We’ve been posting on this WordPress domain since 2014, but for those that don’t know, we started Reality TV Guide with a Blogger account back in January 2007. If you are aware of our existence back in the day and visited our blog in that early 2007 period, you probably remember my hatred for Survivor: Fiji. It was the first Survivor season we ever covered. In retrospect, I should’ve waited. I was already let down by the previous season, Survivor: Cook Islands, they were well into what I considered the dark ages of the show, and when they announced that the main twist was the haves vs. the have-nots, I did not expect this to be a good season. Yet, I still gave it a chance, because I was ready to start talking about Survivor so early after the blog started. And even then, I wasn’t expecting this. Let me say it louder for those in the back. Fiji was a terrible season. It’s one of the worst reality TV seasons we’ve ever recapped on our blog. Easily the worst Survivor season I’ve ever seen. Recapping every episode and always having something to say afterwards was a testament to how much I hated this season.
So here I am 14 years later, and I should feel content leaving it as it is. I don’t want to rewatch a season that’s going to make me revisit my most miserable moment as a reality TV writer. And since I’ll get anyone fired for ever speaking positively about Survivor: Fiji, that’s why you’ll never see a season recap of it. But I feel like the more I sit there silently, the more this season will get a pass from the fanbase. And if I can be the voice of reason to remind them of its faults in some form, well, give me a motherfucking torch, because it’s about to be used for roasting than extinguishing. This is the top 10 reasons why Survivor: Fiji SUCKS!
