Survivors ready? It's the two-hour season finale followed by the reunion show! Alas, since it's Sunday night and CBS is a %$#, football has delayed the show. Sigh. I'm not sure when it is to start. I believe football was still on at 7:30 PM (I'm not fan). When I checked at 7:42 PM. 60 Minutes was on. So, I'll get this post up for 8 PM but the show won't be started then.
Once it does begin, I'll be updating this post with major events. But the real fun and active discussion can be found in the blog party comments. Stop on in and share your thoughts on the show!
8:33 PM ET and we're finally ready to start!
Duel time! They hve to hold onto a pole. Um. Okay. Brandon played a good pole dance, but Ozzy won. Ozzy is back in the game!
Immunity challenge -- it's building a high house of cards time. Ozzy wins!
Tribal Council --
Rick
Sophie
Rick

Hey Jackie, Penny, Becky - !!!
I have lil pigs in lil blankets, a case of Coors light, and 2 bottles of Perrier Jouet!
*setting-up buffet, lighting tiki torches*
Hiya everyone!!
I have a Guy Fieri Tri-Tip all cooked and ready to slice for sandwiches. All we need is a drinking word LOL If I didn't have to get up tomorrow - We could use a word like Final 3, or alliance or even integrity!!
SueGee on the left Coast
*filling cooler with ice & Coors Light, Setting fruit and veggies trays on buffet table*
Sue - I think we should use the word "final". That's a guaranteed word, whaddya think?
Sounds good Petals!! Are we by the pool? Its too cold here..
SueGee
Pool is heated, beer is cold!!
I am ready & waiting! Thanks for the steak, mmmmm
I'll be back in a bit....keep my spot near the beer saved!
SueGee
Brought Brownies!
ML
READY!!! BEEN READY!!!
Thank goodness, dessert! Thanks ML!
Hey Rochelle!
Did everyone vote for America Player?
GO OZZY!
Petals, Love your profile pic! NICE!
Penny
Yeah nice pic Petals! Go Ozzy!
ML
Thanks guys -
Lounging on leopard-print floatie in pool til show starts
I bought a Mrs. Smith's Deep Dish Apple Pie. I worked my hiney off today trying to get everything done so I could drop in the chair and relax.
I am working on a project for Momma for Christmas. I gathered up all the loose photos she had propped up on shelves and brought them home, evading her questions about what happened to all the pictures she had out. I bought three large frames and am filling each one with one families pictures. I figure when she is no longer with us that each of us can take our family pictures home. I had no idea that it would be so time consuming.... or I might not have done it. I am waiting on my niece to bring a picture of her mother who passed away several years ago so I can finish up.
Almost here!!!! YAYAYAYAY!!
Penny
Oh, I took my two Beagle girls out to have their picture taken with Mr and Mrs. Santa Paws yesterday. Petals, do you want me to send you a copy when I get them downloaded?
Becky, that's sounds like such a nice project for your mother. Very, very nice.
Penny
oh Becky, what a great idea...
Yes, Becky! Thanks!
*Opening chips, uncovering dips*
Santa Paws, how cute! I would never get my 4 dogs to sit still enough to get any picture taken. Especially my mini-doxie. He's like pinning jello to a wall. LOL
Penny
I meant to take Bash for his Santa pic, but didnt make it.
Here we go!!!!!
I've got to see your two babies, Becky. I love Beagles. My Sarah is so sweet.
Penny
Thanks for the reminder, Petals. I was watching my Chargers and forgot to check here. On with the games!
Penny send me your email address. Put Penny here in the subject. It will go to my SPAM file. I don't open mail from someone I don't know. My addy: tfisenberg@aol.com
Drinking word is "FINAL" (we thought that would work?)
Is that ok with ya'all?
LAurie!!!!!
Whooo Ozzy baby!! Perform! Yes!
Is Sarah a Beagle? I will get on topic when the show begines -- I know what happened so far.
oh yeah, Monty will be a lil late, but will be here...
Becky, that's a lovely gift for your mother.
