Roppie, I agree this cast seemed likable and even though there were blindsides and a bit a sack talking by some they seemed much more mature even at Pondarosa. TPTB haven't picked a good cast, for my liking in a while. Coach is living in his own little world, isn't he. I'm good with any of the f4 winning but I liked Taj from the start and Stephen too so hope one of em wins but from the spoilers here looks like JT is the winner. I'm curious if Jeff gives Coach a hard time at the reunion show.

Tnt, you are missing a great hour of tv. The reunions are always great!! Esp since JP has hosted them! Tonite's show should be awesome! I hope JT wins!!!! I just adore him. He should take Erinn to the end not Stephen but I think taking Stephen really shows his character.

I don't think you will see Jeff give Coach too much of a hard time, because Jeff loves Coach ... not necessarily the person, but the Survivor Character he is (or pretends to be). Jeff seems to think that Coach is "Financial Gold". I think Jeff gave Coach a lot of leeway in the Tribal Councils for viewing entertainment, that I have not seen him give too much of in the past to other players that have interrupted him. Letting Coach tell his poem, to me, is a good example.

Hmmmmm .... a last minute change by TDT says they could easily be convinced that the F4 boot might be Taj, and that F3 is Erinn. They really do not see any sense to it since they are convinced that the F2 is Stephen and JT........but that's the latest, and you know I bring it over!

Hmmm, I kinda like baboons. Coach...not so much. I don't believe a word of what Coach said about his boss. I think that the original story was right that he was fired because he didn't tell them where he was going or how long he would be gone. Maybe he's hoping that Mark Burnett will give him money like he did Denice the Lunch Lady.

Oh pleeeease - don't give HIM any more money than they already have to. With all of his "proclaimed" accomplishments, he should be banking pretty good. Also, he had to have had money from somewhere for all of his "proclaimed" worldly adventures.

He also has a published book on his travels down the Amazon. You can even buy it from Amazon.com lol You can't have the personality that Ben Wade has and people you work for not know it. They knew who and what he was when they hired him. My own brother has the same delusional traits that Wade does and people still hire him. They may call him quirky but he still gets jobs. He works construction so he isn't anywhere permanently. lol

He just takes "self love" to a new level. I've been associated with some pretty self absorbed folks in my life, but this guy takes the cake. I would/could never work with or associate with someone like this.

I need to apologize. I, in no way, ever intended to be disrespectful to baboons!

Another season of Survivor over, and what a season it was. I enjoyed this season tremendously and am content with the outcome. I wanted to express my thanks to Alaginger for her hard work in bringing us clues and spoilers, and for everyone else who has contributed as well. Thanks all for the banter and laughs, it contributed greatly to my enjoyment. I enjoy reading the spoilers when we don't know the outcome before the game begins and I appreciate everyone's contributions. Many thanks all! I'm already looking forward to Samoa! On to Big Brother!!!

I was very pleased with the outcome of this year's Finale and Reunion Show. The whole season was good.......but I personally think that Coach hogged so much attention, that a lot of the personalities of the other players got swept under the rug. It was good for the one season though, but I would prefer he not show up again. I can't stand a "look at me, look at me" centerstage hog!!!

I agree, Coach got way too much airtime. But it wasn't his fault. Jeff seemed to think Coach was good TV. Jeff dropped the ball on this one. His instincts are usually better. IMO, that wasn't the case. I love a good love to hate character but Coach wasn't in that category for me. He was more of the I can't wait till he's voted off category so I don't have to hear him talk anymore. I barely remembered the people that were voted off early on. They should do a Survivor partners with people from past seasons. Partners are voted off together. It could make for some good challenges and interesting alliances with other partners. Maybe 8 partners (16 people) with 1 tribe from the start, or not. My memoy is shot and I can't remember any other 2 person alliance that were as close as JT and Stephen, any help with this? Did Ruppert have a close buddy? I was impressed with JT's loyalty although I thought he'd probably win easily against either Stephen or Erin. Actually I thought he'd beat Stephen more easily than Erin. I thought maybe there was a chance that her old tribe might just want their tribe having the winner.

Lil ... I love your idea of a past-partner Survivor. There have been a lot of famous duos, whether they made it to the end or not. I'm going to have to think about this one ... great idea.

I think both Probst and Wade are to blame. I think Wade came on the show intending to play a character. And unfortunately, Probst latched on to the "good TV" thing without realizing that it really wasn't. Wade ruined the season for me, and I stopped watching a few of the shows prior to when he got kicked off because of it.

I agree with everything Costacat just said.
