This is it! It's the big three-hour finale and reunion show! Zoetawny has made us a new season finale graphic to lend to the party atmosphere. Alas, football has delayed the show here, but I will update this post with the major updates. My full review will be up on TV Squad later tonight or early tomorrow morning. Please join in down in the comments area -- that's where the real party is!
I'm expecting the show to start about 8:30 ET here. Sigh.
And ... it's ON! 8:30 PM ET start time here in the NYC area.
BOB WINS IMMUNITY AGAIN!
Kenny was blindsided. What comes around goes around, eh? Bye-bye Kenny.
Memory walk time. Corinne likes not being nice and Randy found out he can make friends.
Yikes ... Susie won the final immunity challenge. There goes my night!
It's a tie between Bob and Matty being voted out, onto a firemaking challenge. Bob has been practicing.
Bob wins the tiebreaker! Matty is out of it and the final three are Bob, Sugar, and Susie.
BOB WINS SURVIVOR GABON! Sugar got no votes, Bob 4, Susie 3.
BOB also won the 100 grand from the viewers. Sugar was #2, Matty #3.

ReplyDeleteGlad I checked back b4 830E.
ReplyDeleteJust watched Ponderosa and Crystal being there.
GO SUGAR (and Bob, too!)
ReplyDeleteGo, Kenny!
ReplyDeleteVery cool graphic. Zoetawny! Love the colors.
ReplyDeleteBob, Sugar and Matty for final three! Man, I hope Bob pulls this out somehow.
ReplyDeleteTeam Kenny!
ReplyDeleteWin it all!
Im rooting for Bob,Sugar and Matty they have all worked very hard to get where they are....good people too.
ReplyDeleteI cant believe it will be over!
I was watching Crystal get that massage, looked like a nice reward for getting the boot!
Zoetawny, great graphic. Okay, I am here wearing my bow tie, with a basket of tamales and my Margarita machine. Anyone want some? If yest to the Margarita, on the rocks or frozen?
ReplyDeleteOn the rocks for me and pass the tamales, please!
ReplyDeleteHuge delay here...
ReplyDeleteFrozen, no salt here. Oh, I have limes... *tossing limes to Becky*
ReplyDeleteBecky, I'll take mine frozen, por favor!
ReplyDeleteI brought my super deluxe brownies - with or without nuts! Got an extra batch in the oven, if we get a big crowd.
brownies & margaritas - NOW it's a party!
ReplyDeleteANYONE BUY SUZIE! She seems like a non-entity. I don't consider flying low to be "out-witting, out-playing, etc"
(sorry to anyone who has her in the draw, but...)
Clementine, they aren't those "funny" brownies, are they?
ReplyDeletePetals said...brownies & margaritas - NOW it's a party!...ANYONE BUY SUZIE! She seems like a non-entity. I don't consider flying low to be "out-witting, out-playing, etc" (sorry to anyone who has her in the draw, but...)
ReplyDeleteI agree, that with brownies and Margarita's, it's party time!
I think I have Susie. But I am pulling for Bob. Thus the bow tie.
No funny brownies, just straight-up chocolate with icing.
ReplyDeleteKenny, really? You believe Sugar? Sheesh.
Some mastermind you are, Kenny.
ReplyDeleteAh, chocolate, my biggest weakness.
ReplyDeleteROFLMAO!!! Jeff said Bob looked like one of the Village People.
ReplyDeleteGO SUGAR ,LOVE!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome maze!
ReplyDeleteThe lack of nutrition really taking it's toll - you can see them struggling with energy levels.
Bob rocks.
"Where's Suzie?" LOL
WTG, Bob!!!
ReplyDeleteIs' hard not to root for bob.
ReplyDeleteBob, you are amazing! AARP should make you their spokesman, no joke!
ReplyDeleteThanks for starting the update I am on teh west coast in oregon watching it snow hard here.. PDXgranny has alot more snow than me i tell ya
ReplyDeleteZoetawny love the finale graphic will keep checking back
GO SUGAR and BOB!!
Winter storm here. Ice. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI hate that this is our last Survivor party. We have to make it good.
Susie didn't earn her place today...it oughtta be a "gimme" that she'd go.
ReplyDeleteI really want Sugar and Bob to be in the final three. How cool would it be if Bob won!
ReplyDeleteI'm on the West Coast too. I don't know how anyone could survive in snow. I'm freezing in So. Cal! I'm only going to read until the final three, then I will watch it live to see who the winner is.
