Damn I love Rupert. As unlikely as it is, I sure hope he gets back in some day.

Catching the late show. The only one I could find on was starting at 9pm.

Rupert sucks. I don't know how he can be so popular. That guy is annoying.

What's AARP?

Woo! Damn I am good at picking these things. The right person takes it again.

I felt bad for Monica she did get pummeled from game one, but frankly she was a puppy on the leash. Gervais did absolutely nothing and didn't earn a vote.

This wasn't a season with a ton of intrigue Ciera and Hayden did their best to stir things up, but Monica was too afraid to make a big move.

No fan favorite award?
Surprised about Cochrane. May have to watch that show.
When Tina's daughter showed up as a juror and Hayden made a comment about her looking good, I thought Kat might feel insecure. Oh wait... She got a boob job right after.
Sad about Tina's son. They did't say there was drunk driving, just no seatbelt?
They didn't let Gervase's niece talk at all. She was the only one?
Making Monica cry...what was the point?
I hated to see Tyson win that final immunity. He's a ######bag, but as soon as he was in the final 4, you knew he was going to win.
Hayden is so freakin' hot.

Gervais thought he played a great game, what a tool. Loved the look on his face when Tyson said they should vote for Monica over him.

Monica: "I put the fear in my alliance that I may turn at any moment. Now my strategy is to win immunity"

I don't even like Tyson but if he didn't win that one it would have been the worst jury ever.

Next season's concept sounds kind of lame, but I'm withholding judgement because I thought this season would be bad, but it was probably the best since China. So we'll wait and see.

[Cheese]

well...LOVED the season, hated the winner. In the end though out of the three finalists he was most deserving.
Monica and Gervase both rode the coattails this year and Monica was especially whiny at Tribal. No idea why Gervase thought he was the ring leader or "power" player.

Next season, Brawn, Brains and Beauty? So 3 teams?

trackercrowe and KootenayFlamesFan pick the winner with trackercrowe getting Tina in 4th place and taking the overall.
kudos to Parralex who picked the 2nd and 3rd place finishers this year...Monica and Gervase.

Things I liked/found funny:

-Gervaise saying that he always had a plan to get rid of Tyson.. even though Tyson was always multiple steps ahead of him (including playing the idol at a tribal where there was a lot of talk about blind siding him)
-Gervaise Niece (can`t even remember her name) laughing when someone said this season was relatively easy weather wise, then Jeff saying "XXXX be quiet you honestly don`t know. Hahah"
-Colton being called out by Jeff, then called out again, then again, until he finally just admits that he is a bad person and needs to work on not being a whiny baby. You can tell him leaving really pissed Jeff off and he wanted Colton to own up for it.
-Candace being called good looking when she resembles big bird. Body wise, she is great, but pretty?
-Kat getting a boob job and being so awkward while Hayden tries to shush her without being too obvious. Why the hell is he with her?
-Tina thinking she had any chance to win this season

All and all it was a great season, Tyson deserved to win and he did, so good on the jury for that. There were very few non players this year, which is usually the case with returning players but it is still refreshing. I loved how Probst looked right into the camera and said "If you are coming to play Survivor, live by those words, don't play for 4th!" So true.. and good on Ciera for making those moves.

Looking forward to the next season but I have a feeling it will be a filler type season full of ZzzZz episodes. Hope I am wrong though!

[killer_carlson]

Good season, and Tyson winning the last two immunities sealed it up for him. I thought Monica would have got a few more jury votes.

Kat is a train wreck waiting to happen.

I can see a few family members being invited back again: Vytas, Hayden, Brad Culpepper, Ciera, even John.

And Candace is uber-good looking imo

[$ven27]

Pretty solid season, was so happy that Tyson won. Yes he's a bit of a smartass, but he's a freaking funny one and played a very good overall game. Got to admit I was a little worried as Monica seemed to be getting a lot of sympathy looks during the jury questions, plus with Vytas voting for Monica I figured the two bros would vote together and Laura seemed to be hesitant in her voting. Looking forward to the next season, hopefully they bring back Brenda, Parvati (beauty), Ozzy (brawn) and Russel Hantz (brain). One can dream eh?

[albertGQ]

There are no returning players next season. All new castaways

[GreenLantern]

The new season would have just finished filming, correct? So that rumour must be true.

I made the mistake of googling for Survivor spoilers a few seasons ago and knew who won before it even started.. don't want to repeat that :P

Good. It should be obvious by now that returning players tend to have a huge advantage over new players. I'd rather they stick with "All-Star" seasons and not mix the two.

Not sure about the next season... I'd think that Brains would be at a disadvantage and I tend to dislike having more then two tribes.

It was filmed back to back with 27 in the Philippines. That rumour is true as the entire cast list has been spoiled. No boot list spoilers yet. I familiarize myself as soon as the cast list comes out just to get a better handle of the première in seasons like this where we don't know anybody.

I don't know. It seems like the last 10 seasons or so every challenge is supplemented with a puzzle portion so that the less physically-inclined have a chance. If anything, the beauty tribe would seem to be at a disadvantage as they likely have little to offer when surrounded by other beautiful people.

Beauty is only useful when there's someone to impress.

But I suppose, if they have good bodies and such, they probably have some athletic ability and shouldn't be complete disasters in challenges.

He's a great survivor contestant for them. When the chips were down, he was great.

Yep, my guess is as soon as next season

if they go big for season 30 with another all stars or heroes v villains type thing he is a lock to be in either
