Denise was really the only choice for a winner. Even if you watch the reunion when Jeff asks who would have voted for Malcolm if he made it to ftc Denise still beats him so one way or another the one million was waiting for her
both r iconic. denise is such a great winner, how she managed to survive every tribal councils of her season. abi is just such a great character and very entertaining for me.
The stranger thing is that i love both Abi and Denise so much in this season and i love it that in the end Abi did vote for her to win despite everything. A great winner and a great villan in the same season
Denise was masterful with her words. You can clearly see her clinical skills at play in this season dealing with different personalities and especially, with someone as difficult as Abi. Denise always maintained her composure and civility even when she was extremely frustrated with Abi's antics. The irony , of course, is that Abi was the only person to recognize that Denise was a huge threat to win. It really is amazing how no one considered taking Abi to the end and dumping Denise.

@@josharguello4313 i disagree with you when it comes to her social game at least when it comes to Abi, she was very condescending towards her.

@@jacksonriley6862 That may be true, but considering how difficult Abi was to be around and how no one could really deal with her, I dont blame Denise for struggling with her and talking down to her at times.

@@josharguello4313 being a brasilian myself I will say that a lot of her personality is cultural difference because we are very loud and blunt people, she reminds me of my mom, my grandma, almost all of my uncles and aunts and being in the environment she was in and everyone being as against her as they were she started being on the defense as much as she could which caused her to act like a “petulant child/heinous bitch” using your words when she was just trying to either be herself or defend her spot and she got I think a very crappy edit to be in favor of Denise since she won, but probably 80% of the issues was cultural 5% was the game and 5% was her personality
I love that Abi asked if they were talking about her and she heard her name, and they all stayed silent. That moment showed each persons character to a T.
@@Star_Jewel Not really. Denise was constantly talking about having "integrity" and playing an "honest" game yet she was the first to lie and say they weren't talking about her lmao.
I love Abi and Denise they are both queens. They actually made this season 10x more interesting. I love to see more rivalries! How about Sandra & Fairplay, Mike & Rodney, Courtney & Jean Robert and Chris & Domenick.
I think CBS already knows they have to cast her for HvV2. Her along with Kass. Thats why they havent come back again because they have a secure spot. Thats imo
"i have no doubt that selfish mess abi is never gonna give you her immunity idol" "abi, if this vote didn't go as planned, there's something seriously wrong in the universe" 😂
Abi while blunt was right a lot of the time. She called out the luxury Denise had of having an alliance. It reminds me of Sierra in Tocantins. What else is she supposed to do? sit there and lose
12:18: She is playing like an elite, like she the best of the best. Me: I agree, I mean she blindsided the only 2 time winner in survivor with 2 idols right?
Though Denise is a great winner gameplay-wise, I was always disgusted by the way she would constantly gaslight and patronize Abi, trying to make her seem “even crazier”. Like when she was talking crap about her with Lisa and Skupin, then acting like Abi’s crazy for confronting her, as if there was no reason for it.
What bugged me as well was her dismissal of the idea that cultural differences played a role in Abi's attitude. Which while not racist, is definitely really ignorant. Overall, I do think she does deserve some criticism, but it definitely didn't justify being ganged up on and being called crazy.
@@SmoothCriminal12 I also think she was trying very hard to manipulate Abi to have a mental breakdown (which i honestly think they should make a rule about cause it can cause long-term trauma) and the fact that she's a therapist makes me not wanna ever have her as my therapist or come across a therapist like her. You wouldn't even be able to know if she's manipulating you or helping you.
@@SmoothCriminal12 It also reeked of sexism. Men have been way more aggressive and difficult than Abi without getting all the shit for it that Abi did. And how blunt you are can totally be cultural.
@@SmoothCriminal12 thankfully there are people who are able to utilize just a chunk of their critical thinking and understand how unnecessary denise’s demeanor and choice of words were. just like abi stated, she was so using her therapist tactics.
Abi is one of those players fun to watch miserable to play with, when you see Abi on 2 completely different seasons pissing the entire cast off that most definitely said something about her than anyone else
The thing that just someone who speaks other language will get is that you will never be able to express yourself ! People may be able to understand what you mean, but never what you want to say ! And that is huge !
