Quoted from mkecasey:I'm currently watching my first season of Survivor. I looked up a list of good seasons for a first time viewer and landed on Season 17. I mostly watch Big Brother but decided to branch out and give Survivor a shot. So far I am enjoying this season.
As someone who has seen every single episode, there are no real bad seasons I can think of. The game has changed and evolved over time and I'm guessing some of the older seasons at this point would seem quaint, but it's been amazing to me how fresh and engaging the show has remained.
You've got lots of content, so enjoy!