Now where did Kenny leave his brains?
ReplyDeleteI'd rather see Suzie go first. At least Kenny strategized along the way.
Why do I have this feeling that Sugar is in trouble here. If Matty turns on her, she may be going. Hope I'm wrong.
ReplyDeletePetals not only is it snowing here in salem its only 27° and suppose to be18 over night thinking its gonna be a slick one in the morning. So lets just party to the finale lol
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine the watch party in Bob's hometown, with all his students & stuff? wow. Fun.
ReplyDeleteUh, Kenny? Bob is five times the man you are, baby, indoors or out.
Marcus looks like some 80s tv star - who am I thinking of? I can't think of the name.
ReplyDeleteMastermind Kenny. I'm laughing my head off.
ReplyDeleteoh no! clemintine and I are out of the pool!
ReplyDeleteok. He played better than Susie, so that does suck, but..
ReplyDeleteThe jury is enjoying themselves over the discussion.
ReplyDeleteSNAP!!! The mouse trap just snapped on Kenny, AKA The Little Rat. He played a good game.
Oh, well, Txrednekgirl! We had a good run. Kenny's brains leaked out of his head at some point. Actually, I think his social game took him out, because he wasn't good reading people, so his ego took over.
ReplyDeleteGo Bob!
The mastermind has left the building! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo the next challenge will most likely be one of those endurance things, like balancing on a pole on one foot or something. Bob is good at that, Sugar not so much.
ReplyDeleteSticking with my mantra:
GO SUGAR, then BOB!!!!
isn't it usually just the final two doing the memory thing?
ReplyDeleteDitto, here, Sugar! Pbbbtttt!
ReplyDeleteYes, Happy Finale... I'm watching a half an hour behind so I will comment at the very end of tonight. I peeked and saw that Bob won immunity and Kenny is gone though. WooHoo!
ReplyDeleteHmm... pass the Triscuits, this is kinda cheesey!
ReplyDeletePetals said... isn't it usually just the final two doing the memory thing?
ReplyDeletePetals said...Hmm... pass the Triscuits, this is kinda cheesey!
I think they have done it with the final two, but also with the final three. Can't remember if the final four ever went on the walk.
Do you crack your family and friends up all the time too?
IF Bob is in the final 3, he automatically (so to speak) already has the 4 votes : Marcus, Charlie, Randy and Corrinne.
ReplyDeleteFoolish "strategy" to WANT to take Bob to the finals, IMO.
Oh, and I am going to predict that Randy and/or Corinne makes the questioning of the final 3, all about them. (meaning Randy and/or Corinne) @@
Becky - I can usually be counted-on for some comic relief. My brother is the real comedian, tho.
ReplyDeleteWider, Sugar!
ReplyDeleteThis is a grinder!
ReplyDeleteNO WAY!
ReplyDeleteSusie won immunity. What a disappointment.
ReplyDeleteShock-o-rama.
ReplyDeleteThis may not be soo sweet for my Miss Sugar. It may be her tonight, darn it!
I need another margarita. whhhaaaah
No not Susie, dang where wasw Bob's physics in this?
ReplyDeleteMatty did well in this. I am surprised that Bob did not do better.
ReplyDeleteSusie pulled it out. This is twice she has done it when she needed it most.
I am sure they know that Bob would be the biggest threat.
Sheesh.
ReplyDeletecheesy pofs are ready - get them while they are hot
ReplyDeletemargo
Susie and Matty will band together on this one. Bob or Sugar are in trouble, I think.

Anonymous I think you are right on the mark. I am afraid Bob will be going home.
Petals, here's another drink. Have a tamale too.
Bob is the one most likely to win if he stays. Susie will make Matty very aware of this. And that will break Sugar's heart.
ReplyDeleteSugar even knows it has to be.
ReplyDeleteug. why did susie have to win? hate to say it but matt will have to go tonight. bob most of all deserves to be in the final two.
ReplyDeleteSusie, get over yourself.
ReplyDeleteWow - Bob defended he & Sugar...
ReplyDeleteSusie is shooting her mouth off from her SAFE seat, isn't she?
wait a minute. is susie right? she picks who will be in the final two? she really thinks she played a good game? is she kidding? what a joke. she played the worse. -jeannemarie
ReplyDeleteSweet love in this group, man... It's like about 7 seasons ago when it was a love fest at the end, like a tropical version of "Hair" or something...