2:30 Denise is super manipulative like Tom from Survivor: Palau. She creates the appearance for the jury that she is playing an "honorable" game by loudly announcing she will be leaving Abi-Maire, the most obvious goat, out of the final four, while quietly taking the other deadweights (Lisa and Michael) to the final four. If there were any sincerity to her claim Penner and Carter should be sitting in those two seats.
Denise gives these descriptions of Abbi and the only thing that it makes me feel is that Denise is completely unaware of that she too can be just as awful as the behavior she accuses Abbi of
Abi voting for Denise to win despite their conflict shows she's more than the selfish person we assume she is on the show. She's a good hearted person, she just really direct and doesn't realize when she's doing too much.
I still believe she’s a selfish and immature person, but not bitter. I’m pretty sure the only reason Abi voted for Denise was because Denise was the only finalist to formally apologize to Abi.
@@sadieteawalsh Here's her explanation for voting for Denise. "To me, the deciding factor was her perseverance in the game. Denise’s trajectory and her storyline were strong. Her social game and strength were all taken into consideration. My relationship with Skupin and Lisa had a lot of baggage. They didn’t stick with the alliance, and they lost complete credibility at that point. Denise and I were battling hard because we both wanted to get to the end."
denise was far more manipulative than abi. abi was a mess but she was honest to a fault. denise played the saint and covertly directed tension towards evil abi while making it seem like she was cornered to do so. in the real world, denise is the kind of person to keep an eye out for lol. very entertaining regardless.
@Chris VanGogh yeah i wasn't knocking denise for being manipulative. i was knocking people who don't seem to realize that she is being manipulative despite her moral crusade against abi. pretty simple distinction.
Abi didn't need Denise to make her look bad. Abi's bad behavior was exhibited constantly and was commented on by every single member of the tribe. Denise is the only one that didn't let Abi off the hook, get intimidated by her antics or try to avoid a confrontation with her. Maybe because Denise works as a therapist she was better than others at addressing Abi's bad behavior directly, but I don't think anything Denise said to her was cruel or malicious. However, the best thing that happened to Denise's game is to have Abi on the tribe. So much attention was devoted to Abi that people neglected to see what a huge threat Denise was to win the game. Nothing unites people as having a common enemy, and Abi's obnoxiousness ensured that the majority remained on Denise's side. Denise is the only contestant to go to every single tribal in a season and still win the game.
Denise really isn't any of those things. Abi just pushes people too much. Literally everyone Abi was around she drove crazy. Even reasonable people like Denise.
@@koolkidgood8022 No, Abi simply was just crazy and hard to be around. She was like this on both of her seasons. She was so hard to be around that one of the players refused to be on another season after realizing Abi was on it lol
She’s such good TV, I’m glad they brought her back later on. They should have listened to her when she was warning them that Denise or Malcolm would absolutely win if they made it to the end. I absolutely would have flipped, because she’s right.
@@zippyzap1354 It did not. Wait till someone you calls the most unlikable person and what not. You have to be polite if not gentle towards people no matter what.
Denise was trying to be kind to her and explain it gently, but Abi literally talks over Denise. Denise was trying but gave up because Abi is so difficult.
Abi was 100% right. Denise herself kept saying “Abi is the perfect player to take to the end” but in her own manipulative way she’d add “if that’s how you want to play”. She definitely knew what she was doing. Lol
Abi's problem is that she really lacks sense of humor and takes herself too seriously. It's the reason that most of annoying people are annoying. Also can't wait to see how Denise will do in Winners at War. Wonder if Abi's at home rooting for her xD
Denise did say in an interview recently about WaW that abi is a fantastic person ohtside of the game and they have a good relationship. So Im sure Abi is rooting for her.
Abi’s personality type might not have been the favorite of her tribe mates, but I would argue she does have the survivor spirit in her own little way. The continuous reference to her cultural barriers, emphasizing a separation between her and everyone else, forcing her into the role of “other” was ridiculous and alienating. Abi’s high voice and feminine nature was frustrating to her tribe but her behavior clearly was influenced by her strong Latin roots and the exhausting duty to defend herself constantly. Her struggle to defend herself was met with the knowledge of being “dead weight” and the least “like able” or relatable according to the others via Denise. I think she could sense that Denise was devoted to picking at her and projecting a lot of unfair jealousy and prejudice onto Abi. There was a lot of mean spirited energy thrown her way and I think she got fed up, especially knowing she was being ganged up on. Denise was condescending and patronizing and seemed she wanted more than to get Abi voted off but to actually inflict hurt upon her because she was honest about her feelings and was bright and cute. She didn’t deserve such harshness just because she called people out for being disrespectful towards her.
