History Funny / Survivor

* Episode 7's title is "Episode Several," in yet another dig at Jelinksy.

* When handing back the immunity idols, Jeff notices that the Nami tribe had added a "buff" (really just an orange piece of cloth) and jest that it's a member of the Nami tribe now. An amused Jeff then cuts off the "buff" with a pocket knife, saying they have to earn it.

* Prominent ''Survivor'' fanwriter Mario Lanza has a [[http://funny115.com/ whole website devoted to this]] for the first 11 seasons where you can find extended narratives and related images. He has also created [[http://www.funny115.com/v2/version2.htm a second countdown]] covering seasons 12-20 and a [[http://www.funny115.com/v3/version3.htm third one]] covering seasons 21-30. A fourth version is TBA.

* Jan has the Auction Reward treemail. Clay wants to know what it says but Jan is too preoccupied by the money and threatening to run away with it. Clay keeps yelling "What does it say?" and finally she reads it and says "I think it's an auction!" before adding "It's a [[LargeHam GAMBLING THING!"]] Clay looks directly at the camera and says, "No Shit, Sherlock".

* The sixth season, ''Amazon'', was narrated by Rob Cesternino. Despite obviously rehearsed dialogue, many of his confessionals are hilarious.

* The entire time the teams are in the village. Really, entire village scene was a hoot. Lets highlight some of the funny moment:

* Ethan and Lex's journey into the village when they're trying to sell goats. Not before they set foot to their village, they are a laughing stock when they attempt to carry the goats down.

* Frank was good for his unusual one liners.

--> "When I first saw John, I thought he was a big time queer. I really don’t know, he seems kinda rough and tough over here, but he does all the cookin', so... I dunno. I won't be sleepin' next to him tonight. Not the first night, anyway."
--> "The General seems like a nice guy, also. He’s big and tough, and wants everybody to know that. Probably got a little sausage."

* [[ManlyGay John Carroll]] needs someone to pee on his hand after he gets stung by an urchin. If that wasn't a golden enough setup, it's 49-Year-Old [[GenkiGirl Kathy Vavrick-O'Brien]] that moves Heaven and Earth to get there as fast as she can for him. Then she gets there, fulfills her duty... and then keeps going, both of them awkwardly standing there for nearly a full minute after she starts.
--> '''Kathy''': Finally when I think I was pulling up my pants, I suddenly got very embarrassed. But it made him feel good. At least I was able to perform in the call of duty.

* Brian may have been one of the most rutheless and focused winners in Survivor ever and played the entire game cool as ice, until he had to ride an elephant and spent the entire time clutching the basket and ready to bail out because he was absolutely terrified. It seems like the only weakness in Brian's game was what happened to him when he won challenges.

** From the same episode, Jeff tells everyone only seconds before the challenge starts that they are standing on the first letter. Somehow none of them hear that and Jeff has to repeat himself 3 more times before any of them go back to get the letter

* Jan has the Auction Reward treemail. Clay wants to know what it says but Jan is too preoccupied by the money and threatening to run away with it. Clay keeps yelling "What does it say?" and finally she reads it and says "I think it's an auction." Clay looks directly at the camera and says "No Shit, Sherlock".

* Greg Buis, every time he appeared on screen (especially during his fake over the top TearJerker immediately following his ejection). His "pick a number" practical joke that he played during the Final Tribal Council of Borneo to this day still has people thinking that Richard won due only to luck (see StealthParody). Jeff Probst hated him because of his refusal to pay any reverence to the show or its rules, and was rumored to have stalked the Survivor crew in the jungle just to push to get on their nerves. I still want a coconut phone because of this guy.

* Big Tom's reaction during the auction in Africa when he and Ethan decide to buy a mystery dish together and share it is easily one of the show's funniest moments ever. It was a breakfast dish, and it gave us a jolly Big Tom [[LargeHam jumping all over the place going all "He did me wrong! I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you... after I kiss you!" as well as "Ham! He's a jew and he won't eat the ham! He's a jew, he's a jew!".]] Talk about being a large ham!
* [[CampGay Brandon]] and [[JadedWashout Frank's]] ''Film/OutOfAfrica'' movie date reward, mostly because of everyone's reaction to it back at camp, and the fact that the two hated each other. Tom said if he were playing a [[PracticalJoke dirty trick]] on them, he couldn't have thought of something better.

