Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

So much for F4 lol. Didn't think they'd be able to fit all this into 1 episode,but they did. They cut out most of the camp stuff(but showed just enough to build huge suspense for the tribals), and cut out the opening/closing comments from the F3.

Guess we found out the answer to what happens in that type of scenario. Keith...almost ruined his own game TWICE. He almost got voted out due to technicality(being the only eligible person to draw rocks),and then when given the "talk it out" part,he almost gave up his spot lol.

Real happy to see Jeremy win. Really wanted to see him win on his 1st season. 10-0! Most lopsided win in Survivor history. Previous biggest was Earl winning 9-0 in his season. One of just 4 people to ever win by unanimous vote. All 4 of those seasons though, I was real happy with the person who won those seasons.

Definitely would want this on my top 10 seasons of Survivor ever. I need to come up with my own list one day lol. In terms of all the "returning players" seasons(in which it was only returning players),I'd say this is probably the best gameplay season. All Stars and Heroes vs Villains I liked cause they had some of my all time faves in it, but those seasons,people played so much more ruthless/heartless. This one,so much more strategic and competitive in a good way.

Really hope Survivor never ends. Don't care how many seasons they do,I'll never get consistently tired of watching. There might be dud seasons(Nicaragua,Redemption Island,One World...),but still so many good ones(Blood vs Water,Brain-Brawn-Beauty,Second Chance). As usual,I'll watch 1 past season inbetween the break period of current Survivor. Palau is the one I chose this time around.10 years later.

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I don't know if Spencer could've won if not for his strong arm attack in the F4 tribal, but he pretty much sealed his fate with the rant.

For the last few weeks I've been rooting for Jeremy or Spencer to win, so when F3 came down to them and Tasha I didn't really care who took it, but damn Spencer destroyed everything he'd built with that argument about making sure Kelley wins if he wasn't chosen to stay. I kinda wonder if that's really why Jeremy gave him a wink after the vote

[Majingir]

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I think it was more of a "See, I got you", type of wink.

I really thought it'd be a close vote. Like 6-4 or something like that. This is first season where someone won unanimously,where I was actually surprised it was unanimous, or that they'd even win(Earl,Cochran and JT, I expected they'd all win so easily).

When deciding between Wentworth and Spencer,I thought Spencer would probably beat Jeremy,but Wentworth probably could too(so if Jeremy knew that,he'd take Spencer so that he'd lose to his alliance member). Then during final tribal and hearing questions,it made me think Jeremy had a shot,especially after his final answer. Then the second Jeff read Jeremys name twice on final vote,I knew he won.

I don't think Spencer cost himself the game with that comment. Others have done same thing on numerous seasons,not as aggressively/in public,but it's still been done many times. At most,it cost him sole possession of 2nd,but he still gets runner up prize anyways,so it didn't hurt.

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I also think Jeremy was brilliant to save the news about his son, once it got to final tribal and he pulled out the emotions, it was over lol

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

Next season, Brain-Brawn-Beauty 2. Don't like how they have 2 of same types of seasons,so close to each other. Similar with Blood vs Water. Concepts themselves aren't so bad, but it's just that something like Fans vs Faves waited around 5 years(10 seasons) inbetween. Brain-Brawn-Beauty is like a 2 year gap between them.

Caleb from BB16 is on it. And Scott(former NBA player) on it too. It was filmed BEFORE this current season of Survivor, so whoever won,would've had to wait over a year to find out they won. Talk about a stressful 13 months,not knowing if you won $1 million.

Scott wasn't a relevant player in NBA, but he was drafted 10 spots below Tracy McGrady in that 1997 draft,which also had Billups and Duncan.

I also think Jeremy was brilliant to save the news about his son, once it got to final tribal and he pulled out the emotions, it was over lol

I thought the whole "Jury wants to vote for the best person to represent their season" thing might have been brought up during this tribal, and the "who needs the money most" stuff wouldn't matter. Not saying Jeremy won cause of the family stuff, but in a season like this, I expected someone to be like "It's not about who needs the money,it's about voting for the person who represents our season the best".

If there was a single bit of doubt on anyones mind about voting Spencer, that final comment by Jeremy secured their votes for sure. He'd win either way, but probably that was the thing which made it unanimous.

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I'm all excited to see Scot Pollard lol, I always thought of him as a white dude Dennis Rodman, without the skills.

Next season looks pretty dramatic, the smart girl bragging about her smarts was hot until she bragged about her smarts

The only piece of info I had heard about the season was Caleb being on it, and the med evacs. Both already confirmed by them in the preview for next season(probably intentionally for that reason), so with the obvious already advertised, I hope it'll be good season. Though gonna be tough to top an all time top 10 season filled with returning players(something Nicaragua failed so badly to do,which is what put it in the bottom 10,borderline bottom 5, all time)

I was surprised to see Caleb, I wonder if he'll adjust his game strategy or if he'll get all love struck again, he seems easily manipulated

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

The obsession thing I think it was BB exaggerating it alot(which they often do), but it'd kind of be ironic to see him as one of the med-evacs given he was in the army. Someone going through army training, not able to handle Survivor conditions.

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I'm glad Spencer showed his true colors and shot himself in the foot. Although I would have loved it more if Kelley had gone to final 3.

[Majingir]

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

Kelley might have won. I think she did play one of if not the best of everyone. Kelley and Jeremy played better than i hoped back in their first season when i thought both were gonna be real good. They were my early Blood vs Water picks to be good. Nice to see both exceed my hopes for them,even if it took 2 seasons

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

Man what a great season. I was on the edge of my seats for the final 3 tribals.

Only letdown was that Kelley lost the challenge on a brain fart.

seriously man when she reached to the wrong side for the ball, I felt for her, it's gotta be crushing mentally to get that far and **** up because of a brief mental lapse

sidenote: she looked really good at the reunion

Yeah that's one of those moments you stay up many nights thinking over and over.

Although if she wears that dress she can probably marry someone with $$.

Re: Survivor: Cambodia(Second Chance)

I thought Spencer should have won. Whoever was kept going to the final 3 I thought would win. Spencer won immunities and did make moves. I thought him and Kelley had the best game.
