Why on earth they don't bring back Russell Hantz is a mystery to me.

I always thought Rusell Hantz was the best player never to win.

That was Richard Hatch, not Russell Hantz.

He's on the short list.. but everyone hated him too much to vote for him.

Yeah, he was one of the best players, but he was never going to win the game with that play style. If he played a little more like Tony Vlachos he would have probably won, he was just too unlikable.

After his nephew got kicked off Survivor and his brother got kicked off Big Brother CBS decided they had enough of the Hantz family.

Plus both times he came back after his first two seasons aired and he was a known quantity... he was voted out immediately because no one wanted to play with him.

Hatch wrote the book on how to play survivor. A lot of the first season players were playing a singles strategy. Hatch created the first alliance and it won him $1m

It's been a long time since I've watched season 1, but I do remember one guy voting alphabetically all season. Very little strategy going on except for Richard.

Ironically, the player who voted alphabetically was a literal brain surgeon from Manhattan whose name escapes me.

I remember reading a very short story about Survivor before it aired and I told my ex I would recruit a group of people and vote out everyone. The story emphasized the survival aspect of the game.

I REALLY hope Cirie doesn't win this season!

I wish they didn't do away with the fan favorite reward.

I'm a casual fan, can someone tell me why they don't vote off cirie? She lays around all day and is terrible at challenges. Is she just an easy take to the end because she's not a threat?

If she gets to the final 3 she wins. I cannot understand why they have carried her this long

Where originally I thought Aubry and Tiffany had no shot at winning, it's starting to shape up where one of them might win if they make it to the final. In Jonathan, Joe and Rizos best interest to get each other to the final 3
