Survivor: Gabon

[maggiegrace1]

I am good with the outcome...except I was really hoping Sugar would win the audience vote.

I was also surprised at her answers...she basically gave up.

Corrine is a !..I just wanted to slap her...and Randy does seem so sad.

All in all a good season!..

Sugar seemed to just give the whole thing to Bob. All she needed to do with the jury was to explain how she maneuvered and finagled pretty much every vote to the way she wanted ... all while she appeared to not be running the show. She needed to take more credit for her strategic ability. Bob had the survival skills angle, Susie had the hard worker angle, and Sugar had the mastermind angle. The mastermind angle is usually the winner, because juries like to vote for someone who had a grand scheme and executed it. It makes the jury feel they lost to a better game player. Sugar had that argument and chose not to use it.

Fortunately for Sugar, she is doing okay for herself: Sugar's IMDB profile.

Have a good sense of humor about the show and their performance: Crystal, Kenny, Matty.

Vile, nasty people: Corrinne, Randy.

Showed an unappealing, cocky side to her in the end: Susie.

Final thoughts: Very good winner, very good season.

I loved how the show ended...Yay Bob! He was a favorite of mine since the beginning.

Is it just me or was the final immunity challenge horrible? I have gotten so used to it being a endurance challenge, as it should be. That last final immunity should go to the person willing to go through pain and suffering to garauntee them a spot in the finals for 1 million dollars.

Jury questions went like I thought they would. Although I did see a couple of times when answers weren't accepted because the questioner didn't believe it. Just because you don't like the answer doesn't make it false or wrong.

I am happy that Bob won. I am convinced that Corinne is one of the biggest b!tches to ever walk this earth. I wanted to wipe that smug, "I'm better than these people" smirk off of her face during the reunion show. Sugar essentially handed Bob the million bucks when she forced a tie between him and Matty during the second to last tribal council. Although I was surprised that Sugar didn't get a single vote to win. I guess they all really hated her. Also surprised at how close Susie came to winning it. I actually grew to like her over last night's show. I thought her jury answers were the best of the 3. Bob basically admitted he didn't play the scheming part of the game at all (except when he humiliated Randy), and Sugar just threw in the towel. I fell asleep right before the reunion show ended... did they say where the next show is being filmed?

I believe it was Brazil.

 

[ann0d]

yes Brazil.
I would not want to be near Randy, that guys gives me the creepy heebie-jeebies!

Also surprised at how close Susie came to winning it. I actually grew to like her over last night's show.

That's funny because she actually grew less endearing to us while watching. She won the last challenge and instantly became cocky about it like she's been a strong force the entire game. It's amazing that she almost pulled off a win.

I guess I didn't see it as cockiness; more as genuine surpirse that she had won immunity. She kept repeating that she couldn't believe she had won it. (neither could the rest of them :lol Kenny/Crystal became much less likeable to me as the game wore on. I initially was rooting for them because they were such big underdogs. Once the game changed and they started to dominate, I found Kenny's cockiness to be very unappealing. He admitted as much during the reunion show. All, in all, a very good season! Is the new one starting in January?

Sugar though the game away with her answers. Matty was looking for a I'm sorry for writing you name down at the last elimination. He didn't get it, so he voted for Susie. Then Randy would have voted for Sugar if she would have given the correct answer. I thought Kenny was going to vote for Sugar.

Bottom line, if Sugar would have said she saved Matty and Bob, was the mastermind, she would have one.

Corinne is trying to stand out which is why she acted that way. It's best to ignore someone that has no class.

Randy was also trying to be mean while trying not to smile. Again, that was is way of trying to stand out.

I thought Sugar had the most integrity of any of them. I'm glad Bob won, and I'm also glad that Sugar didn't "sugar coat" any of her answers just to get votes. I have a feeling we'll see more of her. Karma will eventually catch up to Corrine and Randy.

 

[TiggerBW]

I'm so glad Bob won. I liked him. But I caught up late - missed the finalle. I watched it "on demand" and that never showed WHO voted for Bob and WHO voted for Susie! I was SHOCKED Susie got so many votes. Can anyone tell me who in the world voted for Susie? I'm dying to know! Great season! Lots of changes and surprises!

 

[surfsupdon]

This was a fantastic season. Very exciting and I really grew fond of my favorites and rooting against my unfavorites, haha.

I am real glad Bob won, but would have preferred Matty won. And was shocked Susie scored more votes than Sugar. In years past, jury members can usually agree that they were outwitted and outplayed, and will give their vote to the person responsible for their own departure. This was not the case in Gabon. A very bitter jury. But that does make it fun.

Cant wait for Brazil.

As previously posted, Corinne is trying to stand out and scores deals to further the beginnings of a career.

The "Bad Girl of Survivor" in a Playboy spread perhaps? Being remembered and then infamous for her comments? She tried pulling a Sue Hawk but it was just horrible. Not even an apolgy of word choice at the reunion, or an explanation of why she was so harsh.