This is the most revisionist review of abi I’ve ever read. She was unreasonable and confrontational. There’s not much to it. People were nice to her early on, but her personality started to grind on people. That’s it.
@@Murmurrr I do think Abi deserves some criticism for how she handled herself on the show. However, I do think some of it was the edit making her look worse than she was, not to mention Pete basically pitting her and RC against each other also plays a role. It says a lot when there's not a lot of criticism going towards Abi after the show and RC is seen as a bitter bitch.
Why do people throw around the word passive aggressive so much?? Abi is literally the complete opposite, she says EXACTLY what she is thinking lmao. (Denise says it at 7:10)
I’m watching this season rn and Abi is extremely passive aggressive. She’ll say there’s no problem but then act 100% like there is. Watch her conversations with RC, it’s most obvious there.
@@mikeortega6417 Abi is Passive Aggresiveness Incarnate. People that have had personal issues with Abi: RC, Denise, Malcolm, Lisa, Penner, Peih Gee, Savage, Spencer, Woo. Meanwhile Denise is a successful therapist and won the show.
Did you forget that it was all cause of Peter? and that Abi didnt vote RC out? and that Abi actually apologized to RC in ponderosa? and that RC was still bitter to the end?
fijidrinkin You’re not wrong. I’m just saying that Abi isn’t innocent either. Were people judge mental? Yes. But Abi clearly overreacted. And as for RC should she be BFFs with Abi all of the sudden? Time heals all wounds and it’s down to RC if she wants to be friends with Abi.
Had Abi not fumbled the folding of her vote for Denise and have to fold it properly, it would probably go down as one of the most badass votes ever cast
im not trying to diagnose abi with anything, but im on the spectrum and a lot of the stuff that ppl in the game hated abi for are traits of autism so its really frustrating and heartbreaking to see a therapist talk down to and belittle someone for behaving in ways that are consistent with autism (misunderstanding social cues, being too open and honest, being highly sensitive and defensive, being pessimistic).
That not autism that just Latin culture. In that culture been honest is a very desirable trait. No one likes manipulative mean spirited people like Denise.
Denise owned Abi, she and the rest of the tribe put up with her for ages, when asked by Jeff, she clearly explained what was wrong, Abi got triggered and cried. Immediately I knew Abi would use that to paint Denise as a bully. Big suprised: she whined about it the following episode. I know these kind of people, they'd use every tool in their limited arsenal in order to be perceived as the victim. She'd start a fire, burn your house, and blame the match. She can't take any criticism and everything is an attack. The way she keeps interrupting Denise was a prime example. The way she kept threatening RC was a prime example. The way she pointed out to anyone with ears that she wasn't liked was a prime example. Mads respect to Denise who could have caved in numerous times but remained collected. It's like fighting with a hormonal teenager at this point.
Abi was low key right when she said Denise is a therapist she knows what she’s doing.
The only right thing she said was a compliment
Abis always Lowkey right
@@adamsbriee6330 that’s definitely not true

Video should've ended with Abi voting to give Denise the million.
Well yeah 🤷🏽 its cause Denise was the only logical choice between Skupin and Lisa since they both flipped on Abi and the Tandang alliance.
Hlengiwe Mngadi Denise also played a better game than Lisa and Skupin. Abi’s psychic, she said this would happen. Hahahahaha
I’m your 800th like.
Hlengiwe Mngadi But she hated Denise so I’d just assume she vote for Lisa instead
@@sideeswipe Actually it was RC who voted for Lisa, Carter was the only one who voted for Mike, and everybody else voted for Denise.
Denise was really good with her argument in the final five. If I were any of those, I would have taken Abi to the end.
Could you imagine Lisa winning Philippines? it could have happened if Abi was in the Ftc instead of Denise
True, I remember hearing that Lisa wanted to spare Abi for this reason, but Skupin wouldn’t listen.
Her skills as a therapist definitely helped her win
At the end, Abi voted for Denise. One of the least bitter juror ever. The Bb19 and bb20 juries should have took notes
Abi might’ve been insane in philippines but at least she wasn’t an idiot
I agree with bb20 but if Paul had owned his moves he could’ve won. Denise was also a lot nicer than Paul was.
