[survivor]Survivor!

[misscharlotte]

I know... I don't really know what to make of this season. So many things out of place. I really hope the brains tribe isn't making the same mistakes that the other season did. And how in the world did they find another Shrin? UGH! Bet they will keep her too.

Then there's the little Asian guy on the beauty tribe. Even he says he doesn't understand why he's been placed there. Really, I don't think he fits on ANY of the three named tribes. He's definitely not too smart. I'll bet he will be another annoying person they will keep.

However, I did watch one of the links from their website. Seems like they have a couple of people who can fit on ALL three tribes. I wonder how that will turn out? They could crossover and back again during merges without a hitch. I think they will be the ones to keep an eye on.

I also think they were so dumb to vote off that guy. UGH! He was TRYING. Like someone said, you don't come on a game like this and stand there and pull the dumb blonde thing and say... "I can't do this" or "I can't do that". Anyone on a team with a member who gives up at a drop of a hat will definitely be burned by keeping a quitter in the ranks. Sure this guy made a couple of big mistakes, but he said he's learned and will give his all no matter if he thought he could do a task or not. YOu don't stand there and give up... especially this early in the game. What were these people thinking.

OH and I guess I made a huge mistake myself. I had a full meal in my tummy before the show began. By the end my tummy was feeling so sick. Bugs in ears? I kept itching my ears long before they showed the thing crawling. We kept saying she should have called for a medic right away. I've seen too many episodes of Monster's Inside of me that this really could have turned out bad for her. I still hope it didn't lay any eggs... but it looked like a larva anyway.

OK I think I just gave myself the shivers thinking about this again. EW!

[Duddahs]

Yuk! That whole ear thing was NASTY!

By the way, I believe the older Asian gentleman was put onto the beauty tribe to show the others that true beauty also comes from within, not from the outside only. What one see's in a person is so much more interesting and potentially beautiful to Duddahs than their external physical attributes. This is just Duddahs opinion but it sounds good to him!

Now please explain what the heck the Ice Cream shop owner is doing on the Brains tribe though. He seems to have a case of egotistical brain freeze!

[misscharlotte]

I can see what you are saying about the Asian guy... but from what we've seen so far his insides don't look to beautiful. Right away, he's proving to his team mates that he's not to be trusted. I get the feeling that he's all talk. But if that is what he led the people who put him on the show... then that might be why they put him there. He's supposed to be all about loving all life, then goes ballistic on a small grove of trees. Sure he reburied them, but my goodness, he's nuts. Still, I think it's good for Surivivor to put someone on the beauty tribe for that very reason you said. They should do it more often.

..

My first idea about the ice cream guy, sort of goes into play with the Asian dude. I might need to go look at the buff tribe to see if my theory fits. They might have chosen ONE person for each tribe that really would never fit in that category to see how the rest of the team mates react. Then on the flip side, if they even make it to a merge, could they easily flip and tell the tribe they might have actually fit in better with all the juicy details from the tribe they were placed?

I'm just guessing along with you.

Hmm.... If my theory still is right on, then perhaps the Asian guy is very smart indeed. So often the really brainy people might have book smarts, but then don't have a lick of common sense.

[Duddahs]

Looks like an early merge or as Duddahs put's it, the purge.

I don't even remember what previews were for next week.  But after last season's early merge, I would not put it past them to do it and often. That really sent monkey wrench's into everyone's plan merging then being split up then to merge again so on and so forth. That kept everyone's head in a whirl.

[Duddahs]

OK, no merge but thankfully the princess of darkness was sent packing. Now we need to see the back side of the prince of darkness disappearing into the distance.

[misscharlotte]

SO weird. For the longest, I really was hoping she would be the one to survive at least for quite into the show. Watching this week, I was still hoping the blonde girl would make it... but after her botched, TOTALLY CLUELESS loss of her idol.... Honestly, I hope that whole team goes one after the other. I can't stand any of them. UGH! Waste of time, lets get to the rest of the show.

[misscharlotte]

OH I'm fuming.... Those three morons! (and you know me, I am not one to call people names for much of any reason. UGH.) I really was proud of Alicia for FINALLY standing up for herself. She's not too bright, but tonight she stood her ground. She was right the whole time. You DON'T put down or belittle or talk down to a team mate when she's doing her best. And she's right, SHE didn't give up. I probably could go back to the rope challenge and get that last bit where the other girl was standing back not doing a thing to figure out the puzzle THAT GIRL gave up. Not the one who went home. UGH! What gets me, the one who DID stop trying to figure out the puzzle, COULD have tagged for one of the guys to come in and take her place, but nope. She didn't. I do laugh because all the while, SHE is siding with the guys. (until I found out that they are changing tribes next week) I was going to say she needs to think about it. IF the blond girl goes home, who will the guys vote off next???

