Took a break from the noise and watched BEN win Survivor 2017! Great break!
Sick of being skeered by ALL news. Had enuff.
Its all BS!
But tears brought to my eyes when a vet won. Good job!

(29,655 posts)They really did have to do all the challenges, and some seemed so hard. Loved that show, is it really over or just for the season??
Raine
(30,540 posts)I love the show too!

(30,736 posts)Chrissy should have won. She was the smartest and the best. She won FOUR immunity challenges. She made sure to know each and every contestant as an individual. She played every aspect of the game superbly.
Ben was a bully. He gloated. When he needed to use his status as a vet, he was blatant about it. Poor Ben. Poor misunderstood veteran. I do not buy the meme that everyone who serves is a hero.
It was the usual story. Women have to work twice as hard to earn half as much, be it recognition, respect or reimbursement. The other contestants resented her for her brains. Just ask Hillary how that works.
Survivor?

(2,910 posts)the end was for Ben to win. Rigged. Sad !
Raine
(30,540 posts)would been OK with Chrissy but Ryan didn't do much of anything so I was pleased with the outcome.

(4,511 posts)he 100% was being voted off before the final three but the show made it sure he was not.
I'll never allow the show on TV in my house again.
