Ahh, I see you like the sneaky mastermind types the best. As do I....

 

Sadly, I never saw the original Survivor.

There should be a "highlight reel" tape out there somewhere. It gets most of the pertinent details...

(edit) I'm also curious, but did anyone else find it ironic that they did the finale at the Ed Sullivan Theatre, seeing as how Letterman really doesn't give a crap about Survivor?

I agree.....Jenna should not have won....

 

Anyway, question: Was Suvivor Outback the most questionable series because you did not know who would win series? I thought it was but I don't remember clearly the circumstances.

 

I remember Colby had the power to win b/c he could have picked Keith instead of Tina and he would have beaten Keith but he did not. Also, Mike was severly burned right? and Jeff was probably the smartest out of all of them. and can't forget Jerri the bitch/witch..who posed for Playboy...I saw that issue....Can someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Am I bitter? Hell Yes!

 

I think the integrity of this season has to be called into question when Jenna is given the ability to pick her team for no other reason than that she was the youngest. It led to a series of events in which she packed the jury with her kind of people, the High School Clique.

 

Things would have been dramatically different if people like Jeanne had made the jury instead of Heidi, and Roger made the jury instead of Deena. I blame Jenna’s victory on the switch, something she had control over without any actual merit.

 

This was a huge mistake on Mark Burnett’s part. Jenna’s victory is by far the most unearned victory ever in Survivor. Jenna did not win because of game play. She won because she was given control over a part of the game no one else had access too and it wasn’t fair.

 

I’m all for switches to shake up the tribal dynamites, but make it totally randomized, like in Survivor 4.

 

I hope Mark Burnett understands the fundamental advantage the switch gave Jenna over Matt and the rest and works to make sure it never happens again.

 

I just wonder if it's too late and Jenna’s victory is a show killer.

My favorites:

1. Boston Rob (Maequesas)

2. Christy (Amazon)

3. Kathy (Maequesas)

4. T-Bird (Africa)

5. Helen (Thailand)

6. Matt (Amazon)

7. Keith (Australia)

8. Rudy (Palau Tiga)

9. Lex (Africa)

10. Jake (Thailand)

 

Basically, I am a fan of REAL people who want to go on an adventure of a life time. Not media whores, like Alex and Gabe (Both of whom worked at Belly, by the way).

I agree, I sucked sucked when Jenna won.

 

A few things....

 

It was funny when Heidi asked her question about who on the jury deserved thier seat, and both Jenna and Matt answered Rob. Then Heidi proceeded to ask Jenna if the was "anyone else", practically begging her to say Heidi. Stupid Heidi.

 

I really think that CBS should publish somewhere WHY the jury voted for who they did. Wheather it be on TV or online, I really wanna know why they ALL voted for Jenna over Matt.

 

Did you guys just tape survivor and watch Smackdown or just not watch the first hour of smackdown or what?

 

It would be cool of on suvivor 9, they brought people back and had one tribe of the eight past winners, and one tribe of the 8 runner-ups.

I watch Survivor and tape Friends. I read the SD! spoilers so if there's something I want to watch I'll look out for it.

 

I'll probably be doing the same thing for The Amazing Race...

Probably not. The way I see it, once Rob was voted out, the winner was immaterial. Rob carried the show, and if the way he played redefines the way others play in the future, then your set. If he was an aberration and the players go back to tried-and-true Pagongings, then the show is screwed.

I'd like to see Survivor Winners go at it in a Best Of season.

 

Rich

Tina

Ethan

Vesepia

Brian

Jenna

 

Now, if you want to add some guys to the show who SHOULD have won or at least make for some good TV, throw in:

 

Rob (Amazon)

Lex (Africa)

Boston Rob (Marquesas)

Rudy (The Original)

Colby (Australia)

Jerri (Australia)

Kelly (The Original)

Ken (Thailand)

Alex (Amazon)

Matt (Amazon)

 

I think that would make for a great Survivor. Who would win out of all that?

Yea...I was thinking the same thing...They also can make the prize worth 1.5 or 2 million to get them over if they didn't want to do it again. It would be really, really interesting and it would get viewers who turned off Suvivor after 2 or 3 b/c they would want to see how the beginning ones fared. Off course Rob would be left off even though he was the true game player.

I would like to see a Survivor where they bring back all the whiners who hypocritically cried about being stabbed in the back just because they got booted and see how they interact and fare.