ReplyDeleteSusie is the least deserving of winning. It'll be massively disappointing if she wins this.
ReplyDeleteMmm, yummy cheesy-poofs! Thanks, Margo.
ReplyDeleteGreat, here come the Sugar waterworks.
So much honesty. Refreshing and disconcerting and sad at the same time.
ReplyDeletepass the tissues!
This is so funny, in a way..it's like Swiss Family Robinson with Sugar, Bob & Matt, then there's Susie...like the maid sitting there or something...
ReplyDeletethis was a good way to decide this one.
ReplyDeleteGo, Bob!!
ReplyDeleteClem - You're right about Marcus. I can't place exactly who it is he resembles. More like an amalgam of every night-time soap hunk.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU! Sugar!
ReplyDeleteGO BOB!
BOB WON!
Two of those final three are the true most deserving.
ReplyDeleteSusie did not deserve to be in the final three. I don't think she will not get any votes.
ReplyDeleteBob was smart to practice fire making. I think he will win it. I hope he wins it. I think he is well liked by everyone.
Sugar deserves the "player" award if there is one. She really surprised me.
Corrine is such a witch!
I doubt Susie could win against either Sugar or Bob, so who will she take?
ReplyDeleteI wish Matty could have stayed and Susie had gone. But since one of the guys had to go, I'm glad Bob's still there.
ReplyDeleteSusie did not deserve to be in the final three. I don't think she will not get any votes.
ReplyDeleteOkay, no more Margaritas. I mean't to say she won't get any votes.
Jackie, please make sure I am in a cab for the ride home. I don't need a DUI.
i thought when it got down to the final three there was one last challenge and the winner of that picked who went to the jury with them.
ReplyDeletewhen did it become three going to the jury? -jeannemarie
Ugghhh . . . .now we have to suffer (okay, I have to suffer) thru the jury questioning when we all know that Bob is a slam dunk to win.
ReplyDeleteSugar, you no longer deserve to win. :( I know that money isn't everything and you have now made it blatantly obvious that you have no interest in the $1 mil.
Also, thanks so much for taking the drama out of the finale. Plus the supreme satisfaction of having to watch Randy and Corinne agonize between you, Matty and Susie. LOL
Will there be one more tribal council, or will the vote be amongst the final three?
ReplyDeleteThey've done both 2 and 3 person final votes in the past.
They have had three before.
ReplyDeleteHaven't they announced it yet. I'm on the west coast and dying to know???
ReplyDeleteDo we really need 30 mins of tribal council? I hope they don't say anything nasty to Bob.
ReplyDeleteRandy is such a crybaby and Kenny is so full of himself.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteBob and Sugar have to both realize it would be a slam-dunk for either of them with Susie in the final 2.
ReplyDeleteWhat does that lying little rat, Kenny, know about honor?
Anon- we're running 30 mins behind due to football
ReplyDeleteGeesh, Corinne, get over it. You wanna get in your last bitch-digs? Quit already, your act is played!
ReplyDeleteAt least 1/2 hr till they tell us, tribal council (Q & A) soming up.
ReplyDeletecoming up ss
ReplyDeleteI bet Corrine votes for herself LOL
ReplyDeletesusie is not 'confident.' she is SMUG and gave no reason why she should win. bob should win...
ReplyDeleteOh, Petals, it's killing me trying to remember the name of the guy Marcus looks like. You're right, I think he was a soap star first, who then did a lot of primetime tv. Not a huge star, but in a lot of 80s tv.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up, Clementine!
ReplyDeleteI guess being on the west coast may have some advantages. Our shows are rarely delayed. :-)
I liked it better when only 2 went to the final tribal, ugh!
ReplyDeleteDelee said... I bet Corrine votes for herself LOL
ReplyDeleteDeelee, that needed a spit alert. She will tie with Randy who will vote for himself. After all, he dislikes all three of the last Survivors.
Your welcome for that spit, Becky and I agree about Randy.
ReplyDeleteCrystal calling the kettle black!
ReplyDeleteJealousy's a bitch. But not as big a bitch as Corinne (or Charlie!)
ReplyDeleteAnd how many people did you backstab, Kenny?
ReplyDeleteOf course, Kenny doesn't want to hear the truth from Bob!
ReplyDeleteCorinne is a sick bitch!
