Survivor: Fans v Faves - The Finale!
I can't even believe it's finale night already. This season of Survivor has gone way too fast for me, but don't they all? In addition to being a treat because of the faves aspect, for me it was just a nice break in the midst of the BB madness every week...
...and then there's the female empowerment aspect of the whole thing. These women definitely outplayed, outlasted and outsmarted their male counterparts... especially last week - Ouch! Gotta love it. Finally! Who are you rooting for tonight?
See ya in the comments... :) It's going to be a long night of Survivor! Yayyyy!

I'm looking for Amanda to win.
hi meredith :) i'd love that too... or Cirie.. or Parv... in that order
Three hour finale! Geez what did Mark Burnett do that Grodner hasn't done?
Hiya everybody btw!
Hi Mo! :)
I know... Burnett rocks the ratings. No great mystery there. ;) I think Survivor's always gotten a 3 hour finale, no?
I'm hoping Cirie is last woman standing tonight. She's definitely been puppetmaster this season.
Mo - Big time.
I'm here! Hehe hi everyone!
Go Amanda and Cirie!
I really can't recall it being 3 hours. In my memory, the first hour has been on the island and the second live at reunion. Three hours is like some AI-type finale.
Yayy! Hi Genie! :)
I'm so glad you're all here.
I missed you all!
Hi Genie Meredith Caro and other finale watchers. =D
I think it's always 2 hours for the show, then the hour of post show QnA... used to be with Bryant Gumble, now with Jeff Probst.
This game is good! They show those BB women a thing or two about competing! Woo!
Yeah these women are downright Amazons in comparison to the BB. I feel like the only woman that could maybe hang on Survivor Island is Janelle.
Maybe Daniele Donato too - she rocked the comps.. but she'd have to gain 15 pounds before she went to the island, for her own safety...
At the very least Survivor China was 2 hours: http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/cbs-announces-survivor-china-finale-reunion-show-air-dec-16-5953.php
True true. Dani Donato has the athleticism and the ability to withstand potentially uncomfortable, tense, awkward dynamics what with living in a house that includes your estranged father.
Hello everyone!
Happy Mother's Day. My two doggies gave me a great present -- My son called.
In BB competitions Natalie did pretty well too. I wasn't necessarily a fan but got to give her that.]
Wooo! Amanda one step closer!
Yesss! Great Challenge.. SOoooo Happy Amanda won it.
She would've been the most obvious elimination had Natalie won immunity.
Phew.
Hiya piper, Carolyn, Mo, and meredith!
It's ladies at the dish too tonight! hehe
Awww - Hi Piper :) Happy Mother's Day!
Genie - Seems appropriate, no? ;)
Amanda has won.... if she can get the other women to vote out Cirie. She'll win against Parv or Nat. If they leave Cirie in the game, I think she'll beat any of the other three.
Yes Caro, Amanda would have been eliminated tonight without immunity.
It didn't look like she was going to win it, but she did!
I love the Survivor challenges so much more than a lot of the BB ones.
I would prefer Amanda to win with Cirie 2nd.
Happy Mama's day. My kids* got me up really early then made me feed them and clean up after them.
And my momma's a vacay in Florida. =)
*My dog and two cats
It certainy is appropriate Caro!
So true Mo, unfortunately their best bet is to vote out Cirie at this point.
Hi Carolyn,
I so agree....
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I have a sinking feeling!
Hi Monyc,,,, I have my friends texting me to find out the out come..I have been sending out this blog site all day..lol I love this..All you gals rock.
Again.. PHEW!!
I was really concerned for Cirie there...
YES! Phew!
And uh, it's so obviously going to be F2 this season, if only because they haven't done the eliminated tribe mate ceremony.
and good job Natalie - Excellent sport!
Bye Natalie...
I'm glad Cirie is still in the game! Woo!
I just think all these women kick butt!
I was so shocked last week when Erik gace up that neckless.James is right erik is the dumbest survivor ever..Poor kid..Had no chance with those 4 women..I don't understand why the forget,,Out Last,Out WIT and Out Play..
You're so right Meredith. I think people underestimate the power of the mind! Especially in women.
i want Amanda or Parvati to win!! i think they played amazing.
Erik seems really sweet, naive, and a tad immature. He's like Survivor's Kaysar.
They are reaching their breaking points. It's got to be nerve wracking. :(
Poor Erik. He didn't know he was swimming with the sharks. I'm still flabbergasted at his incredibly naive move last week.
Geez. Fairplay. That feels like ages ago. Mary who?
