"The Finale was set up so all of the Final 4 had an equal shot..."

Anyone else notice this? By making the two couples switch partners, this guaranteed that each of the 4 had at least a chance at the prize and the jury couldn't screw them.
For example, if the Final 4 would have been Scott & Holly/Keith & Tara, obviously the jury would have voted for Scott & Holly, but with them switching partners it guaranteed that at least one person from each group would win and then the other would have a shot if their partner split it with them.
So really, all 4 had a fair shot at winning and FOX avoided the Origi-Ho's from ganging up on one side.

This is one of the few things that I think the producers did right. In fact, if Scott and Holly would have been in the place of Dave and Charla, we would have had Scott/Tara and Keith/Holly. So the "thugs" couldn't have just given it to Scott and Holly. Also, the two checks - let the winners decide was a great move. Dave REALLY lost--so many didn't want him to win. Tara had a few friends and a few enemies, but she really did play a vital role in getting Keith to the end -- without her, Dave and Charla would have covered each other, but as you recall, Charla told Tara they needed another girl--so I think Keith did the right thing. First time in all my reality days when I am happy with the outcome.

I hope Fox gave the Fab Four copies of all the aired episodes. After listening to their self-righteous critics, they'll be appalled at some of the back-stabbing and shady deals that were going on that we saw on tv by the people criticizing them for doing the same. Classic case of Hey Kettle, YOU'RE BLACK!

You're absolutely right! What right do the ex's have to come on there and rip the Finalists for backstabbing, talking behind backs, etc when EVERY single one of them has done the same thing at one point or another?
Funny how they all seem to suffer from short term memory all of the sudden.
