shhh, don't tell anyone that it was Natalie's idea

I know from past seasons that you can give it to someone before tribal or after the vote but I never realized you couldn't slip it off to someone if you didn't play it and got voted out. I just assumed nobody would want to do that except in this case where it is a loved one you are playing with.

[kingfc22]

I'm thinking Natalie wins tonight. Keith could have an outside shot as nobody really "dislikes" him compared to the other contestants left. Plus he's been surprisingly very strong in challenges.

[B & B]

im like 90% sure Nat wins. Ugh.


Keith simply cannot win. The dancing boyz wont go for him nor would Jeremy. His only sure vote would be his son who he got booted off himself.

[EagleFan]

I am so sick and tired of people using "this is what I have lived through in my life" stories for why they should win this game.

[EagleFan]

Is Alec stoned during this final tribal?

[Lathum]

Stupid for them to take Nat.

If you go by the show of hands, it wouldn't have mattered which one they took.

[larrymcg421]

That move at Final 5 was awesome!

Jeff always does that, but I never trust it because we don't know how tribal council would've gone with a different configuration.

[Suicane75]

In my heart of hearts, I believe the winner was Keith or Nat, who it was wouldn't have mattered.

[Lathum]

Final tribal has almost gotten unwatchable. No one askes questions anymore, they all use it as one final soapbox, or to announce who they are voting for.

It has become utterly pointless.

[heybrad]

So the next season is Survivor Class Warfare?

[Kodos]

The no collars will get slaughtered.

Every tribal he hung his mouth open looking like a dumb ass.

Reed's soliloquy was pretty good.

[Maple Leafs]

I have to say, Nat's whole "These two made a big mistake by not voting for me last time, they should have gotten rid of me instead of Keith" jury line was kind of brilliant. In one sentence you manage to pump your own tires, accuse both opponents of being too dumb to make smart moves, and butter up one bitter jury member. That should become a standard play.

[Draft Dodger]

Natalie's play over the last few moves were brilliant, and really about the only saving grace of a rather poor season. I didn't see the idol play coming at all.

and all four of us laughed hysterically every time Alec was on camera.

[Autumn]

Alec is the definition of a mouth breather. Now i understand that term.

Wes playing with his tongue while staring dumbly listening to the answers to his tribal questions was disturbing. Keith was about 1000x more likable than that turd.

So dumb to bring Natalie to the end. All you've done is added to her ammunition as now she can say "I wouldn't have brought me, I'm a better player." Once you get to the final four, stop being nice and play for the bucks, jeez.

That was the worst round of "questions" I've ever heard. So lame. Reed was at least entertaining, but it also felt out of nowhere. That's really what had been bothering him all this time?

Natalie played a great game. I commented often early on that she was doing a good job staying out of the limelight. She did that, but then switched into high gear when it counted, which a lot of people don't do. She definitely deserved the win.

I always love seeing people at the reunion and seeing how their look changed. I was shocked by Jaclyn, who I didn't even recognize with all the makeup. And she didn't look better, she just became very generic. Wes on the other hand, that bowl cut was not looking good.

Agree with a lot of this but I wouldn't say Reed's tribal council speech was out of nowhere. I would say I was surprised he did it. But at the same time he was shown clashing with Missy & Baylor in the game when he called Baylor a brat and then got into it with Missy. The Ponderosa video after Baylor's boot also gives the strong sense that folks were not excited to see Baylor. Spending 30+ days on an island with people and then not even getting so much as a "Hello" when you show up must speak in some part to how Missy & Baylor were interacting with people.

[Autumn]

Yeah, I remember he had that clash with Missy, but it hadn't seemed like a running theme in what we saw on the show, so it seemed odd it was still bugging him enough to make a whole speech. I mean there were plenty of annoying people, surprised he was fixated on just one!

and Wes was the one they picked for the show. He was going to bring his brother but they already had a sibling thing so they asked him to bring his dad instead (and as you probably guessed, Keith wasn't super familiar with the show)
