OMG, he does look like a Gibb, Sharinia! Or another one of those shaggy haired 70s singers like Shaun Cassiday or Leif Garrett!

What a loving parting gift mom gave to her grieving daughter. That was a bizarre story.

James is adorable and so is his dad!

You know, I do think the faves had a huge, huge, HUGE advantage over the fans on many levels and I'm not sure I want to see it done this way again.

Yay James!!! He got the fan fave $100,000 from Sprint!

Other two top vote-getters were Amanda and Ozzy. :-)

I am so so happy that James got the 100k. He gets my blood heated up.

Nickovtyme, I feel the same. The reunion show was very flat IMO, especially when the season was so good. It was a real anti-climax. Do we ever find out who voted for who?

Do not agree with her winning...not at all

I felt completely let down with the outcome

Great season - terrible ending

Yaaaaaay James! If he can get on Survivor 8 more times, and win fan favorite $100,000 each time, then it will be the equivalent of actually winning for once! LOL

I think Amanda really did lose it again with her jury answers. That one to Cirie was a no brainer, and she went all tar-baby with it. I'm very disappointed Cirie didn't get the 100 grand, I'm shocked she wasn't in the top 3. I thought the vote was supposed to be who played the best game, or who was the best strategic player or something like that. Not who did you like most of all. I do think Cirie was unreasonably pissed at Amanda, though - if Cirie would have won the last challenge, she would have taken Parvati with her to finals and she wouldn't have apologized for it, either except in conjunction with a "but I can't beat you."

Fairplay's baby looked strange to me, I had trouble figuring out whether she had a birth defect. It was probably just the weird camera angle. Hops in handbasket.

Great season...until the final results were announced. Totally disappointed that Pavarti won. I lost all respect for Eliza and Jason for voting for Parvati. Anyone else catch Eliza going up to Parv after the vote and telling her she loved her game? And she thinks Amanda is fake? Jason was as clueless in his final vote as he was in not playing the HII. It's laughable that he considers himself to be as good if not a better survivor that Ozzy. I expected Natalie to vote for Parv, since she's an 10-year older version of Parvarti. Anyone catch her saying she's her own biggest fan? No kidding Nat, you're a legend in your own mind.

Both Cirie and Alexis were bitter <100> with their votes. Guess they couldn't let it go that Amanda eliminated them before they were able to eliminated her. Funny how they all thought during the game that Amanda was the biggest threat but when it came time to cast their votes they chose the flirt that didn't have to fight at all to stay in the game. If Alexis really thinks that Pavarti is a good role model for young women, she is as jaded as Nat and Parv. After Cirie's vote for Parv, I'm so happy that Cirie not only didn't win $100K vote but that she didn't even finish in the top three. Oh well, prior to the results I had this as the best Survivor season ever. After the announcement of the winner, it doesn't make my top five.

this is what Cirie wanted to hear from Amanda. or at least that she played a better game than Parvati ....

Amanda should have complimented Cirie's game, she could have even said that Cirie & Parv both played strong games and she was pained by having to chose, that she appreciated Cirie's loyalty and was so very sorry, and that she was lucky to be sitting where she is

exactly, Sharinia, Cirie didn't want to hear Amanda says that Parvati played a better scheming game than she did. Amanda lost Cirie's vote right there. So then Cirie could say, since Parv played a better game, then I'll give her my vote. Game ... right there.

once again Amanda had america's vote and once again, she blew it with the jurors during that final TC.

I also am dissapointed in who won. Amanda deserved it over Parv. Sorry, but Parv was never in jeopardy of being evicted like Amanda was. Amanda also won way more challenges then Parv.

Did anyone catch when Gabon starts?

Well, after all my rooting against Parv for the entire season, I was actually glad to see her win over Amanda. I never thought I would say that until tonight but like the jury, I found the tears fake.

Lilfair -- what did I miss? What grieving mom? I was grading papers while watching and am totally clueless what your comment refers to. TIA.

Teach, IIRC, I think that might have been another story James recounted about mourners while he was on the job.

Someone call central casting, costume and hair - please tell them that the 70s were over 30 years ago.

Amanda lost it (again) in the jury questions. The trick with the jury - who all hate your guts for making it longer than they did, is to stroke their egos but also show you played the game, and remind them it is a game. Show your key moves, and compliment them as a threat to your game or your alliance. Tell Cirie that you couldn't beat her in final two and that is why you had to vote her out. Tell Eliza that you knew she was a threat after the merge (cause she said she didn't like your opponent, you should have jumped on that and stroked her ego).

Amanda has no sense of outwit.

I agree, this reunion show had no "pizzaz". And the news of Mikey B's mom was a huge downer.

I think, in keeping with Mother's Day, it was a gesture towards Mikey B. with Jeff P. acknowledging his Mom on the part of Survivor. A whole LOT of Moms probably rescheduled their big day in order to watch the 3-hrs.

Personally, I liked this reunion better than most. More of the players got to talk, instead of total focus on the last 3 players or a couple of love-birds.

Yeah, after such a good season, this wasn't as great as I'd hoped.

And wow.. Cirie really could have won that final immunity, how sweet that would have been..

I think Amanda's petulant reaction when Cirie said she'd been bottom of most alliances probably hurt her with the jury, but I still hoped James was correct that Amanda would win. BUT I think once again, she really failed in her responses to the jury and even in her opening statement.

And she also underestimated what she said about Parvati playing a more social game.. yeah she was more likely to get the fan votes, Amanda!

I also was dying for a tie so we could see what they would have done!

The smile Amanda got when Ozzy spoke may have been better than a million.

I don't get why Ozzy was in the top three for that money, huh? Amanda, maybe because there were leaks that Parvati won.. but I'm happy for James.

And after Jeff said there was a second romance, I had forgotten the one he actually meant and at the end just before they announced, the way Alexis was leaning on James, I wondered if they had something going?

I have to go back and read this thread, but wonder if we know all the votes yet.
