Top Ten Survivor Bromances

After a while of trying to figure out what would be a good post for this blog (I have a lot of ideas, but I don’t always know that they won’t until I try to start writing them), I thought that it would be a good idea to sum up the best bromances of Survivor. Typically, they are people who are aligned in some way for some reason that also have a good brotherly like relationship between them. I hope that I didn’t miss anyone that’s important. But here are my thoughts as to the top ten bromances of Survivor.

#10 Jason and Scot from Kaoh Rong: Yes, I hated them, but they were always there for each other even when Tai wasn’t. I figured that they were worthy of the bromance list, but not anywhere high so I put them at number 10.

#9 Grant and Rob from Redemption Island: This probably wasn’t the best relationship. Rob was known to manipulate Grant in many ways and helped to blindside him. But at least Grant was always there for Rob, although I don’t know if they still have a good relationship now that Grant knows more of what Rob was like that season.

#8 Will and Rodney from Worlds Apart: These were people whom others might not have liked that much (similar to the number 10 choice), but they were still always there for each other. I don’t know what else there is to say except that it took a while for them to get together.

#7 Ethan, Lex, and Tom from Africa: Here’s one of two groups of threesomes that are worthy of this list in my mind. They may have been separated for a bit by the first ever tribe swap, but they were always there for each other and dominated most of the merge game, even while dealing with Lex’s crazy ways. Now things were a bit messed up for them at the end, but they were still always there for each other no matter what all happened, even if things fell apart for them at the final four.

#6 Stephen and JT from Tocantins: To think that these people actually made it to the end together was a pretty good feat. They were one of the greatest duos, from what I remember. So many things went right for them that they were a pretty great bromance out of all of them.

#5 Matthew and Rob from Amazon: Well, I can’t remember all of Survivor that well, but I do know that this is a great duo of people that were there for each other. And I don’t know what else there is to say about all this. I wish that I could remember things better.

#4 Malcolm, Eddie, and Reynold from Caramoan: The three amigos did the best they could against the threat of the majority alliance. It’s a shame that they couldn’t do much and what they did do is still a huge controversy to some people. But they were a great group together.

#3 Tom and Ian from Palau: I don’t remember all of why these people were together despite seeing the season they were in as much as I have. But they were part of a core alliance from the very early days of the season and were together until the finale broke them up.

#2 Tyson and Gervase from Blood versus Water: The coconut bandits were a huge part of the season that they played as they got to the end together only for one to be ignored by the jury. The fact that they did so well together was a pretty good sign, even if it was a little lopsided as one was clearly the better player and has the million bucks to prove it.

#1 Richard and Rudy from Borneo: The original bromance is what I think remains the best one. Rudy did like Richard, just not in a homosexual way. They worked with other allies (or tried to, at least) and were there for each other until near the end when someone else won final immunity. But I think that of all the bromances of the game, this was clearly the best of them all.

Well, that’s it for this blog post. I don’t have much else to say so I don’t know why I have these weird closing segments in these random blog posts. Oh, well. I might be getting myself Survivor: Gabon on DVD soon. In case you ever see posts on Sundays, you’ll know why. I still need to work on the Sue recap from the first season that I was promising to do in the past and hope to get it done eventually. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
