Top 10 Lamest Survivor Challenges

Obsessed with the lack of music in some of these clips. Really makes you think about how different it must be out there without the dramatic score building up tension all the time

[@mrsamfox00]

I would assume that it could be possibly due to copyright

[@GrumpyMustard]

I love Survivor clips without music, the scenes are always way more awkward and funny. Like hearing Colby just randomly start screaming about winning shuffleboard is 10/10

[@abiean222]

it really emphasizes how lame these challenges are.

[@magicwindow6682]

I remember seeing some unedited footage of the first immunity challenge in Winners at War without the music and it was sooooo awkward lol

[@jhornacek]

Most people say the "pick matching rocks out of bags with your loved one" challenge was just a way to come up with a cheap challenge that saved money. But I've always felt that the producers realized that some players throw the loved ones challenge because they know it's death to win and then have to pick who else gets to see their loved one - you always end up pissing off half the tribe, and if you give up your reward for everyone else then you immediately get voted out because that was such a nice thing and they can't let you get to FTC now. So they came up with a loved ones challenge that was impossible for the players to throw.

[@rowan4573]

Apparently Chrissy said she wanted to throw the loved ones challenge, and was not happy when she saw this challenge

[@MuzakMaker]

@@rowan4573 I mean it's Chrissy, she'll complain about anything that doesn't go her way

[@Hasmanian]

They had to draw rocks because there was no time for a real challenge after they spent a quarter of the episode showing us people hugging.

[@jhornacek]

@@rowan4573 A lot of players say they want to throw the loved ones challenge. Cochran in Caramoan (or was it South Pacific) *threw* the loved ones challenge. It was unlikely that he was going to win it if he actually tried (this one you had to do the challenge with your loved one, which was Cochran's mom) but he put next to no effort into the actual challenge. You could see him and his mother walking through the challenge and he was asking her how she was and what was going on back home.

[@zensen1504]

But they still have plenty of players that want to win that challenge. It’s not like they have a whole cast give up. So why change a whole challenge to drawing rocks? Doesn’t make sense.

[@ashen_roses]

"Speaks to how evenly divided our tribes are" Jeff is so desperate to make it look like everything was intended except for Michele's victory

[@aaronjakes6278]

I didn’t realize Jeff didn’t show up for so many challenges. I like to imagine he has the challenge producers explain the challenge to him the day before to decide if he’s going to host it. If its too dumb, then Jeff ain’t coming. 😂😂

[@pkbogopane8003]

Thats what I also think happened

[@theregularterrarian3933]

Fun fact: you can’t be on Survivor if you work in politics. My old social studies teacher was on the city council and he passed every requirement and they were going to let him be on the show, until they found out he was on the city council. He even learned how to swim so he could get in

[@keithprivett3878]

The rule is that you can not be a candidate for elected office during or within a certain period after filming. Otherwise, the show could be deemed a donation of advertising to the campaign. However, we have had Survivor contestants run for office after the embargo: Rupert as Libertarian for Indiana Governor, Eliza Orlins for New York DA, and Nick Wilson won unopposed for Kentucky State House in 2022. (Paschal English was an a judge, but was appointed not elected)

[@unclesquirrelstache7431]

I always want to see stilts again because we never got to see the ensuing bloodbath when the contestants actually reached each other. I love how Tammy just stands in place because she knows Vee is going to fall.

[@TheKYLEdavid]

My assuption would be that any of those challenges Jeff didn't show up to were because Jeff couldn't show up for some reason. I would assume they have some simple stuff lying around for if he gets sick or something the day of and can't attend.

[@rileyesmay]

Probably. They can't just have anybody narrate the challenge, although it would be fun to have 1 or 2 of the players do it for fun, and either the other players vote on who they think represented Jeff better, or they just choose a team who they think will win. I mean big brother does it so...

[@gengarcrobat1576]

It's also possible they chose something that was impossible to throw since many players have been voted out for not taking certain people after winning the loved ones visit. Just another possibility.

[@egmorox13]

I like the shuffleboard challenges, I feel like they give a fair shot to people who aren’t endurance or puzzle strong. I also think it’s fun tv, because person A could be closest to the X, but then person B goes and their tile pushes person C closer to the X. Like yea it’s luck, but I think it’s fun

[@83janica]

I like it too! Literally anyone could win, so you can't rule out those who are not physically fit, good at puzzles etc.

