S40.E14: It All Boils Down to This LIVE CHAT

[festivus]

Quote

Those living on the Edge of Extinction dig deep for one last shot to get back in the game. The former Winners battle it out to see who takes home the $2 million prize.

 

[mishap]

I'm really not sure where to ask this and if I really wanted to know, i could figure it out myself, but I"m hoping someone else  already knows the answer.  

How many total seasons has this cast played ?

If I'm right (and not counting this season): Natalie, Adam, Ben, Yul, Danni, Wendell, Sophie, Kim, Denise, Michele, Nick (One)

Amber, Tony, Sarah, Jeremy, Ethan (Two)

Tyson, Parvati (Three)

Sandra (Four)*

Rob (Five)*-technically Rob/Sandra didn't play S39, but they did appear all season, so I'm counting it.

 

[PaperTree]

I want to see Natalie get back in and win it all.

Call it "Reem's Revenge".

This season had such promise, and now here we are...

[Lantern7]

Open to Probst in boxers, rubbing himself.

”Fuck! This is tonight?!?”

[susannot]

I want a one-person player to win it, but not Ben.

[vb68]

Jeff in in his garage!

[Lady Calypso]

And we open up to...Jeff in his garage and pretty shitty sound...because he's in his echo-y garage.

Jeff, your team sucks for not telling you that the worst place to film is in your garage that echoes.

[Lantern7]

Jeez. Even when he’s just using the garage, Probst packs the hype high.

ETA: “I’ve heard from so many people” = “I would have been on the street . . . but, y’know.”

[LadyChatts]

And we start this show by Jeff explaining how they built a TC set in his garage.  Yeah, they'll be stretching this all right.

I'm sad knowing we don't know when we'll be seeing this show again 😞 

[Straycat80]

Forgot they do the winner show live. But it will be in Jeff’s garage. 

[vb68]

Jeff's voice cracked for a second when he called it a fantastic season!

[wallflower75]

Jeez, they couldn't include Jeff in the picture of everyone by having Rob and Amber share a screen?  

[CletusMusashi]

Nobody has said that this is the best season of all time.

Heh, I was just saying the same thing.

And he's doing the usual spiel about how great and awesome this season was.

 

[MerBearHou]

I actually think this is kinda cool!  

I’m sad this All-Star Season is coming to an end because I like so many of these past winners.  It’s been fun.

Jeff ignores the people who say it isn't.

[vb68]

No reunion!

Edited May 14, 2020 by vb68

[wallflower75]

Wait, did Jeff say there wasn't going to be a reunion bit??

[Lady Calypso]

Jeff: THERE'S SO MUCH HAPPENING, WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR A REUNION!

Me: Wait, what? What could possibly happen that would require three hours?

[Lantern7]

Looks like only one person emerges from EoE.

[mojoween]

I love this show.  I love Jeff Probst.

I'm sad because I know we will probably not see a lot of these winners again.  And the ones I don't want to see will likely be back.

Translation: I don't want to carry this on any longer than I have to, and it's too awkward actually having to talk to the cast versus talking to someone "randomly picked" 8 year old audience member or Cochran.  So we're just going to milk everything else.

[nutty1]

Being the grand prize is double, any idea if second and third place dollar amounts are also doubled?

[MerBearHou]

Wendell with his focus-toothpick and Wakanda necklace — love it.  I’m a huge Wendell fan. 

[Lamb18]

Wow, Jeff's garage! I should be watching in garage, next to the bike and kayak and my red car.

Same! I've been sad for weeks because Sandra is likely done.

[LadyChatts]

Wow, Natalie's got a big edge (no pun intended) going into this challenge.

Also, I'm sure Jeff doesn't want to deal with tech issues with trying to talk to 20 different people and hope it goes smoothly.

As we can see from his shitty sound, he's definitely not tech-savvy.

They had plenty of time to create a better set-up.

[Lantern7]

Maneuvering two balls. The fix surely isn’t in. 😜

Oh, Natalie. Kill this season with a smile.

[MerBearHou]

Holy cow, Natalies advantages — I mean, come on...

[wallflower75]

Oh, jeez...watch Natalie lose this even after having all those advantages.

[Lamb18]

Go Natalie!

Maybe they can have season 41 in Jeff's garage.

[LadyChatts]

Okay, maybe Natalie doesn't have an advantage.  Dang girl!  Get going!

[vb68]

Jeez poor Natalie!

[Lantern7]

You think Probst isn’t loving Natalie’s struggle?  She’s a woman AND from another show.

[Straycat80]

Welp, all those advantages Natalie bought aren’t doing her any good so far.

I'm still leaning towards if they want it bad enough, they'll find somewhere to film if they are able, even if it's Hawaii.  Or a sound stage.

[KelseyNikki614]

Jeff really going in with hyberbolic comments about Natalie. 

Would love to see Yul come back! Or Natalie or Sophie or Parv

[CletusMusashi]

Jeff does not like Natalie.

[LadyChatts]

I hope Wendell doesn't come back.  I don't want him or Tyson.  I think I'd be okay with anyone else.

I mean, they never said that Survivor HAS to mean surviving on an ISLAND.

 

[LadyChatts]

Why do I feel like Jeff is trying his best to jinx Natalie?  The last thing he probably wants is the first boot to return and have a shot at winning, after the backlash from S38.

[KelseyNikki614]

Wendell would be a disappointing edge returnee for me

[Lady Calypso]

LOL at the shot of Jeremy just CASUALLY STROLLING.

“Natalie! Letting her family down! Letting Phil Keoghan down!”

[Lamb18]

It's like Natalie's length of stay at Extinction has caught up with her.

[PaperTree]

Natalie!!!

[Lady Calypso]

I mean...Natalie, congrats, but those three advantages ALMOST didn't help you, there.
