Survivor All-Stars Update
So Jenna decided to give up the game and go home to her dying mother, throwing her tribe and the others into a bit of a tizzy and eliminating the need for an immunity challenge and tribal council.
Now, I don't like to judge, but doesn't it seem a bit greedy and shallow to agree to go on a second Survivor, which last 40 days, when your mother is on her death bed (she died 8 days after Jenna returned home) and you already won a million dollars when you did it the last time?
Who knows what her motives were, and she did the right thing in the end, and admitted that she made a "bad judgement call" coming out to a remote island during her mother's last days. And she's young, and probably not all that smart. But it was her mother for godsake!
Well, I guess Survivor is not really the place one goes for lessons in values and decency. I shouldn't be surprised.
