I think an interesting twist was the family challenge.If I was Denise I'd turn on Malcom and try to blindside him.Him picking the other two over her makes it seem as if that's where his allegiance will be.I'd be pissed if I was her,they had been together the entire show. I'm guessing it ends up Malcolm,Stupen and Abi.
The family challenge wasn't actually much of a twist because it always happens, IIRC, at least the last few seasons. They knew it was coming. It's not uncommon for the winner to pick the players they need to suck up to and skip over their closest friend. Denise likely understands it's pure strategy to get both, malcolm and her, ahead.
That was unexpected .I thought Denise would have been last choice.She just seemed to ride on coat tails to the win .Turned out to be a good strategy .. wouldn't have gotten my vote.Thought that was a dick move by Penner to give up Lisa to the jury ... may have cost her the votes she needed to win.Glad she still won some cash . Looks like Abi had a little enhancement work done
I was pretty surprised she won so easily, wasn't expecting that either. Thought Skoopin would have gotten a few votes at least. Even more surprised that Malcom would have still lost if he'd gone to the finals 3.
I was really surprised Penner outed Lisa like that. Her face was priceless though. I think she only won the other prize because of who she was. I don't see what was so great about her on the show. Malcolm should have won. I didn't think Lisa deserved to win because she only started playing toward the very end. Only made it that far because of Mike. Thought Mike would get more votes, but he started to settle down too late. all the jury members just remembered Mike the klutz from the first half of the season. Denise's win was a boring one because she just played herself, as a therapist, but it worked. Made no enemies early and went unnoticed, which was surprising, since she was one of the most well rounded players there, if not the most. They never asked the others about Kent being a pro athlete. i would have liked to see that come out during the final tribal council to see their reactions. I wonder what favorites will play next season...there really hasn't been any great new players and the old favorites have already been back once and some twice.
Read the favorites are going to be playing for their 2nd go around, so no 3 or 4 time players, curious to see who they are as well.
Don't click unless you want to know the returning castaways for the next season... Spoiler Andrea Boehlke, “Survivor: Redemption Island” Brandon Hantz, “Survivor: South Pacific” Brenda Lowe, “Survivor: Nicaragua” Corinne Kaplan, “Survivor: Gabon” Dawn Meehan, “Survivor: South Pacific” Erik Reichenbach, “Survivor Micronesia: Fans vs. Favorites” Francesca Hogi, “Survivor: Redemption Island” John Cochran, “Survivor: South Pacific” Malcolm Freberg, “Survivor: Philippines” Phillip Sheppard, “Survivor: Redemption Island”
A lot of nobodies, but the last three are good. I'm suprised #2 is doing it again. Unless he's changed, he can't win this game.
NO doubt...Id almost rather see his uncle back than put up with that kid again. At least Russell was entertaining to watch. Not surprised Denise won, she went thru all the councils without even being threatened to leave, and was a terrific competitor. Managed to do all that without really pissing off anyone. I dont believe the after-the-fact voting against Malcolm, if he had been in the final I still think he wins.
Other than Malcolm, that list is made up of a bunch of participants who were horrendous players. Not unintentional. The guy who gave away his idol, Hantz, Philip, and Cochran for starters. I think that lineup will be comedy gold.
Technically, Probst said the fans go up against their favorites, so I guess they can justify it by saying they picked them.
