Worst Survivor ever.. and the final vote also confirms how bad the season was. NO WAY Xander doesn't get one vote after the game he played.

Russel wasn't up against racial bias. There were actual alliances this season that only voted because of race or sex (females voting for females). It wasn't about how well anyone was playing or how Xander was going to convince anyone to vote for him. And I can't figure out how Naseer didn't vote for Xander after stating what an incredible game he played and how he (Xander) sacrificed for others. WTF?!?

I found it comical that the "preacher" Shantel made such a big deal about Race and making sure the black alliance stayed together... but all I could think of is how early on Jairus, the younger black guy on the show, gave her his idol to show that he trusted her and after he did that she orchestrated voting him out just so she could take his idol. So it was OK to burn someone she should have protected when it gave her an advantage and later criticized others for voting off members that were black!

I have never watched the show and thought to myself that I wanted anyone to win because of their race... I could care less. It's about the game they play and that's how it should be. This season was just awful to watch.

They had a lot of challenges where it was puzzle heavy... no physical demand for the most part.

His grandma died and left him a big room with pinball machines

OMG was she ever annoying... but I think she was brought along forward because no one thought she was a threat and could win it. But then again, I never thought Mike would make it either. And I'm not surprised that Romeo didn't even get one vote... all he did was sit around camp and sneak eating rice lol

Cody was a good, likable guy, so you just knew he was going to be backstabbed or outplayed and indeed he was.

****SPOILER****

Could you imagine being in the final 3, knowing this money would change you and your families lives, only to see the winner tell everyone they don't need it and they are giving it all away? Sure I am all about charity, but this seems extra messed up to me and must really sting the players there that really need it.

Also surprised Gabler won, I would not have guessed that before watching the episode, but he put up the best argument and deserved it when it was all said and done.

I also hope they change the format of the show and go down to 2 finalists in the following seasons, it just seems like the 3 is a waste of time and the 3rd person usually gets ZERO votes anyways. Make it more of a battle between 2 then watering it down between 3 finalists.

I enjoyed the season, but it could have been so much better. One thing I think they could improve on is picking contestants.. None of them are interesting anymore and it seems like they pick a lot of really young players now (late teens/early 20's). I just think there is more substance in gameplay when the contestants have life experiences.

Also, they don't pick out good looking contestants anymore (haha), just an observation. The whole show used to be packed with lookers, now... not so much.

Still kills me that he wins it all against people that that could have used the money to change their lives and he just gives it all away LMAO

This is what happened 100%. Funny how Cassidy made such a big deal of her being a female/woman and how that was a big thing, and it was another woman that ended up sinking her.

I hate when contestants pick something that single them out and they make such a big point of why someone should side with them, ie, I'm a woman, this race, sexual preference, or "XXX" and no one that is a woman or "XXX" has won yet or we should all stick together because of a thing that has nothing to do with the game. She was constantly mentioning that all the women there should vote for her just because she was a woman and NOT because of the substance of her gameplay.

At least they have gone away from all the WOKE crap! This season is pretty good IMO
