Survivor - Fans vs. Favorites

[joesman]

If Eddie gets to f3 then he has one component of winning. Outlast.

 

[Ekim23]

Would you go back on "Survivor" a third time if you were asked?

BRENDA : Definitely. Definitely definitely. Getting the second phone call was a big deal. To get a third phone call -- you cannot turn that down. I'm not sure if it's going to happen, but if it ever did happen, yeah, I would definitely love to play the game. It's a fun, fun game."

Heh. I'm just surprised Eddie voted out Brenda given his earlier dismay that they were "voting out all the hot girls!"

My favorite season was probably China. First because it introduced us to Courtney, who is funny as hell in her interviews/confessionals. Second, I loved the season as a whole, but I felt that Amanda had ZERO skills in convincing jury during final 3. I think she had a better chance of winning China than she did against Parvati in Fans vs Favorites, but she just sat there vacant and empty going O.O when really a lot of the strategy of her alliance was based off of her thinking, not Todd's.

Amanda is one of my favorite players to play the game. She did set some records along the way of her play but I feel she has horrible jury management skills >.> It's definitely something she should work on if she's called back a fourth time and makes it to the end.

I bet Cochursula has stood in front of his mirror at home, practicing his jury speech and giving himself a pep-talk all, "You have your immunity wins, your blindsides...and don't underestimate the importance of BODY LANGUAGE!"

I hope Scuttle a.k.a. Dawn screams in Cochursula's face like in the movie.

I would think you all hated this season as much as you have trash-talked all the final five.

Each of them has something about them that has kept them in the game, meaning they all have a chance at winning. No matter hiw bitter a jury, peoole saying the right or wrong thing at the moment can change a vote. See Natalie (Samoa) and Neleh for big examples.

Edit- wise, there is no way Eddie or Erik wins.

 

[slipintothefog]

Editwise pretty much everybody is done except for Cochran, though. Sherri was only relevant in about three episodes, and otherwise didn't exist except when Probst was shitting on her during challenges, and Dawn's edit is offering choice bits such as "I'm so confused" in the last episode and of course banshee wailing followed by "I'll pull myself out of the game because I lost my teeth." Meanwhile, Erik was the male Brenda for the first half of the season and then wanted to fall out of a coconut tree to go home, and Eddie just wants to stare at hot chicks. The editors aren't even trying to make any of the other four look like a threat to Cochran who gets credit for EVERYTHING to which he's tangentially related.

That usually means we're having fun with the season. It's so much worse to having a boring season than it is to have people you can genuinely root for and rag on.

Also, lighten up dude. Who are you, Mark Burnett?

I hope Scuttle a.k.a. Dawn screams in Cochursula's face like in the movie.

I got you boo.

 

[slipintothefog]

It's so much worse to having a boring season than it is to have people you can genuinely root for and rag on.

I'd rather not remember the dark days known as Redemption Island. Caramoan isn't the greatest season ever but it's definitely got more to dissect than that black hole of entertainment.

Also I'd die if Dawn did exactly that. She already has the seagull calls down:

 

[slipintothefog]

My predictions for the finale:
-Erik is the quit/medevac if one actually happens
-Malcolm wins fan favorite over Cochran and Brenda
-Dawn drowns in an ocean's worth of her tears at Final Tribal Council
-Cochran drowns in an ocean's worth of Probst's semen after winning the game
-None of the female fans except maybe Sherri are acknowledged at the reunion

 

[Sgt Pepper]

My predictions for the finale:
-Malcolm wins fan favorite over Cochran and Brenda
-Cochran drowns in an ocean's worth of Probst's semen after winning the game

Since they announce the winner first before the fan favorite, yes Probst will premature ejaculate all over Cochran and then have nothing left to cream Malcolm with when he wins fan favorite. Since Dawn is always attached to Cochran, she'll get some on her face too but no one will be able to tell the difference between the spunk and her tears. And then this exchange from earlier in the season will recur:

Probst: "How often does that happen?"
Cochran: "More often than you think."

 

[Sgt Pepper]

I'm really starting to wonder if all this hubris from Cochran is a setup for Sherri to swoop in and win. That would just be so awesome.

Also a bar where you can bring your dog? Oh Eddie. I love you now.

I'm really starting to wonder if all this hubris from Cochran is a setup for Sherri to swoop in and win. That would just be so awesome.

In an alternate universe... The only way Cochran loses is if he spontaneously turns into a Hantz.

Also a bar where you can bring your dog? Oh Eddie. I love you now.

I really hope he wins fan favorite, but I highly doubt it.

 

[Sgt Pepper]

Scratch what I said before. Sherri's opening statement was lousy and awkward. And the jury reactions to her seem...unimpressed? They'd have to really hate Cochran for her to win.

Dawn to her credit opened strong. She didn't apologize for what she did, she didn't claim to be pure and innocent, she just owned her game. I still doubt she can keep that up while the jury grills her and I still think she's toast, but I tip my hat to her just for not falling apart and crying during that opening alone.

 

[Sgt Pepper]

Erik calling Sherri a seashell on the beach is SO hypocritical and lacking in self-awareness considering he actually did nothing in the game and was equally as deluded that he was the swing vote/running shit every week as she was. I hope he feels like a real asshole when he watches this season back. I'm proud of Sherri for telling him to shut the fuck up and sit his narrow ass down.

And that would've been the biggest thing that happened during that Final TC if OMG BRENDA HADN'T ACTUALLY ASKED DAWN FOR HER TEETH BACK!

 

[joesman]

I am happy with the win and happy with the fan fav and glad to see someone fucked Brenda other than Dawn.

 

[Sgt Pepper]

I love Brenda but I have to say, what she did to Dawn at the Final TC was...SO not cool.

 

[slipintothefog]

Brenda losing to Malcolm by 1%... ;_; That would have been the third time in a row my favorite actually won fan fave, too. Oh well.
