Ok who is going to watch Survivor with me?

junie

Can't believe that Russell bought into Sandra's trash talk about Coach and got him voted off!   Unless Russell has something working in his head that isn't obvious, that little twist might be what bites him in the butt.   And, what's up with JT???  Maybe I nissed something, but he finds the immunity idol, is unwrapping it and saying he's keeping it a secret--then immediately tells everyone he sees that he's found it!!   ?????   This week, it didn't look like anyone is playing a very "smart" game.  Right now, I'm irritated and think they ALL should be voted off!!!!  LOL!

So....why do I wish tomorrow was Thursday????

Mantra

Junie, He was going to keep it a secret but one of the girls walked up and caught him with it. So he had no option to disclose it to everyone considering he had said we are all going to look for the idol together. Then he decided to play the hero and tell everyone he found it for the team and which ever one of them needs it after the merge, will get to use it. I didn't think the idol is still in good after the merge, but I'm not sure.

On the preveiw, JT was saying something about giving the idol to Russell?

HUH?

Jeff did say that this could be the stupidest move ever in the history of survivor.

Jaybird627

Well, Jerri = Stupid. I take back ever saying that I liked her. (doh!)

And, Courtney saved over Coach??? What the hell were they thinking???

Sandra is devious. That's how she played/won before. She must be quite believable/persuasive in person.

I'm not liking Russell as a person but if he dupes everyone then he surely deserves to win.

Congrats to JT for making history - clearly the Dumbest move ever on Survivor...

JT wasn't alone in thinking it was a good idea.  Rupert thought it was brilliant.  These two guys I sort of sweet but I don't think they are the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree.

I realize the players didn't have a chance to see Russell at work before starting this series.  However, does the word "villain" mean anything to them?  Geez.  JT and his team thought that Russell would be trustworthy?

I just don't know what to think - guess we'll have to see what happens at the merger and whether or not heros and villians flip on each other or not.  I know JT and the other heros don't know how Russell played the game, but to give the villians the immunity necklace just seems stupid in every way possible. They are titled villians for a reason!  Courtney is not a favorite of mine, but I love her sharp tongue and quick wit and Sandra gets under my skin, but she is an excellent strategic player.  I really can't wait to see the reunion show when Russell finds out he was played by Sandra.  As for the Heros, I still like Colby.....Rupert is just not doing it for me this year and I'm warming up to Amanda again.

On to next week...............

ADK

Okay - just imagine being JT sitting at home last night and watching the show.  What would you be thinking as Russell reads the letter to Pavoti and the two of them are laughing about it?  Personally, I would crawl under my couch and never come out again.  

junie

Pink--thanks again for providing a quick link to read Jeff's latest blog.   It helped clear up a few questions!!    What a hoot this season is turning into--almost thinking it's a comedy show!  Poor JT--his written note to Russell will no doubt go down in history as stoopid, stoopid, stoopid.  Anybody remember how back in grade school, we folded our little notes into intricate packages that had to be opened a certain way??????     Too funny!!   Now, here's not funny, but sad--delaying a little road trip next week so can be home Thurs nite and not miss next show!!!!   Now, that is addiction!!!   Can't wait!!!!

goldie0827

UNBELIEVABLE! That pretty much sums it up. I guess I am rooting for Amanda or Jessica. Yes Russell is playing a good game, but I just don't like him!

I can't believe how the Villians react when they win a challenge, so immature...especially Courtney. And Parvarti is def. a maneater. The only woman on the Villians that I like is Danielle.

Poor JT.....hopefully by the time they have the reunion..he can laugh at his note.

I can't decide if this is the best Survivor or the WORST!

Ezscriiibe

I disagree that Russell is playing a good game. Some of the things that he wanted done were the result of other people in some way, either because they were incredibly stupid or because of someone else pulled a string or two (Pavarti, for one).

But even if I could agree that he has done some strategic things, he is not playing the single most important part of the game, the social part. That's the part where you do your dirty deeds, but you do them in such a way that the other players can respect your game and then vote for you. 

That's where the social part comes in. And that's where much as I personally dislike Pavarti, she "gets" it. Much as I disliked Sandra in her season, and in most of this season, SHE "gets" it, too.

So right now I'm pulling for Sandra for one reason only. So far she is the ONLY player who has figured Russell's weakness out. The others don't like him and many don't trust him, but they don't know his weakness buttons. Sandra homed in on them right away.

