Parvati Shallow’s 2015 Hall of Fame Ballot
Tyson Apostol – (“Survivor: Tocantins,” “Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains,” and “Survivor: Blood vs. Water”): Say what you will about this “Survivor” goofball, but Tyson belongs in the Hall of Fame. When I played with him on “Heroes vs Villains,” he made a hasty and foolish mistake that cost him the game. On his third time around, Tyson had clearly learned from his former blunders. Playing with his girlfriend Rachel on “Survivor: Blood vs. Water” brought out never-before-seen facets of his personality. Tyson can be serious? Tyson loves someone so much that he cries for her and commits to do whatever it takes to win, not for himself, but for Rachel? I love Tyson for his wacky sense of humor and for the great depth he showed us in his winning season of “Survivor.” And, now he’s a dad! Can you believe that?
Eliza Orlins – (“Survivor: Vanuatu” and “Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites”): Eliza is the force of nature who coined the infamous phrase “It’s just a (expletive deleted) stick!” Though not yet a “Survivor” winner, this woman is a ferocious competitor and a larger-than-life jury member. *Cue the eye-roll* *Cut to gaping jaw* For those reasons, she deserves Hall of Fame recognition. Each time Eliza graces our screens for a season of “Survivor,” her presence is felt…intensely. What she lacks in social grace, she makes up for in grit and determination. She’s tough as nails and will fight to the end. Then, when her torch does get snuffed, and she takes her place in the jury, you know she’s going to use her power and influence to ensure the best player wins.
Benjamin “Coach” Wade (aka The Dragon Slayer) – (“Survivor: Tocantins,” “Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains,” and “Survivor: South Pacific”): You know this whole “Survivor” yoga craze? Well, Coach may not have started it all, but he sure did make it cool. This man rocked the “Survivor” world with his feathers, coachi and grown man tears — how could we not fall in love? His strategic game in “Heroes vs. Villains” was tragically flawed; it’s never good to go after me from day one. But, he rose to the occasion his third time around, becoming a father figure to his flock and securing a spot in the final three. Sadly, Coach missed out on winning the game, but he still wins at life.
