I say this as one of the biggest Wentworth stans, she had no business being voted into Second Chances over the likes of T-Bird. She was overshadowed by her dad on SJDS. But oh boy I'm so glad I was proved wrong when she got in! Forever an icon!
It was probably recency bias, Wentworth had just played while T-Bird hadn't been involved with the show for over a decade at that point. She absolutely deserved a spot but I understand how she ended up not being voted on (and tbh she probably should've been cast on All Stars over someone like an Amber or Alicia).
Lowkey I think Wentworth got voted on due to a couple people probably mixing up Wentworth and Wigglesworth when they voted.
Wentworth was a regular RHAP fixture at the time too
Facts
wentworth, from what ive heard, campaigned HARD to get back. T-Bird shouldve been swapped out for Monica or Kimmi
Good list, personally I would find a spot for Tyson Apostal somewhere there simply because of how versatile he’s been through his seasons. He went from a challenge threat people had to take out to a strong alliance players when he eventually won, and by season 40 he was a pretty well rounded threat that got eliminated almost solely off fear of his resume.
Agreed. Arc wise it's a really fascinating story cause I feel like you can really see him mature more than a lot of other players in his return visits. Comparing Tocantins Tyson to BvW/WAW Tyson is like night and day.
I found it so refreshing to not see Tyson in this video.
@@lallana2882 :(
@@MrWanton16 agreed
Tyson is basically a reality TV hall of fame first ballot but I really need him on Big Brother.
Fun Fact: The only female winner that Boston Rob hasn't played in a season with (that he was eligible to) is Natalie White. Erika and Maryanne appear in seasons Rob couldn't have appeared in.
Bonus Fun Fact: Boston Rob has also played with every Survivor winner that has played at least twice or more with the only exceptions being Cochran and Aras.
I'm sorry, I saw Rob in the thumbnail.
Also Aras

Interesting analysis
Wow Jeff Probst in the comments!
Kelly Wentworth's game in Cambodia was so amazing to see. She definitely has one of the most rootable games we have ever seen. When she lost that final immunity challenge I literally cried.
I feel you I almost cried too I was so devastated because when Second Chances first began I didn't even remember who Kelly was but for some reason when I saw her looking for the idol on that first episode I was like this is my winner pic and I really thought she was going to go all the way
Her game on that season was pretty underrated too, she was only targeted at 3 of the tribals all season
You know the reason she cried when she lost was because I don't know if you know this but every challenge they do a practice round before they do the real thing and she won the practice round I would have cried too
Should've given Jerri a mention, because her 3 season story arc was great, especially with being one challenge away from possibly winning HvV
Great point. I maintain that we met the real Jerri in HvV. She really came full circle and was so likable.
@@kingofthorns203 More like the edit didn't want to show Jerrie in a positive light because this time it was more better villains to throw under the bus like Russell and Parvati.
Jerri ❤❤❤
Parviti was an amazing story. Literally one of the more unremarkable "favs" brought on who was just some pretty face best known for getting naked in a hot tub in her original season, only to showcase herself as a top player and be a cornerstone of one of the best alliances ever.
Kinda surprised not to see Amanda on this list. I get there’s only 10 spots but she was the first to reach FTC twice and she went 108 days without getting her torch snuffed.
Me too. She is a killer player. She just sucks at selling herself to the jury.
Cochran’s arc across his two seasons was the single greatest glow-up in Survivor history. Also I haven’t seen a single comment about Coach or Sophie, both of whom I think have great stories across their seasons
Amanda Kimmell is my fave returnee for making day 39 back to back and being one of the first to break 100 in-game days. She is underrated and a definite icon fior setting precedent among greats.
Michelle's returning game in WAW, Kelly's Wentworth in Cambodia, Cirie in 16 and 34, Parvati in 16 and 20 and Sandra in 20. Man it was so damn nice to root for them.
Parvati wasn't in 34 so I think you mean 20
Bro michelle in waw did heck shit😅😅 legit goat, had no clue what is going on 95% of the season
@@creepycheese1 opinions are like a holes we all have them.
@@creepycheese1 What are you talking about? Michele did everything she could in her position. Yes she was on the bottom, but she tried to get in/break-up/schemed againts Tony's alliance, won multiple immunity challenges, played some sort of an idol(50/50) coin, had a positive attitude and she NEVER GAVE UP. It was not just impressive, but inspiring.
Erik the ice cream scooper 2.0 was so darn close to winning.
Kelley's return in Cambodia still gives me chills to this day. She went from being perceived as a filler on the Second Chance ballot, to super fans pissed over her "taking" T-Bird/Carolyn's spot, to giving us a complete show from episode 1 to finale night.
