I'll watch but not the reunion! Never do.

I would have like to have seen Caleb make it to the finale. THought he was good.

I'm going to watch it but I DVR it and start it at 8 so I don't have to deal with commercials.

The final 3 have been spoiled since before the season started.

watching right now and so confused who I'd vote for! the reason I watch the reunion it's where they announce the winner..then I switch!

Hope the next season will have NEW contestants.

Just coming on...

I don't want to give anything away. I will say I liked this set up better than last season.

And I will also say, when they gave the sneak preview of next season, I absolutely nailed it! Ask DH, honest I did, lol.

We watched it as it was airing, so we had to sit through all the commercials (ugh!). Was it just me, or did they not do the bit where the final three make the long walk where they collect the name tags from the eliminated players' torches?

Did they not do it because they didn't want to mention Colton-the-quitter?

No Lindsey, they didn't do it. That was one of the things I referred to in my other post. I'm glad they cut that part out. Waste of time. I think it gave more time for tribal.

So what did everyone think of tribal? Clearly Tyson was the correct winner, in my opinion. Monica's repeated cry fest was hard to take. I don't know, maybe because I didn't like her from the start, but it seemed she was really laying it on thick. I think the only reason she got one vote was because Vytas stuck to his word and didn't give Tyson his vote. And her comment at one point, "I'm still that pretty little co-ed that caught your eye". Wow.

Very sad what Tina and Katie went through. But here again, how are these people even there if her son died just "a couple weeks ago"? When my bil died at 16 years old, he drowned, it was awful. When my Dad died, and my Mom died, I could barely get out of bed. Nevermind go on national tv and talk about it. I know everyone grieves differently, but they seemed so......I don't know, cold. Maybe they are still numb.

What was up with Kat? She made no sense. DH and I think maybe she was referring to a boob job? Total air head.

I am beyond glad that they finally, Finally, did NOT give Boston Rob one second of time.

Let's hope next season is ALL new players. And I would be good with blood vs. water again also, it was a cool twist.

I have to completely agree with Katlan, except about Tina and Katie being there, it sounded like they needed the company and sympathy and caring of their Survivor family and it was probably a nice change of pace, a distraction if you will, for them.

Kat is tacky, I hope the very nice Hayden doesn't stay with her for too long, he can do so much better. She's too shallow and immature.

Monica might be the nicest woman in the world, but she is too wrapped up in herself and her image and waffles between thinking she is less than her husband to the other extreme of being the one who "made him" what he is. I think she could use a little therapy. She just comes across as fake, she needs to lighten up.

Every time Jeff asks someone if they would consider playing again, it seems like a hint that they just DID play a second season. So who was it he asked, Hayden and Vytas? I guess we'll see them again. I hope to never see Colton again. Ever. For a quitter, they sure give him too much face time.

Even though I was never a Tyson fan, I think he deserved the win. Great game play.

I did not see a problem with Tina being there last night. In part I think she wanted to get the message out about making sure people buckle up. I would probably do the same.

Kat has some issues. I was waiting for her to stand up and show "the girls".

I am so glad they did not do the retrospective walk. A waste of time in my opinion.

Here in SW. Pa., it was tough trying to watch Survivor and also the Steelers...Lots of flipping, back and forth....

I really wasn't a fan of Tyson's but, he did indeed "play the game" and deserved to win....As far as Monica, what a self centered person! And the way she'd go on and on, I'm sure her hubby loved hearing "how she made him what he is".....
what did you think of last season's winner, I'm sure I'll get the name wrong, Caukren....I loved him and so happy he's doing well.....
I was glad they didn't do the walk through, waste of time....

Now, what do I do on Wednesday nights??????

I, too, am glad they didn't do the "walk" .I noticed that right away. Of the three, definitely Tyson deserved to win. Plastic woman certainly did not. Did not like that couple at all. At the grocery store last night I read about Tina's son being killed. I thought it said on Dec. 7th, and if I'm right I can't see how the two of them could be there. But maybe they wanted to be their TV "family" in their grief. Love that Cochran has a gig as a TV comedy write. Really like him. If I ever see Colton again, I'll puke.

