Premiers Thur. Sept. 25 @ 8PM ET/PT
18 new contestants will compete for the $1 million prize in the jungles of the equatorial African nation of Gabon.
Who will be the sole Survivor?
I still dislike Sugar because of her phoniness, but I gained a little more respect for her last night. I don’t think her move to blindside Crystal was all that smart (it wasn’t based on strategy, but rather on emotion because she was upset that Crystal was yelling at Matty), but the move with the idol was smart. Wear it openly to ensure no votes are cast against her, then hand it off to Matty and erase all the votes against him. Of course, it turned out that it wasn’t needed because Matty only got two votes, but it was still the smart thing to do just in case Bob and Susie went back on their word, and it was the last time the idol could be used anyway.
That move by Ken wasn’t even smart. The idol has to be played before the votes are read. Corinne would have had no way of knowing whether there were three or four votes against her.
I hate those popularity prizes. If they do them too often, contestants might start playing to gain the American voters’ favor instead of playing to win.
Thanks! I forgot all about that. All I could remember was the two that James had and Ozzie’s one.
I wasn’t aware of the Ponderosa feature. Is that new for this season?
Corrine is being a big witch. Talk about your unforgiving, bad attitude.
Did they have Ponderosa last season? I don’t remember.
Corrine and Randy seem to have loose screws, but I still don't care for Crystal and her new happy go lucky attitude doesn't impress me.
I don’t remember either. I don’t think it was there last season.
SURVIVOR PING!
The Final Five!: Bob, Ken, Matty, Sugar, Susie
The Jury: Marcus, Charlie, Randy, Corinne, Crystal
Losers: Michelle, Gillian, Paloma, Jacquie, GC, Kelly, Ace, Dan
The Season Finale! "Say Goodbye to Gabon"
Tonight at 8 (7 Central) - 2 hour episode followed by the 1 hour Live Reunion Show
Two castaways are sent packing, leaving three to plead their case for the one million dollar prize and the title of sole survivor. A shocking turn of events causes the castaways to scramble for new strategies in the moments before Tribal Council. The fate of the final four rests in the hands of one castaway who reveals an outrageous decision at the most surprising Tribal Council yet. The jury is faced with a million dollar decision after they question the last three castaways at the final Tribal Council.
Two immunity challenges
Seven jurors
Three finalists
One winner
Spoilers (these are very speculative, don't take too seriously - highlight to see):
First IC: Bob wins, Matty is voted off
Second IC: Bob wins again!, Ken is voted off
Final 3: Bob, Sugar, Susie. Matty votes for Sugar. Crystal and Ken vote for Susie. Charlie, Corinne, Marcus, and Randy vote for Bob. Bob wins in a 4-2-1 decision!
Again, this is highly speculative.
I'll be back after the show with the final recap.
Sounds good to me.
I like your spoiler.
Got my fingers crossed.
Ditto here~!!!!
East Coast Survivor fans...
football just ended...
everything backed up 30 minutes...
I hope Bob wins, I don’t like the other 4 much...
The first IC and TC are over and I’m very happy with the results.
So far, so am I!
Go Bob!!
The look on Susie’s face — I almost feel sorry for her.
Susie got 3 votes?
Susie?
She only made to where she was because she flipped and joined “Them”.
I can’t believe it either. The sore losers were giving her the anti-Bob vote.
Bob was the legit survivor; Sugar should have received the anti-Bob votes, not Susie.
Loved who won.