I would have loved Jerri and Colby to be mentioned as a duo. They have one of the strongest 3 arc stories to ever appear on Survivor as they go from flirts to enemies to rivals to friends over the course of their three seasons together. Both of their reputations grew and kind of ended up inverted at the end of their journeys. Great stuff, and both legends in their own right.
I was so glad to see Michele make it to the final three of WAW, her performance was severely underrated and it baffles me how Natalie was barely in the game and still mustered more votes than her. she didn’t really stand a chance against Tony, but Michele was a social beast and did amazingly well in challenges, I rooted for her for the whole season
I agree! Given the cards she was dealt and the position she was in throughout WAW, I think she did better than anyone could have.
Michele was suppose to get like 4 votes (from what it sounds like, each of the Final 3 had 4 votes going in) but the people who wanted to vote Michele were worried the swing votes were going to vote Natalie and did not want her to win, so it was more so they voted Tony to win cause they didn't want Natalie to win (and not saying they didn't want Tony to win).
I love Michele she’s one of my favorite players
I actually really like this list. I didn't expect to see Michele on here, but I'm glad she's getting the respect she deserves.
It was a nice balance of old school and new school players
Seeing Rupert vote for Sandra again made me wonder how many people have correctly voted for a winner more than once. May not be enough content for a video but could at least be a decent Twitter thread! 😂
I believe Andrea and Cirie have always voted for the winner, Rupert woukdve joined them too of a 3 time winner voter but sadly he vited for Rob in all stars
I think once upon an island already did a video like this
Andrea, Cirie, and Joe are tied with 3 correct jury votes
alicia, big tom, lex, cirie, eliza, rupert, penner, malcolm, andrea, laura morett, ciera, kass, joe, abi maria, keith, aubry, zeke, david and sarah (might have missed out on someone here)
also: at the top of my head, jenna lewis, kathy, james and parvati have never voted correctly as jurors
Whenever you or other channels give Sarah her props, I love it. I would say shes the most hated female winner, and among one of the most hated Survivor players out there….and so i thank you so much for giving her what she deserves: positive feedback for how well she played.
Thank you!
Agreed. Sarah is a fantastic player and it breaks my heart that she gets so much hate, especially cuz most of it is based on her political beliefs and I think basing how you feel about a contestant on that is really stupid
@@Quetzal00358 My take on it as a democrat is….its her own opinion, so stop hating on her because of her opinions. It would be a different matter if she was outwardly homophobic, racist or misogynistic, but I have never seen that, or heard of anything that was in that nature. She’s worked with and made bonds with several democrat and liberal players. I don’t understand why politics goes into Survivor when it doesn’t have to, like this situation we are talking about lol
@@seth1989rtv That's what the internet does to people. While I haven't seen any of these comments, mostly because I don't care for political drama, I do believe most people are taking things out of context. Though, and this is because I'm a statistics guy, I can't say its impossible that she didn't offend someone in a legitaly, because of people's view on comments like that. Regardless its majorly overblown, I'm not agree personally with someone's beliefs, but I know better not attack a person for those beliefs and to drag down their accomplishes.
I think the dislike for Sarah came from a couple things
One, her season. Game Changers was a hot mess with a lot iffy people so people felt like her winning wasn't as impressive
Two, if people remember Cagayan, Sarah went really hard on Kass for how she played, and then basically played the same way to win Game Changers, so people who liked Kass felt Sarah was really hypocritical
And three, in Winners at War, while Sarah is apart of the dynamic duo of Cops R Us, the edit mainly focused on what Tony was doing and sort of made Sarah seem like she was riding his coattails, until the finale where suddenly it was "why isn't Sarah getting credit for what she does"
Sarah, I think, is not the worst winner, hell I enjoyed her much more on Winners at War. But it's Survivor and honestly, when have winners who are women ever gotten a huge amount of respect? I still see people say to this day Sandra didn't deserve to win either of her seasons with their whole heart, and then gives props to someone like Ben.
