A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

FISHMONGERS AND GROGGY TAGI:  I spent some time last night recording an episode of the Purple Rock Podcast, as part of their review of all Survivor seasons past. If you've never listened before, Survivor fans, duh, start with this one.

We discussed Borneo, All Stars I, Guatemala, and Thailand, so there's a lot of talk about Survivor's icky history in dealing with sexual assault, but also my pontificating on all the things which made Borneo groundbreaking television, evolution in the show and Jeff Probst's role over time, whether All Stars was disappointing given how many fan favorites left early, and why certain seasons (and participants) are canonical.  Below the fold, what I had sent them for my overall season rankings:

1. Heroes v Villains 
2. Borneo
3. Pearl Islands
4. Palau
5. All Stars 1
6. Outback
7. Fans v Favorites
8. Amazon
9. Vanuatu
10. Guatemala
11. Caramoan
12. Cagayan
13. Panama
14. Marquesas
15. Redemption Island
16. Blood v Water
17. South Pacific
18. [All the seasons I haven't seen.]
19. Philippines
20. Samoa
21. Africa
22. Nicaragua
23. Thailand
