"Survivor: Pearl Islands" is over and I'm sad. It happens every time a game ends. "Survivor All-Stars" will not start until February and I'm going through withdrawals already.
As a fan, I feel like I have been a part of the entire experience at the Pearl Islands and I feel I know all the contestants. As a former contestant, I know how difficult the game truly is to play.
One of my favorite characters earned the million-dollar prize. Outspoken and feisty Sandra Diaz-Twine won it all. She fully deserves it. The 29-year-old mother of two skillfully played the game better than the other 15 contestants. Good job, Sandra.

December 16, 2003
THE FOUR DIRTIEST words in the "Survivor" lexicon until now have been "Fly under the radar."
Sure, lying in the weeds while the stronger players pick each other off is an effective strategy. Three of the series' six previous winners traveled that route: Tina from Australia, Ethan from Africa, Vecepia from Marquesas.
But good strategy doesn't always make for good television, and the franchise has been plagued over the years by too many players who go far in the game despite displaying all the color of a roll of toilet paper.
Thank goodness, then, for "Pearl Islands" champion Sandra Diaz-Twine, who showed you can fly under the radar and still have a personality.

Why is it, when the second edition of "Joe Millionaire" tanks due to lack of interest, that the 88th edition of "Survivor" continues to hold so many millions of people captivated?
The show - in its sixth edition - drew 25.4 million viewers Sunday, making it most popular show of the night. Compare that with the 19.4 million people who saw Trista and Ryan's wedding.
"Survivor" works because it's not based on a single gimmick, as "Joe Millionaire" and NBC's "Average Joe" were.

Online bookmaker suspicious of betting

"Survivor" may have a security problem.
Before the first episode was even televised this season, more than 15 people from the Vancouver, British Columbia, area placed bets with an offshore bookie on contestant Sandra Diaz-Twine.
On Sunday night, Diaz-Twine was revealed as the winner during the show's season finale on CBS.