@@MidnightScout Interesting, because I've been seeing a lot of Ben haters recently. As for Sandra, I can see why at first glance her HV win is slightly controversial, but looking at it again shows that Parv burned the jury like Russell, and she played a decent game on top of it. Her Pearl Islands win is completely solidified regardless if she's up against Lill, or whoever wins the none outcast post-merge with her. Fairplay's biggest ally was a former outcast and Lill stood no chance of winning so I don't see how people claims she doesn't win either season, especially PI. As for Sarah, yeah, between her and Brad being two of the finalists it put gameplay in a negative light, but she played a great game overall despite the competition. It's interesting saying people say this about GC, when we've had plenty of winners face worse competition. Female winners are less recognized, but Kim, Denise, Sandra, Tina, and Parv all get their due as winners, well maybe not Denise. Maryanne was also received generally well after pulling a Todd and taking the victory from Mike. Over time, Vecepia, Jenna M., Sophie, Michelle, and even Erika have received the right recognition to people who truly understand the game the best the audience can. While I do think the winning men get talked about too much, I think given we've had more high energy and somewhat controversial winners be men before S41, does that unjust, plus the edit does make us unfairly hate some of these winners like Erika in 41
Great list. I love how you pointed out that Michele is the ONLY winner never to have been voted out in a returning season… that’s crazy!
Parvati is such a GOAT for me. She’s everything I love in an entertaining evil queen. I’m also gay so bias 😂🙌🏼 Honestly I think my Holy Trinity(not really cause it’s 4) might be Boston Rob, Parvati, Cirie and Sandra. I just love em so much
Sandra’s confession when voting out Rupert gets me every time 😂😂
I’d put Cochran on Caramoan on this list. His storyline is the best storyline in survivor history imo
How was Tyson not on this list? Yeah, he totally shat the bed on Heroes vs Villains, but the determination and 100% focus he had on Blood vs. Water? Easily should have put him in a top 10.
The funny part is that was the only season he wasn't taking seriously at first he only went so his girlfriend could have a Survivor experience and then when they targeted her because of him he told himself he had to win or else he ruined her Survivor experience for nothing
Great list! I think Cochran should be an honorable mention. He went from the snake that flipped then returned and played a great game and won
How did you not mention Tyson? He has like, the best 3-season story arc out of anyone.
Started off as a villain that you love to root for in Brazil then and Heroes versus Villains he was a villain who started to grow a little bit of a heart in that tiny little nation of Samoa and then he blossomed into a hero that we wanted to root for on blood versus water and I don't know which country they were in
No matter how many times I watch that moment in Game Changers with Cirie, it hurts so much. While I did enjoy it as a viewer from home, it still hurts to this day😭😭
Cirie is probably my all time fave, next to Parv and Rob, and I will forever be heartbroken that she never won. And also, to this day, I never saw the full episodes of her being asked to leave because she did not have an advantage on Game Changers, nor did I watch the remaining episodes of Game Changers after she was so rudely taken out from the show :P
I remember I met Kelley Wentworth RIGHT before Cambodia aired. I honestly forgot when she played because she was a bit invisible, but I was excited and rooted for her just out of "I know her" bias. SHE SLAYED THAT SEASON AND IM LUCKY AS HELL.
Wait that was you in the hospital. She made a post about it
Sad to not see phillip here. Voting franchesqua off 1st 2 seasons in a row is legendary.
I got blindsided by Peridiam by not seeing Cochran on the list
Even though russel played back to back I think that's still a reason for him to be on the greatest returning players, the man changed the game and was one of if not the biggest players and threats on his seasons. In his 3rd return, people literally threw to get him out.
Amazing top 10, I can't agree more. And you are so great at analysis and also commentary. I appreciate your videos so much.
Loved this! Maybe the sequel or the 2.0 version of this could be Top 10 Greatest Returnees just on sheer entertainment value. People like Coach, Tyson, Russell, Penner, etc. who might not have played the best on their returning seasons but were huge portions of the entertainement value of those seasons.
Ive never saw Tony's and Sarah's games as Cops R Us until WAW in Cagayan they never voted together and in Game Changers they werent even on the same tribe but in WAW they were definetly The Cops R Us duo
Michelle is such an underrated player. always loved her, glad you included her on the list!!
I would give an honorable mention to Cochran, just because I'm a sucker for zero-to-hero stories. He dominated his 2nd run from start to finish.
Cirie is the reason I fell in love with survivor back in season 12 and I've been a fan ever since
Tony winning WaW was just insane because I was so sure one of the lesser threats was going to win that season going in
Tribal council is one of if not the most iconic staples of Survivor. I think that a cool video could be top5/10 tribal council metaphors. An example could be tonight’s survivor when jessy brought up the same analogy for trust from last tribal. Just a suggestion, love your vids!
Some are also entertaining when they get heated
The duck from last week :)
Boston Rob casually reading from a teleprompter while proposing to Amber.
Francesca never ate the rock though :(
My top ten greatest returning players: are 1) Kelly Wentworth, 2) Parvati, 3) Cire Fields, 4) Malcolm, 5) Stephen, 6) Sandra, 7) Ozzy, 8) Colby Donaldson, 9) Natalie, and 10) Keith Nale.
