Topic: No comments about the Survivor finale?

Additional Comments: For the first time ever, I taped the Survivor finale instead of watching live. There was no way I wasn't going to watch the Desperate Housewives finale live. Plus, IMO this was a pretty dull season of Survivor. I agree with what Colton said in the reunion show. It got boring after he left!

I do think the right person won, and I definitely don't say that every season.

Other opinions?

It sucked.

This season was so bad that I forgot the finale was on and watched half of Cupcake Wars on Food Network before realizing it was on.  I watched until the winner was announced then for the first time ever, did not watch the reunion show.  I really did not care what any of them had to say.  Was Kim a good player?  Yes.  But it was also that the others were so bad they made her look good.  I didn't like Kim as a person.  She struck me as a probable mean girl in high school and sort of a bully.  I only flipped back at the very end to see where they were going next.  I was very disappointed to hear that they are only bringing back 3 of the players for a second chance.  That's BS.  There were a lot more than 3 who were hurt or injured and others who deserved second chances.  I don't want another season of mixing former players with new ones, so I don't know if I will watch.  I guess it depends on who the returning players are.  I hope they do a much better job casting next season than this one.  I can honestly say if this cast had been on Survivor 1, the show would have been cancelled and never made it to season 23.

    I liked Kim I thought she was a great player. I was surprised Sabrina got votes, I thought she was a coat tail rider. I was ok with Kim or Chelsea winning. The fact that the other lady on the jury I think (Alex) the young Porto Rica Lady thought she was a king pin was laughable. She did not play the game well. When Colten left the game was less entertaining, I sure wish he could have finished the season.

  • I don't find bullying, racist, entitled spoiled brats entertaining...but that's just me. I think anyone who finds people making blatant racist comments amusing have issues themselves. JMHO...Maddy
  • I agree, Rae. I didn't think Sabrina would really get votes, but I think maybe some jury members just plain liked her? As for Colton, he was interesting. And yes, he said some awful things, but I agree that he was entertaining (not that the awful things he said were entertaining, but his gameplay was). And Maddy, who here said they were amused by any racist comments Colton made? No one, so I don't get why you're attacking Rae. eom/lisa3
  • Troyzan voted for Sabrina because he was bitter. Lief voted for her because she prayed with him
  • That is ALL that came out of Colton's mouth...racist comments...and everyone - not just Rae keep saying how entertaining he was and the show got boring when he left. So, yes, people obviously found racist comments entertaining...Maddy
  • I found Colton to be more eletist than racist. I think hge would have made the comments about 'getting a real job' if he had been white but poor also. Still sad and ugly but I didnt really see racial motivations. (eom) Dawn

    BRAVO KIM!!!!!!!!!! Bravo! I see why people found this season boring because Kim took us all to school and gave a lesson on how to play survivor! And some people find school boring. I did! But i loved this season. I loved seeing Kim played this game!!! It was such a treat to see a first time female player be shown as the player she was! Rob was popular in RI and that was his 50th (okay 4th?) time playing! He had practice and fame to help him along. And IMO the people on his tribe were the dumbest people ever! They all looked out for Rob. Kim had people who were looking out for themselves but she was still able to get them to think about her! 

     

    During a commercial break Hatch was standing talking and he told Jeff that Kim was one of the best winners ever! And he is right! Kim played the HELL out of this game! And for that reason I didnt find this season boring at all!

  • Really? See, I thought all the other players were really BAD and Kim had the easiest game play ever. No one even TRIED with the exception of Troyzan...he spelt it out to everyone, and yet no one had a clue. They all just fell in line and lived with it. They GAVE it to Kim at the merge. Plain and simple. She didn't even have to work for it. To me, that makes for a BORING predictable win. Even Jeff said *you have to make a big move in this game...and nobody did*. Maddy
  • totally agree Maddy

    When they were at the final four I was cheering on Christina.  Wouldn't that have been a hoot if she won!  Kim was smart but kind of reminded me of a black widow spider.  Also, that woman needs some electrolysis on her upper lip.  Her moustache was very evident in the last two episodes.

    Glad Kim won.

    Agree it was a pretty dull season (but Colton will be memorable).

    The final immunity challenge (navigating the bowls through the maze-thing on springs and then stacking them) was really cool.

  • Kim played a smart game, and I give my congrats to her.

  • She was divorced, and owned her own bridal shop. Ex, eat your heart out. How many games did she win... what a player. .. Money Honey
