"Say Goodbye to Gabon" — What started as a lopsided battle between the Fang and Kota tribes ends with a shocking turn of events between the remaining members of Nobag. Find out the fate of the final five leading into an outrageous decision at the most surprising Tribal Council yet, on SURVIVOR: GABON — EARTH'S LAST EDEN, Sunday, Dec. 14 (8:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

I bet it is Matty.. the whole I am alone thing, plus last time someone promised an immunity neckalace and did not give it up they did not win.
Plus with Susie and Sugar liking Matty they could easily vote out the challenge hog of Bob
Title: Re: Survivor Gabon 3 hour Finale: "Say Goodbye to Gabon"
Post by: Belle Book on December 12, 2008, 05:26:24 PM
I think Bob wins the first Immunity Challenge and they all turn on Kenny, sending him to the jury. Then either Bob loses the final Immunity Challenge or Bob wins it but decides to save someone else, leading to his being the final juror. Susie, Sugar and Matty are the Final Three. Susie doesn't get a single vote and it's between Sugar & Matty for the win. I think Matty will win, but it could be Sugar instead.

Bob might not be able to run as fast as Matty or Kenny but best believe if theres a puzzle or maze involved, Bob has proven to be the master. He's good at figuring things out you know?

From TVGuide: Tonight's TV Hot List :)
Survivor: Gabon --- Earth's Last Eden
8 pm/ET CBS
"Good vs. evil." That was the theme hyped for this season and, although it took awhile for it to develop, it did finally emerge. And now that the finale is here, there are more so-called good guys and gals left than evil ones, but who will ultimately claim the $1 million top prize? Whoever takes the cash will first have to endure more challenges, tribal councils and face a jury of their peers they had a hand in voting out. Good luck to all. They'll need it.

They're either digging for a key or digging a hole big enough to go under. Kenny would definitely have the advantage to begin with if they go under the fence.

So they dig their way under the first poles, have to (unlock??) another, and are they walking on the walls of the maze?? Since I don't think you can go thru, maybe they go over? :cmas5

ACME
Our picks for the Survivor: Gabon December 14 Finale Episode are:
Our vote has been very interesting this week... 2nd place thru 4th place are pretty clear cut, but 1st Place and 1st Out are a razor-thin tossup between the same two players. This is the results as of right now... with the close vote tally, this could change in the next hour or so.
Reward: No RC this time around... being lucky enough to make it this far is its own reward. Exile: No exile. The HII is dead, long live the HII. F5 IC: Bob the Challenge Whore does it again! He may or may not give it away to Kenny or Sugar. Edge to saving Kenny. F5 Boot: Matty (or maybe Bob... we're still awaiting the recount of the challenged ballots from St. Paul) F4 IC: Bob runs the table -- Old Farts Rule! F4 Boot: Kenny. With Bob having paid his immunity debt last time, nothing is protecting him this round. No F3 IC -- F3 faces the jury Sole Survivor: Bob (or maybe Matty... whichever survives the F5 TC

As with The Amazing Race, Survivor is definitely going to be delayed as the earliest any of the three CBS can finish is 7:15 p.m., but with CBS having the doubleheader, the entire audience will be sent to various games until their conclusion. The New England-Oakland game is dragging in the third quarter while CBS' other 2 games are early in the 4th. I think 60 Minutes will begin sometime around 7:30 p.m. with the finale starting at 8:30 p.m.

I'm thinking Sugar will get at least one vote, Susie notta. Also thinking that Matty will do something to pay Sugar back, per web clue, at final 4 for her giving him the HII last week ..something heroic.
Title: Re: Survivor Gabon 3 hour Finale: "Say Goodbye to Gabon"
Post by: s1 on December 14, 2008, 07:04:50 PM
I agree puddin even though Matty ended up not needing the HII to stay in the game. Most sites predict Susie as 2nd and Sugar 3rd . . . surprises me. I really don't expect Susie to get a vote. She did what she had to do to make it to the finale but other than winning 1 IC she really didn't have a lot of game play that was shown.

Bob says 38 days I was hoping you wouldn't write my name. On Day 39, I hope you do. I did everything I could to make your life better here. I did not outplay you. I did not outwit you. I did outlast you. Please vote for me for change.

Honestly Sugar deserved it aswell. She did alot, She had barely any alliances. She's the winner in my eyes. A pinup irl making it yill the end is awesome. The only reason Bob won was becausre he had is old alliance in the jury. Corinne, seriously needs to grow up.