Good list respect the research
No Cochran on here is kinda crazy. He played a perfect game. Definitely think he should be on here.
That ending credit scene is priceless! 🤣
Jeremy should be near the top.
Cirie is such a ray of sunshine! ❤️
I would put Tyson and Natalie in my top 10 for sure. Natalie is one of my favorite players ever and I loved her WAW game. I found it so interesting how it mirrored her sister's game in San Juan del Sur of being voted off first. However Natalie was determined to be the one to come back and win it all, and she could've if she got rid of big Tony
Michele on WAW did for me the same emotional (and frankly, strategic) impact on me the way Sandra on Game Changers did. They might not have been winning games, but damn did they show up and show OUT. With both games, I knew what they were capable of going into it, but also knew the likeliness of them winning again against their specific juries would have been too difficult.
Sandra had me fooled for a large portion of GC's pre-merge that she could really do it, and if it wasn't for getting swap-screwed (and... screwed by JT...), who knows how GC could've turned out. Michele similarly probably had the best story out of everyone on WAW. Her narrative thread was incredibly clear from start to finish, and seeing her - someone who didn't attend any tribal council on her first season and get judged just for being a less visible social player - navigate the bottom and skate by round after round, without ever touching the Edge, using that same social game... I don't care, I loved it.
1:52 Jeff was very much interested in a proposal from Robert
8:52 is one of the Angkor Wat temples in Cambodia, I went there in October. So i’ve walked on the same ground as Kelly Wentworth!! My life is complete lol!
Jerri Manthey in HvV 👑
I'll watch anything Cirie and Parvati are in
I feel like the only reason cirie was on the heroes tribe is because her and Parvati on the same time would be completely unfair 😂
I'm excited for the next round of all stars with the new gameplay
Cirie was so robbed that season with the surprise final 2. To this day I get so upset when I think about that.
If Cook island hadnt been fixed in favor of the Aitu 4, Parvati is a serious contender to win there too.
Tbh I think Michelle is a two time winner on a different season. Without the Edge existing and without Tony playing a wild returning game, Michelle would be the HvV Sandra of the season. But alas, it was WaW and she was going against Tony and the post-Second Chances sentimentality of Survivor.
the way i screamed when michele was mentioned YESSSSSSSSS
I am literally crying when you introduce michelle F she really is a great player i don’t know why alot overlooked her gameplay😢❤
I feel like Cochran should’ve been on this list. From being on the outs with his tribe and flipping in South Pacific to coming back in Caramoan and not only winning but being the second sole survivor ever to play a perfect game
Michele was an amazing winner and should've won her second season, but idk if we're ready to have that conversation
Ozzy twice, Amanda, Russell, Cochran, Keith, Spencer, and Brad all deserve to be on this list as at least honorable mentions. I’d argue Russell over Amber but overall fantastic job.
My personal top ten for this is
Tony: 1
Cirie: 2 (she wins if a final 3)
Sandra: 3
Robb: 4
Jeremy: 5
Sarah: 6
Kelley: 7
Russell: 8
Michelle: 9
Parvati: 10
Could you do a follow up of 11-20? Like another 10 greatest that didn’t quite make it this time?
Michele is one of my all time favorites. What a beast of a player, completely underestimated too. She should've won Winners at War. I said it, come at me.
It's easy to be a two-time winner in a season full of all winners this is why Sandra did it better because she became a two-time winner in a season that had like four winners
True but Sandra was pretty low-key in HVV not in a bad way but think about it Tom westman DOMINATED palau Parvati won and was involved in one of the biggest moments in survivor history and JT won the first perfect game so Sandra really could lay low and do the same thing she did in pearl islands which was fantastic but Tony after his crushing defeat in game changers had to change and that's hard when you're as full of energy as him and considering he was one of the winners with the biggest targets what he did was absolutely mind-blowing so imo Tony did it better but I am not knocking Sandra both deserve the king and queen monikers
@@esdeathisbae9480 I don't know maybe I'm biased because Sandra is one of my favorite winners because she makes it look so easy on the seasons that you wins she doesn't do anything spectacular but that's what makes her wins so impressive don't get me wrong I love Tony and I'm glad if anybody got made the king it was him because before him it was Boston Rob and he didn't really deserve that title because it took him what four tries to win and one of those Seasons he didn't even make the merge I mean it's the first time he didn't make the merge but still his game wasn't that impressive especially compared to Tony who only went out pre-emerging game changers because he knew he wasn't going to win that season so he told himself to go out there and have fun which he did
Sandra and Nina used their time well on Australian Survivor, I can't wait to see Nina on Heroes v Villians next year
Kelley Wentworth game should be more highly respected because she was on the right side of every single vote except when she split the vote in final ten and the final 6 on. she one of the best players ever and deserves to be on another chance on survivor?
