Janet might have been voted out and not in the final four this season on 'Survivor: Island of the Idols' but fans claim she is a winner to them and America for standing up to what's right. 

'Survivor: Island of the Idols' Season 39 has come to its end with a two-hour episode that will air with the finale and reunion. It all started off with Jeff Probst talking to the idols, Boston Rob and Sandra Diaz about their time on the show. 

Back on the island, the five contestants were sent to the Island of the Idols for the remaining of their time. Dean already has an idol nullifier, and adding to that Tommy made a mistake by looping him in a dean which helped him find an immunity idol.



 

Up for the Immunity Challenge, the five contestants were all charged up and had just one motive, to win the immunity idol. Though Lauren, Janet, and Tommy were neck to neck for the win, in the end, Dean played a good move and won the immunity idol and a feast. 

He chose Noura to accompany him. Back on the island, Janet tells Tommy she has an idol, so she can use that to send Lauren home, but what she didn't know that Dean had an idol nullifier with him. Dean, Tommy and Lauren plan to send Janet home during the tribal council using the nullifier. 

And right enough their plan works, and Janet gets eliminated after Dean played his nullifier against Janet's immunity idol. Though it was an emotional moment to see Janet go home, fans claim in their point of view she is the winner.



 

Taking to Twitter, a fan wrote, "Ugh idc, Janet is this season's winner. Standing up for what's right no matter what. #Survivor #survivorfinale." Adding to that another said, "Janet won America’s heart and hopefully that means as much as a million bucks. Obviously it won’t pay bills but still. #Survivor@survivorcbs." 

"I love Janet and she's still the best thing to come out of this season. I really don't care who wins because she's the real winner of season 39," a fan shared. While another shared, "Janet was honestly the only person that deserve to win. #Survivor."