Maybe we will be eating our dinner when the "remember who used to be here" part comes up. That way I won't miss too much of the real action.
Petals, I hope your man makes it back on the island tonight so you can see him for a few hours!
Now, let's get down to business, Survivor!
Thank you Becky!
Penny
Baaack has it started yet? Snuck dinner in so I can have a beer LOL
SueGee
Ozzy called me on the coconut phone - he said he beats Brendan and cant wait to see me again.
And he made paper from palmtree pulp, and used octopus ink to write me a sweet poem:
Ozzy loves Petals,
on the island and at home
The only thing he misses
is Petals in the Pleasure Dome!
And I'm still in the pool with the Cowboy!!
SueGee
HAHAHAHA
Sue, have another beer!
Whooooooooo
*splashing in the pool*
yeeesh, Coach - where is the Zen?
You have to tell me when to take a drink!
SueGee
Coach is such a jerk! Like HE didn't stab Brandon in the back.
Don't go off on thinking you are such a top dog, Oz. Don't count your chickens before they hatch.
let's hope Ozzy wins -- in case there was any chance he would not
I'm here.. Hello everyone. Happy Fanale Day!
Drink when you hear anyone say the word "final"
(or anytime you want to, LOL)
MEB!!!! Hey!
Ozzy is good. I don't mind him being arrogant. It's just sometimes, it does sound bad. ANYWAY - GO Ozzy!
Penny
Ozzy told me that he wins this...but that I need to massage his feet for an extra-long time.
(no problem)
surprised Brandon is doing as well as he is. He's LITTLER I guess
The Oz is in trouble.
Penny - Yup, Ozzy earned his attitude.
THey do make these challenges for the pair - so if Brandon is smaller he might have a better shot at this kind of challenge
WHOOOO!!!!!!!!
My love!
*sigh*
WOW! One of the toughest ones ever.
ALLRIGHT! GAME ON!
Ozzy - YOU ROCK!
You guys are killing me - I can't see a thing
SueGee
So Ozzy beat Brandon? yes?
Ozzy will "come harder". Awesome.
(sorry, had to)
Coach will play his II at tribal. We will see if he stands by Ozzie like he said as a "Christian man".
Go Ozzy Go Ozzy lol
ML
Regardless of the final outcome, Ozzy has played his heart out. He is a true competitor. And a true survivor.
Yes, Ozzy won (natch) !
If Ozzie doesn't win Immunity, it's probably a given he's gone next Tribal. That would be crappy having won all these RI comps to go home as #5.
He played the game and is good eye candy LOL
SG
mmm..... Sue the steak is great!
Marge, I agree, it would be crappy
Boy, Ozzy's got Coach pegged. He knows Coach will not keep him.
Penny
meb, yes.
Sue - Right on!
Our resident acerbic-but-loveable Ozzy-hater is on his way...
Yeah, old Coach is already back pedaling.
thank you KayceeFisher! Have a drink!
Go Ozzy baby!
My love wont let me down on this one!
Whoo!!!!
Okay, where are the guys? Joe and Monty? Out of town?
Penny
Hi folks
damn, Sophie!
Oh no, Ozzy!!! Yikes.
Boy, she was really serious, wash't she?
Say what, Sophie? I don't think that she should think that Albert would knock himself out to help her!
wow. This is a tough challenge
Pumpkin! We are drinking on "final", and there is steak, pigs-n-blankets, pie, brownies, cheese, veggies, fruit, beer and champagne.
Do you like my cocnut bikini & sarong ensemble?
Hey, Joe, I was just asking about you and Monty! Glad to see you!
GO OZZY!!!!
Penny
YES!!!
Baby brings it home to mama!
I love you, Ozzy!!!
Yeah, Ozzie!!!!
WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO
hi Joe
Boy Oz is good under pressure
Yes, Laurie. And now he won immunity!
why is coach looking so bummed?
I'm not an Ozzy hater. I just don't like him.
I just want him to keep it going. I know he comes across as arrogant, but he's fought hard to stay in. It would be nice to see him get to the F3 at least.