I totally agree with your top 10. Honorable mention to Sophie.
Honorable mentions also to Amanda, Coach, Russel (!) And Jerri
This list has someone who came back as a goat and is missing multiple returnees who won and had better story arcs.
0:01 The return of Mogo Mogo boat
I would put Cochran on this list but overall I don’t know who I would replace from that list
Oh also I’d kinda consider Sarah the 3.0 version you were talking about. She really didn’t have a huge impact on Cagayan and was forgettable but she was stellar in Game Changers.
Parv is one of my favs and Cirie is a legendary player to get voted out the way she did is only a way she can.
Howwww is Tyson not here?? His growth from just trying to be good tv to his hubris in 20 and then his grown up but still hysterical performance in BvW…
No Russel?
The biggest thing about the first one is, they are still together! That show is already more powerful than any 90days bs.
Thank you for throwing shade to the Greatest Fan Fave of all time, Sierra Dawn Thomas. lol The shade of it all.
Cirie is my number one! Always and forever! But loved Aubry and Brenda so much! Really thought Aubry would bring it home against Michele..but no clue.😅
Great list ! Special mention to Penner in Philippines and Denise in Winners at war !
you should a Top 10 survivor players that changed the game
i feel like amanda also did a good job in micronesia after china
Great list but where the hell are Tyson, Cochran, and David (Millennials vs Gen X)?
Hey! I’m trying to start a Survivor Club here at college! I’m just curious how you avoid the copy write strikes and claims? I do not want to make money on the videos but if there’s a way to make sure I won’t get sued or channel taken down for survivor music that would be great
Thanks!
I love Michele and think that she deserves a spot on this list, but if you have her and say that her navigation of WaW was deserving of a spot then I think Russell Hantz has to be on this list. His return in HvV was amazing. He made strategic maneuver after maneuver to get him and his alliance of Parvati to the end.
Fun fact: Cops R Us is the only duo on Survivor that is completely undefeated with both players winning.
If you go by alliances then Stealthrus as well
Rob and Amber both won
@@angelat1839 Ok? Rob's still lost 4 times, they are not undefeated.
Spencer deserved a shout as well ...
Sarah is probably one of my favorite winners in the entire show. Also love how we have The Queen of Survivor with Sandra and The King of Survivor with Tony :3
Penner has entered the chat.
Jeremy , Kelly , Spencer are the reason I'm a survivor fan , my first season was cambodia and they were the stars of the show, I always felt like Jeremy and Kelly games mirrored each other and I'm interested to know what would of been the votes if kelly made it to the final 3, I still think jeremy played a slightly better game because I think being on the top most of the game is a better argument then being on the bottom and making it far
Left field pick: Brad Culpepper. Came into the game with a HUGEEEE target on his back, known to be abrasive, manipulator, and loud. He made it all the way to the end and used the same tricks to control his alliances.
Thank youu!!! Bro Everytime I watch Game changers I'm reminded of How good Brad really was..and it's sad it's not talked about. Man had alot going for him.
Fun fact the runner-up prize for All Stars was a quarter of a million dollars honestly this is probably why they've had a happy marriage for so long they didn't have to struggle to buy their startup house CBS paid for their wedding so they were financially stable throughout their entire marriage and when the money was probably running out rub one a season 14 Seasons later giving them another million dollars which is probably just running out now considering he got an extra $100,000 on top of it and you get $10,000 just for showing up to the reunion it's the easiest $10,000 you'll ever make
Video idea most successful duos, think nat&jernmy and amber&rob both won and 1 member got second place at one point
Can you do the greatest retuning players on Bb
if it’s Jeremy vs Kelly in the final it’s comes down to Keith. that might be top 2 final tribal
All stars is a season that people like or dislike but we can probably agree on that everyone was deserving to be a All Star in this season
Loved Sarah till the challenge.
Oh I thought the list was for the first return since the rest are first return results.
Jeremy is my personal favourite winner ( will be overtaken if Jesse wins this yr) but Tony is my favourite player ever. Both are absolutely two of the best returnees ever.
Natalie Anderson!!!
I really miss these seasons man. The last three seasons just don’t come close to these great seasons 😢
Can you have Sandra and Boston Rob so low. Russell and Rupert deserves to be on here too