ReplyDeleteLoved the finger to Corrine...yes Sugar
ReplyDeleteHow appropriate that RAG Corinne wore green.
ReplyDeleteI'm liking Marcus less after that speech.
ReplyDeleteI would say Marcus looks like a young Matthew McConaghy?
ReplyDeleteClem, I can't place Marcus....maybe Parker Stevenson? Or Ted McGinley-ish?
ReplyDeleteRandy! Once a jerk, always a jerk.
ReplyDeleteSugar is very honest! Randy is a jerk!
ReplyDeleteLove, love u Sugar! Not sucking up to the jury one bit.
ReplyDeleteGeesh, anyone but Susie...
ReplyDeleteKenny is very immature.
ReplyDeleteSo, he's bitter at Sugar and Bob (for ridiculous reasons). Will he vote for Suzie?
Corinne wants fame for being the ultimate Survivor bee-otch, methinks. (Not to mention that it comes naturally to her).
Marcus somewhat more unpleasant than I would have expected.
Oh, geez, Randy. Obviously expecting them to kiss up to him, and it's not happening.
Will some of these bitter idiots vote for Suzie?
Okay, Corrine was a bit**, but we knew that. Randy was a bit**, we expect that. But Marcus and Matty? They sound petty. Oh, I missed Charlie's speach, so don't know what he said. Could someone clue me in, please.
ReplyDeleteWe'll know in a few minutes! GO BOB! Or Sugar.
ReplyDeleteI think Matty had a huge wedding and honeymoon all planned for when he won and is just plain pissed that will not happen now.
ReplyDeleteCorinne is gonna spit nails when she discovers that Sugar is a successful TV actress & model.
ReplyDeleteHope it's Bob we'll be seeing on the Early Show tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy Bob and Sugar in the final three. I'm shocked to read that Susie is there too, but hopefully Bob or Sugar takes the million. It would be awesome to see Bob take first, Sugar second, then Susie!
ReplyDeleteI am going to force myself not to read any more updates, so I will be surprised when I watch here on the West Coast.
Think the winner is also on Regis and Kelly. Monday-too.
ReplyDeleteaugh...it's time...who won???
ReplyDeleteNO!!!!! No votes for Susie!
ReplyDeleteJeff had some work done. He needed it.
ReplyDeleteAnd the winner is...as Jeff rides an elephant to NYC....
ReplyDeleteRandy, was his sweet self to the end. Would you think that idiot has issues? What an unhappy person.
ReplyDeleteoops Hollywood LOL
ReplyDeleteThey cleaned up good!
ReplyDeleteAND THE WINNER IS:
ReplyDeleteBOB
OMG, it looks like Bob may get the million. These folks just got out played by Sugar & didn' like it.
ReplyDeleteCan not believe Sugar did not get one vote.
ReplyDeleteIt's BOB! yesyesyesyesyesyes!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that Sugar didn't get any votes! YEAH, Bob!!! Our group favorite won.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Sugar didn't get a vote, either. Or that Susie got three! A lot of sour grapes on that jury!
ReplyDeleteCorinne, Randy and Matty have to be the three votes.
ReplyDeleteEgads! Congrats Gabon jury, you will go down as the dumbest jury in the history (to date) of Survivor.
ReplyDeleteI have NO problem whatsoever with Bob winning, that is NOT what makes them @$$hats. The fact that 3 of those morons voted for Susie over Sugar?!!!? :::t h u d::: boggles the mind.
Seriously? 3 votes for Susie???
Did you notice the sound cut out for a moment right after the announcement? That was Randy yelling "Kiss my a&&!"
ReplyDeletehow do we know who voted for whom?
ReplyDeleteSilk, I noticed it, but CBS muted a bit too late.
ReplyDeleteCorinne had no right to speak of Sugar's late father. That was so not even called for.
ReplyDeleteanon - sometimes Jeff asks them who they voted for, and sometimes not
ReplyDeleteVery frustrating!
He hasn't asked yet.
Same as with AR and driving a manual tranny. Learn to make fire.
ReplyDeleteRandy is miserable. How can he do wedding videos? He is just plain old nasty.
ReplyDeleteSugar saved Matty's butt once with idol and gave him an even shot to stay in with the tie. He could have given her a vote.
ReplyDeleteSugar looks beautiful. Let's see Corinne's face as Jeff talks about how popular Sugar is, please.
