Sally, Austin, Nick, Ruth Marie, Melinda, Dan, Bruce, Danielle, Aras aren't very good If Terry was voted out after Sally. The season would have been like Thailand (Casaya 6 = Chuay Jai 5). Plus bad editing is also a factor so its definitely not number-1 in Post ASS-seasons. I don't think Gabon would have been a classic even if there's no twists because the cast is not like-able! They might be entertaining but their personalities are ugly!

There is nothing inherently worse about this cast than any other, but that's my opinion. Your mileage may vary. Not everyone in Gabon was meanspirited or dull. Look at Dan.

Well...except for Corinne and Sugar. But it wouldn't be the best because the players doesn't have that factor that can inspire people. Like Rupert he might not be the best in personality, but he was the favorite of all except for me that's why Pearl Islands was so great about and why people watched All-Stars. Also with Stephenie! If Ibrehem was the last ulong standing he probably wouldn't be in Guatemala because he was so boring while Stephenie (Palau) was very likeable!.

Why are the redeeming qualities that Dan, Austin, Nick, Sally, Ruth Marie, Melinda, Danielle, Aras and Bruce had during the show that I didn't see. My favorite was Misty but she was boring and safe too. Terry was good because if kept winning the challenges but if he was weak there is nothing great to say to him.

Posts: 8343 (06/16/09 6:49 PM) Registered user Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	First of all JLKName, I disagree with you about "inspirational" castaways. Survivor is just a game, there's nothing worthy enough in it for it to be inspirational. Who one likes on the show is all about personal preference. For example,. I'm a big fan of Richard Hatch because of his personality and intellect, and that he seems to see Survivor the same way I do. I realize that I could be totally wrong because I only "know" him through the show, which means I don't know him at all. In the same vein, you can't really be "inspired" by anyone because of the manipulative editing. I thought everyone on that particular cast(Panama) had a good amount of screen time for us to know them a little. I think that by Survivors very nature, the peoples true personalities and quirks come out, as opposed to something like "The Amazing Race" or "The Mole" which is based upon a fixed point. On Survivor, the castaways ARE the point. I'll admit that Panama had very bad editing, which I accredit to the the new editing style, but most of them got out of the "crossfire" unscathed. Like, for all this talk about lets say Danielle being boring, at least we got to see WHY she was boring. Just like how on All Stars and Australia, we got to see why Amber was a boring girl. The newer seasons don't offer that luxury, and they just assume the players are subservient to the game. That Survivor is ABOUT the game, which it isn't. Furthermore, I just happen to like the cast more than several pre ASS seasons. I liked Panamas cast more than Australias or Marquesas's'.

You didn't answer my question What are the redeeming qualities that Dan, Austin, Nick, Sally, Ruth Marie, Melinda, Danielle, Aras and Bruce had during the show that I didn't see. If you're saying Danielle was really boring and the show proved that she was really boring then you're taste is bad!!! It maybe be real but Survivor is still a TV show not just a game! the contestants still gotta entertain its viewers.

One-The editing doesn't allow us to really know the castaways, so this is already an unfair question Two-They got more screentime than the average Post ASS season Three-I simply like them, no explanation needed.

That's odd! Screen time doesn't really matter as long as its entertaining. And if the editing doesnt allow us to really know the castaways then why watch Survivor. And if you really like them, there's always an explanation like "Oh I like Stephen because he's a cute nerd or Sandy is crazy I love her" because if you don't have any reasons why and then that's dumb of you its like "I just randomly like S12's cast because I don't know"!

Why talk to online personalities when many of them lie about their identity? I think that they show enough of the people for me to know that Survivor isn't totally made up, and the entire concept of Survivor is so interesting to me that I would watch even if I knew it were totally made up, just to see someones take on the situation. Actually, I would throw out "Lord of the Flies" from my bookshelf before I throw out any of my Survivor seasons. I don't like stereotyping people like that, and it's kind of messy anyway since you lose a lot of their other qualities. I just like watching people, even the boring ones.

Yeah they didn't made it up
