Survivor - Fiji (spoilers)

[sckeener]

The real choice for Dreamz was between keeping his word and nothing. He chose nothing.

I figured he knew he was cooked for the million... I think he was really playing for the $100K 2nd place prize. I wish someone had voted for Cassandra so he would have gotten nothing but the car.

I like Michelle. What a bitter, bitter jury.

I think it is a safe bet that we will see Yau-Man again a year from now at the next All-Star Survivor

Apparently I was wrong....him and Cassandra apparently are getting the $100k.

at least according to this article

Yeah, Yau-Man is this season's Rupert in terms of popularity. I dunno if they're thinking of doing the fan vote for a million again, but if so they can save some time by just giving Yau the cheque. Apparently Survivor had a big boost in ratings this season, and he's one of the major reasons - certainly worked on me, he's easily my favourite player from any season.

I think Dreamz' major mistake was accepting the car in the first place; once he did that, he had no shot at the million. Probably he figured that out soon after making the deal, and from then on was trying to figure out a way to come in second. Given the circumstances, he got the best possible outcome, so I have a fair bit of respect for his game.

Cassandra got to the final because everybody wanted to go up against her in front of the jury. It's hard to credit her when her main strength was everybody thought they could beat her in the final vote, but she got the cash so good for her.

Earl's a very strong player and a worthy champ. I wouldn't mind seeing him in the next All-Star edition either.

I'd love to see Earl vs Yul vs Yau-man vs Boston Rob vs Rob Cesternino vs Tom (Season 9) in an All-Star matchup. If I could take anyone out of that group it would be Boston Rob as he's been on 4 CBS shows so far, but he's so fun to hate. That group had the best players I can recall off the top of my head. 3 winners and 3 people that could have won in there.

I'd almost like to see a version of Survivor All-Stars where they have two tribes- one with the "masterminds" and one with the "working class joes"- both competing against one another to see who would win. You'd have people like Matt (season 6) and Ozzy (season 10), against the likes of Yul (season 10), and Rob (season 6) for example. Brains vs. Brawn.