[@handsoaphandsoap]

Agree, it’s fun but it’s also a little unbalanced since whoever goes last will always be at a massive advantage and whoever’s first at a disadvantage, same thing with bocaccia. Maybe they could do those more golfing style where you remove the pucks and replace them with stickers after each toss. Could also do it as like a gauntlet elimination type thing where everyone goes and whoever comes up short is out of the challenge, rinse and repeat.

[@DahliaInPurple]

I imagine a lot of these especially the DIY challenges were results of scheduling or production issues and needing to create something to slot into that space. It’s not really a failing, just the reality of making reality TV, sometimes you need to reach into the back up box, and if something other than the challenge needs to carry an episode, so be it.

[@TheKYLEdavid]

Not sure if this is a Hot Take, but I would love if they brought back the Pachinko Pyramid Watching the contestants put so much effort into what seems like it should be an easy task is pretty entertaining, and there were some pretty clutch saves

[@sillykyle17]

Maybe I'm just weird but I actually liked the shuffleboard challenges

[@stephenpuglisi2946]

Another one that comes to mind for shear ridiculousness? Slingshot Golf in Gabon, although seeing Fang argue over when they were like one inch away from the target was absolutely hilarious.

[@ram010992]

How many times does "obstacle course with a puzzle at the end" have to be run before it's considered lame? I'd take most of these challenges over the repetitive challenges we get now.

[@keithprivett3878]

As many times as obstacle course followed by a throw this at that carnival game.

[@TheMichaelmyth]

The weird thing is that I think some of these challenges could work. Like the shuffle board one. I can't remember the name of the actual challenge but they've done it several times. The spider maze challenge, usually in like the final 6 or so. The one where each person has to do a set of challenges to get a bag of puzzle pieces from each section. Have it be like that but you get the shuffle board discs instead. Then the challengers have to get all of their discs into a set of holes spread across a giant board. Other players, once caught up can try to interfere or leave a disc in the way and hope someone knocks it in or they have to run to pick it up. You really just need to add layers to the challenge. Like the pulling a ball out of the bag. That could be like an entry round into teams for a set of challenges where new teams are picked every challenge. Each person on the winning team gets a point and the first person(s) ti 5 points wins. That way there could be sabotage from a loved one on the other team attempting to help their partner win more points. It is kinda fun to watch the show basically run out of budget sometimes though.

I really hate the blueballing of Fallen Comrades in SJDS when Jeff saw them Using Strategy that he didn't approve of even though half his words are about strategy, big moves, and garbage analogies.

[@diegoprodriguez]

Tbf, you also have to remember production spends a ton of time testing and setting up the challenges and such, so when players wanna demean that, I can see why he’d be upset.

[@ajl9772]

It wasn't the strategy he disapproved of. He disapproved of them already picking the winner ahead of time. At that point, as Jeff said, why waste time "playing" and not just name the winner? I think the challenge can still work, but perhaps they need to change it to the winner and only the winner getting the reward, to incentive more people not to throw the challenge.

[@violetbluejay]

​@@ajl9772 This. Jeff rarely if ever is actually upset when contestants hack challenges in the moment - more often than not he's impressed by the ingenuity. He gets annoyed when contestants *break* challenges well in advance, and this is far from the only example of it happening. Hell, its basically the reason why there's no more survivor auction, since contestants were going into those seasons knowing that whenever the auction was they just weren't going to participate until the advantage came up. It tanked the value of the non-advantage items and drained a lot of the fun competitiveness that was really the spirit of the early iterations we all know and love because half the cast wasn't participating until the final prize and the half that was playing was getting steak dinners for the cost of 5 Doritos in the early days.

@@michaelnolan9416 I think the challenge itself was a good one, and had previously been used in Thailand (with the tribes getting to decorate their dummies). It was the theme and the attempts at cross-promotion that made it lame. The only two times Survivor tried to cross-promote with some new release movie, they somehow picked the most embarrassing movies available at the time ('Gulliver's Travels', and later, 'Jack & Jill'). And also, it gave us the glorious and iconic memory of Dan Lembo sitting in that giant chair.

