Like everyone else this festive time of year, Survivor: Gabon has a hefty to-do list.

To think, CBS' reality TV dinosaur has to hand out a cheque for $1 million on tomorrow's finale -- but not before it rounds the final five castaways down to one in just two hours.

That's a lot of eliminating in not a lot of time. So you can bet your butt there'll be plenty of action when Survivor's 17th installment wraps on Global and CBS.

The final five castaways -- Bob Crowley, Kenny Hoang, Sugar Kiper, Susie Smith and Matty Whitmore -- are all strong, smart and strategic in their own ways.

Still, four of them are going to have to drop like flies. Jury members Marcus Lehman, Charlie Herschel, Randy Bailey, Corinne Kaplan and Crystal Cox will have the final say -- after I put in my two cents:

Robert (Bob) Crowley

Age: 58

Hometown: Portland, Maine

Why He's a Threat: By winning the past four challenges, this lovable middle-aged physics teacher has proved he's physically AND mentally capable of schooling the young 'uns.

Prediction: Bob comes out on top; science geeks everywhere rejoice.

Ken (Kenny) Hoang

Age: 22

Hometown: Westminster, Calif.

Why He's a Threat: Call him sweet, but little Kenny is a one helluva mastermind. And what else could you expect from a professional video gamer?

Prediction: He can outwit and outplay, but given his delicate frame, this underdog can't outlast when it comes to physical challenges. He'll fall into fourth place.

Jessica (Sugar) Kiper

Age: 29

Hometown: Brooklyn, N.Y.

Why She's a Threat: She came into the game as a cute pinup girl, but Sugar has established herself as a solid strategist and makes friends -- a.k.a. alliances -- very easily. She's tight with Bob and cool with Matty, who owes her after she gave him the immunity idol off her back at the last tribal council.

Prediction: The fact that she gave away her idol shows sweet Sugar is playing with her heart -- and could possibly be duped. She'll finish third.

Susie Smith

Age: 47

Hometown: Charles City, Iowa

Why She's a Threat: We know very little about Susie, other than that she's not ashamed to take a bubble bath in front of everyone. She also hasn't done anything wrong, which makes it hard for her fellow castaways to find reasons to vote her out.

Prediction: Flying under the radar gets you far in Survivor, but it doesn't get you $1 million. She'll be first to go tomorrow.

Matty Whitmore

Age: 29

Hometown: Pacific Palisades, Calif.

Why He's a Threat: Muscles, muscles and more muscles.

Prediction: If Survivor: China's James taught us anything, it's that physical threats wear big targets on their backs. Personal trainer Matty is lucky he also has a brawny brain that could take him to the Top 2. But he doesn't stand a chance against Bob when it comes to facing the jury, who won't vote for him -- possibly because they're jealous of his hot bod.
