It was a shrewd political move. If it had been Rich then she would have gone up against Rudy in the final vote. Some of the judges may like Rudy but nobody hasn’t been screwed by Rich.

Not like I watch it, but my daughter was watching this week for homework. Yeah, that’s it! Homework!

Sue is a total nutjob! I couldn’t believe she was such a bad loser. If I were a gay man, (I’m not!) I would be pissed that Rich is representing my people.

So my housemate refuses to let me watch the last “interview” (there’s some sort of Star Wars retrospective on Sci-Fi, and even though he eats, lives, and breathes sci-fi, he absolutely has to watch it just to confirm everything he knows. Sigh.), so I have a question:

What the hell _was_ Greg’s number?  
I mean, it all came down to his vote, and it looked to me like he voted based on who picked a number closest to his (Rich, I guess). Is that true? If so, it’s absolutely hysterical IMO.

Not that I actually saw any episodes before tonight, mind you.

This was the first “Survivor” episode I’d seen, but her five minute diatribe, indescribable. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard such a vitriolic hate-filled screed in my entire life.

So to answer your question, Sue is an unbelievably big bitch. A perfect 10.

I guess since Battlestar Galactica only lasted one season, Richard Hatch deserved to win. :D:D

Kelli, this is exactly what I thought too. I LOVED it that Gervase got up there and said he was disgusted by it. I have never heard such a hate-filled speech. She said she doesn’t regret it, but I hope deep down she’s ashamed. I felt so sorry for Kelly when she was going on and on…it was hard for ME to watch, I can’t imagine being on the receiving end of it. Especially when I don’t think she deserved any of it.

The show just ended in this timezone (thankfully I avoided the spoilers) – twas the first episode I’d ever seen.

What a bunch of nuts. I had the urge to cheer for Kelly (knowing nothing about any contestant’s histories) just to spite Sue.

Will I watch Survivor 2, now that I know what Survivor is/was all about? Doubtful. 😉

Wow, Rudy voted for someone he once referred to as “a millionaire naked fag” and other pleasantries.

Some were really cynical about Kelly’s attitude. Being up front with your scoundrel mode really does work.

I skipped Sue’s q and a part. What did she do to earn the wrath of Colleen and Gervase?

Oh, she was a bitch! She basically told Kelly what she thought of her. To paraphrase, she said the island was overrun with snakes and rats. Rich was a snake; Kelly was a rat. This was the milder part of her diatribe.

I know it’s only a TV show, but I didn’t want to know who won. I wanted to see it. That’s why I didn’t get into this thread or any other “spoiler” thread.

So about 30 minutes before the show, I’m looking at the “wanted” section over at e-bay. Some guy wants yearbooks, another wants baseball cards, then: “SURVIVOR… RICH!”

NO chance to avoid it. There it was. No way to avoid it.

Sack.
