Can I suggest top 5 zero-vote finalists? While some no-vote finalists are complete goats, others were really good players but it was just that the winner was a lot better.

Redemption Island happened to be my first season of survivor as I didn't know which one to start with and the name and concept sounded intriguing. I followed that up with One World thinking it couldn't be as one-sided as the last one. Fml. Then came Cagayan and my hope was restored in Survivor.

@@DizzyedUpGirl Galu messed it up by voting out Erik when they were up 8 to 4, meaning they could no longer employ a split vote strategy in case someone had an idol (like Russell the very next episode.) If they just keep Erik for another tribal and vote out Jaison, they could then vote him out next episode and still be up 7-3.

Pagonging’s are almost never fun. South Pacific was my first season but rewatching it was almost painful after Cochran flipped. You’re just sitting there begging for Ozzy to win somehow, and it was basically laid out for him and he still failed.

The worst thing to happen to the men in One World was Colton being removed from the game. He was an extremely unlikable tyrant, but he was the only one that could actually get the men to be organized. Had he stayed, Christina would have definitely been the next one to go pre-merge, and the guys would've been up 7-5 going into the merge.

Pagong? More like... *PaGONE!!!!* I'll see myself out....
I don't mind pagongings, just as long as the underdogs are interesting or the entire episode leading up to the elimination is good. HvV which is one of, if not the best season of Survivor was essentially a pagonging (except for Danielle getting eliminated) and this current seasons pagonging hasn't been too bad as Joe and Mike are both entertaining underdogs and queen Lauren is entertaining as well.

Calling Somoa an earlier season is technically true as it's in the first half of the show, but I would argue it was the first season of the 3rd era of Survivor that lasted until Cagayan or SJDS.
I actually like pagongings, I would like to see a season without tribe swaps. I think that comes from enjoying the team portion of the game more than other viewers might.
It's simple, I see a Peridiam video, I click.
Maybe because I love Boston Robb, I really liked Survivor Redemption Island. Plus the pagoned tribe had it coming for throwing a challenge just to get Russell out. I though the worst case was the one Stephanie came from where the tribe lost so much it was down to 1 person left at the merge. Not technically a pagong, but man that tribe was terrible.

Jeff called them out the first time Zapatera went to tribal council. I forgot exactly what he said, but the essence was "you guys are effed" I don't recall every season, but has a tribe imploded as badly as Zapatera did? Julie was right in being unsure if throwing a challenge was the right long term play. I think Zapatera only won a single challenge after Day 9 BR picked them off one by one and blindsided one of his own twice in the process.
What is worst is RAROTONGING. RAROTONGING is like you are in numbers advantage but you are desimated by the smaller ally. See Survivor Cook Islands, especially the Aitu 4
Love your vids❤🔝
I'm glad you put Exile Island on this list. I actually really liked the La Mina alliance (post merge), even though they didn't stand a chance. Watching them get picked off one by one was so frustrating. They just could not find any cracks, and no one was willing to budge. However, it was kind of beautiful, in a pitiful way, how none of the La Mina alliance turned on each other even as their numbers dwindelled.

Top Five Philip Shepard moments
One World was my favorite Pagonging. I didn't like any of the men. I thought they were idiots for kowtowing to Colton and giving up immunity just to empower his racism. And I loved Kim, Chelsea, and Sabrina. They were the most likeable characters all season, and how wonderful that they got to the end together. Every episode of them mentally outplaying the men (and Alicia) was a treat.
Great video. I was thinking that... Ooh! Flying fish!
I thought it would be the season where one tribe didn't make it to the merge. Instead the last member just got absorbed into the tribe that won almost every time (I think they lost once but that could have been an episode where both tribes lost a member).
It's strange to think the original Pagonging wouldn't have happened without Kelly's immunity run.

I actually liked One World. It's one of my favorite seasons. I know that it's universally hated, but after RI and SP both having the Redemption Island twist, and only like 4-5 people getting any air time for the whole show, One World was a breath of fresh air for me. No RI twist and you got to know almost everybody except for Mike and Leif.

