CBS Has a New "Survivor" Winner

Spoiler alert! According to E! Online, Alabama cattle-rancher James "J.T." Thomas Jr. came out on top in the "Survivor: Tocantins" finale last night.

JT was chosen unanimously as the winner at the final tribal council, capturing the million-dollar prize and becoming the 18th season's sole survivor. Viewers at home also voted JT the fan favorite, adding another $100,000 to his winnings.

"I'm happy — it's probably the happiest I've ever been in my life, obviously," Thomas said.

JT used his nice guy image and charm to fly under the radar for much of the game, winning the final two immunity challenges and beating out friend and fellow competitor Stephen Fishbach to take home the victory.

Most Twitterers were thrilled by the results, and even those who were rooting for someone else tweeted some JT praise:
