Doesn't anyone watch the Price Is Right?

If you're asked to pick a number from 1 to 1,000 and your opponent picks "3", you go one higher and pick "4"

Clarence had the line of the night:

I must say, most of these Survivor clean up pretty good. I hardly recognized Lindsay and Jessie, but they looked really good.

Bryant is a fool. I can't believe he mispronounced Ethan's last name. I'm happy with who won, and glad to see that the Colby card was played instead of the Kelly card.

My thoughts exacly. Unless Kelly would want them to be close to 0, 4 would be enough to win. I thought it was stupid of Ethan to pick 888...

"The dumb one, like Amber..."
Wow! That has to be the most NonPC statement on TV in a long while. But then it came from Bryant so... no big surprise.

For some reason that reminded me of the episode of Family Guy where Peter is on Survivor and accidentally knocks down the stage set to find the set of The Price Is Right.


Spoiler:
It's also a refreshing change to see someone who actually deserves it to win.

Wow! Survivor 4 will take place in:

Spoiler:
the Marcasius(sp) Islands, where they won't be given food, water, or fire. They'll have to truly hunt/fish/fend for themselves this time around.


Amber was Jerri's buddy, she was on the cover of Stuff magazine I think. She was easy on the eyes, very sweet, nice looking girl.

I really didn't care much for either of the final 2. Actually, there might have been 3 people I liked over the whole course of the show. The "trick" they used to make it seem like they were still in Africa and no time had passed was pretty dumb. Of course, Tom probably still hasn't bathed but for the others it must have been hard. Especially the men with the beards. I would have hated that.

It says a lot about how bad this Survivor was when my feelings about who won were most influenced by the stupid, mean-spirited, idiotic, juvenile, crass comments and questions posed by MOST of the jurors.

For the first time since Survivor 1, there were people in the reunion that I didn't even remember.


Hopefully, getting back to an island and getting a better group of people will bring this show back. It was not deserving of the 3 hour treatment that it got this time. I got bored quite a bit.

Finally, it's not even close to a big deal, but they need to vote BRYANT off of the post-Survivor show and get someone in there that isn't so boring and annoying.

wtg, Ethan or Eat-Hen as Big Tom likes to say.

Sorry if someone already said this in that sea of black above, but I still can't stand Bryant Gumbel doing the aftershow. Probst knows them, Probst does everything, and then Fatty Boombatty swoops down with his "Look at me ... I'm on the worst morning show in television, yes worse than Depierta America on Univision" and takes over like he knows these people and we give a rat's ass what he thinks.

Oh well ... not as good as the other Survivors, but I still enjoyed it, and shamefully, I'll probably watch the next one, if nothing else, just to not watch whatever lameass sh|tcoms NBC is running at the time.

I'm pretty sure Survivor 4 starts the day after the Grammys.
Like February 28th I think!?

Holy.....

I was quite surprised when the votes were read off. I was utterly convinced that they were reading the votes in Africa, and it turned out to be the studio audience. WOAH!

I thought it was a fairly satisfying ending to a fairly bland season of Survivor. At least nothing went like I had thought it would. IMO, Survivor is still one of the most entertaining shows on TV, even though this one wasn't nearly as good as the last two. I'm pumped to see them going back to an island. That place looks stunning! Plus, skimpy clothes again. I just hope they get better people for the next one.

BTW, thought this season has been the worst of the three, I really thought that African cleansing ceremony they did was awesome.

it may have been in the studio, but it was NOT live ("live from Los Angeles"??? puhleeeez!). i was watching it here on the west coast and they already showed it 3 hours earlier on the east coast. i don't mind if they do that, but don't call it live when it's not.

hahn: It probably WAS live on the east coast... Usually they dont bother changing the title graphics for live shows even if they are tape delayed in the west.

I'm VERY excited about Survivor 4. Not only is in in a very exotic and exciting looking locale (the Marcasus islands) but this time they actually have to SURVIVE!! They did make it look like there is a ton of food available though... but I wonder if they'll be able to use their torches as fire this time around, or if they'll have to extinguish them after each TC and build fires from scratch each time?
Hopefully they have a cast that is more likable than the Africa... I didnt really connect with a lot of the peopel like I did during the first 2 seasons.

A little off the subject...

In the Louisville Courier Journal last week, it was reported that Kim Powers will be featured in an upcoming PLAYBOY. Is this true?

Well, maybe we'll get to see her abs again since she didn't want to show them during the wrap-up show last night. (She does have some killer abs, cute butt and legs).

I really doubt it. I mean, she wouldn't even show her abs on the show last night. Of course, maybe she's under contract not to . I think Kelly could be our Playboy girl this time around.

Well, she was also wearing a one piece outfit. To show her abs would mean hiking her skirt above her waist, and I'm sure she would rather not do that, no matter how much we want to see it.

I really enjoyed last night's show and reunion.

Kim J. got lucky with the last answer. They all guessed it.
I will give her credit for the final immunity though.
I still can't figure out how a 56 year old woman could beat a professional athelete and a 38 year old guy.

I think she had a better chance of winning if she picked Lex. He made some enemies where Ethan did not. Ethan was under the radar the whole time and won some challenges too.

Some observations:

Why would Ethan tell Brandon he deserved the least to win ?
Even he he felt that way, lie and say Kelly.

Kelly is a big sore loser ! Another idiot (like Greg) with their stupid pick a number game.
Kim is a bigger idiot for picking 3 then Ethan makes an even dumber guess with 888 !! I couldn't believe it. He should have picked 4. This way if the number is from 4 - 1,000 he wins. He got very lucky the number was 568.

That was a great suprise with the jury vote being in LA and not Africa. They fooled me too.

I really hated Lindsey during Survivor but she looked HOT at the reunion show!


Kim P. also looked hot.

One of the best lines was Brandon's "They made me look like a raving bitch" !

Clarence's line was funny but could you imagine if a white person said something like that against a black person ? Double standard.

S4 looks really good. It looks like paradise. Africa was by far the hardest. At least S4 contestants will have water they could swim and bath in, a beach, trees for shade, fruit available to eat.

Shameless Brandon

How shameless is Brandon? In the 'confessional' he admitted to relishing the chance to vote against a person as revenge, and he referred to the person as a 'him'. Ethan, obviously?

Then Brandon asks the question. Ethan, correctly, busts on Brandon, because he knows Brandon is voting for Kim anyway. Brandon then claims that he was going to vote for Ethan until Ethan busted on him. If that's true, what was Brandon saying in his confessional? Brandon tried to make Ethan look stupid, but the true moron is Brandon. What an unctuous character.
