Survivor - China

Thing is, they usually have to be stagnant while holding up some object or bearing some weight, so that part could be the demise of Courtney.

This is the first season ever where I didn't really have a favorite that I wanted to win, but still think it will be an interesting finale show.

Part of me asks how did Courtney stay around so long.
Part of me thinks that because she did, she will somehow win.

I just saw on my onscreen guide that Survivior's going to be from 8pm-11pm tomorrow night. That's past my bedtime, I'm going to have to take a nap.

Halfway through, and it does look like it's going to be final 3.

I guess that makes sense, because when it's final 2, it gives the person who wins the final challenge WAY too much power.

On a side note, does anyone else find it funny that a LUNCHLADY, WAITRESS, and FLIGHT ATTENDANT lost a challenge of balancing plates to a hiking guide??

Denise, it seems like I've written this a lot...WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???

Why, oh why did you open your mouth and say Amanda had your back? That probably cost you her vote.

On the other hand, when Amanda said she wouldn't write down Denise's name, I kinda thought she'd vote for Courtney. 2-1-1, same result, and Amanda kept her word. She just lost herself a jury vote. Not smart.

So Amanda didnt get any votes..wow so Courtney got 100K

Amanda & Courtney looked so different at the reunion

Go James..100K .. and for getting ALL the attention at the reunion...lol

Go Denise with a 50K sob story

Next season should be interesting.. Fans vs former players

I think I enjoyed this reunion show more than most of them. This group seemed like they had a lot of fun. James is a really good guy and I'm glad he got the 100K. I like that he wasn't going to be "bitter Betty". I really wish he had used one of the HIs that night. I was really surprised Jeff went there with Courtney.. the eating disorder question.

ETA: The next Survivor will probably be the most watched ever because of the writers strike. It will be one of the few new shows on. Based on appearances during last night's reunion, any guesses who ends up being on it again?? They usually finish taping the February show right around now, so they would have just gotten home. Was anybody really really tan or thinner than expected?

Amanda did get 1 vote from Erik, but I was pretty surprised. I think she killed herself at the final Tribal, though. I think she outted herself TOO MUCH as the brains behind certain votes. I didn't like the way Amanda and Todd looked - I thought they looked better all scruffy.

As for Denise - I'm kinda feeling both ways on that. Yay for Mark Burnett for giving her 50K (I'm assuming that's ON TOP OF the money she won for 5th place??), because it was his show's fault that she lost her job...buuuuuuut....she did know the risks going into it, and not having a job when you get back is one of them.

ETA: This is going to sound strange, but I really think Todd played the most honest game of the bunch. Sure he lied to people, but he started off saying at the beginning that he WOULD lie to people and basically do whatever it takes to win that million. Amanda tried to spin it that she was the honest one in the bunch, and then when people started turning it back on her, she flipped and said that she was a liar, and that she was the brains behind everything.

Oh, and Courtney saying that Denise sucked at life (just when I was thinking that she'd been less of a whiny biatch lately)? Priceless. It's one thing for people here on teh intarwebz to tell people that they suck at life, because for all you know, Bill Gates could be on the other side of the keyboard...but for someone to actually say that about someone else they know, wow.

I throughly enjoyed the reunion show. I literally LOLed through a lot of it, which is not something I ususally do at TV shows.
