Survivor Fiji Finale Tonight - 8pm

Quote:
The $1 million winner is chosen tonight by the jury as the five remaining castaways (Boo, Cassandra, Dreamz, Earl, Yau-Man) battle to make it to the final three. Will Yau-Man's gutsy move in giving Dreamz a new truck in the last episode pay off for him tonight? Dreamz has promised to give Yau-Man immunity if he wins it when only four are left. Will Cassandra's vote against Yau-Man make her an early target? Will Boo continue to win immunity challenges? There are a lot of questions to be answered during the two-hour finale and in the one-hour reunion special in New York City that immediately follows. — Tim Holland
Go Yau-Man! Sure hope he can pull off the million!!

I'm ready too!
Dh is cooking steaks and crab legs on the grill, I'm just loafing until the show starts.
I am hoping Yau man wins, but I like Earl too.

Wonder what I did before Survivor? lol

I only watched the first season or two of Big Brother - it is to raunchy for my tastes. The only two reality shows I watch regularly are Survivor and The Amazing Race. Actaully come to think of it those are pretty much the only telly I watch except for a couple of BBC shows on PBS.

I can't believe they voted Yau off. Cassandra I would have understood. But Yau---why? I guess he was too much of a threat.

Dreamz suxz. Yau is the true winner, in my estimation.

Yelp Cassandra would have been gone in a heartbeat.

I've seen it all so I won't say too much but Yau is still very much the Man.

They shoulda voted Cassandra out a LONG time ago, she never had a chance of winning. And Dreamz should have placed more importance on his integrity and realized after he re-nigged, he wasn't gonna win $1 million dollars anyways.

I really wanted yau to win, but Earl was an OK 2nd.

I hope Dreamz learned something. A man's word is worth way more than $1,000,000. Yau Man was awesome--a gentleman of integrity and good will to the end.

Survivor is about the only show I watch of that type--I really enjoy it.

I'd like to pop Dreamz a good one! I felt so bad for Yauman. I'd have loved to have seen him win but was happy Earl got it in his stead.

Unfortunatly, I think he is too arrogant to have learned that valuable lesson.

I so agree! But I knew Yau would take it with total dignity.

By the way did they tell Alex he wasn't in a courtroom????
That was one of the strangest tribal councils I have ever seen.

Dreamz really is contemptible. First he agonizes over the decision and reneges, then when Earl and Cassandra don't jump down his throat while he's trying to justify his action back at camp by explaining a mile a minute, he decides it was "OK" to do it, and from then on "oh, he planned it all from way back." Total baloney. It would have been ok to do IF he had given the truck back--then it would have been playing the game, but he doesn't even recognize that when you make a deal like that and back out YOU OWE THE TRUCK BACK. He was given a free pass by everyone because of his upbringing and he shouldn't have had it. His rational? Everyone else does it. What a poor excuse.

Yau Man, wow. THAT'S how the game should be played. But I'm glad Earl won, too. He's a nice guy.

And now his word is worth what's in his wallet - nothing. He should have given back the truck. I wonder if he's gotten a driver's license yet.

DH and I kept shaking our heads over the bizarre questions that were asked and so many of them seemed so angry at the final three. Since only Earl got votes, I wonder who gets the final $100,000? Do the other two get to split it?

I thought Boo did a good job at the final tribal council. He really explained to Dreamz why what he did was wrong. You know, I don't care what kind of game I was playing and how much money was at stake I would never "promise to God," to do something and then go back on my word. All he proved was that his word is absolutely useless and he wasn't even sorry for doing it at any point. Speaks very badly for his character. I think this will follow him for many years as people reflect on his lack of class and dignity.

I had thought all along that Earl would probably win and he was the first person to ever receive all of the votes. Cassandra never had a fleeting chance.

I thought Earl should have voted for Cassandra and made it a tie. Then Yau and Cassandra could have done a tie-breaker, would have been more fair that way.
