I found it hilarious when Jeff asked Fabio at the reunion whether it was intentional calculation to play the goofball (although I think he wanted to say the slow witted stoner) or if he really is like we saw on the show. His response was that he was playing the part, mostly..I think that's what he said because his answer was so convoluted and rambling, but I so wanted Jeff to ask him, "So, why are you still keeping up the act?" I'm personally shocked that everyone is going off at Jane. I liked her from the beginning and if she said anything out of line after she realized she was done for, I can't say I wouldn't have responded similarly or dissimilar to others I've witnessed in the same situation but folks didn't *hate* on them like it seems some here are. Anyway, I'm glad Jane won the fan favorite because she was certainly a joy for me to watch. After Jimmy Johnson left, I wasn't even interested i watching it had it not been for her.

Oh, I'm sorry, Happymom mentioned Dr. Sean and I latched onto that and his ridiculous Alphabet Killer strategy. You guys are correct, it was Greg that asked Kelly and Richard to pick a number between 1 and 10 at Final TC. Both ninnies in my book.

I like Jane and gave her quite a few votes. I don't think she did anything much out of line with how other non-winning Survivor contestants have behaved. She kinda thought she might have it in the bag, and she got thwarted, and she expressed bitterness about it. That happens. Quite frequently.

I actually applauded her dousing the fire when she realized she was toast! But if she hadn't been the one to actually start the fire in the first place, I would have been really peeved.

I think when she attacked Marty's children she was out of line.

I didn't think she attacked Marty's children. I thought she said she wouldn't let her kids play with MArty's because she wouldn't want them around Marty. Still, not nice and not really relevant to the game, but not a comment on Marty's kids -- a nasty comment about Marty.

I'm with Brenda. I think Jane didn't want her children around Marty. I watched the Ponderosa clips when Holly went to Ponderosa and everyone pretty much shunned her until the next day. I'm a little shocked that Chase got 4 votes because everyone was pissed about how she played with Chase and Sash.

She said nothing about them being around Marty. She said he was a disgrace as a father, and if she had children or grandchildren, she would not let them play with his children. Not a word about them not being around him. Just around his children, because apparently since he was a disgrace as a father, his children would be... what? disgraceful also? It was out of line. Even saying he was a disgrace as a father was out of line.

I guess it's how one interprets her comment Karuuna. She was slamming Marty at the time, so I didn't hear her comment as a slam on his kids, but just a further slam on him. That she wouldn't want her kids around him. Stupid comment either way, but I didn't see it as an insult to his kid. Just to him. Yes, SEan and Gregg were both morons. I wonder how Jeff would deal with something like that now? You know it would irritate him. I can't remember how Sean decided his final vote.

I think any time you bring family into it, or life outside Survivor, you're out of line. Whether it's calling into question parenting, or teaching, or whatever. It's just out of line. Not that I don't think Jane was impressive in a number of other ways, I was rooting for her early one. But that kind of stuff gets my goat, really.

http://www.tvguide.com/News/Survivor-Nicaragua-Sash-1027032.aspx Thought this TV Guide interview with Sash revealed a different side of him, and I'm glad he left the experience with a positive attitude.

Jane also disparaged Sash's mom. No excuse for that.

Jane definately was hitting below the belt. She was not a gracious loser at all.

Jane took it personal, and from that moment on I really disliked her. The comments she made had nothing to do with gameplay. When she made it personal, she displayed (to me) her real personality. To me, I think she is a bitter old lady. About the sympathy votes for Chase, I think there really were two sympathy votes. Original spoilers had the votes 7-2 in favor of Fabio.

I don't understand what you're saying about the sympathy votes, Costa. So either the spoiler was wrong, some people lied about who they voted for after they voted, or the votes were changed? I don't understand how the spoiler supports the theory of sympathy votes.

Opps, looks like Dan's comments at realitytvworld are interjected in Holly's interview.

Karuuna, if they counted the weekly votes that would be highly skewed, since it seems in the weekly votes THEY choose 3 or so of the survivors and only they can get votes.. so that would have given Jane a huge edge since she was one of those eligible week after week. THIS will explain Jud to us.. or not..
quote:Honestly, I have no clue what you were talking about at the reunion show. From color wheels, to human creative powers, to the government, to 55 percent or something. Were you just having an out of body experience right there? It’s so easy for me to slip into that kind of talk, but I’m very progressive minded. I’m thinking about the future and globalization — basically communication of the mass media and world art culture. I just think science and art and religion are all kind of forming together.

And it wasn't 60% of all viewers who voted for Jane.. just 60% of people taking the time to vote. I certainly would not have voted for Jane, but I didn't vote so I'm not part of that 60% OR the 40% of other voters and I suspect many many people who watched the show were not. And assuming there were multiple votes allowed per person, again, not necessarily 60% of the voters either.

If I recall correctly I went to the CBS site hoping to vote. But it was making me 'Log On' which I don't recall ever having to do in the past. I have been inundated with unnecessary e-mails lately so I didn't want to register for anything. So I didn't vote. Did anyone else have this issue...or am I mixing up my shows?

Bon, same for me. I went online to vote for Fabio. If possible, I probably would have voted a few times for him and once for Coach Jimmy. But I'm not going to take the time to register just to vote. Nor will I pay to text vote. I know several older folks, big fans of the show, who would never dream of texting or probably even voting online. Fabio is gifted...probably in the top 5% re: IQ. A lot of gifted kids think and talk the way he talked at the reunion. They tend to be concerned about world peace etc. at a very young age. Many gifted programs for public schools actually only identify as gifted those kids in the top 2 or 3%. Does anyone understand why Sash was not well liked out there?
