Making sure Survivor watchers like me don't forget the 2 hour season finale and the reunion show are both on tonight. Lets see if Russell Can slither his way up again :)

Russell will never win one million dollars from any jury. He would be a brilliant player if "surviving" were the only objective. However, getting votes from people you bested in game is what wins the million dollars. Russell shets on people to survive in the game and people DO NOT LIKE getting shet on. The fact that he didn't get that lesson from his first failure says a LOT about the guy.

Yes, but hes doing something right considering how far he made it in both seasons. Also, as long as a Hero doesn't make it to final two, there shouldn't be a problem with Russell losing necessarily. If a Hero gets to final two, the entire jury is Hero, so wont have a chance.

I watched it once, back in the first season when it was all the hype.
I felt totally ripped off, show has absolutely nothing to do with "surviving".
I've been through, and later taught survival skills and courses in the Utah desert. Trust me, any idiot can survive quite comfortably in the circumstances they put them in, a nice tropical island with plenty of rain, vegetation, fish, fruit and shelter is a walk in the park as far as surviving. They should throw them into something like the USAF or SAS survival school and see how they fare. The show was actually just about a bunch of "look at me" attention seeking, drama queens. I found watching it agonizing rather then entertaining or educational. I doubt it's improved in the years since.

First two season's were alot about survival, after that they made it alot easier to win food and such ( i don't know if legalities made it change ) after the third season i started to lose interest, seems more scripted now

Heck, i did not realized they still do the show. The first three or four season was hot then gone down hill as soon as other worthless reality shows start appearing.

Dude, Russell so shoulda won....As we can see he is the best Survivor ever. Btw, did you catch the date of next season? I couldn't hear Jeff when he said it.

Next season will be airing in the fall, Russell had some good points about the game. The game isnt flawed but the way they decide the winner sure is. Sandra didnt outplay or outwit or out last, as far as im concerned it becomes who has the biggest axe to grind at the end. "Hey you outplayed me so your not getting the money." Never was there a less deserving winner IMO. :mad: :mad: :frown:

Never watched an episode of it in my life. And frankly I find the whole thing disgusting. I ESPECIALLY hated the season they aired on Peleliu. They were using WAR WRECKAGE for set dressing. Good @$%&ing GOD do they not have any respect?

Jerks! Not you saxman the idiots that aired it in Peleliu. Too bad they did not hit a unexploded 16 inch shell.

This show always has been so far from actual surviving it was never on my watch list...in fact I didn't know it was still coming on.
They should have an actual survival show where you go out in the same way that Man vs. Wild or Survivorman did/does. That would be a kick bellybutton show to watch.

haha I always wondered who watched that garbage.

no way does russell deserve the million. No way. Sandra got it because the jury hated russell and resented parvati being so close to him.
Sandra fooled her way into it and got the money. simple. In my opinion Parvati deserved it but anytime you leave the decision to a jury you risk a bad decision.
saxman, don't be so naive. more people learned about Peleliu from that one season of survivor than in the previous 3 decades put together irregardless of your perceived and generally worthless slight. I could make an equall argument that what goes on in the LW arenas EVERY DAY is a disgrace to the memory of those who served and sacrificed. I mean it would be a rediculous assertion to make, wouldn't it. I wonder....
shuffler, who watches that survivor garbage? I will tell you who: the same people that waste precious life time playing silly garbage cartoon games on the intardnet and wasting precious life time reading and posting worthless drivel on intardnet forums. Get it? :x

Whether Russell played dirty or not, you have to admit he is by far one of the most strategic players to ever be in survivor. I mean he made it to final 3 two times in a row.

Oh, agreed completely. If getting into the finals was what winning was all about Russell would have it hands down. He reminds me of the words ruthless and scrupulous. The problem with Russell is he thinks one ought to be able to crap down peoples throats and then have their respect without question. Life in a free society does not work that way. My big disappointment with Russell is that he never adjusted his gameplay. Its like he is single track.

My wife and I watched the season Rupert was on. One season of watching scripted, "how devious can I be" episodes was enough for us. Makes it sound like lying is a skill everyone should learn.

Amanda made it to the first 2 finals she played in...you would hardly call her a great strategic player. Russell was lucky because they had filmed this season before his season was shown on TV which meant no-one had the prior knowledge of his gameplay like everyone else. Boston Rob (who was a far better player this season than Russell) was done over by Jerri because of his past deeds...maybe the first time Russell tried his shenanagans again...people might've been more keyed into it

Russell forgets that he may be the King, but in the end its a democracy - and you will never be voted in if you spend the entire time crapping all over your electorate!
