Survivor: Caramoan - Season Finale and Reunion Show Blog Party
Welp, this is it. We're down to five castaways and the promos hint that one will leave in a medical emergency. I've got different scenarios running through my head as I think of each one leaving. For some reason, I'm thinking it might be Sherri or Erik. But I could be totally off base there -- I have no spoilers info as I haven't searched any out this season.
We all know that things will get shaken up if Eddie wins Immunity. However, for a buff kind of dude, he hasn't really performed well during the challenges. I guess we'll see! As the show airs, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page often to get the latest news.
But, as always, the real party is in the comments. Come join us! Bring snacks and beverages, too!
Oh my. I'm right about it being Erik. His head is spinning since leaving Tribal Council. The medic pulls him from the game -- dehydration and starvation. (Meanwhile I'm hearing ice cream truck music from outdoors which is way incongruous with what's happening on the show.)
Reward challenge has them balancing while building a house of cards. The winner gets an advantage in the final immunity challenge. Cochran wins the advantage in the final immunity challenge! Woohoo!
Dawn, of course, is freaking. While she can do well in challenges, she's a basket case so often at other times that it makes her her own worst enemy. Cochran is tired of her.
Rites of passage. I wonder how they'll come of with good words about Brandon. Okay, he's still delusional and claiming he was the author of his own elimination. While he was, it was a stupid story indeed!
The final Immunity Challenge has them racing up a tower, getting bags of puzzle pieces in multiple trips and completing a puzzle. Cochran's advantage is that he doesn't have to untie his bags while the others have to untie the three bags. Okay.
Cochran is screwing up his advantage and Dawn is in the lead. Now he's catching up. Eddie is in last place. Cochran steams ahead ... COCHRAN WINS FINAL IMMUNITY!
He's planning on bringing Sherri to the end because he's sure he can beat her. He's in a quandary over the other two. Time to vote!
The tally -- Dawn, Eddie, Eddie, Eddie. The final three are Cochran, Sherri and Dawn.
The three get to plead their cases in front of the jury. Dawn is feeling humble and tells how hard the game was for her. She explains her strategy and is proud of her game. Sherri tells about her marriage, children and her successful business. She thinks she became very pliable and worked to get in with everyone. Cochran talks of half his life following the show and his obsession with it. He thinks his timing has been right and wants to prove why he's played the best game.
Jury time ...
Malcolm -- Not bitter, no question for Sherri. His vote is between the other two. Dawn -- Best friend, you played cold-blooded, you have to own it, can't be warm mom, fight for it. Cochran -- What quality do you have that I don't have? Cochran says his insecurity had him taking out people with plans.
Eddie -- Sherri, willing to admit carried to final 3? Nope! Dawn -- Strong claims, weaker than others, daily routine. She's taking Malcolm's advice. Cochran -- where are you going from here? He'll be at the bar with them!
Phillip -- Congrats to all. Sherri, strategic join with favorites, he removes her from StealthRUs. Dawn -- talks of his intolerance with her crying and excuses. He won't cast a vote. Cochran -- played a strategic game, enjoyed it, class act.
Erik -- Dawn - Thought we shared something, you crushed it with vote for Brenda. She once again takes Malcolm's advice. Sherri - Do you understand why you're here? He says she was a seashell on the beach and did nothing.
Mike -- Dawn and Cochran -- you were playing the same game. Dawn, explain why Cochran isn't getting called the villain you are. She doesn't think Cochran would still be there without her. Cochran admits he's happy people are lighting into Dawn. Talks of her paranoia. He thinks he became her therapist.
Reynold -- Dawn - Disliked from day one, complete fraud. Asks her what she thinks about him.
Andrea -- Not bitter. Grateful even with the blindside. Cochran - Choose an animal he played like. Chameleon. Dawn - Proud of you, strategic game and understands where she's coming from.
Brenda -- Cochran - the family visit, took something from me. He talks of separating game and emotion. Took out a threat to his game. Dawn -- Strong bond I thought we had, pain. She talks about the lost partial plate bit. Would she have quit w/o teeth? No. She tells her to take out her teeth. Dawn refuses, then does it. Brenda said she wanted her to feel the heartbreak.
The voting commences. Phillip votes Cochran and is proud of him, did right by fans and favorites. Eddie wrote down a name he didn't think he'd write tonight, but I didn't see it.
It's off to California! I miss the cheesy jetskis and stuff.
The tally: Cochran, Cochran, Cochran, Cochran, Cochran.
COCHRAN WINS IT ALL!!! It apparently was unanimous as Jeff said Dawn got no votes.
Cochran is a hoot! And, though he just graduated with a law degree from Harvard, he'd like to write. I think he'd do well.
