Survivor Recap: May the Best Woman…..Win!


Time for Abitchia.  She’s as delusional as ever.  She tells Kim that the two of them played the game very similar.  She says Kim knows if Abitchia was in that final three with her that she’d be shitting bricks right. 

I’m the best player ever!

What an idiot.

It’s Douchezan’s turn.  He says that they may think he hates all their guts, but he doesn’t.  Just Kim.  So he’s gonna focus on her.  He says sure, she played a great game, but that doesn’t mean that Chelsea or Sabrina didn’t play a great game too.  He’s gonna ask her one question and if she answers it correctly, she has a great shot of winning.  If she doesn’t then that will show him that she’s not the Survivor she thinks she is.

Do you think I’m the best Survivor that has ever been and ever will be????

No.

You know that’s what he really wanted to ask, but instead he asks her to identify the move that ruined his chances of winning.  She tells him it was when he took Jonas out.  Jeff wants to know if Douchezan is going to tell her if she answered right or not.  Nope.  “The Survivor gods have spoke and it’s like, uno, dos, adios.”

He really is a douche, isn’t he?

YUP.

It’s Kat’s turn.  Woo hoo…..ya just know she’s going to be an incomprehensible ball of bitterness!!  FINALLY!

I had open heart surgery as a kid and have to have another operation in order to have kids.  I’ve realized that life is too short and I don’t have time to be angry with people and hold grudges.

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING????!!!!!????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

 She’s not done.  She turns to the jury and urges them not to vote based on anger.  “Take the time that you have and live it for the best you can.”

Worst.  Jury. Ever.

And with that, it’s time for the vote and then as usual, Jeff runs off with the voting urn so that they can all meet up in New York after everyone’s had a chance to shower and gain twenty pounds or so.

The ladies clean up nicely, although Kim is looking a little bit like Kelly Bensimon.  Only less leathery.

I like that we can actually recognize them; so many times they’re all puffy or have too much makeup on at the reunions.  These three actually look pretty good.    

So let’s get down to the votes….Jeff reminds them that this time around, they WANT to see their name.  First vote, Kim.  Followed by Sabrina, then Kim, then Sabrina, then all Kims

We have a winner!

Chelsea gives Kim a big hug before she runs off stage to hug her family.

And then…..its reunion time.

Jeff starts out by talking about how Kim dominated the game.  What does she think the key to her success was?  She thinks it was having a personal connection with people; you can dominate in challenges, but in the end you still have to get people to want to vote for you.  They talk for a few minutes about how the ladies got the guys to vote out other guys and that was what got the final five to an all-woman final.

I’m still in therapy over it!

Jeff then goes to Matt, asking him what the hell the men were thinking when they agreed to go to tribal even though they already had immunity! 

Um……I was voted out before that happened.

Awkward!

    Kim looks like she could be Zac Efron’s mom, they sort of have the same pinched face, blue eyes look going on.

    The photo of Abitchia on page two sort of summarizes her in a nut shell for this season – gross, nasty, always running her mouth, in need of a real bra, no common sense (why is she giving the camera a crotch shot??). Her exit interview was just awful, getting in those parting shots about Christina, what was the point except to show how lame Abitchia really is. And her fake apology at the reunion, I would have believed it if show was only awful while other people were around, but she was bad even during the diary sessions.

    After 39 days, how are these girls girls eyebrows still in such good shape?? How did Jay loose 30 pounds but Abitchia only loose 15?

    The photo/captions for the fallen comrades was AWESOME!!!

    I really don’t think there would have been any point to Christina trying to scramble and stay, she was going home no matter what. After 38 days of fighting, she was probably just tired of it.

    I really liked how Jonas started his question at final tribal, all serious and bitchy, but then reveled he was just kidding. I wonder if the producers knew he was going to do that and that is why he went first. It was a nice ice breaker. Also, I really don’t believe Kat at all about open heart surgery. Even if she had surgery as an infant, she would have had some sort of scar on her chest. Also, the fact that she didn’t mention that at any time during the whole show? Then sort of blew off the question at reunion, odd.

