Me too.

Was a long shot, though. Monica was never going to flip.

It would be the most enormous twist in television history if Tyson did not win at this point.

Monica is a Survivor cock-tease. Always teasing she might change the equation or go in a wild direction, then doesn't.

I'm expecting a very bitter jury for some reason. I just have that feeling.

Anyway, Tyson is EASILY going to win this. Monica could pick up a stray vote or two for being so dominant in challenges but it won't be close at all. Gervase is in the typical position of the #2 in command who never gets credit for anything.

Monica's marriage sounds shit.

Well, this very entertaining, surprisingly emotionally deep season ends with kind of a predictable thud. Tyson blows out Monica and Gervase, who can only muster one vote between them. I was rooting for Ciera but this was a deserved win for Tyson, really. He had the game on lock from pretty much the beginning.

Ciera and Laura are a very hot mother/daughter combo.

Just needed to be said.

Jeff Probst's 10 year+ masturbating over Rupert needs to END. Rupert sucks!

Also, did Kat try to confess she got a boob job for Hayden? What on earth was she talking about? Never change, Kat.

Ya Kat's bizarre talk was definitely the standout of the live show. What the heck was she talking about??

So glad Tyson won. 100% deserved. I was so scared Monica would somehow win.

Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty is a mildly interesting way of grouping people I suppose. It's at least something they've never done. Wonder if it's an all new cast.

Oh ya, the Cochran segment was fantastic.

Next season is a cast of 18 newbies. No returnees next season.

I think Ciera is a lock to return for a future season. Probably Vytas too. Maybe Hayden.

Colton will surely play again.

No he won't. Probst absolutely detests him and he's one of the executive producers.

I don't understand why he was brought back in the first place. Also he quit twice out of two times. It would be a bitchslap to all Survivor fans who want to experience the game if he was to appear again.

Colton will never come back. They never bring back quitters.

Some late thoughts after catching up:

-Very glad for Tyson's victory, though I was rooting for Ciera until her elimination. Great and fun game player after being invisible for the start of the game. Probably played the perfect game if not for Tyson's dominance and Monica's general lack of scruples.

-Also happy for Hayden to have proved he can play Survivor as well as Big Brother. Hopefully he and Ciera will return down the road.

-Monica wins the Worst Player of the Season award, with or without Colton in the running. If she had voted off Tyson or Gervase in any one of the numerous times she had the chance (and screwed around with them, us and Probst by pretending she might), she probably would have handily won the season against Hayden and Ciera. But that would mean a Monica win and I'm more than thankful that never happened.

-I honestly thought the returning players would always have a disadvantage coming back, but every season in which there are returnees against newbies, a returnee (or 2... or 3...) make the final tribal, and three times in the last few seasons have won (Tyson, Boston Rob, Cochran).