Brenda was via satellite as she's about to give birth any day. She forgave Dawn and all is peachy-keen once again.
Jeff gives a clue about where they're going next season. It looks like blood in water. Hmm.
Cool ... Rudy and Richard Hatch are there!
Flashback to Borneo. Rudy is now 85! He looks good.
71% of the votes for fan favorite were for Malcolm and Brenda. Malcolm had 36% of those, narrowly beating out Brenda. He gets the 100 grand.
The new season new hint is Blood vs. Water. Okay.
Thank you everyone for taking part in the weekly parties this season! You make it all worthwhile!

Wine for the occasion and stuffed mushrooms with honey mustard for dipping over at the bar.
~~~SPLASH~~~
Hey, Jackie! Happy Mother's Day, Jackie. Did Vincent give you some catnip as a gift?
Hi Jackie, and everyone who shows up. I'm so excited to see who wins.
I was thinking it might be Erik with the medical issue too. I had to talk myself out of searching for spoilers -- thank goodness tonight is finally here so I can't have to have that battle anymore!
Hey, Monty.
Hi Becky, Hi Sharon
Wonder if Brandon has calmed down enough to come to the finale?!
Hi Monty and Becky
Good question, Sharon. I wonder if he'll be a cocky little loser tonight?
Looks like Erik
Hey, everyone who has arrived.
*~*~***~*~ SPLASH ~*~*~*~*~*~*
Happy mothers day!
Hey everyone
Oh Monty - is that Eddie & Boogie?
It is good they caught him when they did....
I love Eddie doing that.
Way to go Eddie for calming Erik down. Btw, I have my two pool boys with me tonight ------->
So sad. :(
Noooooo - !! I wanted Erik to win it!
WOW! Sharon you were correct.
LOL, Petals. Eddie and Malcolm - YUMMY
And Dawn cried. Pass the wine, please.
Cheers to Erik! Drink up
I just had a feeling because of what was going on with him last week. I was hoping the feast that Brenda gave up would have been enough to get him back on track, but I guess it wasn't.
LOL Becky!
Needs a LOT of wine for Dawn crying.
I'm crying too.
Monty - I had to click to see it better.
I want anyone to win but Dawn
So, are our drinking strategies the same for this week? Dawn crying, anyone saying finale, going to the end, final three???
~~~SPLASH~~~ Hi Jackie. Thank you for hosting.
Hi everyone. Are we ready for a long night??
I'm having problems posting. It keeps on giving me an error message when I try to post.
Let's drink to all of those Monty. Jackie will let us sleep on the floor if we can't drive home.
I wish Erik had left last week. Brenda could have stayed.
Anon, I would agree but Dawn is the only other one left who has played strategically besides Cochran. I know that isn't popular, but it's the truth.
Final Four DRINKING
Go to the end... DRINKING
Don't the top four get $$? I think I remember that from the second show.
Becky, I brought my sleeping bag ;-)
Cool twist on a couple of old challenges.
Love this challenge.
I know Cochran shook hands with Eddie, but I do not see them keeping him at all.
WHo will win the Fan Fave, I wonder?
GO EDDIE
Anyone think the advantage would really help Sherri?
Petals, I threw all of my votes to Malcolm for fan fav.
Monty, I agree with you that popular moves or not, Dawn has made moves this series.
yay, Cochran!!!
YEAH, Cochran!
I really do not want Sherri to get anywhere. She's done absolutely nothing. Go Cochran and Eddie.
I voted Mal too, Monty.
I doubt she'd make good use of the advantage. I'm glad Cochran won it. Hope it doesn't make him overestimate his odds though. He did well with an advantage the last time he had it.
Sherri has ZERO chance in winning this. She hasn't done anything besides tell the camera she is runnning the game. I doubt any of them at Ponderosa would buy that argument.
Woohoo! I can't believe I'm rooting for him this season. Wow. Well, there goes Eddie.
Eddie has a lot of friends on the jury. I don't think Cochran will keep him. It would be easier for him to win against Dawn and Sheri.
Yay, Petals. He would have won it last season if it hadn't been for Lisa. I hope he wins it!
Well, I voted for both Malcolm and Brenda. She really did well also. And, after they did what they did to her last week, I felt bad for her. LOL.
Now I'm BB nostalgic. Happy it is starting a week sooner this season.
I cannot see them keeping Eddie, even though I like him much better than Sherri. But, Cochran, Dawn, and Sherri made a pact. I wish they had kept Sherri out, but she's done nothing, so she's a good one to take to the end.
I was sooo excited when I saw the BB promo
That's DRINK worthy, isn't it?
Cochran has become a cold-hearted man.
