Goodbye, Richard Hatch. The original Survivor winner was unanimously voted out last night and was his cocky self until the end. As predicted, they first merged into two tribes of seven. After Ethan successfully caught a fish, his new team may have gotten the impression that he’s a good provider, making Richard expendable. (That and Rich’s constant nudity may have gotten on their nerves) One person who sure didn’t appreciate Rich’s nudity was Susan Hawk. He not so inadvertently rubbed up against her during the immunity challenge, causing CBS to flash a disclaimer warning. (They sure are jittery after the Janet incident) Previews for next week show Susan ranting to Jeff Probst about it so maybe the network is worried about potential for a sexual harassment claim. Richard just can’t avoid controversy!
