Who will become the next Rebel Billionaire?
If anyone still cares, will it be Sara or Shawn?
I have a feeling Shawn will since he has the same adventuresome spirit and he is a risk taker just like Richard.
Sara is good but I think she is kind of conservative.

That's what I'm thinking.
But can Richard overcome his initial feelings about Shawn? Probably, since he had several opportunities to get rid of him throught the show.

This show started out pretty entertaining but it got so bad [boring]. It is edited poorly and the challenges became pretty stupid. We have had a hard time wading through the last few episodes.
I thought the publicity stunt challenge was funny, mainly because the guys thought they could get George W. Bush to come to their soccer match and the girls thought it would be funny to marry off that one girl. My husband uttered a funny during this episode when they revealed the intended bride was a "model". "What is she, a hand model?"
We both think she looks kind of mannish.

I hope Richard pick Sara because I like Sara a little better than Shawn. But I have a feeling Richard will pick Shawn. Shawn was on the chopping block for elimination a few times and Richard didn't get rid of him when he has several opportunity to do so.

I wasn't expecting much for the 2-hour finale, but as I watched it, I couldn't stop until it was done because Branson really got the rest of the gang to put Shawn and Sara through the ringer, and then the final challenge became a stalemate, and then Branson was forced to pick, so he did, and then he put the winner through another challenge immediately before offering the winner the job. I don't think that time of trying to make a decision was all that fun for the winner.
I did crack up at the end where the winner made the mistake of sitting in Branson hammock, and Branson had to assert his dominion over that hammock.

Branson picked Shawn. He gave Shawn $1 million check and then gave him a choice of either keeping that check or giving it up for a coin toss and potentially for a much greater reward.
Shawn turned down the coin toss and Branson said that's the right choice. So he gave Shawn a job at his company.
I kinda like the last test Branson gave Shawn. It shows the viewer that 50% risk is too great for Shawn to take. And too great for Branson to accept, if Shawn had taken the 50% risk (coin toss).

I thought this was a pretty decent show, though it did start out strong and get a little weak in the middle. Great ending, though interesting that Shawn kept on trying to get Gabe to go with him, and even after Gabe chose Sara twice in a row, Shawn STILL chose Gabe to come with him. Pretty cool, in a way...

I guess that's one of the things I like about Shawn. He doesn't seem to hold a personal grudge against someone else. He picked Heather to be his advocate even though she bad mouthed him behind his back. And like someone else already said, he picked Gabriel to be his number 2 even though Gabriel picked Sara over him twice when he had a chance to be an advocate for either Sara or Shawn.

While Gabe chose Sara twice, don't forget that he was the one who gave Shawn the most important counsel during the entire show, putting the million dollars in perspective before the coin flip.

I don't think it was popular enough to warrant a dvd release.
Branson should have given a bonus prize and a date with those two hottie flight attendants.
What was their purpose on the show?

There were two hot fight attendants in the show? Man, I must be getting old not noticing them. I think if there are hot looking people on a show, the purpose is to draw viewers. All else being equal, viewers prefer to watch good looking people on screen.