What kind of through me for a loop is that Erik is supposed to be the biggest survivor fan. Jeff looked a be amazed when he said Eirk the tribe has spoken.
Pretty sure Amanda has this. Ahh the nerves, I can't even imagine what it must've felt like to compete in it.
That's it. Amanda has it!
Well, I gotta give them credit for creating a truly fair final immunity challenge...
Oh no! Cirie came so close! I think she would have taken Amanda with her, but I'm not so sure what Amanda will do. My guess is that she will not take Cirie. Hope I'm wrong.
Good for Amanda. I think that considering that, as she said, she's pretty much played this game two times consecutively and both instances she's made it to F2 then she definitely deserving. She's an MVP of sorts.
Survivor challenges are bs free, I have noticed.
OK I had to go do laundry whats happening???
Howdy Ms C and all Survivor lovers!
Balls!!!
Amanda just won final immunity and I have sneaky suspicion she's taking Parvati with her to the end.
Amanda knows Parvati doesn't have many friends on the jury.
PS - That was one lucky chicken they let loose!
;)
OK I had to go do laundry what's happenng??
If I were her (and I'm a Cirie fan so that definitely influences), I'd vote by the final immunity. In other words, Parv should go because she was first out. But of course, that's not in Amanda's best interest.
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Way to go Amanda!!!!
"She pissed way more people off than I did"
That was dumb. I hope it costs her her game. Hee hee hee!
Parv: "She pissed way more people off than I did."
Umm, girl? What are you thinking saying things like that?
lol Mo. Great minds!
Amanda also has to remember that Cirie can also work her magic as a member of the jury and could influence the way the tribe members cast their votes.
If Eliza rolls her eyes anymore they will plop off.
Does the jury seem very grim tonight? Notice that Natalie didnt want to look at them?
Come on pick Cirie!
Awww. I'm so sad she picked Parv. Just could never like that girl.
Ok... all those tears had me thinking she was voting Parvati out...
I'm sad to see Cirie out, since she masterminded the whole game, but I do believe Amanda just guaranteed herself the win.
I agree Caro. Was the best move she could make gamewise. Wish Cirie could win something though. :(
Yep, A's gut was and has been right.
I wish they give Cirie that jury prize though.
Jus' poppin' in. ...
So sorry to see Ceire go, but I knew that if she didn't win immunity, she'd go out in third place again.
:-(
Does anyone think that Mark will give,Jonathon and James anything because they got hurt and could not finish the game?
Hey Cliff! :)
Nice to see you! Hope you had a great time at the show.
These women are stunning au natural. Do you think they have them fill out questionaires, then hand them noxzema and tissues and ask to see them sans makeup?
meredith - hmm.. i dunno. i don't think so.
Ladies and gents, we have "under the bus"!
Drink!
Mo - lol. I agree... It's funny, when they brought in the jury at final 4, i was thinking the same thing, and how much prettier I found Natalie minus makeup...
Cliff - hehehe
Do they tell the jury members not to smile during the speeches and q&a?
genie - i don't think so... but I was very surprised by Cirie's expression throughout.
The jury look like the grim reapers. Brrrr.
I would be soooo bitter if I was her. I mean think about how fresh her wound is... I bet her torch is still smoking.
true, Mo.
Monyc you are so right about the women being stunning au natural. But I'm not jealous! Oh who am I kidding? I am envious. I'm blonde with blonde eyelashes and eyebrows! But then the night shots would be better, right? I would love to play survivor but I think I'm too old for the viewing audience.
I hear the bus...
Is Natalie on some medication? Umm, hello? WTH did that question come from?
All I know is that I would need my own personal waxer for these potentially ruly brows, a caseload of contact solution and hair gel.
Nat's questions = appropriate?s
Ooh, "under the bus"!
Drink! hic
Nat had the hots for Parv! Iiiiinteresting. And here I thought Kathy was a queer!
Man! Cirie lost at least 25 pounds this time around...
I love Cirie's outfit. I want to be her friend.
(King) Ozzy gets the last word?
Listening to the jury members, I have no idea who will get the million dollars...
Awwww!!!
Awwwww gotta love a romance! Ozzy's speech to Amanda was so sweet, coming on the heels of him tearing Parv to bits...
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Btw, I think that it's Amanda's win. I think they're just venting and giving them a hard time. But that it was pretty much a given.

Seriously, after Natalie and Parv's interaction, I see millions of straight dudes saving that one and putting it in endless loop in their minds.
I hope Amanda (and Ozzy) win! Seems like they have either way! :)
I'm a sucker for romance!
CLiff... lmao!
Umm is it July yet?
