Survivor!!!

[New Creation]

Oh boy, was that ever fun! One complaint. The reunion show needs to be two hours long. Too many questions, not enough time.


Well, since I am a SUCKER for romance, I loved what happened with Rob and Amber. I think it was awesome that he called her parents and asked for their permission. I hope that they stick it out and that they find Jesus together and have a lovely long life! Although I do get the feeling that he loves her more than the other way around. I hope I'm wrong.

I really thought Rob was going to win it though since Amber did seem to coat-tail it all the way. But then, who says that that's not a legitimate strategy? People have been doing that forever too.

Shii-Ann just totally kicks butt. I love what she said ..."All's fair in love and war and survivor". Unlike Lex, who whined about being betrayed while doing the same thing to others! I'm glad she won the car! Go Shii- Ann!

I have to admit, I enjoyed Jenna getting kicked off and losing the challenge and then kicking herself in the butt wishing she had picked the rock after all.

Rupert was respectful in getting kicked off and yep, I think he will be winning the million bucks. If the question is "who do you think is the best survivor?" It will have to be Rob for me- If it's "who do you think should win a million $$?" It will be Rupert. I think he will win by a landslide though. I'm surprised that they (cbs) are even doing this, they have even said themselves that he is the most popular player in the history of survivor, so they've got to know he's likely going to win. Then again, maybe that's EXACTLY why they're doing it. People want to see Rupert rewarded.

I gotta tell ya folks, I liked Rob more and more towards the end, and even Amber too.
Jerri made a good point, they're all people, not characters.

Interesting also that they never brought up the Susan/Richard thing. It seems like they deliberately avoided the subject. Especially after talking directly to Sue.
I have to say that I really like that they are sticking with endurance challlenges for the final immunity challenge. Nothing is more fair than basically seeing who wants it more.

This was great fun and I'm looking forward to the next Survivor!! I hope there's a summer season!

Yea I do have to say that I started feeling sorry for Rob when they were going at him. He showed genuine signs of remorse.

And I totally agree with you New Creation! I was so proud of Shii Ann making the comment about "People in glass houses should not cast stones"....she made an excellent point!

 

[wvmtnkid]

I think Amber was more excited about getting the diamond than she was the million! Or at least that is the way it looked. And I have to admit, part of me wonders if Rob is still playing the game. After the hard time the jury gave him, I sorta think he thought there was no way he was winning the money BUT if he proposes to Amber, well......

I don't know. Maybe I am too cynical. And the part about Jerri. Please! Yes they are people, not solely characters for our entertainment. But they chose to do this again. No one forced them. No one made them do this. She knew what she was getting into. And she is one of the better players. But, she got played in the end too.

I wonder where the next one will be? I guess we will find out Thursday!!!

 

[twosteppin]

I loved how Rob proposed. It was beautiful. totally looked sincere. Its cool the Amber won and all, but I would LOVE to see Rupert get this next million. Lex is just like a whiny kid. And I like Shi Ann now, the "people in glass boxes should not cast stones" was PRICELESS!

I've got to say that I really feel that Rob was just acting remorseful to cover his rear. I don't think he has any remorse. How could he? He doesn't feel that he did anything wrong.

I agree that the reunion sow should be 2 hours. I wish they would have talked more to all the players rather than just Rob and Amber. Even though I don't really like them, I thought it was cute that Rob asked her parents for permission and that they are getting married. I am a sucker for romance too! I think Rupert will probably win the million too. But I think I am going to vote for Rudy. I just love him. He should have won the first one. And I think it was Kelly who went against Rich in the final two in the first Survivor. Because that is who Sue said she wouldn't help if she was dying in the desert or something like that. I am anxious to find out about the next one too. I don't know what I am going to do on Thirsday nights at 7!!!!! The million winner was kind of an anticlimax! Now that they are together, it is like they both won. I was surprised they didn't talk about the Richard/Sue thing either. But there were a lot of heated words exchanged anyway! lol I don't see why Lex was making such a big deal out of the whole thing. He was just as deceitful. Remember his "friend" Ethan? He did the exact same thing to him. He is just mad because he made a stupid decision by not voting Amber off when he had the chance. lol at Big Tom too. He was really mad.

 

[twosteppin]

what did happen with Sue?!? I never saw the episode where she freaked out. What happened??

 

[faith177]

Big Tom looked and sounded a little tanked too,

Another amusing part was when alicia voted and said, Rob remember when we shook hands and I promised I would not write your name on the paper and then wrote ambers name down, that was pretty funny.

 

[I'mHis]

I forgot about that part! I loved that. I liked Alicia. I think what happened with Sue and RIcheard was that he was naked ( ) and at that challenge where they passed wach other on balance beams, he got right up next to her and kind of rubbed on her. Nasty!!

I forgot to say, I thought Colby looked really good on the reunion show! I have always had a weakness for him. And Ethan too.

