TAR wins because it is a noob show that you don't need to watch anything to get into the show, you don't need to know what happened before to understand what happens now, so if you send an episode to the guys who rate the shows for the prize they can enjoy the show much more than when watching survivor.

I don't know about that--Ryan/Chuck would probably qualify for the quirkiest TAR7 team, at least on paper.