ReplyDeleteOh, don't even talk about Corinne. It just feeds her ego.
Someone wrote that Sugar is a successful actress. Is that true? And i hope that Sugar doesnt accept her apology if corinne does apologize.
ReplyDeleteOf course Corrine doesn't regret what she said! Get real.
ReplyDeleteWho was the previous B Queen who was in Australia? Corrine will soon be as forgetable.
I can't imagine Corrine regretting a thing, no matter what she says. She's a horrible human being.
ReplyDeletejoy n said... I can't imagine Corrine regretting a thing, no matter what she says. She's a horrible human being.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Joy. It must be sad to be so unhappy. Randy and Corrine are pathetic.
Clementine, I do agree, the more you talk about Corinne, the more Corinne loves herself and Jeff will just keep feeding her ego.
ReplyDeleteHate Jeff at times but he is giving it to Corinne!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe is actually speechless.
Corinne is a meglomaniac. (sp?)
ReplyDeleteRandy is so trying not to laugh. He knows he is a jerk. Had girlfriends! Loved that.
ReplyDeleteROFL,Randy's a comedian
ReplyDeletePlease, please, don't give Corinne any more fame for her nastiness.
ReplyDeleteSo funny about Randy being a wedding videographer - I never thought of that!
Can you imagine him "celebrating" a wedding on film? LOL
Randy really does have a sad life, whether he will admit it or not.
Hope Sugar wins the hundred thousand!
ReplyDeleteSugar will win the $100,000.
ReplyDeleteI hope Sugar gets the $100,000.00 Sprint prize or Kenny.
ReplyDeleteRandy was actually making me laugh during his interview.
ReplyDeleteHe was pretty funny and Jackie they are going to speak of Ace's "accent".
ReplyDeleteI think the Susie votes came from Crystal, Kenny and Matty. JMHO
ReplyDeleteCrystal sucked at Survivor, period.
ReplyDeleteFLOATER!
Jackie said... Randy was actually making me laugh during his interview.
ReplyDeleteI was laughing too, Jackie. But I think under that veneer is a very unhappy person.
Kenny's hair looks terrible like that.
ReplyDeleteAt least he knows his cockiness helped do him in.
ReplyDeletehate to say this but susie looks very different. she actually looks good. Nothing at all like the first day on survivor. Hope sugar wins the $100,000. -jeannemarie
ReplyDeleteAce did a pretty good American accent about half the time that he was there!
ReplyDeleteAnon 11:09 - I think the Susie votes were Kenny, Matty, and Crystal, too.
ReplyDeleteI so hope Sugar won the $100 and they can show a shot of Corinne the mouth when she gets it!
ReplyDeleteWow, it's Bob's night.
ReplyDeleteBob won the votes for the $100,000, Sugar came in second, and Matty third.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe Matty got that many votes.
Boooooooooo . . . . America, you're the @$$hats now. Well, either you and/or CBS.
ReplyDeleteBob should have been *disqualified* from the fan vote since he won the grand prize.
And yes, I would feel the same if Sugar had won the game and the fan prize.
what's with jeff's hair? -jeannemarie
ReplyDeleteNice of Jeff to give everyone their 15 seconds, but I don't even remember most of these people.
ReplyDeleteI didn't think the Survivor winner was also eligible for the 100 grand, but I guess so.
I really wish Sugar could have won the Sprint money. I wonder if Corinne is surprised at Sugar's popularity.
ReplyDeleteI wish Sugar or Kenny had won the $100,000. I think Kenny's cockiness hurt him with the audience.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the show now in California. I waited to look here until Bob won the first immunity. He is good, isn't he? Of course, now I know he wins and I'm thrilled about that. Anybody but Kenny and Suzie was my thought.
ReplyDeleteYes!!!
It was a great season. Night, all. My cab is waiting.
ReplyDeleteI forgot about Crystal. Yes. she would have been the other vote for Sugar, I guess. Although she spoke to her before the vote like she didn't think Susie deserved it.
ReplyDeleteGood season, everybody! See you in Brazil in February!
ReplyDeleteAnd we didn't get confirmation of who voted for who. Dang it.
i'm watching the end of the reunion show now and think part of randy is an act. -jeannemarie
ReplyDeletecrystal, kenny and corrine voted for susie.
ReplyDeleteThey showed Matty's vote for Susie.
ReplyDeleteAm I too late fro Margs?