Cochran is the expert, doesn't he know that she would use the mom card?
(he just heard me, and answered that question)
Oh, Cochran, don't be a fool. Take Dawn, Eddie will eat your lunch!
Someday I'm going to take one of my two personal days a day after a Survivor and drink with you guys. No way I can even have one drink and be able to teach the next day.
Well, Sherri is right about that about Dawn: crying, etc. However, I do not think Dawn has the advantage. I think she's irritate a lot of people with her tears.
Cochran has played this game smart this time. He can't possibly think taking Eddie would be better. Eddie has a more likable personality. IMO, if he took Eddie, HE would win. He's, unfortunately, got to get rid of him.
What the H? Black Sabbath & Eric Roberts on CSI?
I'm not sure Eddie would win over Cochran. Eddie would have Reynold's vote, and probably Andrea's, but who else?
Ah, the 'Rights of Passage/Fallen Comrads' moment. It's always cheesy, but I like it :)))
Oh, darn. The Walk of Shame.
I hate Shamar
Sharon, you could throw Malcolm and Brenda in there too!
Brandon is still Brandon!
I wonder if they show furnishes them with this crap they spout!
True -- that would do it for Eddie to win then. Cochran, if he has the chance, should take Dawn and Sherri.
Washing my eyes out with bleach
DRINKING too
Sorry, FillUp. You are still the crazy guy!
Forgot about Michael. He would probably vote for Eddie as well. Eddie could easily win this.
I would love to see Eddie win. I know you guys like Cochran, but I just haven't warmed to him.
Where is Joe?
~~~SPLASH~~~~~
Happy Mother's Day to all of you Mothers (furry children count)
Been eating and reading to catch up but I think I may never catch up on the drinking game!
SueGee on the left coast
anyone notice how they cut out any description by the castaways of julia
Eddie's local to me. I usually cheer on the locals, but I'd like to see a Cochran win. I'd rather see Eddie win than either Sherri or Dawn.
I'd love for Eddie to win and have bragging rights, but I've been rooting for Cochran just because he's that geek that you love to love. He's really come out of his shell this season and I find that refreshing. And, yes, where is Joe?
And where is Ed from Ohio? Cochran is his pool boy.
If Cochran votes out Dawn, Eddie will have her vote.
Yay, another slip-n-slide
He still has to run the stairs...won't get the breather while untying knots though.
It's a very good advantage.
Daaaaamn, really good advantage.
And Sherrie is doing what Sherrie always does. Not much!
It's HUGE
Sherri is useless
wow, so the advantage was for naught
Oh my...I hope Dawn doesn't win this!
aww, come on Ed!
Come on Cochran
Glad Eddie has a sense of humor about it.
Woohoo! The nerdy Cochran did it!!!
WTG Cochran.
Dawn is pretty sure she is solid. Hope she gets her ass burned like she burned Brenda.
Dawn's crying -
DRINK UP
DRINK -
I loved how happy Eddie was when he got his first piece in.
I wish Dawn wasn't going to the final, but they will vote out Eddie. He is the biggest threat. :-(
I can't believe I forgot to say:
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOMS!!!
Agree, Penny. Cochran, if he's smart will realize that Eddie probably has Reynold, Malcolm, Michael and Andrea. Throw in a possible Brenda and Cochran doesn't stand a chance against Eddie. Eddie hasn't really done anything in the game, and even stepped out of an immunity that he should have fought for over a donut, but you never know how a jury will vote.
I love Cochran and his confessionals!!!
lonely at the top --- lol
DRINKING
DRINK!!!
DRINK! I don't think that the Mother card will work.
Awww, I LOVE EDDIE now! <3
ak I didn't realize it was finale night. Been watching since Cochran got the necklace. I HOPE HE WINS!!!
Hi everyone!
Now I am in love with Eddie. He is my soul mate: drinking & dogs. LMAO
I agree Monty -- that confessional made me want Eddie to get it - for a moment.
Hey Rochelle - (I'd forgotten, too)
Sherri - how is she there!
Monty, I think Eddie has Erick too.
hey Petals
Yes, you are your worst enemy and no, you shouldn't do well.
They will not keep Eddie. Cochran has played a very good, smart game.
FillUp always looks pissed. God gave him an angry face.
It's gotten so Dawn's facial expressions irk me.
Eddie's not so stupid...
That was good, Eddie.
Love Reynold's face right there. Sherri doesn't stand a chance, LOL
Agreed Nicklepeed. Hey Jackie. I too am irked
Could go to a tie
I've been done with Dawn since she made brenda dive for her teeth.
So if Eddie and Sherri vote Dawn, and Dawn votes Eddie, Cochran might tie it by voting Eddie
I'd love to see Dawn burn.
