I have a good friend who recommended this series to me just yesterday. Durrell was a pretty amazing man in terms of taking care of animals.I was on the Isle of Jersey a few years ago and visited the place where he arranged to save endangered species--including those howler monkeys who were busy howling while I was there. I better check this one out. Is it on Netflix?

"I loved the way the final votes were read but trying to figure out how and when that was planned." "A tie could happen anytime, it would only take 1 person to vote for the 3rd person to make a tie." Last season, in one of the Q & A sessions that Dalton Ross does with Jeff Probst, the subject of a tie came up and Jeff said that if there were a tie at the final tribal, then the person not involved in the tie would cast the final, deciding, vote. If you think about it, this is what they do in "regular" tribal councils when there is a tie vote to oust someone. The folks who are tied do not get to vote again, and everyone else votes again with votes only being cast for one or the other of the folks who are tied. Ok, now for "how and when it was planned." When everyone is done voting at a tribal council, Jeff always says, "I'll go tally the votes." Then he comes back and dramatically pulls them from the urn and reads them. If Jeff just grabbed the urn and brought it back to his post and started randomly pulling them out and reading them, it would not be nearly as dramatic as it has been. That's because when he goes off to "tally the votes," he actually looks at each one, and then they are arranged in the urn in a manner that will provide the most drama as they are being read. In last night's case, when Jeff previewed the votes and saw that there was a tie, he knew he HAD to read them out loud to the group right then and there, because he knew that Laurel would have to cast the deciding vote. No, he couldn't have waited and had Laurel cast the vote at the beginning of the reunion show, because it would have been a tainted vote. Think about it -- when they are on location, they have no idea what is going on. They only know what they see and hear. They don't know what another player is saying to the camera in the "confessional" interviews; they don't know what other players and saying to each other behind someone's back, etc. By the time the live shows rolls around, they've been home for several months, and they've watched every episode on tv, just like we have. That final vote needed to be cast in a manner that represented what Laurel felt at the time, uninfluenced by outside factors.

I read about the 'domestic violence' this morning, and was pretty upset and very disappointed in him. It may have been one of those incidents where the media blows it all out of proportion, at least I hope that's what it is. His wife didn't press any charges, so that's a good sign, I think. About 'backstories', some background info is nice to know, and should be included, I think. But I wish they wouldn't blow it all out of proportion like they do. A few seasons of AGT ago, there was a young female singer who was from a town within 20 miles of where I grew up. Naturally, I started out with high hopes for her. But every appearance, they made such a big issue of how poor she was, could only get 'menial' type jobs, such as waiting tables, had been raised by foster parents, hadn't seen any of her family in years, etc. It got to be pretty sickening to listen to. So I looked her up on the AGT website, and the facts were presented quite differently. Yes, she waited tables, in a very classy high-end restaurant. She hadn't seen her family, by her own choice, she hadn't been 'abandoned' by them as had been implied, she owned her own home, drove a very nice car, etc. Seems like it would have put her in a much better light if they had just presented the facts and not turned it into some kind of sob story. Basic backstory facts are fine, good to know. But don't turn it all into sob stories and dwell on them on and on, ad infinitum, ad nauseum. Rusty

Here's what Alison had to say in her interview afterwards. https://ew.com/tv/2018/12/20/survivor-david-vs-goliath-alison-raybould-finale/ "Wow. What happened to you up on that perch in the water? You couldn’t get your balance. What was going on? Well, first of all, I’m deathly afraid of heights. And so standing on a 15-foot-high whatever it was was just terrifying to me. But secondly, the last time I had eaten anything truly substantial was the wrap, which I vomited up. So I had reason to believe I had severe electrolyte abnormalities, including low magnesium. Which leads to muscle twitching. Which leads to me not being able to stand on a balance beam or all the endurance games that we had this season or the stand on a tiny perch in the middle above the water."

To me the outcome was perfect. The results were just what I wanted to happen. Next week will be fun as it shows six months later.

I agree YaYa. I was surprised how emotional I felt while viewing Vaughn move out. Predictable yes, but still sad. Although I originally thought that Vaughn was primarily to blame for the lack of connection, as I got to know Monet I see she has many problems as well. Although Monet really wanted to be married and start a family I think she has difficulty connecting because of her independence. Which I think she realizes too.

I I thought Jamie might decide to divorce and it's interesting that she is going to try to work things out with Doug.

Cortney and Doug were transparent in their feelings about wanting to stay in their marriages. I wonder if the producers told Jason and Jamie to make it look like it was going to go the other way just for intrigue?

I was surprised to see a six month later show. And it looks like Vaughn and Monet are on the show which seems kind of interesting! How much more can be said about a marriage that did not work out?

Wouldn't it be something if after six months Vaughn and Monet are back together and the other two are not!

What really stood out to me regarding Vaughn and Monet is that at the end, when he was getting in his truck leaving, and she was walking up the steps and into her apartment building, she never looked back.

From what I saw of the 6 month reunion, they continue to argue.

I'm very happy for Doug and Jamie.

Jason -needs- Cortney.

I just watched a few yesterday so don't have the names down. The one that split was it the black couple?
I can not imagine them still being together just after the little bit I watched. I really don't know who could live with her she wants to fight about everything. I liked him he was trying to be laid back and she was just nagging him constantly. I sure understood when he decided he had a long army reserve duty weekend to get away. The man just got out of the military for goodness sakes he needs a break.

The others seemed ok except for the one couple that had not had sex and she said she did not like him at all at the wedding and was scared of him. They were chipping away at her ice core it seemed.

I really like the young man that takes care of his mother, he strikes me as though he may have been a virgin he is extremely shy to speak about sex at all. He never would say if they had done the deed or not. I did think they were a cute couple.

What else can be said about a marriage taht didn't work? Two things come to mind. They decided to give it another go. Or, show that you can learn something that makes you better as individuals, even if there are sad consequences. That is, not all is lost.

Interesting point ,rob. Monet and Vaughn already rehashed everything, over and over. What more can be said? So, what would be the purpose of having them on the 6 months later show.

I wonder what the ratios of ethnic groups that applied fior the show? Maybe there were slimmer pickings for blacks versus whites?

The outcome was as I had thought it would be. I never had good feelings about Vaughn and Monet's relationship. It was stressful to watch them. Hopefully this experience taught them what changes need to happen.

I am guessing the reunion/update show will not only focus on how the couple are doing now, but to also discuss the entire experience, so I can see why Vaughn and Monet would be a part of the show even though they may not have succeeded.

I enjoyed the show, it turned out like I wanted it to. Vaughn & Monet may still get back together in the next 6 months. They might just postpone that divorce.
I hope someone is pregnant in the next show. Looks like Jamie & Doug were heading to the bedroom after dinner. I hope they make it.
