Survivor Reality Showdown

It wasn’t that long ago when The Amazing Race did and aired a season that pitted former Amazing Race players with teams from Survivor and Big Brother. Now I’m starting to wonder if that same thing could be applied to a Survivor season. It would start with three tribes. One is full of returning players from Survivor. One has players from The Amazing Race. And the other would have Big Brother players.

Rules: I’ve decided that a player from each of the show’s first seasons has to be represented in this list. Also, it only seems fair to me to include a winner from each to see how they would fair again. I would have to split up people from The Amazing Race so I hope that I picked someone who best represents their team. I’m not picking anyone who has already done multiple shows. None of these contestants are from the same season as each other. I’m also trying to pick at least one iconic member of each show as best as I can. Each tribe has three men and three women. Also note that I’m guessing what I think are the best choices for The Amazing Race and Big Brother based on what fandom tells me as, while I have seen both shows, I’ve missed a lot of them too.

Let’s start with the Survivor tribe of six. I would go with Richard from Borneo and All-Stars since he is the first winner and one of the most recognizable players from the game. Next, I’d pick Burton from Pearl Islands as he still has a lot to prove as a player. Coby from Palau is my next pick as I know that he has been wanting to play again for a while. Natalie from Micronesia is a great player and represents this show quite well. Ashley from Redemption Island may be a strange choice, but I feel that she would work out well here. Katie from Blood versus Water is my last pick as she would prove a nice player.

Next is The Amazing Race tribe of six. I would pick Margarita Mesa from The Amazing Race 1, Jonathan Weiss from The Amazing Race 4, Kim McAllister from The Amazing Race 5, BJ Averell from The Amazing Race 9, Kate Lewis from The Amazing Race 12, and Luke Adams from The Amazing Race 14, Unfinished Business, and All Stars 2014. I’m not going to explain why I’m picking all of them and instead will just say that I think they would work.

If you want more information as to why I’m picking people from this group, look at a previous post called Big Brother players on Survivor and most of these people are on that list as well along with an explanation as to why I feel that way about them. Anyways, the Big Brother tribe of six would be Cassandra Waldon from Big Brother 1, Michelle Maradie from Big Brother 4, Matt Hoffman from Big Brother 12, Daniele Donato from Big Brother 8 and 13, Ian Terry from Big Brother 14, and John McGuire from Big Brother 17.

That’s all that I can think of including for this post. Would you want to see a season of Survivor like this? Do you think that the players from the other shows would have a chance? Would it seem bad if they did this with The Amazing Race but at least not Survivor? Well, you can say something or nothing. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