@Cam Quintin but she loathed Denise
Abi is like a Superhero villain that no one can hate.
Abi is actually a very nice person in real life. She gets really bad edit and people sees her the wrong way all the time in the game.

@@tmm4195 bruh Denise made abi seem so much more crazy then she was
@@koolkidgood8022 No, Abi simply was just crazy and hard to be around. She was like this on both of her seasons. She was so hard to be around that one of the players refused to be on another season after realizing Abi was on it lol
@@tmm4195are you deaf ? Or blind? She uses her therapy tactics to manipulate
A rivalry where both of them are great. Philippines would be so boring without Abi.
She’s such good TV, I’m glad they brought her back later on. They should have listened to her when she was warning them that Denise or Malcolm would absolutely win if they made it to the end. I absolutely would have flipped, because she’s right.
Dude that was the worst day of your life?!?! Then count yourself lucky!!! Unbelievable....
People would love to see Abi back again, but nobody is clamoring to see Denise return.
she is just a horrible person
@@Guts-blood because abi said so? i think you're a horrible person
If “whiners are wieners” isn’t the best catch phrase I don’t know what is
I mean Abi was clearly a pain to deal with, but Denise went a little too far with her comments about Abi. Both of them are great characters though.
No. It needed to be said.
@@zippyzap1354 It did not. Wait till someone you calls the most unlikable person and what not.
You have to be polite if not gentle towards people no matter what.
Denise was trying to be kind to her and explain it gently, but Abi literally talks over Denise. Denise was trying but gave up because Abi is so difficult.
@@zippyzap1354 Other contestants from Survivor Philippines said Denise was too harsh on Abi as well.
Abi was 100% right. Denise herself kept saying “Abi is the perfect player to take to the end” but in her own manipulative way she’d add “if that’s how you want to play”. She definitely knew what she was doing. Lol
Abi's problem is that she really lacks sense of humor and takes herself too seriously. It's the reason that most of annoying people are annoying. Also can't wait to see how Denise will do in Winners at War. Wonder if Abi's at home rooting for her xD
Denise did say in an interview recently about WaW that abi is a fantastic person ohtside of the game and they have a good relationship. So Im sure Abi is rooting for her.
Abi is for sure a lock on HvV2
Abi’s personality type might not have been the favorite of her tribe mates, but I would argue she does have the survivor spirit in her own little way. The continuous reference to her cultural barriers, emphasizing a separation between her and everyone else, forcing her into the role of “other” was ridiculous and alienating. Abi’s high voice and feminine nature was frustrating to her tribe but her behavior clearly was influenced by her strong Latin roots and the exhausting duty to defend herself constantly. Her struggle to defend herself was met with the knowledge of being “dead weight” and the least “like able” or relatable according to the others via Denise. I think she could sense that Denise was devoted to picking at her and projecting a lot of unfair jealousy and prejudice onto Abi. There was a lot of mean spirited energy thrown her way and I think she got fed up, especially knowing she was being ganged up on. Denise was condescending and patronizing and seemed she wanted more than to get Abi voted off but to actually inflict hurt upon her because she was honest about her feelings and was bright and cute. She didn’t deserve such harshness just because she called people out for being disrespectful towards her.
This is the most revisionist review of abi I’ve ever read. She was unreasonable and confrontational. There’s not much to it. People were nice to her early on, but her personality started to grind on people. That’s it.
@@Murmurrr fr she was a bully and at the end she got bullied. poetic justice
@@Murmurrr I do think Abi deserves some criticism for how she handled herself on the show. However, I do think some of it was the edit making her look worse than she was, not to mention Pete basically pitting her and RC against each other also plays a role. It says a lot when there's not a lot of criticism going towards Abi after the show and RC is seen as a bitter bitch.
@@Murmurrrdo you not hear the absolute ridiculous and absurd shit they say behind her back????
Why do people throw around the word passive aggressive so much?? Abi is literally the complete opposite, she says EXACTLY what she is thinking lmao.
(Denise says it at 7:10)
yeah Abi isn't at all passive aggressive!
I’m watching this season rn and Abi is extremely passive aggressive. She’ll say there’s no problem but then act 100% like there is. Watch her conversations with RC, it’s most obvious there.
