I don't think Survivor Nicaragua was that bad. Survivor Fiji was bad but not this. Well maybe it is now that I am thinking more of it.
For starters, Dan made it until Day 37, which is amazing for someone who was kept in the game because he was just so lame. Yes, there were other weak people that even made it to the Final Three (remember Susie from Gabon?) but no one was as uninspired as Dan. I could only think of Chet from Micronesia who was worse than Dan. But come on, Micronesia was one of the best seasons and Chet, fortunately, did not make it to the jury. I bet the only thing that kept Dan on the island was his ego.
Another point that stings for this season was the fact that there were two quitters in the jury. Naonka and Purple Kelly should have at least made a sad face but they looked jubilant for people who were in the game. Kudos though because I never heard of them claiming to be great fans of the show.
Jane was still great and I love her rising above her anger with Chase.
I hate it when people in the jury are still so emotional when casting their votes. Sash never got any vote. Just like Russell never got any vote last season. Just like Sugar never had any vote in Gabon. All because they pissed off almost everyone in the jury and blame it on their strategy.
Early in the show, I have read some spoilers that Sash, Chase and Fabio are going to be the Final Three. I did not believe it then because it was just so unlikely. There were still a few power players left at that time so Chase and Fabio were really a long shot. But I guess anything can happen in Survivor, no matter how crappy the season is.
I'm glad Fabio won. Sash would have been a worthy winner too.
I was surprised that there were not a lot of Boos for Naonka and even for Shannon during the reunion. Also, usually, everyone who gets a vote on the last tribal council would usually get an almost equally loud round of applause from the audience. But it did not happen this time. Chase was probably too dumb to get a fan.
