Bob winning FF is *bullshit* imho. I don't think the winner should be able to win that.

Bob winning FF is *bullshit* imho. I don't think the winner should be able to win that.

But aren't the votes cast before the winner is announced? I don't see how they'd be able to exclude him without major spoilage. (Unless they excluded ALL of the finalists.)

No, but they could discard those votes and let the prize go to the next runner up.

Punishingly Intricate

I've decided he said those bad things after Kathy Lee spit out his dish -- even though they were played beforehand

Maybe it was just edited badly but the way he was so dismissive really sat wrong with me.

I'm a reality tv grudge holder, though!

Yay for awesome Bob winning! I loved that he practiced firemaking in case there was a tie. And Jeff told Future Contestants that they should learn how to build a freaking fire before the game begins, which I've been saying for years.

We were saying that we predict Sugar is going to end up with an expensive gig posing for Playboy.

Wouldn't surprise me at all. I expect her modeling career to take off after this much TV exposure.

Anyone still care about Survivor? I was pretty shocked to see Sugar get no votes at all - I guess we really weren't given an accurate depiction of what she was like around camp.

When even Marcus at the reunion made a dig about her crying so much, I realized it must have been pretty bad. I was wondering if watching the show made any of them change their minds--seeing how much she did strategize and, as far as I remember, not really trash-talking people behind their back.

Did they show who did vote for Susie?

I also think that if they are going to do the fan favorite thing, the winner should be disqualified.

Corinne was horrible and I loved the way Jeff called her out, pointing out that being sick of Sugar's crying is one thing, but speaking to her about it in that way is another. I don't get the whole "love to be hated" thing she had going on. Also, what do we think is up with Randy? Maybe a bit of Asberger's?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Plus with the amount of time Sugar spent on Exile - they didn't see her as much as everyone else. So her crying was more "concentrated", if that makes any sense?

I was amazed at the accomplishments they listed for Randy. He definitely has social issues and thinks he is so above everyone else. I kinda did like him inviting fans since he didn't have any friends or family to bring with him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just from watching part of the reunion, and not the show, it seemed like Randy was totally playing a character for TV, as was Corinne. Not that they aren't each really like that, but they were each conscious of portraying a role on Survivor.
