Survivor 28 - Brains vs. Beauty vs. Brawns [US] SPOILERS

The right winner, even if the finale was Hamlet without the Prince - although Spencer's cameo was great. His tribute to Tony was deserved and established them both as great players in the spirit of the game.

Thundering_Sky · 22-05-2014 11:21pm

They really have to wait a long time to find out the winner. An entire year I'd be driven crazy if I was Tony or Woo.
Glad jeff apologised to Spencer seems a bit mean to say he wouldn't have a chance at winning.

Next season spoiler
Just from EW, Probst has said it'll be all new players

I'm actually happy about this - will make for a more interesting dynamic.

Machismo Fan · 23-05-2014 12:17am

I assume they'll go big with returning players for season 30 next year.

Woo just threw a million bucks away that vote,reminded me of Ian Rosenberger stepping aside out of blind loyalty to Tom Westman in Palau.

Tony was really worthy winner,think he would have beaten Spencer.

One of the very best seasons of Survivor ever,will last long in the memory.Loved Tricia tirade at Tony at final tribal.Thought Woo's performance at final tribal was beyond pathetic...

ElChe32 · 23-05-2014 12:27am

Woo came across as being not the sharpest tool in the shed most of the season, something that Tony used to his advantage and at tribal he didn't have to do much, Woo pretty much hung himself - honorable as it was. Nice guy, not a smart player.

Great season, great winner. Would have loved to see Spencer in final 3, dont think he would have beaten Tony though. Hope to see Spencer again on show, proved to be a great player and well his speech to Tony really helped him I think
Woo complete idiot, lad must have no brain.

What does GOAT mean by the way, obviously doesnt mean what it would usually imply

A goat is someone that you would take to the end because they would be easy to beat at the Final Tribal Council vote.

Where does the term come from? I feel like I'm suddenly hearing it everywhere

Great season but Jesus what a whipped dog Wu was, Tony basically demanded he hand over a million dollars and they confirmed at reunion if he'd brought Kass nobody would have voted for her.

A sacrificial goat?! Surely they would say lamb if that were the case

Kirby · 25-05-2014 1:15am

It can also mean Greatest Of All Time....to further muddy the waters.

GreNoLi · 25-05-2014 7:42am

Season 29 and 30 will contain all new players as far as I know.

Blood VS Water/Redemption Island is making a return next season, the concept makes me somewhat uneasy, add RI to the mix and I won't be holding my breath for as strong a season as the first BvsW, although Probst has hinted at several more water challenges.

Tony is a great winner, thought Spencer was winning it all season.

Nah, goats have been sacrificial animals all over Greek/Muslim/Christian histories, Satanic rituals etc. A lamb would be someone who never tried to play the game whereas a goat would be someone who played but you can still bring to the end because nobody will vote for them.

GreNoLi · 31-05-2014 11:48am

Every season is available to watch on YouTube except for the last 3.

Agent Coulson · 05-06-2014 7:19pm

The right man won Tony played the game prefectly in every way.

I did feel for Spencer who would have being a worthy winner in any other season.

These are two players I could see coming back in another season.

Anyone any idea when TG4 might be showing season 29?

Thargor · 21-07-2015 10:39pm

Ask them on Facebook and they'll probably tell you.

Mfor · 22-07-2015 1:13pm

Thanks I sent them a message. It is returning in September

Thargor · 22-07-2015 1:22pm

Fair play to TG4 for sticking with Survivor down the years, I remember watching Richard Hatch win on it back on season 1 when a new channel was still a novelty, thats what got me hooked, think I used to have to set the video recorder or watch the repeat on a Saturday because it was too late on a school night. Are they the only channel in Europe that broadcast it?

Then again its too easy to just download seasons these days so not sure what their ratings for it must be like...

Toto Wolfcastle · 22-07-2015 1:26pm

I remember flicking over to TG4 during the first tribal council of the first series and thinking it was the best thing ever. I was really surprised when I found out that the non-Irish version didn't have a narrator. At one point TG4 was only around 3 weeks behind America with it as far as I remember.

Mfor · 22-07-2015 1:43pm

It's a good programme alright, only really got into it in series 20 when "heroes v villains" was on. It's had some good characters on it. Looking forward to another season, it's been off a while

"Come on in guys" You gotta love Jeff

Jaysus, I forgot about the narrator because it's so long since I've watched it on TG4 (the cousins usually hook me up nowadays), but do they still have the narrator on it these days?

Love watching Survivor. TG4 deserve credit for showing all the series of the show.
Does any UK channels show Survivor?
