Sweet, that one is on prime. Prime has 1, 3, then 13-28.

Guess I'll start 26 tmrw then next week do 31/33/37/40 after I get the cbs app free trial.

I kinda hate that I've kept going backwards but oh well. I wish I could go back in time and do 13/16/20 in that order instead of reversed.

Yes, Tyler Perry, but the main point they made was that it would be hidden without any clues. Before then all the immunity idols had clues to their locations.

Apparently production didn't think anyone would ever find it.

Ok I'm definitely getting seasons mixed up then...wasn't there a season with an idol with "special powers" (viewer wasn't told what they were) but wasn't found? I could have sworn I saw that in 20 or 28

UMR do you agree with Joe about 26 being a great one and worthy of an upcoming watch?

Yeah I think so. Won’t lie the first few episodes are kinda tame but then it’s set ablaze and when it hits the merge it’s full steam ahead culminating in a fantastic winner.

I'd put 26 in the middle tier... mostly because of the one-sidedness early on.

Great winning performance, though.

Season 26's final tribal was a textbook in how to win over the jury.

Yes, one of the dumbest (I don't think THE dumbest, though) moves in Survivor history.

That would be my pick, and I'll remove the name for spoilers... but I think the runner up in Cagayan made an even dumber move in the same spot.

OP needs to keep us updated on which seasons he has watched so we can post spoilers about those.

I think he said he's watched 16 now...

Yep. That was a bigger blunder than Season 2.

I've watched 20, then 28, then 16, and am 2 episodes away from finishing up 13. I'll finish that tonight. From there I'll do 26, then wil get the CBS all access app to do 31/33/37/40. That's my current plan anyway.

I appreciate all (well, most all...) the discussion in here. It feels like I'm having a personal watch party with everyone cheering me on lol. I didn't think I would get as sucked in as I did and anticipated watching 1 or maybe 2 seasons solely based on what were ranked as the best ones. I realize now I should've done it differently but oh well. Really I'm just trying to get enough backstory heading into 40. If I could do things differently I would have loved to have a lot more background and history on the cast from 20. 20 was the first one I watched and ti was a 10/10, I was amazed. But having the backstory would have made it an 11 if possible. So taht's what I'm shooting for with 40. I'm also avoiding reading ANYTHING at all about 40, becuase even if I see a blurb like "john doe on this season" it'd let me know he's won before.

Now that the a-hole has spoiled it...I wasn't descriptive before when you asked me about Yul, because the other season that he is on is season 40 lol