The stilt one could’ve been fun if it had just been “whoever can stay on them the longest” instead of trying to make it a brawl, anyone who tried to go on the offense in that challenge just lost immediately. The drawing a ball one could also be interesting if there were multiple colored balls and you’d have to pick one to match with your loved one, kinda similar to that loved one challenge in Pearl Islands. Could even make it so that with every correct guess you remove that color and whoever is first to go through all the colors will win, and have a rule that they’re not allowed to speak.

Could you imagine if Cody had to guess who would win with the matching rocks "challenge" almost as painful as what just went down

[@PoisonIvy54]

In terms of what I *would watch:* Stilt Walking is less lame for me than the *flying of kites*. At least people trip up. Much more comedy in that than a kite getting stuck in a tree, or aerodynamic construction. I think that making a kite beats playing shuffleboard for TV; but the playing of shuffle board still slightly edges it with "Cornhole" like suspense. I think the ladder ball beats the shuffleboard for the same reason that I watch axe throwing. In fact, the mud ball challenge makes better TV for a one timer than shuffleboard, though it may be less decisive. Toss up in the long term. Bowling beat shuffle board, mud ball, kite flying & ladder ball. As for throwing a ball near a flag; ladder ball, mud ball & bowling beats that; but I would rather watch kite building and flying . . . _Something abstract and corporeal about the strategy._ As for fishing, probably a lot more slow; so put it second in laughs to stilts; but below preference to most of them. Put the bag of rocks and the least preferable challenge of the ten.

[@graceseeley5354]

[@MrShortWhiteGuy]

A challenge so lame it didn't even make it into the episode. In Survivor: Borneo, when they were down to the final six they had a challenge to see who can guess the closest to how much weight they lost. The prize was a chocolate bar and Colleen won it.

Like the Goats who put up a surprisingly strong fight, or the possible winners who shocked us that they didn't win or at least get more votes.

[@MrMeow-dk2tx]

Some of these feel better for a different gameshow from Britain called, "Taskmaster". Biggest ones I see for genuine tasks might be the stilts one in some way and also the kite one (Of course with much worse materials, since taskmaster is kind of about hilariously screwing over the players sometimes. ) On screwing the players actually, the knot untying one seems like something they would do to a single player, claiming it was a real task, only for none of the other contesters to do it.... Making the reveal in the panel segment uniquely awkward, might even be up there with the flabbergasted nature of the contestent from season 1 who was forced to count how many beans were in a can of beans, spaghetti os in a spaghetti o can, and gains of rice in a rice bag

At least for shuffleboard and bocce ball you can follow along by studying the board and watching people's strategies to figure out whether they should go for the target, play defense, knock someone else away, etc. so there's something to actually do while watching. What are you supposed to do while watching a word search? You can't visibly figure out anyone's strategy, you can't play along because it doesn't keep the camera aimed on the grid, it just doesn't work as a tv product.

#10- the best part were the negotiating and how much I was annoyed at those who complained about the deal who were also the ones not in the mud the whole time (thus should shut up about it) #9 Just a crapshoot challenge that has had meaningful impact afterwards but still boring #8 First part related to the DIY challenges, just a throwaway and could have been cut in the edit and no one would care. #7 Bowling only meaningful has Coach singlehandedly help oust himself with the bad roster he wanted for the reward challenge. #6 Bacchi just angered me where Foa Foa got another loss (where I hate lopsided challenge seasons), but again the best part was the awwkard scramble when they showed up #5 Just an old school funny challenge, not big complaints but i understand it being here. #4 I think this challenge only works in the One World format, but also it feels like something better suited for like a youtube gameshow than a tv product #3 This felt like a challenge that would make sense in like a covid lockdown season (where big challenges weren't able to create) and you needed easy things to do like this and kite flying. #2 I like the Stilts thing more so than other combat style challenges. I actually think it doesnt belong on any list with the other things in the episode. #1. I knew it would be this. I still don't understand why anyone thought this was a good idea. Maybe if weather ruined the challlenge planned, maybe if this was like after a storm where everyone was too tired, or like in Kao Rong following the heat exhaustion day. But there wasn't any factor specific to 35 that made it seem like they needed to make a simpler day. This wouldn't fly in any gameshow franchise anywhere.
