That's not to say that she won't go far and probably end up in the Final 3 but somewhere along the line the ice is going to crack. Yeah I consider myself a casual viewer and its so obvious that she's gonna win and hello Kim is at the fucking intro like as if she already became the sole survivor. I just hope the editors are fooling us and Kim will not be the winner.

Her edit is showing her as almost a villain, masterminding the game, but does the mastermind always win? No. Last episode, she was shown as betraying Mike and running the show, but it didn't come across as a positive mastermind. She may make the F3, but will probably lose to Sabrina (Hence maybe Sabrina's non-shown edit, since they feel Sabrina 'robbed' Kim). I don't know, but I think Kim winning is almost TOO obvious. There's a reason Rob was given the greatest edit ever, because he's loved by Jeff and the producers.

It's just too obvious and I think I would like the season better if Kim came up just short. I don't think she's really being portrayed as a villain, though. Not much negativity with her edit.

It would be as if someone spoiled the first episode that Kim would win. It's quite obvious Kim will win, and I hate that. I don't like predictability. RI and SP sucked because of the pagonging and the obvious fact Rob/Sophie would win. The boots may be somewhat shocking this season (Though not really) but the ultimate outcome (Kim winning) is still obvious. I would rather have a random, shocking winner like Chris, Fabio than an obvious winner like Rob, Yul, Tom, and now Kim.

Someone who doesn't look like the others who we normally see excelling at this game waltzes in and says "Sure, my parts may look different, but I'm going to play the fuck out of this thing and I'm gonna make you love me." I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she got her own Ben & Jerry's flavour by the time this thing wraps up. "Winning Wedding Cake" or something... Last Edited By: Bulletin Bored 04/05/12 03:21 PM.

If you draw a ven diagram between the two, then the overlap (Kim/Chelsea) really has it in the bag, and even the dullest of dullards picks Kim as the winner between those two. Casual or diehard, everyone sees a Kim win coming.

Remember what she said in episode one about men not treating her like a lady? She's overcome a lot to earn the men's respect. I think her win will be shocking to all viewers, to be quite honest.

Yes, it's all a huge conspiracy and it makes perfect sense tbh, especially since we know Probst and production have historically favored women over men, right? She couldn't possibly be getting a perfect winner's edit because she wins. That would be preposterous.

Just like Boston Rob was. Its as simple as that. There's no underhandedness to it, no complicated formula or strategy on the editor's part, its simply giving the time to the her because she's the best one there and is deciding everything that happens.
