A reminder to folks that the finale airs tonight. 8-10 Eastern, followed by the reunion show. Definitely the weakest season since Vescepia won, but I still enjoyed it. Looking forward to how it plays out tonight. ---

Yes, I am looking forward to the reunion more than anything else to see Probst tear into NaOinka. I also hope the controversy that wasn’t shown Thursday night is discussed, but I really doubt that happens. I want to see an Sue Hawk Snakes and Rats final question (from Jane) at the final tribal council. (probably won’t get that either) And I also want to remind people that the finale and reunion will probably be delayed by football in the central and eastern time zones. ---

In my area, Survivor should start about 20 minutes late. The game I was watching was the Jets/Steelers. Set you DVR’s for an extra 20 minutes. ---

This has been a very weak season, but I still enjoy it. Looking forward to the parade of torches and see what they have to say about Jane of the Jungle… ---

Yep, 20 minutes late on the East Coast. ---

Wow, good for Fabio for making it to the end. His coins looked like they were going to fall. ---

I never would have pegged Alena as a panty dropper. ---

It seemed like an obvious choice. I can’t believe it was close. ---

Woo! I think this the first time that I rooted for the “friendly” player over the the strategic player. ---

For an extremely dull season, at least we got a pretty good winner. ---

YAY! I’ve been rooting for Fabio for the last few weeks. The vote was a whole lot closer than I thought it would be, but I’m happy with it. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > What? Her choice, and the things she said during her time to question them, kind of indicate she was actually making a decision on them using sexual criteria. She came across to me as the kind of woman who gets her boyfriend into fistfights every Saturday night just to prove to herself that he still loves her. And she appeared to be VERY into Chase tonight. ---

Between King Fabio in the final four, and his answers in the reunion, this might be the most hilarious final episode ever. ---

Fabio sounds nonsensical. He’s going to blow his million. ---

Did he just say he would use his money to undermine the government? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/survivor-nicaragua-finale-december-19-2010-spoilers-as-it-airs/564733.md?page=2)