ReplyDeleteOY Petals, you were first and Sugar didn't even get a vote. Our curse continues! I would have voted for her. I was really surprised that this crowd didn't give her more kudos for excellent strategies, but maybe they didn't see them and we did.
Anon 9:59 --I'm with you. I was also amazed she didn't give a sharper opening speech about why she should win. It could be called Dumb or it could be nerves or it could be called character -- she would not brown nose to the jury.
I'm glad Bob won, but I was also surprised that he ratted out Sugar a few times. But he wanted the million and his answers reflected that. He gave the answers that the jury wanted to hear.
I too think Bob should have been excluded from that extra $$ having taken the million.
And really, I hope the mean girl gets over herself. SHE needs antidepressants. Maybe she and Randy will get some help (actually we know they think there's nothing wrong with THEM) so they won't continue to spew their damages out on others.
They showed Corinne voting for Bob and Matty voting for Susie. They said Randy was the pivotal vote. Randy, Charlie, Marcus, and Corinne were tight. So it had to be Crystal, Matty, and Kenny voting for Susie.
ReplyDeleteAll in all, a fun season! I do not think the overall winner should be eligible for the 100K, so that was a disappointment.
ReplyDeleteI really, really wanted to see Sugar win some $$, as she handed Bob the win when she wrote down Matty's name and created the tie... Oh well.
Randy is full of it. His whole "mean guy" persona does not necessarily ring 100% true.
But I vote for Corinne as my least favorite, possibly of all time. She is just plain mean at heart, and proud of it. And there is no redeeming quality in that. I think anyone who has recently lost a parent or someone close to them would find her comments despicable. Including me...
I feel sad that Sugar didn't win anything. She's so beautiful. I'm happy for Bob. I wonder if he has continued his father/daughter relationship with Sugar....
ReplyDeleteAs for the witch Corinne, I think she's hiding underneath all of her nastiness. She seems like she's a miserable person and she's protecting herself with this act. Randy is also a piece of work.
I can't wait until Feb. for the next Survivor. My Thursdays are empty now.
I too think Bob's win of the Sprint prize was wrong. Was it Big Brother that awarded a simular prize but qualified it... if the overall winner got the most votes the second highest vote won the "lesser" award?
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Bob was so mute about it, I bet he probably thought it was wrong too!
Hey, Orkmommy! We won! (Well, I guess Bob won - not really us.....) The Survivor Pool was fun! Hope we can do it again sometime! Wish we had thought of doing that during that horrible Big Brother last winter. At least that way I would have had someone to root for - whether I liked them or not.
ReplyDeleteI thought "oh no" when I got Bob in the pool. Figured I'd be out soon. But I soon grew to really like him. He really surprised me with his performance in the challenges. Glad to see one of us older people win!
I think Corrine wanted to outdo Sue Hawk from season one in the nasty speech department. We should feel sorry for her. To be that bitter, she must have had a miserable life.
But there is still something about old Randy I kind of like. He reminds me of a friend I have who tries to act like a jerk to put up a wall around himself, afraid of being hurt. But underneath it all, there is a big heart. Randy really loved his dog - he can't be all bad.
I loved that Corinne had privately bitched to Jeff about not having more camera time. What a rag. And yes, she was probably trying to go down in history as the meanest survivor. I think she failed. She WAS and still IS JUST A WALLFLOWER.
ReplyDeleteThere was no car awarded this year (unless I missed it{?}). Guess the economy is really bad, but hey they are just sitting on the car lots.
ReplyDeleteI agree that a fan favorite $ should not go to the winner. BUT usually it is not the fan favorite who wins. This whole season was different from all the others. I can not put a finger on it, but thoroughly have not enjoyed a season this much.
Hope Brazil is even better.
vw ingly gerund/adverb LOL
whitehouse.gov ( I think)
ReplyDeleteBarney's Christmas Adventure is posted now. Look forward to this each year.
I haven't watched...can't see what I recorded until later today. I had to know, though. Thanks for the great comments, I looked around and found a few left over refreshments, not too bad for breakfast. I will look for the blipped words from Randy at the end...thanks for the heads up.
ReplyDeleteI think Marcus looks like the Dawson's Creek actor..only with a more streamlined head.
