    You're going to have to be more specific ... 99% of us lost what little interest we had in this show about 8 years ago.

    Russell, considered by many to be the greatest Survivor player in Survivor history was robbed....the jealous idiotic jury awarded the blond chick, who he chose to bring with him, the title of sole survivor....he was in charge from day one and decided who would go home every single tribal council..he dominated like no other...even found all 3 hidden immunity idols, two without a single clue to their locations...this guy was hard core and controlled absolutely everything...

  • I agree, total sham that Russell lost. I felt so bad for him seeing how emotional he was about it. Really just pathetic that those people were so petty that they couldn't give the money to someone who was clearly the best. On the bright side the new all stars season looks like it's going to be amazing.

    I have very little respect for the 'sit back and be taken under his wing' mentality that she admitted to. Russell was the best, by far.

    On the other hand, I think that was the best strategy for her, so I'm not real sure what I think.

    Did Mick recieve any of the votes? (did they show how everyone voted?)

    Russell then goes on to offer her 10G for the title. And she denies him even when he goes up to 100G. How hilarious is that. I was thinking she was showing some integrity by turning him down, but in a week she will be a nobody, and I'd rather have an extra 100G floating around rather than the title of 'lone survivor' or whatever it is.

  • I was shocked he didn't win. He played the best game of all-time.
  • Russell looked like he didnt know whether to cry, smile, vomit, or shit in his pants.....When he realized he had lost....

  • I am still in complete shock that Russell lost. What a joke. As far as I'm concerned he played the best reality show game that anyone has EVER played. He was brilliant every step of the way. Some of his moves looked strange at the time throughout the season but they all worked out for him because he had thought every contingency through.

    90% of the time the jury votes for who played the game the best even if they were a victim of the backstabbing. But as my wife said, it was kind of a strange cast of characters this year. At least he won the Americas award. That's got be some validation for him. And I'd be willing to bet that had he won the game he would have donated the million dollars to charity.

    I loved Russell, I really wanted to see him win..but it was all in the hands of the jury, you have to pick the right players to go up against..he got too cocky.

    Russel should have won hands down...I'm pretty sick of Survivor and will probably not watch it next season.
    If you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to worry about.

    Did you happen to watch the season? Russell decided when Natalie could take a crap in the woods..she did absolutely everything Russell told her to do, as did everyone else on that damn show...it really was just a case of major sour grapes..Jaison was bitter as hell after Russ burned his ass...these guys all voted via emotions..Natalie did nothing, nothing! Not only did Russell take himself into the finals but also decided exactly who the other two people were going to join him....this has never even been heard of prior..it was remarkable....please tell me that Natalie outwitted, outplayed, and outlasted Russell..lol..

    Right on, what a bunch of fucking sour grape losers..you could not have played the game any better than Russ did..complete dominance from start to finish..3 idols found, won pivotal competitions, major role in every single elimination..he hand picked the final 3..Natalie did nothing..her final speech was even pathetic until her hero saved her....both Mic and Natalie admitted a bunch of times that Russell deserves to win..joke is right!

    I watched the whole season and every other season

    Natalie let Russell be the bad guy....she had an agreement with him very early that they would go to the finals together

    I agree that Russell finding the idols, etc. was unheard of but the guy was an egomaniac. He should have kept his mouth shut instead of bragging all the time.

    And give me a break....Natalie won...she did outwit and outlast

    If Russell was really smart he would have taken Shambo and/or Jaison instead of Natalie.....she convinced him otherwise

    Russell got robbed. The jury vote was purely emotional, they didn't want to give it to Russell.

    As much as I hated him in the beginning , and thought that he was too overconfident near the end, he's by far one of the most entertaining players this show has ever seen. Loved him dropping the socks into the fire during the reunion. Thought that was great.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.