Even Pavarti isn't crazy about Russell, but she still made the stupid comment, "I trust him. . . " wow.

Again, this is why I feel that all the rest of the players, including the heroes team, are at a more crippling handicap in not having ever seen Russell play the game than he is.

If anyone, even one player, on the Heroes team had been able to watch Russell's season, that Hidden Immunity Idol would have NEVER found it's way onto that team.

pip57

Michele, I have to agree with you.  Pavarti and Sandra are actually playing a good game.  Russell is like putty in their hands.

What can one say about the Heroes?   

ananda8

As a group the Heroes are boring.  All of the really interesting players are Villains.

jenn3

Curious to see what happens tonight.............who will go home?

ananda8

I think there is something wrong with me that I get excited about a TV reality show.  But I can hardly wait until 7:00pm

jenn3

I'm not too big on all reality shows, but I LOVE Surivivor and Amazing Race!  And.....everyone knows, don't call me when Survivor is on - I don't answer the phone.  I look forward to it too.

ADK

Honestly!!!  We have a new stupidest move in the history of Survivor.

micheleboots

Wow what a show.....one to go down in the record books...

sheila888

I agree WOW!

The game is just starting.

sheila888

I agree Wow!. I never seen a survivor Episode like tonight and I have been watching it since day one.

I'm just curious if they will be able to vote Russel out.

Mantra

I'm not sure if anyone else noticed this. A second before Daniela (??) put on the immunity idol, they had a shot of her that showed a lot of rippling in her left breast. I found it a bit upsetting because I'm still at the TE stage and worry about having ripples in a noticable area. Not sure if she had reconstruction, augmentation or ??, but it was very noticeable in that scene.

Wonder if Parvati pissed off Russel tonight by having both idols and whether she'll be walking around with a target on her back?

Chancesmom

Mantra, I noticed and mentioned to my DH about that rippling.My DD saw it as well. Interesting.

JT...well, words escape me.LOL. Did they not all see Russell play in the last Survivor?.... good grief. I live to see him get his though. Parv walking around with both idols was very funny. Russell will give her grief over that, I'm sure!

 I imagine the Hero's will bring Sandra on next week. 

I hope anyone wins but Russell, he was such a poor loser on the last one. I don't like sore losers.

kittycat

Looks like Pavarti and Russell are going to fight on the next episode.  Good tribal council!  JT goes out with his own immunity idol!  What a dork!

Jaybird627

OMG! I just watched last week's and last night's shows together. I think that Parvati's words about Russell stabbing JT's heart and then her devouring it will go down in show history. The "king" and "queen" things sure does seem to be true. For now.

I can't figure out how Amanda makes it so far. Maybe because she is so 'nice'? She sure isn't a good player. She seems so wichy-washy and she always has that look of worry on her face!

Chancesmom, none of the other players saw Russell play before so they don't know how he plays. I'm not sure how much they knew about him, if anything, before this season started.

Prettyinpink, I agree w/you about Parvati and Sandra. They are smart players without seeming so to their fellow survivors.

This show always gets better at/after the merge!

jenn3

What a show........probably one of my favorites so far.  I did not see Parvati playing both idols the way that she did - great move.  Sorry to see JT go, I really like him, but giving away the idol was a huge mistake that came back to haunt him.  Curious to see how Russell deals with it next week - he likes control and Parvati doing what she did was clearing letting Russell know she had control.

They were filming this show, before the other show aired so the people that have not played with Russell haven't had a chance to see him play - that is until this game.

I saw the rippling too.....very quick glance, hopefully it's from prior surgery and not related to BC.

ananda8

I noticed it, too.  Could the rippling be from implants for competic purposes followed by significant weight loss?   

Chancesmom

Russell, has gone and gotten his little self in trouble with the law! LOL

One of the stars on "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" was arrested in Louisiana early this morning after cops say he attacked somebody at a street festival. 

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Russell Hantz -- the runner-up from "Survivor: Samoa" -- was partying at the Festival International de Louisiane, when he allegedly "shoved" somebody to the pavement. 

Cops say Hantz was immediately arrested by Lafayette City Police -- and taken to a nearby jail. 

Hantz was eventually released. 

But get this, Hantz is still in contention to win "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" -- which is airing now on CBS ... and yes, he's one of the "villains."

Thought he'd outsmart them I guesssss.

If anyone watches the Celebrity Apprentice { I do } or is a Bret Michaels fan.... He's not in too good of shape. It's a shame, he seems like such a nice guy.