I never understood Susie from the first. She stated often she would be in final 3 and she was. Her votes, as I say I haven't watched yet so might change my mind, were negative votes by people who didn't want to vote for the Bob or Sugar. Sugar will do great from her time on Survivor, even without the biggest prize. She won confidence. Although, she might already have had it.
Happy that Bob won... Everyone thought he was going to lose so voted him fan favorite so he'd get something.
ReplyDeleteSugar was gorgeous last night, however, she looked like one of the silent screen actresses.
I hope Bob compensates her a little. Had it not been for her he would not have been in the final three...Matty was a given just as he thought he was. She changed the thinking of someone on almost every single tribal council. She outplayed and outwitted and even outlasted most of them. She really should have won. I love how she gave the finger to Corinne at tribal council when Corinne was going off on her...priceless, even tho they blocked it out.
OK...must now wait a couple of months for the next one. Oh my, how will we all survive?
Gotta go watch Dexter...and then chemo... talk when I return tonight after I work at the club.
Later.
I somehow missed Corinne's vote.
ReplyDeleteJust saw Bob on The Early Show getting his check. He plans to take his wife of 28 years on a honeymoon to GABON! They've never had a honeymoon. Bob is such a kind, modest man.
I am so disappointed that Sugar walked away with nothing. If these jurors had voted for "playing the game" alone and not based their choices on sour grapes, Sugar should have won. I don't begrudge Bob winning and I agree that the winner shouldn't be eligible to take the Sprint money, too. I imagine no one thought Bob would make it to the end which is why he got so many votes online.
Well, on to next season in February.
I did enjoy this season. Even more so after Crystal and Kenny were voted off. Thank goodness Susie didn't win a dime.
Well things turned out almost the way I wanted. I wanted Bob to win and he did.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with the concensus that Bob should not have been eligble to win fan favorite and be the Survivor winner too.
After seeing the jury's questions and comments at tribal and the reunion show I am convinced more than ever of manipulating the editing of the show to influence viewers opinions of the Survivors.
I did not see the behaviors in the final 3 that the jury talked about.
Apparently Sugar cried and grieved almost all of the time but we did not see that.
Randy has a sense of humor which we never saw.
Corrine is not just a mean girl. She is a mean girl who is emotionally void. Anyone who says being nice is not a good personality trait and is boring has a screw loose. She may think being mean gets her noticed but I believe she is a sociopath or at least has tendencies of one.
I thought the entire jury presented themselves as spoil sports and poor losers both at tribal and the reunion show. Maybe it was just the editing at tribal but the live reunion show made me feel that we did not see the true colors of everyone.
This was my favorite season of Survivors in many years. Congrats to Bob!
Ponderosa has some new clips of Kenny and Matty.
ReplyDeleteKenny didn't get the welcome reception he expected at Ponderosa and his ego is still not in check.
Corinne is still kvetching. She HATES Ponderosa. Is there anything or anyone she doesn't hate?
Matty got a better reception although Crystal and Kenny (and Randy to a lesser degree) all gave him the third degree about why he put their names down. Crystal said he was fake. When are these people going to realize IT WAS A GAME! They ALL put somebody's name down everytime they went to tribal. Sheesh! I guess the jury expected everyone would play the game not for themselves but for them alone. Get over it, sore losers!
Crystal seems to believe that Matty will be perceived badly by us because he voted her off. I wonder where Crystal came in for votes in the Sprint thing. We know Matty was third.
We (husband and I) finally got to watch and we enjoyed it. There was enough suspense to keep us guessing and yet our people won at the end. (Bob and Sugar being our favs) If Bob had won the immunity Susie did, the whole end game might have played out differently (of course that is always true, isn't it?).
ReplyDeleteI think Sprint gave the money for good publicity and isn't getting so much good from it. their lawyer should have put in some small print exclusions.
I also noticed that several of the losers (aka the Jury) wanted someone to hand them the game and haven't yet got over it that no one wanted to. Bob worked to stay there and so did Sugar. I still am not sure how Susie got there, except that when she had to win an immunity she did. No one gave her an idol, fake or otherwise, to keep her in.
In other words, I like that workers got in and those looking for handouts didn't.
I am watching a 2 hour 20/20 tonight on ABC. It is behind the scenes at a high school in Virgina as the students audition for a school musical. I listened to some of the audition tapes on ABC.com and those kids are amazing.
ReplyDeleteClementine and Petals - I think Marcus looks just like Travis Stork of The Bachelor and now on the daytime show The Doctors.
