One of Survivor's Best
26 Jun 2007
By Courtenay Gleaton
- Published on Amazon.com
Survivor Vanuatu: Islands of Fire, the ninth season of the series, is definitely among the best seasons of Survivor. This season featured many interesting and unpredictable plot twists: an earthquake; nude sunbathing; shocking tribal council outcomes; and, of course, the winner. The DVDs' features are great. The four featurettes, along with the audio commentaries, add much insight and intrigue into what happened behind the scenes. Overall this was an excellent season of Survivor, and this DVD set is a must-have for any true Survivor fan.

Dumb and Dumber!

This season of "Survivor" I thought should be called "dumb and dumber!" I found it to be one of the funnest seasons to watch that is out on video. The thing that was great was it's girls vs guys. You get to watch how each tribe handles this. Watching this season with my girlfriend was fun, I found the guys to be irritatingly stupid, and she found the girls to be irritatingly catty and stupid. There are a few surprises and lots of irritation to the viewer as you watch these people create so much drama and problems for themselves. I liked the variety of women on the show and watching them interact. The guys were pretty boring and stupid I thought, but didn't detract from the show, only making it better because you couldn't believe how stupid they were playing! I found myself wanting them to keep playing so dumb so I could say "told ya so!" I was VERY surprised at the final two, and was compelled enough throughout the entire season. Not the best played "Survivor" per say, but fun on it's own merit of pretty much what NOT to do. Worth watching!

No spoilers.
Survivor is one of the best reality shows ever made imo. I recall seeing the previews for the first season and was immediately intrigued. Although I have not seen every season since, I have seen almost all of them.
After the conclusion of the last season on tv. I decided I would buy a DVD set. I picked Vanuatu, which I watched the original airing of, but I did not recall who won. I did recall that one of the tribe received an extra clothing in an unusual way and thought that was pretty cool. Unfortunately, having read several reviews here on Amazon a few decided to give away the ending. THANKS ALOT!
I still like watching it quite a bit and usually sit down and watch two or three episodes back to back. It is fun to watch the challenges and personal hustling over votes the tribe members do with each other. I had hoped there would be some extra footage thrown in but this is just the original episode. Yes there are some extra features, but I would have preferred to see them integrated into a seamless episode.
Which brings up a interesting point. That is the editors who put the show together. They could just show all the scheming among members so that you would more or less know the outcome of the vote beforehand. But they choose the footage to show so that you get an idea of what is going on but are not always sure of the outcome. And that is one of the things that makes the series so great. Now how is it that the people who created the DVD set chose to put the Survivors on the DVD covers in the order they are voted out!? So when you get your set, close your eyes try to load the DVD's WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED! DUH!
