The Road to Heroes vs. Villains

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains is widely considered the best season of the show ever made — and it is built almost entirely on knowing the players who return for it. So before watching it, I'm doing this properly: a marathon through the seasons that earn it, following Owen's Survivor Viewing Guide (Part 4, Option A — "The Right Way"). Twenty-four seasons, building through Fans vs. Favorites, ending at the main event.

This page is the tracker: each season gets a star rating, logged as I go. One rule, borrowed from the guide: never Google anything about a player or season — so this is written without knowing what's coming.
