JEFF PROBST:Tony is such a delight to watch playSurvivor.

He didnt hunt for idols, in fact, he only found one the entire game.

I was also really impressed with how malleable he tried to be with Sarah.

I agree with what he said at final, that he didnt really make many mistakes.

This is what it was like every day.

These 20 players went hard every minute of every day.

And they did it, almost without exception, with class.

I thought it was beautiful, powerful, and real.

Natalie was well aware that Chris had set the tone in season 38.

I think it was clear that she didnt feel confident enough in her fire-making skills to take out Tony.

So she put someone up against her who she thought might be able to take him out.

Natalie played as hard as she could play on the Edge.

He also had a very tight bond with Sarah.

I am fading… if you’ve got the option to benefit from that… do so.

“And Sarah did.

Ive been withSurvivorfor 20 years and Ive made plenty of mistakes along the way.

I also hope that Ive changed, grown, and matured throughout the years.

Im not the same person I was when I started with the show in 2000.

Ive learned so much from these players.

Im grateful to Sarah for bringing up the topic.

It gave me the opportunity to address my own life lessons!

Building a Tribal Council in my garage took me back to my early production days.

It was actually a lot of fun.

We also shipped cameras and lights and everything else we needed to pull off the show.

I am really impressed with all three of them.

They handled the vote read with total grace.

A great ending to a great season!
