Episode 25.13

You know, I've always wondered something about the contestants. If they are fans of Survivor, they aren't always able to watch every episode. They used to film the spring seasons while the fall was still airing and thus, make it impossible for the people to see both seasons. Nowadays, since both the fall and spring are filmed a month apart, the contestants from both seasons would get to see both seasons. But there are always problems between the filming dates and airing dates of each varying season. These contestants never got to see what happened in One World. But I don't think that they would care and I'm not sure that most people would. They'd just be happy to be on the show to compete for a million dollars. From what I understand, seasons 27 and 28 are pretty much guaranteed to happen. They just need an official renewal. Although, they could be guaranteed like how they were casting for a second season of Pirate Master before that show was cancelled in its first season. And I do wonder who might be back for season 26. I hope that they have some contestants from Survivor: Guatemala or Micronesia who haven't played a second time. Or, they could get anyone from seasons 21-25 and that would be nice as well. I still want them to do a season where contestants from the tenth season lead the new contestants, whoever they are. And in regards to spoilers, if you care about them, I don't know for 100% fact where you can find one that is completely accurate. They've been worrying about them since Survivor began. I already know two of the contestants for next season, and I shouldn't be able to have that information. Although, it could easily be complete bull. I don't know for sure. There are plenty of great ideas for All Stars seasons that they could do but haven't. They could have the contestants known for being smart players versus the ones known for being dumb. They could do an all stars men versus women. They could do runners up versus winners. They could do a season with every contestant who was the last voted out in their season or the first for that matter. In fact, normally most returning contestants made it to the merge in their first season. Also, to those affected by the typhoon in the Philippines, I'm praying for you. You'd think that someone could set up a charity for those people or some way of helping them. The people who do Survivor are probably already working on some sort of help for them. At least this won't affect the next season, which has already been filmed. I wonder how often they have this sort of problem where a disaster occurs when they are done using a location. After the 20^th season finished filming, the Samoan earthquake happened. And there was political unrest in Fiji when they were doing a season there. Those could have been the only seasons where something like that happened. But I should stop rambling and get to the episode.

So they finally got rid of Abby. Of course, I saw the promo for the finale before I say this episode so I already knew that she would be voted out. I'm not surprised. She really wasn't that nice a person and she really didn't do much to help the game. Michael won the reward challenge and took Lisa and Malcolm on the reward with him. There was a helicopter part of the reward, which they didn't show. Michael probably doesn't like helicopters due to his experience with them in Australia. He is injury prone this season, but at least none of them are so serious that he has to be taken out of the game. Malcolm went on to win the immunity challenge. His idol was never used. So he gets a memento of his Survivor experience with an idol. It's a shame that he can't keep it and use it in his next season. Abby wanted to stay around longer in the game solely because she thought that others could beat her in the final tribal council. But that wouldn't happen. The final four deal was kept and these people got exactly what they wanted. Since there isn't a final two this season, one of them will be voted out in the penultimate tribal council and the other three will compete for the million dollars. I'd be happy with any of the three of them, although some I'd prefer to others. Stay tuned for the last blog post of mine about this season. I will include a list of the three dumbest moves this season as well as a look at the next season. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
