How this list works: Every charter is summarized from episode recaps. We rate each group 1–5 on how demanding, fun and chaotic they were and how much the crew liked them, add the tip, and count mentions in press rankings (Collider, Screen Rant, Showbiz Cheat Sheet and others). Each list says which of those it weighs most.
