LIVE CHAT for the full three hours

[LadyChatts]

Happy finale day!  

And because Jesse blindsiding Cody was so epic we get to see it all over again.  I'm not complaining.

I hope it's a good finale. It hasn't been my favorite season.

[Lantern7]

“WTF is the live thread not moving? Why would it open at 11?!? How- . . . oh, shit, I’m on the episode thread.”

Gabler thinks he’s got a shot. Bless his heart.

[Straycat80]

Here we go…I think this is the first time I don’t care who wins, for some reason I haven’t been that invested in this season. 

[LadyChatts]

Gabler must really love saying "I'm hiding in plain sight."  Which, maybe.  But what has he really done?

[vb68]

I hope Gabler doesn't win. Just my opinion, but he actually hasn't done much.

[bankerchick]

'No-one is looking at me yet,' can be taken two ways.  They might not be looking at him as a winner.

[truthaboutluv]

Cassidy thinks she was the only one always on the right side of the vote? Really...okay then.

Jesse would be a good winner.  I wouldn't hate the others winning, but the other 4 would just be underwhelming.  Cassidy herself said she hasn't made any flashy moves but has been on the right side of the numbers each vote.  I feel like that sums up my feelings on the season.  Just meh.

That’s me most seasons.

It must be a special night. They broke out the opening theme! 🙄🙄🙄

Live Reunion? Or sloppy pizza after the vote??

“I’m in Metallica heavy metal mode”

That reminded me that Ellie tanked her own game by bonding with Gabler over that and gunning for Morriah. What could have been!

[LadyChatts]

Everyone gets a word scramble to solve, whoever solves it first can look for the advantage.

[Lamb18]

Cassidy will probably burn those big baggy pants when she gets home. They're cute, but when you wear them every day . .

It's crazy to think how bad of a read she had on her tribe.  

[truthaboutluv]

No shit no one wants to take you to the end Jesse. That's kind of the downside of playing an aggressively bold game.

[Lamb18]

One of the words is LONG and I think another is SINCE.

[Straycat80]

An advantage this late in the game? Ugh. 

[dizzyd]

Good for Karla, not sure why the others are taking so long, it’s a simple anagram 

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, this word scramble seems easier compared to other final advantages.

[PaperTree]

Go Owen!

[Lantern7]

“CORK”

Gabler, everyone!

Karla with the grab! Of course, it could knock her out of the game. again, I don’t think Probst likes “big girls” much.

Edited December 15, 2022 by Lantern7

[Lamb18]

Tough not being able to run.

[Straycat80]

What is this word? Loser. 

[LadyChatts]

I don't think you need to worry about the word now, Gabler.

I was hoping Owen would find it.  I'm not a big fan of Karla.

[Lamb18]

Gabler wrote A CORK AT MY SURFACE.

Too bad, Owen. Seeing it first doesn't count.

[vb68]

Damn! I wanted Owen to get it.

[Straycat80]

I hope the final challenge isn’t physical because Karla has a sprained ankle and stitches in her hand, as she’s stated numerous times. 

[Lamb18]

Hello Romeo!

It might actually be worth the gamble to keep Karla until final 4, hope she doesn't win immunity, and send her to fire.  I think she might struggle with her hand making fire, especially if the person she's up against is decent at their fire making abilities.

I blocked out everything from S42 except for Maryanne.

[LadyChatts]

Immunity challenge time!  

[Lantern7]

Probst trying to hype things up, already praying for hunks and headcases in S44.

[dizzyd]

I don’t see the advantage helping Karla in this IC, it’s pretty physical till the puzzle.

[LadyChatts]

Swimming, obstacle course, carrying puzzle pieces and then solving the puzzle?  Glad Survivor decided to try something new for a change.

[Pepper the Cat]

Mmm steak

[mojoween]

I love finding out how Survivor does not know what the word “slight” means.

[vb68]

Look another puzzle. How original.

[Lantern7]

Hoping Karla gets this . . .

Edited December 15, 2022 by Lantern7

[LadyChatts]

And Karla's advantage is she will already have 10 of her puzzle pieces at her station.  Which could be a big advantage if she gives herself enough time to work on the puzzle, because that always seems to be where people catch up and win it.

[Pepper the Cat]

Will there be an opportunity to share the rewards

[LadyChatts]

I wonder if Jesse will purposely throw the challenge so he can play the idol and have another resume move.  He's safe no matter what this vote.

[PaperTree]

Jeff's vapid hype is sooo tiresome.

[Lantern7]

I think it’s a good thing Noelle isn’t here. Just a bad mix of struggling and Probst jacking it about triumph of the human spirit.

[dizzyd]

It’s so disappointing seeing one of my favorite shows become so boring and repetitive. 

[LadyChatts]

Karla's starting on the puzzle.  Owen and Gabler have since caught up and is also now working on the puzzle.  I worry Owen might get too into his head over losing that advantage and wanting to win.

[Lantern7]

Can’t the puzzle be in the middle of a challenge?

[LadyChatts]

Does Gabler have a letter C impersonating a U in the first word (You) of his puzzle?

[Pepper the Cat]

I wonder if they edited out people shouting “shut the frack up Jeff”

[Straycat80]

Karla doing pretty well with that busted ankle.