*sighs* I'm pooped watching tonight's episode.

I felt bad for all three people who went down. For a minute there I was sure that one guy completely stopped breathing. Hope he gets another go at playing this game in the future.

....

And on that note, I think I might have said it before, I can't wait to see if they might ever have a Survivor series where ALL contestants were once carted off like tonight's. So many times it was something like a broken bone, or some other sort of injury that they could heal from... or they went home because of a family member being put in the hospital and they had to leave. They all should get another chance to play for the million.

[Duddahs]

OK, Duddahs is at complete odds with the way you saw things go down.

YEAH Alicia is GONE! Disliked her more than anyone else on the Island almost from day one. She did not stand up for herself, she was a lying, nasty, self centered idiot who does not possess the brain cells of an amoeba!

Bad news was that Duddahs was 100% for Caleb the Beast Mode Cowboy to win the who shebang! Duddahs is gutted, so sad but glad his health has returned in full. Hopefully he will be brought back next year!

[misscharlotte]

Wow. LOL. Here I saw the two guys as pure bullies. I've dealt with their like and learned not to do as she did and wait until the last moment to put them in their place. I can't wait until those two get their come uppance. LOL! Thought, she really didn't have any brains, to say the least.   That idol clue mess was just that... a mess. Which makes me wonder, since those two guys took it away from her, who gets to take it with them in case they get split up next week? I'll bet it won't be teamwork.

Caleb huh? I liked him alright. I know it's only been a few weeks in, but normally by now I have a favorite. I'm still scratching my head who I hope make the final three. I guess with the teams being reorganized, we will see more of what they are made of. HE would have made the final three from my point of view before he had to go.  

[misscharlotte]

I remember what I wanted to say as soon as the show went off the other night...

GOOD GRIEF!

[misscharlotte]

Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay!


Ok... all that jumping for joy has worn me out.

*sighs and sits down on the floor for a while.*

So glad that Tai has finally found his guts.

And I didn't realize it until I watched after the votes.... that one of the idols is now GONE TOO!

Now the game can really pick up.

[Duddahs]

Hmmm, seems we have been on different tribes this time Miss Charlotte. Duddahs was really supporting his game!

It's all been downhill since Beast Mode Cowboy was sent home on a medical call after single handedly winning a challenge for his team

We'll see what Tai is up to and if the others gang up on him or not.. I just can't tolerate the retired FBI agent. He does absolutely nothing other than take up space and food.

[misscharlotte]

I just see that retired FBI agent as a vote and nothing else. I hope Tia gets to stay a bit longer, however I think he will be voted off soon. He really is nice, but he's also a threat and not afraid of making big moves. He'll be gone soon, if not he will win this whole thing. I think I really have figured out who I HOPE will win.... the blue shirt girl. Fingers crossed for her.

[Duddahs]

One more week safe for Tai... Maybe?

[misscharlotte]

I saw HER leaving. That seemed to be a given.

[Duddahs]

WOW! That was a rough one last night. Someone made a big move that backfired on him....

Next week is going to be ugly...

[misscharlotte]

Honestly, even though I didn't care much for that guy, I think it was a bad move for them to get rid of him this early. They really could have used him. They had him in the right spot for helping them out in whatever move they might needed him for. Yep, he said he's up for a crazy move if anyone wanted to, but no go.

So, do you think Tia is out tonight? From the commercials, it seems like he's sweet talking his way back on the in's with some people.

I'm still hoping for blue shirt girl to win.

[Duddahs]

Duddahs was totally blind sided when Michelle won. Did not like her, did not think she played a good game. Duddahs felt Aubrey was the sure bet to win. Tai pooched the screwed during the final tribal. He should have not brought up the whole Scott thing so many times. It made him seem like that was the only great thing he did when Duddahs felt it was the biggest mistake of his game!

I almost agree with you to a tee. I was completely shocked when Michelle won. She didn't do anything great to deserve a single vote. I was rooting for Aubrey. I wish she had. Tai made more big moves than just Scott. I too was getting tired of hearing about it. I honestly thought he'd be gone early on in the season. I think their biggest mistake was voting off Jason? (tattoo guy.) Well, on second thought, I think he might have made Aubrey be the one gone instead of Michelle.

I can't remember what next season's preview was about. WAIT!!!!! OLD people versus the YOUNG. This will most definitely be interesting to say the least.