--> '''Lex''': I thought they're (goats) going to end up as happy goats, cruising around the country side eating grass, mating or whatever. We saw him with the two same goats making a beeline not twenty feet away straight into the butcher.

* The story of Clarence and the chickens - the Boran tribe had one last chicken and Clarence wanted to eat it, but the rest of his tribe wanted to keep it just in case it laid an egg. The tribe makes an ultimatum - if the chicken lays an egg, it will live. The next morning, the chicken lays the tiniest egg, and Clarence is pissed.

* How soon we forget Magilla The Monkey stealing everyone's food while they're away from camp.

--->'''Rob!Casey Kasem:''' Here comes tonight's long distance dedication. It goes out to Rob from New York. He writes "Dear Casey, there's a mean old man in my life that's about to leave. Can you please play something appropriate for me?" Well, Rob, here's your request. "Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey-ey, goodbye".

** "He's creepy"

* Rob Cesternino tricked Matthew and Butch into thinking that they had more power than they really had (at the time anyway), and telling them that they were near the top of an all male "chain" of command. The spy music and general cluelessness of Matthew and Butch during this scene is hilarious if a little mean.

** "When I saw all the girls being sorted into one tribe, I knew '''instantly''' that [[CaptainObvious we were being divided by gender]]"

** At the reunion, it's revealed that she actually has one of the highest [=IQs=] of the cast, even higher than the rocket scientist. [[BigWhat What?!]]

** The Drake tribe finally put their raft aside while Rupert takes a breather while the tribes are busy buying and bartering. Just then the Morgans drag their raft up to where he's sitting, probably not aware he's there, and... leave the raft unguarded! Rupert realizing that Survivor uses the pirate theme, he quote "This is definitely an adventure of a lifetime. Pirates pillage. Pirates ''STEAL''! Pirates takes advantage." So the next thing he did was taking all the shoes in the Morgan raft (except one pair of tennis shoes) into Drakes. Later, Rupert moves away from Morgan's raft and meets up with Jon and gives him the shoes he stole, which Jon curiously wonders where he gets it.

'''Jon:''' Whose are these?

** The Spanish shopkeeper who wants the Drake group to trade Trish for the goods. Unfortunately Trish was so happy unknowing about that fact while Sandra keeps telling Trish to not do that since it makes matters worse.

* Osten Taylor. He's a buff and otherwise intelligent guy who is afraid of a pelican (nicknamed Pelican Pete by Ryan Opray), constantly threatens to quit in over the top fashion, and sold all his clothes for supplies in a village during the first day, and subsequently became sick because of it.
** Speaking of which, before they set of, after Jeff announces the new rules that they are going in this game with their clothes on their back, Jeff ask everyone for their personal items inside a bag. What Osten puts inside? After adding some of his stuffs... two bottles of booze and [=MP3=] player.
---> '''Jeff''': (After noticing his bottles when some of the contestants laughing) You're really hoping, weren't you?

* At one point Burton just randomly points at Rupert's butt and laughs.

* Another challenge fail, [=LeAnn=] needs to simple walk about 50 feet with a jar of water and win the challenge, the only way they can possibly lose is if he manages to fall down and spill it. Her tribe, for no reason, shouts at her to run, she panics and on her first step trips and falls. She luckily doesn't spill anything, but they almost last a sure thing because they didn't want to wait two more seconds.

* During one reward challenge, Jeff asked if it was an ancient tradition in Vanuatu to drink lava. A couple of people actually asked "True".

* Given Carl's fixation with beer over the season, it makes sense that his story ended with him getting [[StealthPun drunk with power]], both figuratively and literally.

-->'''Jerri''': *Motioning to a loop in the rope* So I put this around my wrist?\\

* The "I will always wave my finger in your face" scene. Less noticeable is that it was started by Jeff, and you can see him running away in the background while Alicia and Kimmi fight.