Hey Peridiam, please do a future video on the top 10 alliance, and duos as you did in Big Brother US, and also do so for Canadian Big Brother as well please. Just something in the future. Please make this happen
One World was destroyed by Pagonging and.... by Colton leaving! The pre-merge episodes were super entertaining, Colton was probably a horrible human being but a great TV character, very funny as a villain, and actually had some real power over his tribe. Once he left, nothing else happened in the entire season.
I just get addicted to survivor so your videos help me a lot. im from the Philippines
Hello Peridiam; I really enjoy watching/listening to your analysis. I am an OG Survivor fan, I started from season 1. You forgot to mention the Australian outback pagonging. Incase you don't remember, in Survivor season 2, @ the final 11, they were still two tribes, and the numbers were split 5 to 6. I forgot the tribe names though :(. One of the casts, who was in the tribe of 6, Michael Scoopin fell in fire and was medically evacuated. Because of that the corresponding immunity challenge did not take place, therefore the tribes went into the merge 5 to 5. They went to tribal council, and tribal lines were still strong. The vote was 5 to 5 which by the way, was the first ever tie vote on survivor. They went on a revote. They revoted, it was still a tie except that the people whom the votes were cast on were not allowed to vote this time, so it was effectively 4 to 4. Then the tie breaker happened, which was that whoever received most votes in a previous tribal council would go home. This was when jeff Varner was voted out. Bear in mind that he was from the tribe that had 6. From there a pagonging began. I guess they were really just unlucky. Sorry. I really love to tell that story. As an OG fan you realise how far this series has come. I really enjoy watching your videos peridiam, long may it continue.

Kucha tribe had Mike Skupin. Other tribe wass Ogakor. It was not a Pagong. Jerri and Amber were voted off before Final 5. Elisabeth and Rodger from Kucha outlasted them.
dude, i just saw an idea of a top 5 and I totally buy it the idea of "Top 5 best FTC performances by runners-up"
Usually tho, the eventual winner of the season is someone that wanted it to be a pagong. Rich, Tina, Brian, Amber, Tom, Aras, Yul, Todd, Parvati, JT, Natalie White, Boston Rob, Sophie, Mike Holloway, Wendell, Chris Underwood
Pagoning's do make the show blah and predictable BUT if a tribe can get into that position where they have the trust and the numbers to stick together and knock the opposition out, that really is the best strategy from a player's point of view. I'm so glad I found your channel, I love Survivor and haven't found many reviewers for this show. Can't wait to see more of your videos :)

What about Survivor Cook Islands where Aitu 4 took out Raro tribe?
"A pagong is a type of wild Filipino turtle" I feel so dumb as a Filipino because I thought pagong just meant turtle and wasn't a specific breed 😭
The Heroes tribe needs to be on this list, mostly because they had multiple chances to not be Pagonged had they listened to Sandra the first time she told them that Russell couldn't be trusted and that she wanted to flip to them, but JT giving Russell his idol and Candice flipping to the Villains the following tribal put a stop to that
Thailand wasn't a Pagonging because of the twist - Brian had already convinced Shii Ann to flip.
12:27 Andrea's cakeface is amazing :)
refinding this 6 years later, gotta remark on how ghost island (which hadn't aired yet) belongs on this list now retroactively probably around #5 or 4, and how ghost island and palau are a special type of pagonging that's pretty much only been seen those 2 times.
I feel like One World gets way too much hate. Yes the cast didn't really fight Kim, but she was a force and all those blindsides were very entertaining. I loved it and there were lots of memorable characters. Redemption Island though.....the absolute worst. Can't even try to rewatch it. Just terrible

Nearly three years later, we have one in Big Brother: "All-Stars 2." Easily one of the most boring, rigged and offensive seasons, ever. Production could've broken up the vanilla alliance (Memphis, Christmas, Cody, Nicole, Danielle and Tyler) to prevent this. They did nothing and now it's one of the lowest-rated seasons despite having little competition for original programming and being an "(sm)all-stars" cast.

