Season one is not a patch on the Australian series. Much smaller numbers of players which make it feel like the teams have reached swop.
No immunity idols means no twists, all very predictable at voting time.
Challenges don't seem as difficult, nothing went on for very long and no final endurance which is the wow factor of how people endure pain for me. Some treats along the way but not as impressive. For me I'd have thought this series was the first ever and producers were singing their feet. Very weak. Still watched it all though.