    I loved how even Colon’s mom was disappointed in him. And Blossom only liked Colon because she wanted to see Karma visit him in the game and kick his ass, but I still think that part was totally pointless.

    I thought they brought Blossom on as a PSA warning against the dangers of chin implants.

    It looks like Dr. Skidmark’s wife has a chin implant too. And I’m gonna ask what I did in the minicap, since that probably won’t be opened as much now that this full recap is up, but shouldn’t Kat have a obvious scar, a scar that I never noticed, from her (two so far, I believe she said) open heart surgeries?

    I was hoping Blossom was there to run up on the stage and cut Colon with her chin. But no, she wants to see him again! I’m not watching if they bring KKKolton back.

    I thought Kim did a great job and deserved her win. And I hope Abitchia got a much deserved wake up call and learns from this. What a C*.

    Kat has a scar on her chest, not an obvious one but it is there. I read somewhere that she has an artificial valve and those have to be replaced at intervals.

    “Why oh why is Abitchia’s ass now blurred out?????”

    ^Ass hair. She is related to Land of the Lost’s Chakka, after all.

    Seriously though, I have contemplated the blurring & I think CBS doesn’t like escaping buttcheeks.

    Granted, I’ve never been a contestant in the game of Survivor, but I have to wonder each season that one player dominates – why oh why don’t the others vote them off when they have a chance? It makes for a dull season when someone like Rob (in the what?, 4th season?,) wins or Kim.

    Worst. Jury. Ever.

    So true.

    In defense of Amy Farrah-Fowler, aka Blossom, you have to admit that Colon was playing on a whole other level than the other survivors and he made it very interesting. He had a legitimate chance of winning. When he left, it was sooooo boring.

    Don’t get me wrong, I don’t ever want to see the despicable guy on tv again, but when he was there it made a good show.

    Thanks PottyMouth,

    When Abitchia was helpfully opening all the other bags, my first thought was “Jeff is gonna tell on her”..then darnit, he did. He really thinks he controls the game at times. I have noticed this during Tribal Council when he asks pointed questions and his commentary is onesided many times. I loved the fact that you referenced his question about going to Tribal Council with immunity to someone that wasn’t even there :-) That was fun.

    Your page 2 pic of Abitchia wins the ugliest pic award.

    Along with prob most of the folks watching Survivor who used this as intermission, I didn’t see the fallen comrade’s segment, but I loved yours.

    OK. Tarzan loves his wife. He is a plastic Surgeon. His wife’s chin looks like something on Wizard of Oz.

    Question(s).

    Is he a bad plastic surgeon and he did this to someone he loves? Is he allowing his wife to walk around with that chin because he loves her and knows he is a terrible plastic surgeon, so he won’t work on her? Does he still need new shocks on his truck?

    I hope you don’t mind if I add that our TVGasm Fantasy Survivor Team came in #74 out of # 298.

    TC, Robin

    This season wins as the weirdest in one sense – it was the season of Unknown Alliances. As far as I know, they never showed Tarzan’s alliance w/the women until the 2nd from last episode. And Christine aligning with Abitchia? That still has me wigged out!

    I think Carol said above that Christine didn’t fight to be in the final 3 because she was tired of it all…well, then Christine’s even dumber than I thought if that was her reason. I mean, c’mon…you have a chance of going to the final 3 and that’s when you decide to give up?! She’s a silly woman.

    Also, I meant to say that just to quiet the nagging voice in my head, I would have tried my best if I were Christine. You don’t want to always wonder “what if?”….

    Carol, I agree w/you re: Kat and her surgery. I wondered the same. It was all very odd.

    I usually can’t stand to see people cry (it makes me well up), but I enjoyed seeing Abitchia cry. I’m glad she apologized, but I tend to think she was crying for the wrong reasons (fear of losing job, fear of having a shit personality?).

    Colon was disgusting at the reunion. Can’t stand that dildo.

