I think that they are not starving people now the way they did in the earlier games, remember Africa, where everyone was fenced in a barren, dusty compound with no food and water and hungry lions were roaring outside the rickety fence? And was it Australia where everyone lost so much weight they were all skeletal and diseased-looking? And how in some of the games, they had no water (for a variety of reasons) for up to a week?

The island areas where they are now filming the shows have seafood and edible land plants available. Of course, you still have to go GET them (Johnathan/Ozzy), but I believe TPTB have recognized the need for better nutition to be available.

Catfat - Fiji is/was having political unrest, but I don't think they have actual cannibals on the loose. CBS is messing with your mind!

I read this post at SS I thought it articulated many of my same thoughts: Hi all, I've been reading a bit but have not posted before, so don't be too mean if you can help it. :P After the final vote was announced I was surprised at how disappointed I was that Ozzy hadn't won. I liked Yul well enough from the beginning and I thought he was a deserving champion. But I realized what got to me was that Ozzy had played such a pure survival game and, like Parvati, I was captivated by it. Others have played pure survival games but didn't get nearly as far. Of course, I understand that for Ozzy to get where he did, he had to have some luck. Things had to break his way at certain times. But he played so pure and straight up in a game that doesn't reward purity and he came one vote away from taking it all. I just don't see that happening again. I know a lot of people like all of the lying and manipulating and backstabbing and stuff, but I loved the straight up game, the put your whole heart into it, full speed ahead, enjoy every moment of the experience kind of game that Ozzy played. And he played it so magnificently, it was an absolute joy to watch. I would pay to see him compete in a water challenge. There was one moment in one of the challenges...I don't know which episode or what but it was one where you had to run over barrels in the water and a bunch of other stuff and retrieve something or other in little sacks to bring back to land, probably puzzle pieces, a lot of the challenges involved puzzles, didn't they? And Ozzy was romping through it while everyone else was floundering. Oz probably could have gotten through the thing twice by the time anyone else finished one round. There was a moment where he tossed the bag ahead of him and glided into the water and he wasn't like a dolphin but something sleeker and faster, more like a sea otter or something. He was just so quick, it was truly amazing. I could create an infinite loop of that one moment and watch it over and over again all day and have my breath taken away by the movement every time. It was, for me, the most breathtaking moment of any of the Survivor series, like seeing a split second of perfection.... I know Ozzy's said maybe he should have spent less time fishing and more time politicking but I, for one, am glad he didn't. For me, it would have ruined his game. I love that he basically pulled himself through practically on his own. I just loved it. It was my favorite game played by any of the Survivors in any of the seasons. Aw, that was probably way too wordy for this board but I just was so inspired by Ozzy. I thank him for the pleasure he provided by playing the game as he did, pure and full of heart.

After the merge, Ozzy was the target. Adam won immunity. If Yul had not flipped Jonathon, Ozzy would have been voted out. 'squeek'

You're a good sport, Trueheart. There's an interesting comment in that Sucks thread. After Ozzy's tribe threw that IC, Billy insisted on picking Yul to send to Exile Island, which of course led to Yul finding the Idol. I guess Ozzy's strategy turned out to be much better than I thought!

funny how we all have different perspectives. I found the Final Four all interesting people...well other than Becky whom we barely saw throughout the entire season. I thought Candace, Adam and Parvati completely boring to watch. It was like watching the 13 yr olds flirt in the backyard tent. I detested Adam and his mannerism of a big bloated smile, then the tongue would roll over the teeth, into the cheek and ALWAYS come OUT OF HIS MOUTH and hang out the corner. Grossed me out everytime. Interesting that Ozzy told others he was going to build a Surfer's Slacker hangout. During the final questioning I thought Jonathan made a great point about wondering what a 25 yr old would do with a million. Ozzy looked like he was scrambling to think of something to say about the money...and all that came out was some silly crap about going to school. Like that takes a million dollars? He obviously was not the speaker Yul was and Ozzy seemed quite unprepared for some of the questions. On a final note, I LOVED the way the girls seemed so unworthy to be in that final three "fire comp". It is rare that I belly laugh from TV but wow, I was just killing myself laughing. Jeff sounded so disgusted when he said that they would now be given Matches. I was practically crying when Sundra held up her two boxes EMPTY of matches. That was absolutely hilarious. The looks on everyone's face when the camera would pan around. By the way, I dont believe for one minute that Parvati suddenly had a great revelation and decided Ozzy deserved a vote. I believe her naked hot tub interlude with Ozzy made her think that maybe she had a chance after the show was over. I'm sure we all know about Ozzy's assets. Could have swayed her vote.

You're a good sport, Trueheart. LOL Trust me...I tried to think of a proper argument...my ego was smarting from your response! I thought that I had a quite intelligent argument, but you parried my comments nicely. I even had to laugh at myself when I read your comment.....there is something quite satisfying about be put so well in one's place. Thanks.

The only reason I was a little dissapointed that Yul won over Ozzy was that he implied that "HE LET OZZY WIN" all those challenges .. yep he may have slacked off a bit in one or two of them .. but in my mind OZZY still won them ... Yul is not the swimmer that Ozzy is ..

I think Yul worked his butt off trying to win. He lacked the coordination and agility that Ozzy has.

I think that no one wanted to go with Adam (or earlier Adam and Parvati) because they thought Yul or Ozzy deserved to win AND the longer then kept old Raros in the game that game THEM chances to win immunity and had ONE RARO been in F2 or F3, they would have won. I'm quite sure that Candice would have voted for a Raro, not for Yul (or Ozzy) And I suspect that Ozzy was happy to see Sundra lose that final competition and go on the jury. He might have had a chance with her vote (he didn't) and having Becky in F3 absolutely took a voe from Yul. Becky would have voted for Yul. I also wonder if Ozzy might have sealed his fate by mentioning how he got rid of Billy, during that final questioning?