YEA!!! I was always a fan of Tyson's~~~he played the best game! I think he seems like a really sweet guy;)

Monica, was getting on my nerves with the crying, I think that is how she has always gotten what she wants in the world. She was all into 'This is for me, I have always been in the shadow of Brad~BOOHOO'. She was hanging on him for dear life at the reunion and had a whole different 'love' story. BARF!!

I am so glad they got rid of that reflections walk of all the players. So of them never even meet each other being on different teams and people leaving first. It was always a waste to me and boring.

Stupid Gerves, he was just waiting to make his big move and get rid of Tyson and take over the game. Laughable, he just went as far as he did on Tyson's coat tails, Monica also.

YEA!! Tyson!

I liked "not" seeing the walk. Didn't like Tyson, but thought he deserved to win. Was glad Tina & Katie were there....buckle up!

Monica is what she is, beautiful, smart and willing to go on Survivor and be in the public eye, good for her. Yes, beautiful women "are" wrapped up in themselves, it's true.....so being ugly or average has it's perks. lol

It was a good season....

I was not a fan of the top 3,but I would have picked Tyson over the others.
I think Monica is so worried about her famous husband leaving her for a younger prettier model of plastic that she is desperately trying anything to keep the attention, trying to be the Young co ed etc. But saying repeatedly that she made him was not a smart move and I bet she heard about it from Big Bad Brad.

Gervais doesn't deserve a mention just like he didn't deserve a vote. Floater period.

Kat never makes any sense, and to go get boobs to try to keep Hayden is just desperate and sad. But that's what she is. I did notice Hayden never replied to Jeff's questions about if they are still a couple, and she scrambled to say how far apart they live. I think Hayden smelled the coffee! That girl is needy times 3! RUN HAYDEN RUN! lol

Over all a decent season. Not sure what Brawns, Beauty, And Brains will be like but it should be different. Have no idea where it is being played, need to Google that name.

I certainly didn't miss the tribute walk all I ever got from that was a view of the beautiful scenery of the location.

Oh, and Colton's crack about being on Team AARP? What a jerk. Every single one of those "old farts" kicked his arse. He alienated half of the audience, at least, right there. Not that anyone liked him anyway. Caleb could do so much better, too.

Good point about Hayden and Kat, Raven. They sure didn't answer the question.

I am still not convinced that Colton and Caleb are really a couple.

Poor Kat she is such a needy ditz. She needs therapy to get over whatever is hurting her.

Kat is very needy and her remark was inappropriate talking about her new boobs on TV. Maybe she got Monica's doctor. Monica is young , 43 , and all the work she has had to keep her superstar football player is crazy. Gervase was a joke. I liked the doctor couple voted off early on, John and ?. Colton's joke about AARP went over like a lead balloon. I hope we never see him again. I think Hayden will be back, maybe the brothers too.

Here's the recap, which is always good. Links there also to the Q & A with Probst and info on the next season.... all new players!

Here is a link that might be useful: recap of finale

Oh, another question I have.....no $100,000 award to the fan favorite? I probably would have voted for Vytas. I really like Caleb, but the mere thought that that pig Colton would get one red cent of it would prevent me from voting for him..

I can't state enough how much I never, ever want there to be return players. I'll bet the braun will be guys like Aras, brains will be guys like Cochran and beauty will be the twenty somethings in tiny bikinis. I'll bet at least half are total air heads also. But it makes for great tv.

Come on February.

Maybe beauty will be Kat since she hinted at having her boobies done~~Opps did I just say that;)

I like Vytas also, I would want to be with him, we could do yoga together and talk yoga talk;)

I really dislike returning players, maybe once in awhile a reunion type show. Maybe??

Next season has no returning players, per the info on the interview with Probst.
