I was about to post a similar thread, but eh, I'll highlight this thread anyway.

Random thoughts:
 * I hate it when Jeff makes these subliminal messages to have his talk show back by making this cut to the studio, wasting time that which could've used to address the remaining players unheard of during the reunion. No Jeff, your talk show is cancelled and it will stay that way. And no, Gloria the chicken was the first chicken to not be slaughtered after 39 days.
 * I feel indifferent towards the juror removal vote, 60% pissed though. It singlehandedly murdered the already great season. Neal has had a raw deal. Not only he got "boiled" out, he got voted out of the jury. Neal finally gets a vote though (lol?).
 * Tai could be a terrific person in life, but he's on my list of worst Survivor players ever. He's one dimensional, he misused his advantages, he wasted his allies to eventually gain nothing, he can't articulate his shit in front of the jury (don't use ESL as an excuse; Yau Man is perfectly eloquent). Mark has more social skills and personality than him (Mark vs the Crab <3 ).
 * CYDNEY IS GORGEOUS AT THE LIVE SHOW
 * I initially didn't get Michele winning because I felt Aubry I felt had a more well-rounded story. However, as little presence she had all-season, mattered. She always conveyed consistently reliable information to us. That subtle edit is always a pleasant surprise to me. However, the audience seemed to not appreciate such edits, forgetting how my boo Sandra won TWICE. They say Michele is undeserving which is infuriating. This is exactly the fan reaction to Natalie winning against Russell. Viewers keep on forgetting it's the players who make the outcome of the season. They vote for different reasons, and while their reasons for voting Michele wasn't so much profound, she got the objective down. She rolled with the punches, and for it, she got enough votes to win. She used that reward advantage to its fullest extent (I personally believe Neal would've voted Aubry anyway). Jeff is right, "Nobody saw that coming." In a good way? I don't know. Is Michele's win invalid? Still no. Personally, she's as facially emotionless as Amanda but she turned everything Amanda did wrong right. Livid Michele <3
 * Before you scream Michele doesn't deserve the title, this article is for you, it's made by a good friend Mario Lanza, the author of the Funny 115: http://www.funny115.com/psychologyofajury.htm
 * Closing statements are back since Cook Islands, which should have been kept with the opening statements. Personally, the finalists should have the first say, their POV, at Final Tribal to set the tone of what the jury has to say. Since Worlds Apart FTC has been this way, very jury-centric. <3
 * Someone from the cast said "water" while Debbie enumerated her jobs. For those who didn't know, before Survivor, Debbie was arrested for faking water test results post Hurricane Katrina. I find it very funny.
 * About next season: The most uninspired logo and theme I've ever seen. I'm completely turned off by Sunday's speech about spending seven years in school and not care of my parents paying my tuition. I study in an ivy league university, a state university. Not everyone graduates on time. Heck, I couldn't graduate because of a damn chemistry course and got diagnosed with clinical depression for it. From what I've watched, I want Sunday out first.
 * One last frustration I needed to vent out: I wish Survivor changes how it portrays women. Recent female winners had since been edited as boring. Women can get loud too (WTF?!).

Kaoh Rong, great season overall.
