So much for knowing whether the fans could beat the favorites. I think it's funny that even with people who KNOW THE GAME THE BEST - there are only two loose alliances - Chet/Kathy/Tracy and James/Parv/Amanda/Ozzy (and presumably Circie, but I wouldn't count on that if I were her). And being that Amanda looked healthy enough on the China reunion show, I don't think that last one holds up at all.

When will these people ever learn that perfoming well in the challenges doesn't necessarily mean that you should look like a "BIG MUSCULAR DUDE?

If anything, to do well in the challenges, the best traits to have are a combination of athleticism & agility (Ozzy, who excells in the swimming challenges) and also brains and mental agility (Yau Man, who excells in tasks that involved puzzle solving & accuracy).

I hope the 'weaker' Fans rally around and put out Joel next. That would "learn 'em good".

Best dialogue EVER -

Chet - I hit my head.
Hulk, I mean Joel - I don't care.
Chet - I know.

I've loved this season so far because they've been totally overpsyching the situation, so each vote has been BLINDSIDE/BLINDSIDE/BLINDSIDE. Well, except Jonny Fairplay, who just about blindsided his tribe the opposite way with asking to be kicked off.

I've liked Joel until this episode, but I thought he was a big jerk last night, and I was glad at the outcome - even though I think Chet is the most annoying person in Survivior history.

I think if Circie and Tracy form an alliance, they'll be unstoppable. Those are two women who not only understand the psychology of the game, but how to manipulate people into getting things to happen in their favor. Although if Chet makes it even close to the finals riding their wave, I'm going to be pissed. But, if you think about it, after the merge, Chet's going to be the person to keep around (much like Courtney last season). He's weak at challanges (and I doubt he's going to pull a Yau-Man), and he wouldn't get ONE jury vote. If Chet can make it to the merge, I think he's going in front of the Jury.

Don't count Ozzy out - incredible at challenges AND has the immunity idol. As long as he doesn't pull a James.

Jeff Probst was on Regis & Kelley just about the time this round of Survivor began. He said that there is going to be a mistake made by one of the players that will put James' bonehead move of not using the idol to shame. Will be interesting to see. He also mentioned that we would see more blindsiding than we have ever seen, and he sure seems to have hit that nail right on the head.

Don't forget his other alias - Troy (thanks to Ozzy)

I will agree, that was the best dialogue last night - I expected Chet to be the one that may have to leave the game (based on promos) - that was a little overhyped, wouldn't you say (although next week that could be the way it *may* play out for JP)

I can't wait to see the faces of the Airai tribe next week when they meet for the challenge and they see Chet

Chet is kinda creepy like "Buffalo Bill" in Silence of the Lambs, like in that scene where he's putting on lipstick, and then he does the "weiner tuck dance" where he's prancing around in the mirror, looking at himself and saying "I'd f**k me, I'd f**k me". So creepy and disturbing!!!

I love reading my daughter's updates just for the nicknames - guess who is Leif Garrett? Or Mr. Fabulous?

I think the fans really dropped the ball at last night's vote. Sure, I thought voting Chet off was the right move, but they should have stuck with Ozzy as their vote - AND LET HIM KNOW IT. Ami could have voted however in the end, but if he thought he was in any danger, he would have used the idol. Chet would still be gone, and so would the idol. It actually might have turned out better for Ozzy that way as well...he's a huge threat, and doubly so with the idol. Rule #1 of Survivor is to not be a threat. Look what happened to James last season...

By the way, quick recap of the elimination score:
Blindsides: 4
Injuries: 2
Pathetic Skinny Blonds who beg to leave: 2
Strategical Votes: 0

Leif Garrett is the ice-cream scooper and Mr. Fabulous is Chet, only because he is a pageant coach, not that he is fabulous.

Wow.. did anyone see this tonight. It was a great episode. Much of the season has been boring until tonight. Loved it.

SWTXBelle · #28 04-18-2008, 04:59 AM

I missed much of it due to having to try and get the boys to stay in bed - too much excitement with the movers here and all. BUT I did get to see Ozzie NOT play his immunity idol. I don't see how he couldn't figure out that as good as he is with challenges the other players would be gunning for him.

AlphaFrog · #29 04-18-2008, 05:30 AM

LOL LOL @ James - "I thought I was the dumbest Survivor ever".

When Jason stepped off the challenge, it reminded me of what DaffyKD had said:

He said that there is going to be a mistake made by one of the players that will put James' bonehead move of not using the idol to shame.

And I thought that was going to be it, especially when James made his comment.

Overall, I don't think that Jason made a huge mistake. Even if he did get voted out last night, I think it was worth the risk. If he would have stayed up there and won the challenge, he would have stayed on the chopping block. Yeah, a few donuts probably didn't appease everyone forever, but he may have bought himself more time than that one immunity win provided. Even if it was dumb luck. He's proved himself to be THE biggest challenge threat left - and I think that was true BEFORE Ozzy was voted out.

angelic1 · #30 04-18-2008, 08:40 AM

I at first he was so stupid - of course they were going to vote you out. This is a game about lieing, however I thought it was so great how the girls finally realized they could capitalize on this.

I thought at least if nothing else they could get Ozzie to us the idol this week and then have a chance to get him out another time.

Ozzy was just getting way too cocky, so that was his downfall there.

I just love it now bc its so unpredictable whats going to happen, bc up until now this season has been rather dull.