* Big Tom's reaction during the auction in Africa when he and Ethan decide to buy a mystery dish together and share it is easily one of the show's funniest moments ever. It was a breakfast dish, and it gave us a jolly Big Tom [[LargeHam jumping all over the place going all "He did me wrong! I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you... after I kiss you!" as well as "Ham! He's a Jew and he won't eat the ham! He's a Jew, he's a Jew!".]] Talk about being a large ham!
* [[CampGay Brandon]] and [[TheComicallySerious Fra]][[OldSoldier nk's]] ''Film/OutOfAfrica'' movie date reward, mostly because of everyone's reaction to it back at camp, and the fact that the two hated each other. Tom said (before the challenge) if he were playing a [[PracticalJoke dirty trick]] on Frank, he couldn't have thought of something better than teaming him up with Brandon.[[note]]but he still wouldn't be asking Frank if he wanted to switch[[/note]]
* Ethan and Lex's journey into the village when they're trying to sell goats. Not before they set foot to their village, they are a laughingstock when they attempt to carry the goats down.

--> '''Lex''': I thought they're going to end up as happy goats, cruising around the countryside eating grass, mating or whatever. We saw him with the two same goats making a beeline not twenty feet away straight into the butcher.

* The story of Clarence and the chickens - the Boran tribe had one last chicken and Clarence wanted to eat them, but the rest of his tribe wanted to keep them, just in case they laid any eggs. The tribe makes an ultimatum - if the chicken lays an egg, it will live. The next morning, one of the chickens lays the tiniest egg, and Clarence is pissed.

** Big Tom decides for whatever reason to stick a feather "in mah ass!" and keeps it there for the entirety of the challenge.

* Lulu having a conversation about aliens, with nearly every member agreeing that aliens built the Egyptian pyramids. The only non-participant is Emily, who can only sit to the side mortified at her tribemates.

* Jake telling the other finalists the numbers were "JT, Denise, and Gabler" because of his system to remember the numbers.

* The saga of the hidden lawyers. To wit, Jake, Julie and Katurah are all lawyers. Only Jake is open about it. Katurah and Julie are lying about it. Julie, as she's getting voted out, tells Katurah to go to law school due to her talent at speaking and only learns that she's actually a lawyer at the reunion. Julie then reveals that she's ''also'' a lawyer. Everyone, Jake in particular, are all in sheer disbelief at the insanity of there being ''three'' lawyers on the season, yet none of them actually realized it.

-->'''Jerri''':*Motioning to a loop in the rope* So I put this around my wrist?\\

* The "I will always wave my finger in your face" scene. Less noticeable is that it was started by Jeff and you can see him running away in the background while Alicia and Kimmi fight.

** Big Tom decides for whatever reason to stick a feather in his ass and keeps it there for the entirety of the challenge.

* The DVDCommentary for the finale. Highlights include Rob and Jenna getting into a heated debate over whether or not Jenna would have beaten Rob in the Final Two (to the point that [[CloserToEarth Amber]] cuts in and tells them to change the subject), and all four of the commentators snarking at the various jury speeches:

* The saga of the hidden lawyers. To wit, Jake, Julie and Katurah are all lawyers. Only Jake is open about it. Katurah and Julie are lying about it. Julie, as she's getting voted out, tells Katurah to go to law school due to her talent at speaking and only learns that she's actually a lawyer at the reunion.

* Cirie's trip to Exile and looking for the idol. She gives an amazing confessional where ever few sends she talks about finding the next clue that tells her to go "BACK ACROSS THE OCEAN".

-->'''Varner:''' Shirin is talking a mile a minute. This train took off and I’m glad I’m on it. I just got on it. I don’t care who’s pulling me in the woods-- “Yes,” is your answer. It’s like, “Damn, mama! Slow down! (laughs) I just got here.” And you know, a train will only go as fast and its conductor will take it and she’s hitting the gas… (startled) What just bit my ass?!

* Lulu having a conversation about aliens, with nearly every member agreeing that aliens built the Egyptian pyramids. The only non-participant is Emily, who can only sit to the side mortified at her tribunates.