    Tarzan looked like shit! The long hair looks bad on him, and he looked stoned out of his mind.

    Re: Michael/Mike – remember those sketches in the back of magazines that were ads for Drawing School? It would say “draw this!” and had an example sketch. Well, Mike looks like the lumberjack.

    Worst Jury EVER is correct. The final tribal was so dull. Everyone seemed to get up and have something to share about themselves instead of making it about the final 3. I can’t bear to listen to Tarzan.

    Oh, I have to agree with you, Chelsea is very sweet. I LOL’d when she referred to herself as a “hardass” during the final tribal and also when her dad visited. Also, the “Chelsea, why do you hate people?” question….odd. But I have to say that the editing was enormous this season – there is so much we didn’t see, apparently.

    The reunion was the worst too. Let’s hope next season isn’t as bad as this one.

    “Let’s hope next season isn’t as bad as this one.”

    Let’s Hope. Because as far as I am concerned, if they continue to eat better than I do on Weds night’s yet they can’t manage to spring for a few carpenters and somebody with an idea for a new challenge instead of recycling old one’s, it is going to get older than it already is and I will probably take many intermissions.

    “If Colon comes back on this next season, I won’t watch.”

    Oh! I forgot to mention the “3 Survivors return after leaving for medical reasons” in my post. I truly do not want him to be one of them.

    Should we expect lot’s of food and clumsy people on old rickety structures while a medivac stands by next season?

    This season was just too frustrating. Why didn’t Chelsea, Sabrina and Christina get together to boot Kim out? How come no one EVER tried to get her out? But yeah, I think they were all playing for second-place: they all get paid anyway, and suddenly receiving a million dollars can do serious damage to your life.

    Mike = Lumberjack: Hah!

    I would love for Colon to come back for a second season. If only because he has been saying he would’ve won if not for his sickness. Let him come back to play again; he is sure to be eliminated rather quickly. I prefer a bitter Colon to a smug Colon!

    (A smug Colon is full of shit..a bitter one is a harm to himself. I know which one I’d prefer.. haha!)

    On the one hand, I wanted Jeff to not tell Alicia she was taking the wrong bags. However, if he hadn’t, then she would have screwed over another contestant by taking their puzzle pieces. He had to tell her. It didn’t just affect her.

    If the surgeries had been mentioned earlier in the season instead of on the last episode, then I would have made an effort to look for a scar. I’m not the only one to have missed it, so it must not have been THAT obvious, like, “Holy Crap! What’s with that scar on Kat’s chest?” Also, I don’t follow her on Twitter, so her pictures there haven’t been seen by me. But, thanks for letting me know that there is a scar, because I thought she was making stuff up.

    Ha – that’s probably accurate (sadly). They need to do something STAT because at this point, I’m mainly watching Survivor for the scenery instead of the drama. And I do mean the real scenery – ocean, palm trees, beaches – not the peeps.

    yeah, i’m so over it when people just roll over and play dead. you’re on Survivor, assholes! Put up a fight! The season Rob won – on what? his 4th attempt at Survivor? – made me ill. There really is nothing entertaining about watching a dictator w/a bunch of lame-ass followers win the whole thing. Jeff Probst, Mr. Executive Producer, are you listening? Let’s email him

    I was just shocked by how small the audience at the finale was… the last time I watched a finale there was a HUGE crowd and video links to each of the contestants home towns where there were crowds of supporters there. I would be generous to estimate that there were more than 150 people here this time

    I mean, they’ve been hosting the finale/reunion in David Letterman’s studio for years now. I think the last time they had a larger crowed was Season 4, when they hosted it in Central Park in New York. As for the video links to hometowns, they stopped that a few seasons ago, but I bet that had more to do with budget cuts. I mean, why send a crew out to show a live video link of some people cheering in another town for three seconds?

    Kat is the closest I’ve ever seen to a real life embodiment of Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield from Sweet Valley High (from the drawn covers of course). If she has any acting talent, she should play them in the movie they are about to make.
