TV Reality Show Contestant

The Resume

    Based in Forest Hills, New York
    Retired New York City Police Department morgue detective (nope, that is not a misprint)
    Registered nurse for the Long Island Jewish Hospital
    Eliminated in second duel on Survivor South Pacific (third exiled)

Why he might be annoying:

    He insisted on being referred to as ‘Papa Bear’ (‘everybody needs a daddy; I’ll be everybody’s daddy’).
    He gave viewers a Mike Borassi deja vu.
    If he was a weak challenge performer (according to Jim), how did he suddenly become a sprinter (according to Elyse)?
    His phoney idol bluff was not at all helped by the fact that Ozzy already got the real one out of a tree.
    As the scene where he was running through the woods in his underwear aired, Russell Hantz tweeted, ‘Run Piggy, run!’
    Before his Redemption Island duel, he warned John and Jim he would join forces with the Upolu tribe if he returned to the game.
    He sees Ozzy as a poor symbol of leadership.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is openly gay (and came out early in his career as a police officer).
    He hates know-it-alls.
    He loosely resembles Big Tom.
    Thanks to the 9/11 disasters, he spent six months living just outside the morgue.
    He wore a 9/11 tribute T-shirt on the show.
    He consoled Dawn as she emotionally broke down during the first days of the game.
    At Tribal Council, he admitted to having little in common with The Five (the key tribal alliance).
    He was one shot away from beating Christine in the sandbag duel — especially as one of her last shots landed on the very corner and fell off.
