The Best Season of Survivor
I’ve already confessed to be a Survivor fan so there’s no use pretending I wasn’t fascinated by Parvarti’s play of two idols on one night, both gifts to other players, or by Sandra’s silence about finding an idol herself, or JT’s ridiculous decision to give Russell an idol. I loved it all.
I’m glad Sandra won. She may have been brilliantly planning a strategy of being able to say that she was trying to get Russell voted off so that she could use his vileness as a way to attract jury votes. That may have been the most brilliant play ever. It was certainly Parvarti’s relationship with Russell that killed her chances. She is by far the other master player and one who earned my respect.
I wish someone would explain to Russell that not only is he not the greatest player to play the game, he isn’t even very good at it. He doesn’t understand the game he’s playing. Everyone wants to take him to the end because he doesn’t get jury votes. Anyone can go up to everyone and say I’ll ally with you and use that to their advantage. The reason most don’t is because turning on an ally spells failure in the end. Russell doesn’t know how the game is played and I despise his arrogance. The fact that he thought he was carrying Parvarti around is so laughable.
Any Survivor fans out there? What did you think?
