Survivor Palau Picks

May 16th, 2005

It aint over yet! Sunday night and someone is winning Survivor tonight!

OK, it’s 9:16 PM here in California and the final episode of Survivor is on TV. Since I am Tivo’ing it I haven’t begin watching it yet!

I will now FINALLY make my judgements and select the one I’d like to win.

The final 4 contestants are:

Katie - looking better since she’s shed a few points, and she has a nice personality. She got a bit emotional on Ian and that was hard to take, but she has grown on me.

Ian - I was indifferent about Ian up until last weeks episode when he started to act goofy. First he and Tom decide if they win a reward challenge that they’d bring one of the gals so they’d be seperated. Ina wins a car and a reward at a mansion and what does he do - he picks Tom to accompany him. That alone had me thinking twice about him, but when things heated up he started having trouble reponding and I thought he dug himself in so deep he’d be a goner last week… but he didn’t.

Tom - the most intelligent and capable of the survivor’s. Tom is very level headed which I appreciate. His calm handling of Ian’s change in plans was admirable. If Tom makes it to the final two he is without question going to be the sole survivor as voted by the jury.

Jenn - She is pretty and a good competitor. She is strong, but didn’t really play the game too much, at least not all that noticeably. She clung to Greg a bit much and was more of his shadow.

OK, all that laid out on the table it must seem obvious I am rooting for Tom as the winner of Survivor Palau. I am. He is strong and honest.

Here are my picks in order.

1. Tom - he deserves it

2. Katie - she deserves runner up, but blew it by keeping Ian in the game

3. Jenn - no one will feel she is qualified to be the soul survivor. I can’t see her winning, although she looks good. Also the jury will still hold her relationship with Greg against her.

4. Ian - he should not win. If he makes it to the final two, he will lose. If he wins the joke is on us.

So, let’s see how it pans out. Regardless of who wins I will say I enjoyed this season of Survivor almost as much as All-Stars and much better than the dud season of Vanuatu.

Survivor just keeps on kicking!
