the response is yes, but there are crazy white people each season, too.
No, no…there’s not a crazy black person on every season. Some seasons, they have a lazy black person! And some seasons they have a stupid black person (James, you know who I’m looking at…)!
There’s probably a sign over the gate to Ponderosa: “Abandon all hope, ye racial stereotypes, for Burnett’s casting guidelines have suckered you yet again!”
That’s the one. I believe her nickname here was “Gonnorhea.” 
Wow…that was almost 10 years ago! That was actually my first Survivor season.
Hmmm. This makes me wonder if the whole point of Redemption Island isn’t to make sure that no potentially “interesting” players are gone that quickly.
Old format: Minimum possible number of episodes = 1.
New format: Minimum possible number of episodes = 3.
At least we got to know and mock Poetry Boobs a little.
Survivor: Special Teams would be great because each person would be playing his/her own game that only makes sense in their own world and at tribal council they would be tripping over themselves to spill every secret they knew. It’s like a baby with a gun, you don’t know what’s going to happen, but it’s going to be awesome!
I’m amazed you kept watching. I think that was probably my least favorite season ever.
It was all new and fascinating to me then. Plus, that was the season with the greatest “GOTCHA!” ever…when Probst said, “I didn’t say anything about a merge”, Shii An’s jaw dropped straight down and just dug into the sand…
When was the last time they shuffled the tribes before the merge? That was always good for some drama as everybody tried to maintain alliances while forming new ones.
That was the Brian Heidik season, right? I miss that dude. He seemed like a complete turd of a person, and yet he played one of the best games that I can remember.
Yes, Brian Heidik, the car salesman cum (if you’ll excuse the entirely appropriate Latinate borrowing) soft-core pr0n star.
See? THIS is why I love you.
I liked Brian, too. Probst always lists that as his least favorite season, though. He hated all the final four.