Penny
I would like to see the Oz bring Coach down.....
SueGee
I kinda like Sophie, but didnt like her just now. IF that is the real Sophie, then ick. (sorry Jackie)
Same reason I never liked Jeff on BB. Self-centered ass. Not my type.
I need a drink after that! So, FINAL! Drink up!
Ok - if someone here uses the word of the day (Final) we have to drink a shot!!
SueGee
meb,
Who won more RI challenges: Ozzy or Christine? I really don't know, but she won like 5 and never even got back into the game.
Baby, just get a drink & climb onto my floatie with me.
Rochelle, he wanted Ozzy to be voted out!
That Sophie is a total bitch!
Kudos, brains of the operation,I think you may just gotten yourself a seat on the jury.
@@
My sexybabylove won't win make the final 3, but he certainly deserves America's vote.
Ozzy should be kind of arrogant. He's good at staying alive in this game. He just makes some poor choices. I just wish he'd do well. It was just like Matt the last time. He worked hard, too. I think he deserved better.
Penny
Really? Rick has the best chance? Interesting. I wonder if it's the edit.
unbelievable that they (or anyone) still hate Ozzy for being an amazing player. He isnt a liar, a psycho or a backstabber...wtf
Joe, I don't know who won most either and that was a bummer for her too. I don't want Sophie to win... never have. Do I have to say Sorry Jackie too? LOL
Good for Ozzie. I really wouled like to see it down to Ozzie and Coach just to make it more exciting.
Coach is such a snake!
Pool is warm, you guys - jump in!
Ozzy's pretty hideously egotistical Petals. I was a big fan of his, but it's pretty easy to see that.
Ozzie just dug his own grave...:-(
If you have any sense you will vote out Coach. Oh, they should have done that a long time ago!
The best player of alltime is Ozzy. He did it all on his own, no coattails, no flying under radar, no deals or secret handshakes.
My Ozzy has gotten this far this many times for being AWESOME all on his own.
*sigh* and he is so goodlooking.
(sorry punkin)
I don't understand why they keep the old Survivors around past the first couple of weeks! They seem to be drinking the koolaid or something!
SG
Rochelle, I know - but IMO he deserves to have the attitude. Its all he has. He is the only one on his side (on the island).
That necklace looks so good on him, whew!
Gosh, Ozzy, you just doomed yourself. Really, you did...
I USED to be pulling for Sophie.
I think Ozzy should win for outplaying
wow, Ozzy, bring it! Whooo!!!
Arrogant or not, my man is right.
Honestly, Petals, for you it comes down to "he's good-looking". Period.
Is Ozzy a good athlete. Yes? Is he a good social player? No. Is he a good strategist? No. He may be the best physical competitor of all time but I don't think that makes him the best player of all time. I think Parvati, for one, is a better overall player.
Becky, right? Me too, but when she finally opened her mouth. she turned out to be a huge biotch.
You are so right SueGee. Why would you keep the ones who have played over and over.
Petal, you are so right. Ozzy has fought hard to stay in.
Sophie, your teammates have even thought about taking you out. It hasn't just been Ozzie. Toughen up.
Penny
Sophie needs to remember the last vote where she only beat out Brandon by a vote!!
SueGee
Joe, you're using my "real" life against me. It isn't all about looks.
Yes, Ozzy is totally gorgeous. BUT he is also an amazing player.
Dont hang Ozzy out to dry just because he is pretty. He has earned more than that.
SueGee and NickelPeed,
As Jeff himself has pointed out on his blog, veteran players are a tremendously useful resource in this game. The trick becomes using them for all they have and then knowing when to cut them loose. The problem is, they aren't necessarily veterans vs. newbies after a while. You are a tribe. You are friends. You are playing your own game and they are your ally. I think it is way too easy to underestimate that. For us they are characters on the TV. For them they are part of their life and their game.
Okay, they didn't show anyone else having their name written down. The was CBS likes to mislead us it sounds like Sophie will be safe!
OHHHHHH. SO they are going to have ACTUAL contenders, all, in the f-3 for once. This will be great!