What other people and moments did you guys vote for in the poll. After you picked who you want to win the million, there were a few more poll things. I don't remember what they all were, but some were best villian, best Survivor moment, best fight, etc.

Go back a couple of pages. We had a rather heated debate about it.

Well....well.....well. All I can say is Jenna blew it. If she would have picked Rob instead of Rupert...she may have had half a chance. Funny that she's kicking herself for losing the immunity challenge...but not that bad choice.

Cool that the Amber and Rob got engaged. Can't help it...I am optomistic about when people find love. Even in weird circumstances like these.

Cool about Shii-Ann and winning a car. I felt my blood run cold though when she said "People that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." it was pretty gutsy.

Very surprised at how close the vote was. Very surprised.

I voted for the person I want to get the other million. I voted for Rupert..as i'm sure many of us did. The other catagories? Sexiest guy, gal, top moments, best fight, top villain. Hmmm....wish they would have given a picture next to some of the names. I can't remember exactly who the people were that were in other "Survivors." Oh well...I remember Heidi had long blonde hair and was a rocket scienctist or some such other genius vocation...so I voted for her in one catagory. Voted for Colby in another. Voted for Tommy Fairplay for best villian. Hey, isn't that an oximoron? Best moment? Had to be when Rupert stole the other tribes shoes.

Don't forget to tune in next Thursday to see who won the other million.

 

[New Creation]

Yes, I forgot that little speech that Alicia made! I totally cracked up! It was her best moment!

Wisdom Seeker- too much- I voted for Johnny Fairplay for best villain too- I cannot describe how much I dislike this man- and I picked Rupert stealing the shoes too!

I voted for Ethan as hottest guy- big surprise...

 

[USincognito]

Okay, so what did you guys think about the finale??? Most of you were right!!! Was it me, or did Amber not look like she just won 1 million $? She didn't look very happy to me at all.

OH! And don't forget to vote for Rupert on http://cbs.com! I really hope he wins!

Amber is a soulless automaton unable to feel or express genuine human emotion.

Over all I was disappointed with the finale, but I worked Sun. night and had to tape it. I fast forwarded through most of it and I never watch the tribal counsels (except for the voting) so I might have missed the "feel" that I normally get in the finales.

The reunion show - apart from the utter treakle of Rahb's proposal - was kinda funny. Between the NYC audience booing and the awkward attempts at fence mending, the highlight had to be Jerri leaving. I was glad Shii Ann got the car (and realized this season she's smoking hot) and that Mbr got the million instead of Rahb.

I appreciate Rudy's offer to give half his money to support organizations for the troops, but I voted for Rupert to get the audience awarded million.

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

Yeah, glad you mentioned Jerri. I felt bad for her with everyone booing before she even said word one. The thing is...Jeff said that all the members of Survivor All Stars were there, even some that needed coaxing? Wonder what was said that they didn't let us see. Wonder if that had to do with the booing?

You see?...that's another reason why I wouldn't want to be on Survivor (besides the inevitablility of bug eating)...what if the whole country booed me? I don't think I would handle that well.

I bet Rupert wins. I mean, even those of us that generally disagree on every point seem to agree on that.

 

[I'mHis]

I love Rupert. I definitely think he is going to win the million. How could you not love him? I voted for him stealing the shoes too. For guy I picked Colby, girl I don't remember, villian, definitely Johnny Fariplay. I cannot stand him at all. What a jerk! For best fight I think I picked Alicia and Kimmie. That one cracked me up.

Did anyone else see Amber on Letterman last night? She wants people to vote for her to get the next million. She didn't deserve the one she got!

 

[JPPT1974]

Both Lex and Kathy were ticked off but it surprised me that Kathy gave the million to Boston/Traitor Rob after he betrayed their friendship. Alicia got a huge and big laugh by me as well. Big Tom should had punched that Boston Rob in the mouth that I would had encouraged him to do so. Shi-Ann did look so hot and Jenna needed to shut the you know what up!! That Rob and Amber engagement was a surprise and Jerri, I now feel bad for her because people think that she is like that in real life and she has not had any breaks at all but Jeff states that they are real human beings with feelings. Go Rupert, win the money.

 

[Sign Of The Fish Burger]

If Rupert dosent win... Im never watching Survivor again

 

[I'mHis]

I think Rupert will definitely win. Everyone loves him!

 

[twosteppin]

we find out tomorrow! i cant wait..

 

[wvmtnkid]

For guy I picked Colby,

Me too! Something about that accent and dimples makes my knees weak!!

For best fight I think I picked Alicia and Kimmie. That one cracked me up.

Me too!!! That one had been building for a while as I remember.

I can't remember who I voted for on the others. Was Richard up for villian? I think I voted for him if he was. He drives me insane.

 

[I'mHis]

I can't remember who I voted for on the others. Was Richard up for villian? I think I voted for him if he was. He drives me insane.

Yeah, I think Richard was on there. He drives me insane too, but I voted for Johnny Fairplay. He was such a jerk. But a very good villian!