I mean it was mainly the other no collars, but I stopped watching because I knew that the season would not get better with people like Dan, Rodney, Tyler, Sierra and especially Will. I wasn’t a huge fan of Shirin but she was in the minority alliance, so I was hoping she somehow avoid getting voted out and once she was gone, I stopped watching because I had no desire to watch the remaining players. That season was just a mess and it’s disappointing because it started out very strong. The pagonging of the no collars ruined the season for me. It wasn’t just boring and predictable, it was downright uncomfortable to watch with Dan’s comments and the fight between Will and Shirin that got personal.
Does anyone else feel that redemption island was just an attempt by the producers to give Boston Rob or Russel a win?
How did you know what was going to happen to allow you to skip the episodes as a 1st time viewer?
The redemption island twist was terrible but actually didn’t make any difference, Philip was hillarious and what Boston Rob did was beautifull, imo this is far from being the worst season. Not every season has at least a few good characters, some memorable moments (Russell destroyed, Philip stuff, the final tribal...)and such a great great winner.

Not really... You're talking about the Healer tribe.
Rewatching this video now, crazy to think that 41 and 42 has no tribe swaps (not counting the trails) but no pagonging at all.
7:53 is that a reference to...what I think it is???
The original Pagong(ing) is tragic but amusing, given the behind the scenes stuff that has come out over the years (and I believe Jeff talked about it in his book back in the day). About how Pagong largely just didn't think the show was going to be a thing, so they absolutely were just screwing around, having fun, voting for Jeff, getting talking-to's to take things seriously, retaping confessionals and tribals, etc. On top of that is Tagi actually having an alliance, Richard actually employing strategy, and Pagong not actually even attempting to play the game until way too late. It really sucks they all got picked off one by one, but it's also not remotely surprising. 😂 Pagonging doesn't feel quite as bad when it's a group you love vs a group you don't, but it pretty much never ever happens that way. Which makes it all the more miserable when it happens, when the group you dislike triumphs.
Survivor Thailand is SO frustrating and literally it's entirely production's fault. I definitely think the schoolyard pick at the beginning of the season sorted the castaways in a far less interesting arrangement than otherwise could've happened, and it's easy to picture other seasons (say, Australia) being JUST as boring had they been schoolyard picks. And yeah, the fake merge was a TERRIBLE decision and super cringe, and one of the only two likeable castaways (Shii Ann, who I still believe to this day could've made final four if the twist didn't happen) on the entire season was immediately eliminated because of it. Ugh.
What about Survivor Palau?
And despite pangongings are boring and frustrating, there are still people that list Survivor Borneo as the "best" season better... pfff!
@jorgeraimondososa2438

Borneo is so overrated. Of all the first 20 seasons, i would say it is only better than Thailand and Fiji.
This is why Marquesas was such an underrated season: because it was the first season to fail a Pagonging attempt. John Caroll of Rotu has all the power in the game at the Final 9: he had his alliance of four, plus Neleh and Pascal, and with that group of 6 it was clear Maraamu was screwed. But because of John’s own ego and cockiness, the 5 outsiders turned on the Rotu Four alliance and took them all out. It was also the first season where the final 2 was from two different tribes!
The first season that came to mind was Palau. This might not qualify as a Pagoning though since they basically eliminated the other tribe pre-merge. Only Stephanie was left.

How did you not have Cook Islands . There were only four after the mutiny and then they ended being 4 out of 5 of the final 5 was from that that tribe of 4
What about the cook islands one?
Pagongings aren't necessarily bad if the characters in the story is told well and majority are good characters (which a lot of these seasons were not, other than Panama). Plus it can be fun to see the majority eat each other alive at the same time.
Aw, I really liked One World lol UGH @ Redemption Island. Thank you very much for unearthing those awful memories. :p Zaptera got a bad rep. I liked them, well, as much as I could've liked anyone from that season

I think the more appropriate phrase you should have used is, "probably used a hen in the rooster house"