Denise is projecting her own passive aggressiveness
@@mikeortega6417 Abi is Passive Aggresiveness Incarnate. People that have had personal issues with Abi: RC, Denise, Malcolm, Lisa, Penner, Peih Gee, Savage, Spencer, Woo. Meanwhile Denise is a successful therapist and won the show.
1:45 RC looks like that kid from Elf.
Abi trolling “I don’t want to cook”- wig snatched
Did people forget Abi was also cruel to RC? Just saying
Did you forget that it was all cause of Peter? and that Abi didnt vote RC out? and that Abi actually apologized to RC in ponderosa? and that RC was still bitter to the end?
fijidrinkin You’re not wrong. I’m just saying that Abi isn’t innocent either. Were people judge mental? Yes. But Abi clearly overreacted. And as for RC should she be BFFs with Abi all of the sudden? Time heals all wounds and it’s down to RC if she wants to be friends with Abi.
@@hoshghk She may not have written her name down, but Abi obviously didn't mind if RC was voted out since she was the contingency plan.
@ 11:01 - it’s a shame Skupin didn’t burst into flames at this very moment.
I do feel like it was a bit of a cultural clash with Abi, she does have a very strong personality. I also feel like she was bullied to an extent.
Denise was literally gaslighting Abbi
I’ve got news for you. They’re playing survivor. Everyone is gaslighting everyone.
Denise keeps gaslighting Abi! Team Abi Maria here
Malcolm at 6:05 lmao
They should have listened to her at Final 5
Am i crazy for saying that Abi wasn’t that bad a person from my perspective?
I don’t think there was too much of a “social misunderstanding”. Attitude and tone played a big part.
Totally agree, Abi is just a horrible person who acts without thinking. Very immature.
I love this so much! Icons. Legends. Queens.
Can you do Chris vs Domenick from Ghost Island next?
Had Abi not fumbled the folding of her vote for Denise and have to fold it properly, it would probably go down as one of the most badass votes ever cast
I... am baggage?
It’s rich seeing Skupin comment on Abi’s condition
I actually felt bad for Abi when she was crying. I mean being cultural different. Also she clocked Denise.
It’s funny. For a therapist, Denise has extremely low patience, lol.
This was the first season I ever watched. I really hope that Denise does well in S40.
Stuff And Things Omg this is my first season too.
Im from the future. Yes Denise blindsided Sandra
@@carlopatigdas I'm from the future and that move didn't age well and also Denise had really lame gameplay in WaW merge-wise
im not trying to diagnose abi with anything, but im on the spectrum and a lot of the stuff that ppl in the game hated abi for are traits of autism so its really frustrating and heartbreaking to see a therapist talk down to and belittle someone for behaving in ways that are consistent with autism (misunderstanding social cues, being too open and honest, being highly sensitive and defensive, being pessimistic).
That not autism that just Latin culture. In that culture been honest is a very desirable trait. No one likes manipulative mean spirited people like Denise.
@@Guts-blood no ones likes you then i guess
Honestly I feel bad for Abi, she really got stuck on a tribe with a bunch of self righteous A-holes
Yeah okay
If Abi doesn't return for a legends season we RIOT. CBS please make it happen lol
Denise owned Abi, she and the rest of the tribe put up with her for ages, when asked by Jeff, she clearly explained what was wrong, Abi got triggered and cried. Immediately I knew Abi would use that to paint Denise as a bully. Big suprised: she whined about it the following episode. I know these kind of people, they'd use every tool in their limited arsenal in order to be perceived as the victim. She'd start a fire, burn your house, and blame the match. She can't take any criticism and everything is an attack. The way she keeps interrupting Denise was a prime example. The way she kept threatening RC was a prime example. The way she pointed out to anyone with ears that she wasn't liked was a prime example. Mads respect to Denise who could have caved in numerous times but remained collected. It's like fighting with a hormonal teenager at this point.
Osten vs palican season 7
i truly felt awful for abi during the penultimate tribal between her and denise. she could not catch a break and she had no one to stand up for her.
everyone likes Denise, but watching this season, I always was on Abi’s side and i just found her better than Denise
Mike talking about Abi having various psychological conditions. Oh, the irony...
Skupin saying Abi has every psychological condition... Lol, the irony. Abi is a great person in real life, Skupin definitely isn't.
Yep.
Did they not have a shelter?
