Kathlin Maxwell - Survivor: Falkland Islands - Blood vs. Water

As part of a huge storyline for Falkland Islands, I needed someone to contribute to this game unexpectedly and Kathlin was it. There's always alliances where people root for because they're a minority alliance. Not every minority alliance has a happy ending. But in this game, I knew for Kathlin to get the ultimate happy ending, she would have to reconcile with her brother. Coming up with a reason for the feud with her brother was very difficult. But I managed to find one and rode her journey as far as I could take her. It's the unexpected play by her that gets the nod for this list.

Allen McGee - Survivor: Belgium

I knew I wanted Allen to be a presence and a threat, but in a good way. You want to have heroes and villains and Allen was my plan to have as the hero of the season. But it wasn't going to be the winning hero since Sherri came into play. I was going to make Allen almost like Malcolm in the real Survivor series. However, I needed to up his target a bit, which meant making him demand votes for him or being in a relationship with Dion, which kind of makes sense personally to me. I don't know about you. But all the same, Allen did become a candidate for player of the season and if it hadn't been for Sherri, Allen was the hero of the season.

Ernie Reed - Survivor: Portland Bight

Ernie was the first true major threat to win my first season. This guy started to emerge as a frontrunner from Episode 1. However, a lot of times, frontrunners early in the game don't end up winning. That was the case here. He went from the top to the bottom just like that. But I liked how he had a bromance with Dexter and they teamed up well. So in a sense, Ernie could've been the winner after three or four episodes. Unfortunately for him, there were 16 total that season. So Ernie wants another chance and I gave it to him.

Jessica Charles - Survivor: Portland Bight

Here's the thing with Jessica. I needed someone to be a role where they don't seem to emerge as a true contender because of their game. In Jessica's case, it was wanting to be number 4 in an alliance that already had three strong candidates. But Jessica still needed to have moments. So her feud with Charlotte was vital for me to keep her as a likable character. Without that, she would've been dry. Plus, she needed to have companions around her like Rudy to show how much loved in this game she was. Even though I had to break her heart and send her off before Charlotte, which i didn't want to, I knew that Jessica would always get the response of compassion. Another reason why her is because I needed two homosexual characters, one that was open, and one that kept it secret for a while. Jessica was the one who wasn't openly. She knew she was, but she didn't want to reveal for fear of being hated, which she wasn't.

Riley Winter - Survivor: Falkland Islands - Blood vs. Water

Like his sister, Riley plays a huge role for one of the best storylines ever in this game. I wanted Riley to be the bad guy because of his reputation as a tough truck driver who dislikes his sister. Trying to write a storyline for him and his sister to reconcile eventually was going to take time since I was dealing with 18 other storylines that season. Once it got to the point where they went from having control for the game to losing it by rocks, I knew now was the moment to get them back to loving each other. It was hard to write about the cancer story with Riley, but making him become loved and a hero despite being the villain of the season was right there. I knew I had to get him to be disliked before being loved. So Riley is one of the reasons I consider Falkland Islands to be a strong season of mine.

Stay tuned for 15-11.
