Survivor: Gabon - Finale

From left to right: Sugar, Kenny, Bob, Matty, Susie Last night was the finale of Survivor: Gabon, and a bit lackluster if you ask me. So my three original choices from episode one were Kenny (The Gamer), Crystal (The Olympic Gold Medalist), and GC (The Token Brotha). Of my three choices, two of them made it to the final six, so not bad. Unforunately, neither of them would comprise the final three survivors. The final four comprised of Sugar (The Pin-Up), Bob (The Physics Teacher), Susie (The Invalid), and Matty (The Workhorse). It was so clear that if Bob made it to the final three, that he would win the million dollars as the jury was made up of people from his old tribe, and clearly people who would not vote for Sugar and Susie. The last elimination vote basically came down to Matty or Bob leaving. Originally, they were unanimous on voting Bob out, but for whatever dumbfuck reason, Sugar, who I think is clinically retarded, decides maybe she can vote for Matty bringing the eli...

Survivor: Gabon - Week 2

"Week 2" of Survivor collected the events during Days 7-9. During this episode, Fang seemed to have gotten their shit together as they won both challenges. Usually (but not always) you can tell which tribe is going to tribal council because the episode will focus more on that team. And so when they kept going back to team Kota, I got suspicious. They are still quite a generic team. I don't know any of the names of the women, but I know 3 names of the guys: Ace the irritating and arrogant photographer, Charlie the token gay dude, and Bob the awesome physics teacher old guy. There was some tension in team Kota as Ace was telling everyone what to do and it just rubbed people the wrong way. The reward challenge was a game where one of your tribemates would cling on to a pole, while two of the opposing tribe members would attempt to pull you off and drag you to the finish line. The first team to 2 points would be declared winner. The game wasn't that exciting actu...

Survivor: Gabon - Week 1

The 17th season of Survivor started this past Thursday. I'm quite a bit of a Survivor fanatic which I think stems from my love of prowrestling. Like wrestling, in Survivor there are always great babyfaces, devious heels, comedy, swerves, heel turns, basically all the good stuff that keeps you on the edge of your seat (Note: I wonder if it's any coincidence that two seasons ago, one of the Survivors was a former WWE diva). This season seems to be no different after only one episode in... well technically one, but it was a 2-hour special with two tribal councils, so its almost like 2 episodes. This season takes place in some part of Africa called Gabon. Much like the past few seasons, Exile Island is back... although as they were showing footage of it, it did not seem like an island at all... more like a remote part of the area that they are staying at, but I could be wrong. The two tribes this time around are Kota and Fang. Host Jeff Probst had the two eldest players draw ...
