Troyzan was going to be on it, but couldn't keep his mouth shut, so he was replaced with Malcom.





How bout we leave the hantz family out of all future reality shows?

Denise like a boss.. I was rooting for Skoopin from the start, but liked Malcolm and Denise all the way through.

Denise's husband wasn't creepy or anything....

He started to get cocky and wanted to keep it as a souvenir.

Wasn't Denise the one harping that she wanted to bring the best to the finals? Then why did she vote out Carter over Abi and Malcolm over Lisa?

quote:

No way Lisa beats either of them in a fire-making challenge.


Actually, they decided to ditch the fire challenge and go back to the purple rock.

BTW, I was hoping Penner spilled the beans about The Facts of Life. I wish Lisa countered it with the fact that she lost the money to bad investments and that she just got divorced 10 days prior to filming.

at Jeff asking Malcolm if he would play again when he has already filmed season 26.

I thought it was a dick move on penner's part. Especially since he's an actor himself.

It was terribly petty. His whole rant was tedious and uninspired and paled in comparison to Sue Hawk's, which set the standard. Penner really made an arse out of himself.

sorry I left the thread and wasn't posting much, this season had such high hopes but after the exciting middle it was a bunch of awful game moves that led it to be so un-exciting.

I actually thought Lisa deserved to win most, but only by default. Although she was crazy, she actually did strategize and make a lot of solid game moves to advance herself

How awful is Skupin? He acted so cocky, yet he didn't answer any of the jury questions well, never brought up all the challenges he won, etc. Skupin actually won enough challenges to be able to easily win, but Abi was correct about him, he's a moron. If he had kept Abi, either he or Lisa would have won. He gift wrapped the game to either Denise or Malcolm.

I loved RC's comments, Pete fricked over his tribe so bad, and they were so dominant. His intentional fight starting led to all the fractures that led to their demise after the merge. Getting rid of RC was the stupidest move of the season...followed a close second by Penner being a moron and voting a throw away vote that led to Jeff Kent being voted out.

But I am definitely pumped about next season, should be great.

Did they? I thought they kept purple rock for all situations except a tie at final four. Denise seemed to believe that as well.

Yeah I lol'd at that.

Speaking of returnees, Pete tweeted this yesterday:

Pete Yurkowski %u200F@PeteYurkowski
Just witnessed RC throwing a serious hissy fit to CBS production staff that they have to bring her back. LOL. #spoiled #*****Get real kid.

frick RC. Her edit was way too sympathetic. Her Ponderosa vids showed how annoying she really is, no wonder she wound up on the bottom of Tandang.

I agree with all of this, but Pete is a moron himself. He pretty much single handedly led to the downfall of his tribe and his great position in the game, for no real reason other than he wanted to start shite and didn't like RC

True, but like I said I can't blame him for hating her because she seems fricking annoying

The only great part of the final episode was when Carter stood there, looking like Carter does, and listened to Skoop praise him, then just goes, "Awww man. Thanks bro."

I could still see CBS bringing her back.

Annoying + Huge Fun Bags = Good Television.

Also, I am amazed every season at how truly awful people are at promoting themselves in the final tribal council. They literally have nothing to do all day but prepare, yet they still fail miserably every single season.

It's funny, Abi was completely crazy in the game but seemed sort of all right IRL, while it was the opposite for RC, who was a psycho bitch outside the game. And I wanted to punch her for all the stupid giggling she did while asking her questions of the final three.

IDK if you watched the Ponderosa vids, but that giggle is ever-present throughout. And of course she was the first jury member, so she is giggling in every. single. video.

She had my nerves grated after watching a couple of 4-minute videos. Imagine spending WEEKS with her.

And I agree with you about Abi. I know a lot of people rejected the "cultural/language barrier" theory but I think it had something to do with it. I was glad to see her very humble at the reunion. Compare that to the way NaOnka acted at the Nicaragua reunion.

RC has the most annoying laugh. She awkward giggles after every word she says. I was shocked Abi voted for Denise.

Carter was so epically awesome in the most boring, dull way

The dude was the definition of "just there"

I'm friends with some foreign exchange students, and I can tell you it definitely played a part. Now, she was definitely still a crazy bitch, but the lack of the fluency in english made it seem a lot worse.

One of my friends always sounded like he was being rude or ungrateful when asking questions or talking about things, but he didn't mean it.

Example, if you were going to ask someone for a ride me or you would say something like "Hey man, do you think you could give me a ride to the store ?"

Where he would say "(Name of person), you give me ride to store?"

Carter always seemed like a stoner to me.

Skupin was like a big, dumb, clumsy puppy. But he was a really good sport when teased about all his accidents.
