It is all about marketing and they are trying to get people to watch the show. Colby, Rupert, Russell , Parv and Coach are all big
names and many people know who they are. When I tell people about the HvV and I mention Rupert and Colby are back for the new season they are excited to hear.
But then I'll say and my fav Sandra is back, and without exception, every single person that I spoke to had no recollection of who she was until I told
them she was the winner of 'Ruperts' season'.

James? Boston Rob? JT? Steph? Tom? Cirie?
All big names, probably bigger than Parvati. If they wanted to bring in viewers, they would focus on those players. Again, it doesn't mean Parvati wins. Just that she's in that core group of players who will play a big role in the upcoming season. |

JT - not as popular Steph - see Boston Rob Tom - to the average viewer: Tom who? Cirie - was shown...and again, zero sex appeal. |

Parvati isn't shown in the ads because she won, or because she's popular, or because she's hot, but because of all three. Other people only have 1
or 2 of those. That's why Parvati is shown, and the others are not. I doubt it has anything to do with who wins or even who goes far.

It is offiical. Parvati played much better when there is no racial twist involved.

The facts are Sandra is prob going to be the least remembered Survivor going into the season. So it would make 0 sense to use her to promote the show. For casual viewers its a toss up between Danielle and Sandra on who is remembered less. |

And considering FVF was a "all star" season thats pretty pathetic. Not to mention The FVF Finale is still the LOWEST RATED finale in Survivor History. So considering Parvati's win is the lowest rated win in the series history i would highly doubt she is very popular and also highly doubt that season was very popular. Survivor All Stars increased viewership about 1 million viewers from Pearl Islands. Survivor Fans vs. Favorites decreased about 2 million viewers from China. That tells you how popular that season was. LOL LOL LOL! |

Samoa was the lowest rated. Outback has the highest rating. |

roxbury123 wrote: While I don't think Parvati was a particularly popular winner amongst casual fans, Micronesia was definitely a popular season. The reason the season average probably picked up in Gabon Tocantins was because Micronesia was so well-recieved. Remember people didn't know Parvati won until she won, therefore the low rating had nothing to do with the winner. |

Sandra still wins
Here is why. This is valid Natalie won Samoa (Jenna won Amazon) Sandra won after Jenna and will win after Natalie Then season 21 a young woman will rise to the top again. It's destiny. |

SU I have a question. The majority alliance on the Villains tribe is Rob, Danielle, Courtney, Sandra, Parvati and Russell, all of whom got first or second/faced the jury. Was that what brought them together?

The majority alliance on the Villains tribe is Rob, Danielle, Courtney, Sandra, Parvati and Russell, all of whom got first or second/faced the jury.Good observation. They are also younger than Randy, Coach, and Jerri (Tyson has season ties to the older folks). They are also 4 girls plus 2 guys with a history (Rob) or gameplan (Russ) of alligning with women. |

I don't think that's even close to the alliances. I'd put Rob, Coach and Sandra together. Sandra is not going to get along with Russell for long and niether is Rob. I can see Danielle with Parvati and Russell.

The vote changes at TC from one of the Hero boys (Rupert I believe) to Danielle b/c she sort of snaps or says some things at TC. The reason why Danielle goes for whatever reasons just won't stick in my head, but it's somewhere along the lines of what i just said. |
