rewatching Marquesas

[Brian Southworth]

Ya know. After re-watching season 4 I remember why I loved Kathy so much. And I begin to really see the game that V played. She played a good game. I begin to wonder if people don't watch these seasons over and over and see how people play. V did a good job of it and deserved to win. I can now see how she positioned herself to win. She played the jury very well. She offered up people when it suited her. Like voting out Boston Rob. She did that to win votes at the end. Then having the right people to actually pull rocks! No one has done that since. Yes it was a risky play, but her faith saw her through or her perception of reality won out over everybody else. Then she made a quick deal with Nehleah which positioned her in a final two with her at the advantage.
I think people are too hard on her game play, she actually played 'em all real good. But gosh I was so rooting for Kathy to win. She is such a cool lady.

I know what you mean. Kathy has always been one of my favorite survivor women.

I didn't have a problem with Vecepia winning...I think her game was better than Dani, Amber, and Parvati.

i LOVE watching the old seasons. Its kinda fun to watch how much the productions value has gone up from the first few seasons.

And how much probsty has improved haha. If you rewatch all the seasons leading up to allstars you might start to believe thats it fake now, just because the production value has drastically improved.

watching a challenge without one word from probst is weird heh...

oh btw, i think they got rid of the purple rock after season 4. noone was aware of the removal though so it still scared people in the following seasons. cant remember where, but i read that somewhere...poor poor pascal...

I didn't know that. I knew that was one of the arguments that Boston Rob used to get Jenna Lewis to flip on Rupert in All-stars. Did he know they had removed that rule and faked Jenna out? Hmmmmm?!?!
And yeah the production level has gone way up there. I kindda miss the old production style though. It gave the show a grittier edge to it. Don't get me wrong, it does look good in HD ( well except for the close ups of dirty faces and clogged pores ). Though Sugar came off looking good all season. How did she do it?
I'm watching Thailand now. I can't wait till Rob chokes Clay. I love that scene. " I just wanted to spit in his face man!" Good stuff. And you can't help but feel for the Shi-dog. Poor girl played her cards too soon because of the TWIST. And Brian is undeniably one of the better masterminds this game has ever seen. He played a very ruthless game and won it.

Dani did just slip in there, she won cause ppl were pissed at Steph though Raffe did make a mistake by releasing her from her promise. Had he not done that he'd a won.

Pavarti played a better second game. I did finally break down and watch that whole painful season. Fans vs. Favs is my least liked season followed by all-stars. I hated watching Boston Rob play the Godfather.

Amber played her man, Jenna L. and Rupert (who are both the least strategic players in my book more so Rupert). That's how she won. I didn't like Amber's game either season.
Rob won her that money in the end and I thought the Jury awarding the money to her was a brilliant revenge move. Them getting married is their way of getting around the no sharing money rule I think. That and the sex I'm sure.

i read somewhere that jeff said thailand was his least favorite season.

saying that...i recently jsut finished the season and thought it was great! goes to show you cant have a bad season...heh

Even though the two all-stars are my least favorite, they are still better than just about most tv out there.

I forgot how painful it is to watch the whole Ghandia / Ted thing. Its one of those really awkward moments in the show. Like watching Dreamz at his final tribal. Or Lisi's little einy meny miney moe thing she did at it. How about JFP farewell speech in Fans vs. Favs. I didn't buy it at all. Corrine's speech to Sugar. Those are all some real great moments. LOL

you can pretty much put the whole Fiji TC on that list lol...so many akward forced tension it made for a real weird one.
