"E13 listing from TV Guide"

Posted by AyatollahKhomeini on 08-14-00 at 08:45 PM
From the print edition of TV Guide, the listing of the final episode:

*******

...And then there was one

The reality series has reached week 13, in which the final four are whittled down to two and the $1 million dollar winner is chosen by a jury of the last seven voted off the island. And, says executive producer Mark Burnett, "I'm really surprised at the outcome."

But before the jury votes, there are two more immunity challenges and three tribal councils. The first immunity challenge is "Foreign Comrades," in which, Burnett explains, the final four must answer questions about the people they just spent 39 days with on the island. It's very revealing." The second challenge is an endurance contest called "Rites of Passage," which includes fire walking. When only two castaways remain, the final tribal council is convened and it's played out "like a court case," reports Burnett. "There are OPENING ARGUMENTS . Then they answer questions from the JURORS...and make CLOSING ARGUMENTS." Burnett admits to being shocked at what went down. "A lot of resentment came out," he recalls. Following the episode is a live reunion with ALL 16 contestants, who talk about their experiences.

First thought: IF the Kelly "swinging from a vine" IC picture is real (see ferretkiss' qualifier about it on another thread), it would have to be from "Rites of Passage," meaning that Kelly makes the final three.

humm to many imagine flying through my head right now to post thoughts. But this is necessary info to compose and Final end Game Theory.

Intial reactions...if rich and sean are still alive for the F4, I beleive they have the best chance of winning the "Foreign Comrades" triva. Rich cause he is smart and interacted with alot of people. Sean for interaction with PA and since he was a doctor, I assume he has a good memory obscure things.

Well will see.

MY Brain is still fried....

This worries me, for some reason I can't see Rudy doing well at firewalking.

72 or not I don't think Rudy will have any trouble at all at firewalking. This is where his SEAL training will shine through. He is probably great at telling his mind to think anything other then the pain. Rudy will do fine in this challenge.

that is too funny that they have opening/closing arguments and questions from the jury. (ooh! we'll get to see lots of jeff) This is going to be a riot!

Thanks for the info,I haven't
read the tv guide in ages.do
they still have that ridiculously easy crossword
puzzle???I'm glad the
little controversy whether
there were going to be
tribal councils for the final
4 and final 3 rounds have been
put to rest.Obviously,the
tribal councils are the dramatic anchor of the show,and it would have been
a huge disappointment,to
dispense with them for the
final 4 and final 3 rounds.
Obviously Rudy would have
been gone long ago if the
show had just relied on
an aptitude for camping
games to winnow the cast down
to the final two.I might
have turned the show off,if
all they did was see who
was better at hop-scotch or
shuffleboard,or whichever
cheesy game they could come up with
to determine who would be
sent off to the join the other
more youthful castaways at
Malaysia Club Med.
I must admit the trivia game
regarding the other castaways
sounds very intriguing.Perhaps
it could be marketed to the
general public???Where's my
Colleen ACtion Figure??
