Rupert Boneham of Survivor 7 Pearl Islands
was Survivor's very own 'Wild Man
of Borneo'. So bet your bottom dollar
that Hollywood's next caveman flick will
feature ol' Rupert in some key role or
other.
For ten solid episodes Rupert was *the* face of
S7, as ubiquitous a presence as they come.
And rightly so. Not to put too fine a
point on it, but seriously if we're
ever stranded in the wild for real, we'd
welcome having the guy alongside.
Because with Rupert around, one would never starve, and
probably wouldn't long for conversation, either.
Unfortunately on Survivor it's not necessarily
about catching fish, nor spinning tales,
nor rallying the troops. It's about
staying under the radar enough to *not*
attract votes at Tribal Council, and in that
sense Rupert never had a chance. From
the get-go he was a clear threat to win it
all, and in a game where backroom alliances
dictate the action, Rupert's ouster on Day
27 didn't surprise many.
Even so the wild man had the last laugh. For he
was the *only* S7 castaway invited to
participate in the S8 All-Stars, and
interestingly enough was right back in
Panama competing even as his S7 ouster was
airing on CBS for the first time. Yes,
Rupert deserved a better fate than befell
him on S7, but we shall see what S8 holds in
store...
