Ben & Jordyn (Blue Team) - Endurance 6




In what was, more than likely the final season of Endurance, the show came full circle with the blue team winning. The blue team won the original season, and they won the final season. However, this blue team I liked a bit more. Ben and Jordyn were incredibly UTR for most of the season, they were nice kids but very quiet. They were always the outcasts and were always supposed to be the next ones gone. But they survived at the temple of fate a number of times and made the final 2, and that's when they started to become colorful. The final challenge, which was a treasure hunt of sorts, featured everything you would love from a dysfunctional TAR team from them. Jordyn being usless and Ben constantly demanding for her to pick up the pace and her screaming back that she couldn't. They were a mini Flo and Zach who managed to pull through and win. They were far from my favos, but they were decent.

Jonny Gibbs - UK Survivor 2




Most people disagree, but I far preferred season 2 of UK Survivor to season 1. It was a lot more colorful and the people were very likable. I'll admit, out of the final 3, Jonny was the one I wanted to win least. But he was still overall a good guy. And if it wasn;t for the fact that I felt John, the 3rd place finisher carried him throughout the game I would like him more than I do now. My favorite Jonny moment came when they were discussing one of the girls in their tribe, who was just 21 and if she won the money wanted to buy a abandoned house, fix it up and then sell it for even more. In which Jonny replied, "You're 21, you shouldn't be thinking about this stuff. Use it to buy drugs or something" Which is funny enough, but double the laffos when you consider that he's a cop. Another notable moment was in the family reward visit, how ugly his girlfriend was. She really looked like a man, and being that he is quite attractive, it was such a odd pairing. He won in a unanimous vote, which was no surprise to anyone...and that was the last UK Survivor season ever.

Ethan Zohn - Survivor Africa




T.ears? Never liked Ethan, never will like Ethan. Bland, boring, nice guy who got by in his charm and never did anything worth noting from a strategy perspective. He came back like 2 years later with the idea that he was the "assistant coach" to Lex's "head coach" and let him take all the heat. Which is a decent enough way to go about it, if you said it at all on the show. But I don't believe for a second that was his plan out there, he just needed to think of something that sounded good when people asked how he won. Ethan was content riding coattails and letting everyone take him to the end. Then he got brought on All Stars and basically expected people to do the exact same thing for him again. Sorry Ethan, you aren;t that wonderful.

Brad Cotter - Nashville Star 2

The least successful of all the Nashville Star winners, and that's saying a lot cause they have all bombed. But Brad bombed far harder than anyone else and was released by the record company only a few months after his album dropped. Brad originally didn't even make it into the top 10, he was a wildcard who American voted in. He hung around a bunch of weeks just because of that, he was the first person a lot of people voted for so they stuck to him. Then original song night came and he hit it out of the ballpark with a beautiful song that he wrote called I Miss Me. Add that to the fact he's the only person to ever play the piano on the show and he was instantly beloved. He coasted for the rest of the season, beating out Canadian Mountie George Canyon...and from there it was off to the Where Are They Now files. Cause Brad was virtually never heard from again. Sad but true.

Carrie Underwood - American Idol 4




Ruh Roh times 1 billion. This will go over like a pickle in a punch bowl. Is Farmbot a roaring success? Yes, she is. Is she talented? Sure...why not. Do I like her? Nay. Would I ever willingly choose to listen to her pop country type of style? Heck no. Here's the deal, she's marketable and she was the chosen winner from the jump. Simon was heard on the phone before the season even began saying that the blonde country singer was gonna be the star, so whatevz, there was never really any doubt. And she has proved America made the right choice or whatever. But I felt she was overrated on the show and praised for performances that were mediocre at best. And Bo was someone who was completely fresh and new to this show and was as real as it can get. I've gotten over the bitterness of him not winning and them burying him at the finale so Carrie could get the win. But even without Bo, I would still not be a Farmbot fan. Cause she really ain't all that great. Trust