I'm ready for a amaretto coffee can I make one for anyone else?
Whipped or no?
SueGee
Rick can be mad at Coach all he wants, but Coach either had to cut Sophie loose or Rick. Either way they had to feed on their own.
Told you so!
well, there goes all the hurt feelings. You'd think they all would know by now, not all can win this. Wow. I do believe they've put a fire underneath Sophie tho.
Penny
Coffee please, SueG. Yes to whipped cream.
None for me SueGee- but thanks :-)
Sue, whipped! thank you :)
Guess it's time for me to whip out my famous final three fruit tart, with home made vanilla bean ice cream. Who wants some?? And does that go with the drinking game?
everyone left has on immunity
but has coach won one
I understand what you are saying Joe. I know someone that was on the show and then on an all-star and the all stars didn't let him stay around long at all! He said that no one wanted to play with him any more LOL
SueGee
I'm kinda pissed. I really dont understand how anyone can't love Ozzy.
Yes, I am also hormonal, and I am how I am...sorry. :(
this has been a hard month.
just venting.
xoxox
thx Becky
That's a good point Petals - but isn't he like that in real life too? Innocent question!!
Sue - WHO??? Can you say?
I LOVE amaretto coffee - get a wide awake buzz LOL
SueGee
look at my baby - up early and working.
Your all making me hungry! LOL
I am so glad I could be here. I had to talk my husband in to leaving to go to his home tomorrow morn. I don't have Internet there and there's only one TV. I could watch it, but everyone talks so much, I can't hear! LOL
Penny
has coach gone more gray in the last 30 days???
Petals - remember someone that gave away the truck? Yau-Man
SG
I made it to the party!!! What have I missed, lol?
Okay, now Coach is starting to crawfish!
Coach's hair color washed out??
Rochelle,
I dont know how he is in real life (all playing to the contrary).
I just know that he kicks ass, and he gets shit on for it.
Even if he werent handsome, I'd feel for him, because he works&wins, works&wins, works&wins...and still gets hated.
But I am kinda emotional lately.
*glugging from drink*
Glad you could stay, Penny.
Come on Oz!
Boy, they are not being nice, are they? Does Coach really believe Ozzy believed him? This is a game where you just do not trust people.
I still do not see Ozzy getting further. I really did not want it to be so predictable, but it is.
Penny
Monty!!!!!
hey.
Ozzy told me that he doesnt do very well in this challenge, but I am screaming for him all the same.
OOOOOZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
He should be happy to have such a loyal fan Petals!
I don't care what Ozzy looks like, Petals, you do. I'm not hanging him out to dry at all. I don't like him because he's a self-centered ass. Period. I don't like him. I respect his physicality as I said, but that's the end of it for me. He has no game beyond that and some of his "moves" were downright pathetic. Choosing to go to RI because they needed to get out Christine? Really, after she flipped off her old tribe. The whole Cochran double-agent gambit. The speeches that even Coach saw through in like 2 minutes.
Great physical competitor. One of the best ever along with Boston Rob (whom I also never liked for his arrogance, by the way). But Boston Rob was a much better social/strategic player.
Off the top of my head if I'm listing the greatest Survivor players of all time, I put all of the following above Ozzy (and maybe others):
Parvati
Russell
Boston Rob
Richard Hatch (taught everyone how to play)
Sandra
Brian Heidik (most arrogant ass ever)
Tom Westman
Terry Dietz
Yul
Todd Herzog
Shit, I hate how they always manage to show the ladies crotches in these challenges when they wear their suits
Interesting if it were Albert, Sophie and Ozzy in the f-3
Clearly this is why I love tennis: this is far too unpredictable.
I'm a Scorpio, I hate NOT knowing what is gonna happen. LOL
drank 3x for "final"
YES!
I've actually been amazed at how good Coach has been in challenges. I don't remember him actually being that good before.
woah sophie!
she's a formidible opponent
This is a nail bitter. Come on Ozzy
I'm guessing Sophie is voting for Ozzy to go. LOL
Looks like Oz is gone!
