Survivor Gabon — It’s almost over

It definitely seems to be dividing opening this season, lots seem to love it while others seem to hate it.

I am still strictly in the hating it camp, although I did enjoy the last episode a lot — there were so many ways that tribal council could have gone and finally it went the way I wanted it to. I’ve been waiting for the tables to turn on Crystal for a long time :p

Sugar imho definitely and absolutely is not a good game player, this episode just highlighted it even more for me — she’s got balls, big big balls, she has not tried to fly under the radar and has been willing to make some pretty bold moves when she’s felt the urge to. But not one of them was the ‘right’ decision or based on strategy…they’ve all been personal or because someone got into her ear and told her to do it. She even said this episode she knew she couldn’t beat Bob but she didn’t care because she liked him :rolleyes:

Sugar is the puppet, not the master.

And what’s all this nonsense about the good guys, and listing herself as one of them? Firstly it’s survivor…there’s no such thing as good guys. Secondly she’s known full well how Ken and Crystal are and have been throughout the game and thirdly she’s taken part in just as many manipulations, blindsides and sneaky plans as they have — I hate it when they get all moral and hypocritical about it.

As for the finale…I didn’t realise it was that time already! I am going away for a few days tomorrow so won’t get to see it until the end of the week…hope I can avoid spoilers.

I think Susie is a cert for the final 3, who’s going to try and get rid of Susie? and if Susie, Sugar and Kenny are even remotely decent players they’ll be making darn sure they get rid of Bob and Matty beforehand!

 

The Biggest Loser – It’s Ed vs Heba

Who will America choose to go through to the finale?

As is the theme for the later part of this season for me…who cares?

Whichever one makes it through will win, let’s be honest, Vicky and Michelle don’t have enough weight left to lose in order to beat them. Which ever is chosen, both win.

If Vicky had fallen under the line it would have been great to have that satisfaction of voting her off. If Michelle had fallen under it would have been great to be able to save her.

One thing I do know is that if this were a UK show it’d be a forgone conclusion that Ed would be chosen to go through, we are a cynical and devious lot when it comes to reality tv and we’d vote for the opposite of what the contestants want — we’d want to send a message to Ed and Heba that gaining weight in the final weigh in order to ensure your wife gets to the finale is not cool.

I don’t think America will vote that way for those reasons though. They’ll vote for Heba because she wants to be there more and/or because they want an all female finale!

Which of the two do you want to see go through? Who do you want to see win overall?

 

X Factor Finale

So, the big day has finally arrived.

At the weekend we find out who has the X Factor out of the final three contestants. Eoghon, Alexandra and JLS.

The question is…can I bring myself to care? The answer…with Diana gone…not really.

I don’t even know how the wee Irish kid has made it so far, the fact that I still don’t even know or care to learn how to spell his name says a lot. It’s Leon Jackson all over again.

He should have gone last week instead of Diana!

Then there’s Alexandra who sings like a diva, undoubtedly the best vocal of the final three. But could she be any less interesting or unique? She’s just a great singer and not a lot else — for me she has the voice, but not that elusive X Factor.

This leaves me with JLS who I do quite like, I think they are talented and It’d be great to have a group win it. On the down side that’d mean Louis being the winning judge this year and that’s never a good thing.

So in conclusion, JLS for the win…but I don’t really care.
