Cut- Janet Koth

407. Janet Koth- Season 6- Amazon

Part of me feels like Janet should go a bit further but part of me also feels this is probably roughly where she sits? I really have to debate whether Janet herself was iconic or whether it was events around her. Anyway, she started as a classic "fish out of water" older woman on Jaburu. She was pleasant and well-liked, then she got sick. That would've been enough to doom her to being Jaburu's first boot- but things got ~worse. ~Someone~ discovered a granola bar (hint: it was mean Jeanne Hebert) and the blame was placed squarely on Janet. With no way to defend herself, she was promptly booted at the first Jaburu Tribal Council. Her final words are iconic though "to all you women having a mid-life crisis- go to Cancun"

I appreciate Janet as well, she's a reminder of how good casting used to be. Not cos she's anything special but because she's such a "regular" woman. It's something we don't get much of these days and it's nice to remember little people like Janet who weren't insta models or aspiring actresses or tragic survivors of horrible circumstances. She was just a simple homemaker and there's nothing wrong with that!
