As long as Parvati or Cirie don't win, I'll probably be OK with the result.
Strange, I thought we had enough boring winners already...but you want another? Amanda was bland as hell in both seasons, James is a strategic dunce who often states the obvious (or overstates the obvious so it becomes inane and ridiculous) in his southern drawl...it's Big Tom all over. And Ozzy. When he doesn't act like a smug bastard who you want to slap constantly (and not in the fireworks fashion of Rob Cesternino, Fairplay, Penner, etc...), he sits around in the background and wins challenges. Yawn.
Don't get me started on the rest of the cast. There because they know their Survivor trivia, not for their personality. If this is the best that the die hards can offer us, I say the producers go back to recruiting entire casts. At least it gave us Earl and Fairplay.
Also, sexism. Outside of Survivor Sucks, the general fans applaud the males 90% of the time and call for the females' blood.
"I can't stand Courtney/Stacy/PG/Eliza/Ami/Parvati/Cirie"
"I love James/Ozzy/Yau/Yul!"
Strange because actual drama was created with the former, very little from the latter. Or how about the non-diehards rooting for Terry's tribe in Exile Island? You're given a dream cast on the other one, yet I guess it didn't have enough muscle-y males to make people feel good about themselves...and it's never the guys that show off eccentric personas. Do you think this show would've remained the ratings juggernaut that it is without Fairplay's grandma lie? Without Richard Hatch's antics? Without nuts like Shane or Greg Buis? Puh-lease.
