Blood v. Water: Finale

Good battle everyone!

Despite some last-second intrigue, Tyson maintained his iron grip on this game & came through as the clear winner of Survivor Season 27: Blood v. Water.

 

Final Scores:

MooMe: 189 pts

Vytas: 27.5 pts
Tyson: 102 pts
Monica: 58 pts
Brad: 1.5 pts
Rachel: 0 pts

AhhhhFUCKthat: 119.5 pts

John: 6 pts
Laura B: 16 pts
Candice: 4.5 pts
Gervase: 59 pts
Ciera: 34 pts
 
51st State: 107.5 pts
Aras: 38 pts
Rupert: 0 pts
Marissa: 3 pts
Caleb: 26 pts
Laura M: 40.5 pts

Mind Under Matter: 99 points
Katie: 22 pts
Hayden: 27 pts
Colton: -2 pts
Kat: 14 pts
Tina: 38 pts

Final Thoughts:

I think that each team has a player than nicely represents their own story arc this season:

- MooMe = Tyson. Sneaky & strategic, laying low at first but soon showing everyone who is really in charge & ultimately winning the whole shebang.

- AhhhhFUCKthat = Ciera. Terrible at first, but proving to be the most improved by the end of the season. Valiant battle!

- 51st State = Laura M. In the mix early, then had to deal with a huge setback, but never really out until the very end.

- Mind Under Matter = Katie. Pretty clueless the whole time, usually did better when she was neither paying attention nor invested in what was going on.


Season 28:

Survivor: Cagayan (aka needed another name for Philippines) will have 3 tribes based on Brawn, Brains, and Beauty. No returning castaways that I'm aware of. Premieres February 2014 and will start with 18 contestants. For more info: http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/12/15/survivor-cagayan-jeff-probst/.

I thought this was an above average season with an interesting twist.

The finale was a bit anticlimactic but I think that's to be expected when 3 people in the same alliance make it to the finish. Tyson deserved to win over Monica and Gervase and the jury obviously agreed wholeheartedly.

DoW goes to Kat for her insecure and mostly incoherent ramblings about moving closer to Hayden and becoming 'top heavy'. Get a life. Close 2nd for DoW goes to Tyson's hair.

Next season's theme could be interesting but I think they should have spearheaded each team with a returning player that typified that typecast instead of having it be all n00bs.

Yes, thanks for keeping up the blog, Michal. It was a good season and your commentary was tip top, as usual.

GG Moon and Melissa. Takes the Lead! Lost the Lead!

Enjoy the season lead until February. Then we will be taking it back.
