Sugar is an icon because she lowkey didn't give a shit about winning and just wanted to ensure her favourite person won. Like imagine having the power to pick the winner.
This was probably the closest vote in the show’s history. Bob had the three original Kotas locked, as did Susie with her three Fangs. It all came down to Randy, who hated both of them equally.
He really didn't want to vote for Susie because I think he hated her more than Bob. I don't think he even hated Bob, he was just mad that Bob played him. If Bob didn't own that move and apologize to Randy and tell Randy that he yelled at Sugar for laughing when they got back to camp, Susie would have won
I will never stop loving Gabon. It is most defnitely bad but in the funniest way possible. I love Crystal just screaming in the voting confessional for Randy in Episode 9 haha
Gabon is iconic and I loved every minute. I was also amused by Matty as well because in any other season, he would have thrived but in Gabon, he was wrecked and had his craziness come out just by existing in the tribe. His facial expressions every episode were comically desperate - you could see his soul slipping out with every elimination lol.
Gabon is honestly one of my favorite seasons. And Bob is my favorite survivor ever. He reminds me so much of my chemistry teacher who builds stuff, is an outdoorsman oh and is from Maine (albeit my chemistry teacher moved here to Kentucky to teach).
This season was a trainwreck, but what a hilarious trainwreck it was. And to cap it off, you have Bob, the winner with arguably the worst final tribal for a winner ever. Marcus got screwed over by the 2nd swap. If Kota lost, Susie goes, and if Fang lost Matty probably goes, and then Marcus probably makes the Final 3 with Charlie and Corinne, and wins pretty handily
It all went wrong when Corinne didn't want to vote out Susie the second time Kota had to go to tribal council. She thought Susie wouldn't flip and convinced everyone to get rid of Dan instead. Even though she didn't like Dan, he would have been more loyal than Susie. If they kept Dan and he took her place in the second swap, I think he would have stayed loyal to Bob and Marcus and Kenny would have been voted out instead.
Don’t forget that in true Gabon fashion, the 2 most deserving returnees haven’t come back (Kenny and Matty) while Sugar and Randy freaking Bailey made Heroes vs Villains.
Of course Randy had to come back for Heroes vs. Villains! I think they brought Sugar back because they could pit her against Randy as a hero and because of how well she did and how far she got. I don't think they were expecting her to be a first boot.
In today’s game, I think Sugar would have won this season unanimously. She wasn’t great at the end with the jury, but she knew they didn’t like or respect her.
as someone who watches super smash bros competitve for years and also recently binging survivor for the first time, when I saw Ken here I was so surprised, but damn he didnt disapoint, imo he played very good and its a shame he never was brought back
Yes, that ball game on the hill was cool. Ace poked his eye. Then Randy said "Freeze Ace," and the ball went passed him. Don't remember if that was the ball that won it for Randy's tribe.
Yeesss, Merry Christmas to me!! My messy ass loves the trainwrecks, Gabon has always been god tier and this perfectly encapsulates why.. that handheld, slingshot, golfing challenge is fuckin' iconic, not to mention Marcus hangin' dong in an early challenge. 😹😹
Haven't watched the full season, but i have to ask, how did Randy and Sugar return over Matty and Kenny, and also why was Sugar a Hero, when all the clips of her in Gabon seems to show her as a spoiled brat
Of course Randy had to come back for Heroes vs. Villains! I think they brought Sugar back because they could pit her against Randy as a hero and because of how well she did and how far she got. I don't think they were expecting her to be a first boot.
What a perfect ending to Randy. He started out a grumpy old man and ended his story as a grumpy old man, who now hates everyone. Truly, Gabon is the season that keeps on giving.

It's impressive bc despite not being a juror she still essentially guaranteed Bob's win
If she wanted she could've bad mouthed Susie and just gave Bob even more praise.
This was probably the closest vote in the show’s history. Bob had the three original Kotas locked, as did Susie with her three Fangs. It all came down to Randy, who hated both of them equally.
Exactly she's a queen

Agreed
it's what most people think survivor is like in the most hilariously camp way
Gabon is iconic and I loved every minute. I was also amused by Matty as well because in any other season, he would have thrived but in Gabon, he was wrecked and had his craziness come out just by existing in the tribe.

You can’t describe him, Bob is just, Bob! & Randy is such an underrated hilarious villain!

Chris Underwood is a much worse winner than Bob. At least Bob played 39 days.
Gabon is the season that got me into Survivor. So yes this train wreck made me a fan
Ah yes the Hell's Kitchen 8 of Survivor
Hahaha yes!
Couldn’t have said it better myself
This is honestly one of my favorite seasons. This was back when you had to actually worry about surviving and even dangerous wildlife.
Didn’t an elephant nearly crash one of the tribe’s camp?
Don’t forget that in true Gabon fashion, the 2 most deserving returnees haven’t come back (Kenny and Matty) while Sugar and Randy freaking Bailey made Heroes vs Villains.
Hey Randy was a Villain, and quite a funny Villain at that
@@totaldramatyler4484Randy wasn't a villain. He was antihero imo, especially after seeing those "extra" scenes. The main cut did him kinda dirty.
Matty was asked back in an unknown season but he declined
Kenny was an alternate for Heroes vs Villains and cut from Blood vs Water
Of course Randy had to come back for Heroes vs. Villains! I think they brought Sugar back because they could pit her against Randy as a hero and because of how well she did and how far she got. I don't think they were expecting her to be a first boot.

I never knew how much I would enjoy a survivor recap, till now. Cheers.
as someone who watches super smash bros competitve for years and also recently binging survivor for the first time, when I saw Ken here I was so surprised, but damn he didnt disapoint, imo he played very good and its a shame he never was brought back
Ken deserves to come back. I have wanted to see him play again since this season ended
He should come back for Season 50 now that he's older and more mature!
The season of Survivor that made me an survivor fan ☺️♥️

That does not answer my question in the slightest.
Yes, that ball game on the hill was cool. Ace poked his eye. Then Randy said "Freeze Ace," and the ball went passed him. Don't remember if that was the ball that won it for Randy's tribe.
It was, that's why he told Ace to freeze so the ball could go past him
Yeesss, Merry Christmas to me!!

I actually like Gabon as a whole even tho the toxicity between players was on a monumental lvl 8/10 season
My fav voting confessionals. Funniest shi
One of the most iconic season.
17:10 Why was the copyright just for the Kenny blindside?
This was a great season as I remember it lmao
Survivor Gabon they could never make me hate you
This season was the biggest mess out of any season in survivor history
Needs more elephant dung!
Haven't watched the full season, but i have to ask, how did Randy and Sugar return over Matty and Kenny, and also why was Sugar a Hero, when all the clips of her in Gabon seems to show her as a spoiled brat

lmao the "game nerd" kenny i love it. he is the king i mean he is a legend not just some basement dweller lmao
gotta love randy
One of my all time FAVORITE survivor seasons & favorite winners yet!
Dan is an eye candy 🍭
Unfortunately he died already 😢
Where to find season 17 gabon ?? Without having to pay
I still like the season, I don't know what's wrong with me.
Ace and his fake accent ☠️
"ALL THREE OF YOU CAN KISS MY..."
What a perfect ending to Randy. He started out a grumpy old man and ended his story as a grumpy old man, who now hates everyone.
Truly, Gabon is the season that keeps on giving.
Randy and Rory need to be on a season together as the two grumpy old men!
At least its not Fiji
Favorite season!!