:(
Guess Sherri didn't want to go to the end with Eddie either
I think Cochran officially just won
That was a smart move. He is a good looking kid.
Sherri would not get one vote. If she does, it will be out of spike from someone.
I would have loved to watch Dawn and Eddie try to build fire, LOL
Eddie seems to be a very realistic person. I'm starting to like him. Ironic.
Okay, who will vote for Sherri? I think Eddie, Brenda and Michael will go for her.
Maybe Fillup too.
Was she really that worried? You've got to be kidding? Really???
Rochelle, I agree. Cochran has this in the bag. Now for the fun of the jury questions, lol!
I think Sherry will get no votes.
I like Eddie.
I really do not think Sherri will get a vote, but maybe they'll surprise me.
Eddie is so happy go lucky all the time.
Becky, having watched the Ponderosa clips and the Survivor After Shows, I think Phillip/Fillup will vote Cochran.
Did I hear Cochran say Eddie was a chauvinist?
Yeah, it's hard not to like a guy who is so affable (and cute), who is also an EMT (a cute EMT)
Uhm, Sherry - YOU are a pawn.
aye yi Sherri
Penny, remember when Cochran went on the award challenge with Reynold and Eddie? They tried to suck him into the 'bromance alliance'. He wasn't buying it. That's why he called him that.
Sherri is that perfect 'goat' that anyone would love to take to the end. NO CHANCE
omg Cochran do NOT cave now!!!
Wonder if they will be cruel to Sherri?
I don't care how much Dawn cried and how odd some of her expressions are. She PLAYED
Jumpin in late! Sunday evenings are real hard for me to log in (time/wise). But I didn't want to miss the finale. Anyway better late than never.
How in the heck is Sherri in the F3?????
WTH, not the way to get votes! Sherri just shot herself in the foot, as if she had a chance anyway.
No, Sherry won't get any votes. They prolly won't even ask her any questions.
Howdy Ed! Your boy Cochran is going to win this thing... :)))
HI Ed
^5 Monty.
(uhm, put down your horn, Cochran)
I was pulling for Eddie but I still have my Pool Pick Cochran.
You can totally out charm and out strategize Cochran. Is this the humble approach?
Sherri did the dumbest thing by telling people she owns businesses and makes money.
I had forgotten that Monty.
Hi All! To the Mom's.....
...Happy Mothers Day!!!
This is all just a formality, IMO. It is Cochran, all the way.
(the more they promo this stupid sci-fi flick, the more they turn me OFF of it)
Ed, my last remaining pool boy went bye-bye at final four so I'm all in, all rooting for your boy. You missed the heavy drinking earlier, lol.
DRINK
I think Sherri blew it with the company information. I had based my projection on the number of people Dawn and Cochran had burned.
I wonder if they will put Brandon in Hannibal Lechter get-up for the reunion show?
LOL @ Jackie
Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms of human and furbabies.
LMAO Jackie !! HAHAHAHAHAHA
LOVE you Malcolm....
*mwah* Malcolm!
Monty I was pulling for the 2 pool boys in your avatar all along but fate has given me Cochran.
^5 again Monty *wink*
He looks so different! (Eddie)
DRINKING
Jury laughs at Sherri, is that cruel?
the collective laughter at Sherry's answer - priceless.
^5 monty. Need more alcohol!
Eddie cleaned up well!
^5 Petals... great minds think alike.
Pouring shots from the hidden liquor cabinet.
Brandon is so voting for Cochran. He keeps smiling and nodding at him.
@@ oh Geez...here we go.
SAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
S R US
DRINKING
DRINK
lol Sherri got kicked out of SRU
Geez Cochran looks like a lock!
Yeah...they are almost voting instead of asking questions to decide.
Aww, Sherry. No.. No.
DRINKING
BOTTOMS UP
WTG Erik.
OMGosh, Phillip kicked Sherri out of Stealth or us!
Wow...it looks like it's going to be an almost run away for Cochran.
They just do not like her.
Philip is so dang funny.
where is Brandon? I don't see him...
Wow, Sherri is a nasty person. She's very rude and mad because she is being targeted.
Confused signals here - drinking for Dawn crying or Spys-R-Us??? Or both ROFL
(I heard Russell was banned from the finale)
SueGee
Love Reynold! LOL
I don't think Brandon made the jury. He went out just before the jury.
Brandon isn't on jury -- he left earlier than that. He'll be on in the next hour..maybe.
dawn is holding her own though
I'll tell you: Reynold - you're HOT
The jury is having fun.
This jury is a HOOT
CHEERS
This is a great "tribal", because the winner has already been decided.
He's definitely a salesman. He's got the salesman attitude.