Awww...I want Ozzie to win. Win Amanda that is. So cute!
haha, cliff
CLiff - you must be thrilled for "Little Miss Blurry Bottom" ;)
Oh, BTW, Doug just walked in and said that he figured out why there is such a ruckus happening in front of the Ed Sullivan theater right now.
It's the freakin' finale there! Sheesh. So close and yet so far!
Mo - No!! It's not! Know how I can tell? I'm still needing to sleep 10 hours a night!
Please don't rush it. :P
Get your sleep in while you can Carolyn! Yeesh woman, you so deserve it! :)
I <3 Amazzie! LOL.
Cliff! Get your ass over there! Take some pics!
Is Nat out?
Oooohkaaaay! I guess I can carry on with SYTYCD and The Mole.
I LOVE that cheesy Probst delivery thing. I bet it only tricks 8 year olds but I LOVE it.
I do not even recognize Parv in make-up
Oh My G-D!
I'm stunned.
SERIOUSLY Cliff you said it.
Oh and Amanda got those earrings from a vendor in Union Square.
Parvati should have won on outfit and makeup alone.
WOW! Shocker!
I don't want to believe it!
Ok. That was the final blindside!
I heart SYTYCD!
SYTYCD =??
I bet it was Cirie that decided it. Well then again, Parv had all those faves that she became friends with on the jury. I bet that totally worked in her favor too.
Oh well, Amanda has Ozzie! Gotta look at the positive...
So You Think You Can Dance?
Genie I'm counting the days until I see Danny and Sabra. =D
Carolyn: So You Think You Can Dance!
Wowsa! That was a complete shocker.
I thought for certain Amanda had it in the bag. Maybe if she had taken Cirie ... nah ... Cirie would've won it.
I feel sorry for Amanda, but it looks like her sad dog puppy eyes only work for Ozzie. Soon we might here the little patter of ozzlettes running around though.
Thanks again for a wonderful blog experience!
;)
Mo. Me too! I wanted to buy tickets to their tour but it was sold out in like minutes! I was so bummed!
I like Probst's hair.
Carolyn, thank you so much for this Survivor Dish. You are so awesome.
I hope we can see the vote breakdown.
Damn! Who's wearing the loud bracelets!?
I hate Amanda's makeup and hair. These people tend to look better on the island for some reason.
Weird.
piper... thank you for being a part of it... You're the ones who make it awesome.
I bet Amanda's second guessing choosing Parv over Cirie.
Carolyn. You rock. Seriously! Thank you for providing a forum for us reality addicts! Hehehe.
Mo - Agreed. Parv gave much better Jury QnA than Amanda, but Cirie would've been even better...
And so ends Survivor - Blindside.
:::blush:::
Thanks, Genie
I'm just glad this blog remains intimate... nice small group. :)
There's a reason I don't publicize this one at all...
I like it just the way it is.
Survivor Finale = Most commercials in one hour on TV. :)
Argh I hate to say night but it's time to watch the rest of the show from my bed.
Thanks for this great forum, C. And thanks to everybody for a season of fun commenting. Hasta BB or Survivor 17.
-MoNYC
All you ladies rock.Thanks so much for the fun night..Carolyn I will see you on BB10!!! WOOOO HOOOOOO..I have an Idea about BB. I think they should do a 50 and over BB,,,lol I would last 1 week...
I like the intimacy of this blog and I bet it's less straining not to have to moderate it!
The rest of this show is not interesting to me. lol
So I bid you goodnight and until we exchange comments again! :)
The OTHER Survivor romance we didn't know about?!?!
What, you mean Chet and James?
nite Mo :) cya on FB.
Meredith :)
Hi Seven
Genie :)
I think I'm gonna lay down for the rest too...
See you all back on the BB sites. ;)
Cliff - I missed that... Was Probst speaking while I was typing? ;) Cheeky bugger.
Good night all. Talk with you again in a couple of months.
Hi Carol.
Thanks for the blog and Happy mothers day to anyone who might be one.
Oh, Mary and that dude.
I was secretly he was going to reveal my torrid affair with Jonathan.
Sadly, Jonathan doesn't know about it.
Yet.
hehehe :)
I think that Erik is a sweetheart! But, such a bad move. I still love James!!!
I was glad that Cirie, Parv, and Amanda stayed together til the end, but I was very happy that Parvati won! :)
I wanted any of them but mean ol' fake boobed Natalie (is it something in the name?!) But, I did prefer Parv or Cirie to Amanda. There's something about her I didn't love. But, the Ozzy stuff was CUTE! :)