Joe, stop.
Let me love him.
Now Coach is acting like he's so part of the three? Poor OZzy looks like he's going to cry
and with good reason. He deserves to be at the end
Dang it. By Ozzie. Darn. Now we know.
:-(
Penny
oops, Bye Ozzie
Yay, Sophie!!
Yeah Ozzy goes.
But he will win America's Player.
I tried to vote for Ozzie as America's player last week, but CBS would not let me vote! They kept saying my password did not match the name. I changed the password several times, got the same message every time.
You know Coach will vote for Ozzie to go.
Joe, I loved Yul. That was the season that got me totally hooked on Survivor. He showed how to use the idol in NOT USING the idol.
I don't know about your list, Joe.
Some of the best players were not winners. I really do not see Boston Rob as one of the all time best. He really wasn't. Other people's stupidity gave him a win.
I would definitely agree with Richard Hatch, being the first. The others, I don't know.
Haha, Coach relinquishes the Dragon Slayer title!
Give me an effing break
"bad guy"??? How???????
GRrRRR!
(trying not to get upset)
Ah, yes, Coach, yes, team, knock Ozzie down. Feel good. Yes, you all beat him. He's been beat before, so none of you are unique.
Penny
I'm figuring the group will vote to Sophie, regardless who's going to be with her in the final three.. Albert doesn't deserve it if he's in F3, and people equally don't like Coach or Ozzie. MHO of course.
I'm finally home!!
Rochelle, I would love some of the tart with lots of vanilla bean ice cream. I'm sure it's exactly what I need tonight!
Is the Oz really out?
Oh, Coach, stop playing to the camera. We all KNOW what you will do!
I love Coach this time around. He was always good for the blog, but I actually really like him. No offense to Petals and the other Ozzy pool players, but he needs to vote him out tonight.
Coming right up Laurie -
Margo - FINALLY! Jump in! the water's fine!
It's all in their heads, Petal. Instead of going after each other, they have made Ozzie the target. Look at it as a compliment for them to think Ozzie as THE player to beat. It IS a compliment! They think he's the dragon. Dragons are tough and powerful. THAT IS Ozzie.
Hi MEB!!!
I am just now getting to read back a little
Speaking of Richard Hatch - he got out of jail again this week and was posting on FB that he is sooo innocent! That first season was great wasn't it? Before everyone got into "playing the game"
SueGee
Laurie, Coach had given Oz his word as "a Christian man" and told the camera that when he did that his word was his bond.
Oz did not win immunity, so he is on the line. Now Coach is saying Ozzie "betrayed him.
Honestly, anyone who doesn't vote Ozzy out doesn't deserve to win. The jury is all former allies of Ozzy.
Oz told him that if Coach means what he always says, then let it go down to making fire against Albert. Sophie won immunity.

I, too, think Sophie will win this. I don't like her attitude towards the end, but I do think the jury members will NOT vote for Coach or Albert. I think Sophie has done enough for the win.
Hi Margo!
*paddling over to side of pool*
The drinking word is: FINAL
(petals loves ozzy)
(and Joe)
I guess I have to say GO ALBERT!
He is my Avatar and my pool pick.
Boston Rob (much as I don't like him) ranks as one of the best even before winning. He learned to play socially (and less arrogantly) over time. He was always maybe the best puzzle solver ever and as good a physical competitor as Ozzy.
My list isn't all winners. Terry Dietz didn't win. Russell didn't win. And even a couple of winners were also losers. Those were just a few I pulled out from memory and a list of winners. I also thought they were less controversial than choosing someone who played once and finished 5th as one of "the greats".
I'm not even saying those are definitely all the best. They are simply all players I would rank above Ozzy...even if he ended up winning tonight.
Ozzie, you did it again....
If Ozzy gets to final 3, he wins unanimously.
Of the other 3, Albert I think has no chance. Coach will win if they feel Sophie road his coat tails. Sophie wins if they are all mad at Coach
Thanks Margo!
SueGee
