Survivor

[sly fly]

"Old survivors"? What do you mean by this? Wouldn't they just split the tribe up 3 ways?

Rupert might be the most powerful, but Christa isn't too far behind. That girl is a beast (she carried that weight longer than Osten.)

My money is on her to win the whole thing.

Wait a second? I just saw the preview. Looks like the ones who got voted out are coming back. Wow. I hope they aren't eligible to win the whole thing.

If they are there just to play spoilers, then fine. But, if they aren't..... Survivor just

...Jumped The Shark!!

 

[Brian in Mesa]

I don't think bringing the outcasts back as a third tribe, hellbent on revenge is jumping the shark.

It's Survivor changing the rules which keeps the show interesting.

You never know exactly what to expect each episode.

I for one am glad each season is more than just the same thing over again with different people.

 

[sly fly]

Actually, it turned out fine.

Osten's a waste. John isn't too far behind. Rupert made him sh** his pants for awhile. It was fun trying to see him wiggle out of it.

My money's on Christa or Burton to win the whole thing.

Looks like Osten didn't want to give his parting speech. What a loser.

Johnny-fair-play has to be the most annoying Survivor ever.

Genius plot twist, especially making us all wait a week to see who is back in...

Skinny Ryan's buff was classic: DIE JERKS

 

[Mike Olbinski]

I don't see how anyone thinks Christa is going to win this...she's just being carried along by Rupert. Burton will be strong, but I'll bet Rupert beats him in most challenges...but we'll see.

Either way, like Andrew said...these outcasts wont last two tribal councils...Burton was kicked out once...he'll go again.

Only thing is, the person voted back in to the tribe from the outcast tribe can't be voted off until the tribe goes to tribal council twice. By then, there could be a merge and who knows what could happen.

I like Savage. Not sure why. His team sucks so bad.

Exactly what I was thinking. They get in, they are immune from being voted off, then the tribes merge and they will last as long as they can win immunity challenges or make pacts with others.

How cool must it have been to get voted off and then have Probst take you aside and explain that you may have an opportunity to get back into the game?

The other thing to remember is they didn't say which tribe you go to, it's entirely possible that say Burton won't go to his original tribe. Then strategically it makes sense to keep him through the merge knowing the other tribe members will want to vote him out again after the merge.

I think they are going to merge when the two are chosen, but that's just my guess.

Someone told me they usually do it at 10, but someone else said 8, so I'm not sure.

I think they mix it up to keep the players guessing.

Classic Survivor.

They had everyone thinking one more week until a merge...and they go ahead and merge this week.

Anyone else attempt to strangle Johnny "Fairplay" through their tv set?

Ugh. I hope he's the next to go.

Most annoying Survivor ever.

What was with that weak "Macho Man" impersonation?

Savage is likely a decent lawyer. He was able to say he was proud of his tribe and what they accomplished without cracking up into hysterical laughter. Seriously - they were the suckiest sucks that ever sucked.

I'm pretty bummed that Savage is gone, he was one of the guys I wanted to see have a chance at winning it.

Johnny needs to go...the guy is so cocky, and he's probably next! Show some humility!

I was pissed Savage was voted off! I was hoping to see him have a chance as well!

I want to shoot Jon myself!

 

[Dback Jon]

Classic seeing the looks on Jon as he started to pile up some votes.

Couldn't care less about Savage - he was a horrible "leader". Good to see his bad treatment of Lil come to bite him on the ass.

I couldn't believe he actually asked her "Will you get back to me before the vote?" DOH!

Why would she? That's exactly what she asked him before the council in which she got voted off...he said he'd get back to her...but he didn't.

What's starting to bother me is Jon still being in the game now that they've merged. He may be around awhile because now the strategy will be to get rid of the strongest people and he's behind Rupert, Burton, and Ryan O at least. And the longer the game goes on, people will be trying to keep some loser like Jon around knowing that they would easily defeat him in a final council to decide the Survivor winner.

BTW: Anyone see the preview for the next one? Rupert tells Jon "Vote against me and I will KILL you..." Then some of the other members are saying that this is the perfect time to vote off Rupert... And it actually looked like the women were setting a trap intended to injure one of the men...

 

[sly fly]

Well, that sucks.

May John have his gonads ripped off by a shark.

Lame.

Next one looks interesting as the tribe falls apart. They'll probably start starving again.

Fools.

Jon is the biggest punk to ever be on that show, I mean he's just an arse. He's been carried along so far, the guy has no right to be there.

Burton is smart though, take the guy everyone hates to the final two...guaranteed $1 million.

Sad to see Rupert go, but it might be time for him to head home...I think he started really thinking he was a pirate

Also:

Did anyone else notice that Jeff had read 2 votes for Darrah, 1 for Jon, then 3 for Rupert, and read a 4th. That's 7 votes, 4 for Rupert, the 8th one shouldn't have mattered. But he read it like it did. Anyone know why? It was weird.

I thought it was weird that Sandra voted for Jon.

Rupert was too trusting, big heart like that guy has can't win the game.

I'm afraid Burton is going to win this one.

Lil is weird, did anyone besides me hear Burton tell her to stop kissing him on the lips?

Yeah - I noticed that too.

I thought Rupert was starting to lose it a little.

I wouldn't mind seeing oone of the girls winning or Burton - but not John.

I thought Rupert's speech at the end was pathetic. Hwo doesn't need the money? He sounded so selfish - but what the hay!

 

[maddogkf]

I want to amend my last comment - any girl but Lil.

She has to be the 2nd most annoying person ever - behind John.

I can't stand Lil's sour puss frown all the time - she drives me up the wall.

 

[jf-08]

Lil is a freak.

Rupert was getting a little annoying.

Burton is playing this very well. But he better continue to win immunity because I think after Christa, he's next.

John is a turd and he will float to the final two, unless Darrah and T are with him until the final three.

Who's remaining?

T
Darrah
Burton
Christa
Sandra
Lil
Jon


Wow - it's anyone's game now.

 

[Jersey Girl]

I, too, thought it was weird that Sandra voted for Jon. If she had voted for Darrah and then Lil switched alliances, then Rupert would have been safe.

I think that Sandra person is sneaky. She got Rupert out at the immunity challenge and then voted for Jon. Watch out!