TV Ratings: NFL Beats 'Survivor' Finale Sunday Giants-Cowboys tussle brings victory to NBC
December 15, 2008 Fast National ratings for Sunday, Dec. 14, 2008
A marquee matchup in the NFL lifted NBC to a ratings victory Sunday, beating the finale of "Survivor: Gabon" on CBS.
NBC scored a 10.1 rating/16 share for the night, narrowly beating CBS' 9.6/15 (both networks had live sports in primetime, so their numbers will probably change some). ABC finished a distant third at 4.6/7. FOX took fourth with a 2.9/5, while The CW managed only a 0.7/1.
NBC's lead among adults 18-49 was a little wider. It averaged a 6.2 rating in the key demographic, compared to 4.9 for second-place CBS. ABC, 2.3, came in third, followed by FOX, 2.1, and The CW, 0.4.
Late-afternoon NFL games and "60 Minutes" combined for a 13.7/22 at 7 p.m. "Football Night in America," 5.1/8, put NBC in second. ABC got a 4.7/8 from "America's Funniest Home Videos." A pair of "King of the Hill" reruns averaged 2.4/4 for FOX. The CW aired a "Jericho" repeat.
NBC's "Sunday Night Football," featuring the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants, scored a 10.8/17 at 8 p.m. The conclusion of "60 Minutes" and the "Survivor: Gabon" finale drew a 9.6/15 for CBS. The movie "The Santa Clause," 4.2/6, kept ABC in third, ahead of reruns of "The Simpsons," 3.4/5, and "King of the Hill," 2.8/4, on FOX. The CW went with a showing of the movie "Spaceballs."
The Cowboys-Giants game improved to 12.6/19 for NBC at 9 p.m. "Survivor: Gabon" dipped to 7.8/12 on CBS, while ABC's movie rose to 5.5/8 in its second hour. "Family Guy," 3.5/5, and "American Dad," 3.0/5, kept FOX ahead of "Spaceballs" on The CW.
At 10 p.m., "Sunday Night Football" scored a 12.0/19 to keep NBC in the lead. The "Survivor" finale and the reunion show averaged 7.6/12 for CBS, while a "Desperate Housewives" rerun on ABC earned a 3.8/6.

One review from Broadcasting & Cable:
Quote
'Survivor' Gets Booed...But for the Right Reasons December 15, 2008 David Bianculli
The 17th edition of "Survivor," the CBS series that jump-started TV’s reality craze in the summer of 2000, ended last night with a two-hour edition and, as usual, a live one-hour reunion show in which the winner was announced. The winner of "Survivor: Gabon" was Bob, the 58-year-old high-school physics teacher. He deserved to win – but, eight years later, in the ratings, does "Survivor"?
Yes.
Unlike so many competition reality series that wear thin after an edition or two (if not before), "Survivor "remains an enjoyable viewing experience. Enjoyable, and maybe even instructive and, at times, emotionally uplifting.
The series always has been as much social experiment as summer-camp competition, and over the course of filming each edition, good and bad behavior is flushed out and laid bare. And at the live reunion shows, the studio audience reacts as if watching a Punch and Judy puppet show: booing the villains, applauding the good guys, and delighting when evil gets its comeuppance.
On Sunday’s finale, the clear villain was Corinne, whose comment about Sugar’s recently deceased father was so repugnant, even host Jeff Probst recoiled in disgust – whle the audience booed her like a designated villain at a WWE match. She out-venomed season one's Susan, and most likely will try to extend her TV exposure as a result. Call it the Omarosa Approach.
The hero of the night was equally clear: It was Bob. Even though young Kenny was the self-professed “professional gamer,” Bob was the one who had the foresight to think several moves ahead, chess-like, and sneak off to practice making fire in case the final tribal council came down to a tie vote, with making fire as the golden ticket to the final three. Which it did – and Bob’s practiced expertise ultimately paid off, to the tune of $1 million.
If that’s not a lesson to his students that homework and preparation pays off, I don’t know what is.
That goes for Probst as well. His post-vote debriefing of all 18 contestants, on one hour of live TV, is a feat more than worthy of the Emmy he won recently. Whenever "Survivor" ends, there’s a talk show in Probst’s future – or ought to be.
But that probably won’t be any time soon, because this televised game isn’t likely to go anywhere soon. About to start its ninth year and 18th cycle, "Survivor" is a good bet to do to its competition what it takes as its game motto: Outwit, Outplay, Outlast.
Next stop, as announced last night: The Brazilian Highlands and "Survivor: Tocantins."
Get ready to watch. And cheer. And, on occasion, boo.

I'm glad Bob won! I really liked him. I wanted to either wring Kenny's little neck (without throttling him) or just shake him when he brought up Bob's backing out of the Immunity deal. :cmas11
As for Sugar, I think she would've done better if she'd answered the jury questions better. She might've gotten some of the votes Susie got instead. No way was she getting any votes from Randy & Corinne -- they hated her. I'm not certain she would've gotten any votes from Charlie either -- he thought she got a "princess" edit. The only one of the onion alliance she might have had a chance with is Marcus, but I doubt she'd have gotten his vote.
