I actually hate Survivor and everything it stands for. My wife watches it though, so I can't help but catch glimpses of it. Although I have to admit, I found myself getting sucked in near the end and that Russell guy made it worth watching. Despite being somewhat of a prick, I couldn't help but root for him. He was a hoot, and in a show where I dislike everybody on it, i would have loved to have seen the #1 heal win it. I also bet that in real life, he is probably a good guy.
It also kind of bothered me that some people thought that because he is financially successful, that he didn't "deserve" the money. Really now.... NOT one of those lying backstabbers "deserves" $1 million for acting like sociopaths (which they all either did or would do if given the chance). Besides, for all we know, Russell might have worked harder than any of them ever did in their whole lives... and people shouldn't be punished for that.
