Ok who is going to watch Survivor with me?

I was sad to see Liz go, I thought she was smart although maybe not a great strategic player.

It seems Russell changes with the wind - one day he's out for this one and then the next he's out for someone else. He may be playing the game better than some/most but I refuse to call him smart. I don't like him and I hope he goes now that they're merging.

Just watched the last two shows last night! Don't have much to ad, as everyone pretty much has it covered!

Russell is just too full of himself, I too hope he gets blindsided, besides...he doesn't need the money. DH likes the little blonde, Natalie? How the hell can someone look that good after 2 weeks of no shower, sleep has to be bad with rain, no make up, etc. etc. etc. I want to look like her in my next life!

I am still not sure who I am rooting for, maybe Shambo. But she better do something before those boys stab her in the back. Maybe the merge will help her.

Spar, the honeymoon was great, thank you. Hawaii is hot and humid, not good for hot flashes! But it was beautiful and I am glad I got to see it! We went to 3 islands.

Tonight is the merge................ Let's see how Russell does - will he get caught or continue to mess with people. 

I still don't have a favorite either, I find this season's group not very interesting. 

Casinogirl - You said exactly what I told my boss.  Is he not afraid of what the people he does business with will think of him and question their deals and agreements???? 

Yah Wahine, you made it! I won't be watching tonight. We always record so we can FF thru commercials. So I won't be checking in until after Friday sometime!

Merge on!

It's getting better................I will say I forgot about that guy Brett - he's managed to stay in the backround without much notice-I really don't know much about him, but when Jeff introduced him at tribal council I thought "Oh yeah that guy - where's he been".  Rocket Scientist has been stayed in the backround, but appears to be coming out and playing.  I think Eric was little to full of himself and lost sight - Russell is scrambling way too much which is always a receipe for disaster.........  And I do have to say Foa Foa was smart to spread out and start looking for cracks in Galu - it seems to be working divide and conquer.

I don't have a favorite yet - I too always seem to go for the underdog, but still can't seem to find that one person that has me rooting for them.

Eric was terribly full of himself and he paid the price.  So, no more hidden idols.  Did anyone even know that Eric had one?  I suspect it's ta ta to Russell next week and not a moment too soon in my estimation (unless he wins immunity).

Well most of you have already made all the "good" comments! So all I have to say is, I am going to love to see Russell scramble. Mr. All High and Mighty, who controls everyone and has the game in is pocket! Did anyone else notice....he is the smallest person on the show! You could see it when they were all sitting in tribal, he was next to Natalie.

Spar, thank you so much for the compliment. That was very sweet of you!

See ya all next week!

I'm really hoping for the boot.  He has stirred up sp much trouble,  he should go.  I can't wait to see what happens.

It is FINALLY getting interesting! Loved the episode tonight..what a blindside! And I am starting to see Russell as quite a crafty player.....before tonight I just plain didn't like him.

I have to admire Russell for what he did last night.  Unfortunately, Shambo is going to get blamed - they probably think she told Russell about the immunity idol and she didn't, but they won't believe her.  The funny thing is that Russell was really looking for the one that Eric left with and found the new one.

Jenn - I think the yoga guy is going to get some crap from his tribe also -he was the one who said "oh, he can't find it so soon."  One of them was concerned about just that scenario (I don't remember who it was - one of the women).  That was probably one of the greatest blindsides ever on Survivor.  I said to DH last night that it might come down to Laura vs Russell (although I think it will be three in the finale because I don't think they want an even jury panel).  JMHO 

What a great Survivor last night! I used to greatly dislike Russell, but must admit that I am starting to like and respect him as a player. Laura seems just plain mean and nasty. I want her to go.

The Yoga/fitness guy bothers me too. He sometimes gets a crazy look in his eyes.  

What did you think of Ben over on the jury bleachers? Shaking his fist at his old team? Hilarious. The Galu Tribe (with the exception of Shambo) all seem so cultish and cruel. Why are they so intent on getting rid of the remaining old Foa Foa members?

Good article here on the show last night.

I haven't watched all the Survivors, but this one is turning out to be one of the best (that I've seen).

Russell does seem to be an expert at finding hidden immunity idols...Next week should be exciting!!

I think Dave is the name of the yoga guy - and yes Laura does seem to have a mean streak.  The old Galu tribe reminds me the movie "Mean Girls" with the little high school clique going.............. Eric was mad - I'm thinking if a Foa Foa makes it to then end they will have Eric's vote.   This week should be really good...... What would be really fun is if the Idol were found by either Russell or one of the Foa Foa and they also won immunity.
