I felt that Cinnamon(possible mispelling of name) should of stayed. I was really going for her.

It's kind of sad how Cinnamon was motivating the other girls, but slipped. How many of you felt bad when she cried? The way I look at it, it looks like Cinnamon "sacrificed" her spot on Endurance for the rest of the girls. What do you think would happen if she survived?

I feel like she possibly could have been the target instead of Briana, because a lot of other people thought she was too young and immature.

They should do a special endurance, bringing back the people who were eliminated in the right to stay. Though they would be adults.

Especially if they were from Endurance 1. And that's why you can't have an all-star season, either. Their game plan might have changed.

I once heard that for Endurance 6 they planned to bring back all 4 contestants eliminated and make them into two teams, which I assume to be Gray and Brown. This didn't happen though due to the lack of funding for the show, there was so few episodes too. This might be untrue, but I swear I have read this before somewhere.

No it's true, Andres' brother said this on the boards one time. It was more expensive to film in Fiji than they thought, which is why the twist was abandoned at the last second.

And maybe that's why the show ended--because of funding on E6.

Yeah that's my theory.....I think their funds were depleted because it was too expensive to film in Fiji and they were just never able to bounce back...I mean, if you think about it, Endurance is probably really expensive because you have to build all those mission sets and everything.

Seriously, and so many extra pieces need to be bought for every mission. Like every mission down to the finals have that teams colored parts. Do you understand what I'm trying to say? Like think about it, especially in Endurance 5 they had to have all the team colored items for the final four 'Create Your Own Mission' which means they must have the same other three colors too that go unnoticed. Although some were probably used. But yeah just a lot of supplies, expensive location, and such made E6 sort of kill the show IMO. Miss it so much though and maybe someday when I'm older I will try to make something similar if I win the lottery or something.

Yeah Mitch that always amazed me, for every challenge, they had to make sets of equipment in EVERY SINGLE COLOR, even if it's like the final 3 or something! That's a lot of equipment that goes, like, unused.

Maybe if the producers were more economical (e.g, waiting for results before making specific color-coded sets), then the show would've gone on longer. Or if thy were sponsored by a major company...

I think if E6 was on basic cable it would have helped a lot as well. Honestly none of my friends knew Endurance because where I live Endurance has been on channel 120 since the first few seasons..

I think that if Endurance was still on NBC, they might have had higher ratings, which would have led to more funding, and possibly may have aired in primetime a few years down the road. That is, with old enough contestants.

That is, with old enough contestants. Definitely. But that means reforming the entire show right then and there. Another possibility in getting the show back (if possible) is through Kickstarter. Kickstarter is where people back projects and fund them. www.kickstarter.com/I've heard of the Veronica Mars film being supported by that, and it was a canceled television series. But we need enough fans and 3Ball's support for the project.

Someone also said that, by that point, JD fully believed in the gray curse, and that's why there was no gray team for Fiji. The money thing is also feasible. They should have left the show in the US. It costs a fortune to send all those people and one parent plus the "behind the scenes people" to Fiji for a couple weeks. I wonder if they could have taped missions on the same day or even done a mission on Saturday.
