Last week Probst mentioned Jeff's ouster by tribal vote was perhaps the biggest blown opportunity of the game. Nothing like putting doubt and fear into the minds of those who thought they did the right thing.

Carter. Must remember the name. Keep thinking it's Connor. Resembles a young Alexis Kanner.

Somehow I don't think RC will make it as far as she thinks she will. I get the impression that she could really rub people the wrong way.

Bumping for tonight's show...

FINALLY found my pre-show Survivor: Philippines top four guesses (based on CBS Bios online). Only one left is Malcolm, chosen because he seemed like a younger Penner.

Angie, RC, and Jeff are gone. I'd chosen Angie since people from Utah tend to do well; RC because she's smart; Jeff because he didn't need the money.

I dislike Abi more every week.

I also dislike Abi more every week. And I like Lisa I liked Lisa when she was Blair. I still like Lisa. She makes mistakes and probably won't win, but she seems good hearted.

Co-sign on disliking Abi more every week. And I didn't mind seeing Artid leave.

Jeff Kent apparantly is still a jerk after being fed at Ponderosa.

And I'm really enjoying watching Lisa. She's doing much better than I thought she would -- unlike Abi and some others, she actually understands the game -- and she's not evil.

Abi is a witch, but it seems that it's a requirement that Survivor has at least one per season.

I'm afraid to start pulling for Lisa, because that has been the kiss of death lately.

Aw, Penner has them all beat at this point. It felt abit like watching the 1987 movie House Of Games last Wednesday.

Yeah, but Penner does have a touch of evil.

I think it's more that I expected Penner to be good. We've seen him on Survivor before. Blair Warner being good comes as more of a surprise.

BTW, Lisa announced a few days ago that she has West Nile Virus.

BUMPING because despite the coming holiday, it's on tonight...

Abi's social skills have nothing to do with cultural differences. Non verbal cues don't have a language barrier.

Funny enough, from her bio:
SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Parvati – she is as charming as I am.
Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I bring social skills and team work. I am a motivator. I will also bring a very positive energy.
Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I will bring my “A” game! I am strategic, I am athletic and I have an ability to persuade situations to my favor.

I guess that's why she has sat out on so many challenges.

[Cheerio]

This is a small thing, but Penner gets the YELLOW instruments in most challenges. Even though Jeff Probst states it's a blind draw for spots in each challenge, does CBS allow Penner the YELLOW lane because he has visual dysfunction? And does anyone remember if Penner got YELLOW challenge lanes in his other seasons on Survivor?

[AGDee]

That was awfully close. It seems we might be getting to the point where they decide to vote out the strong players and keep the ones that won't get jury votes. That always makes me sad.

i hope not. Clearly it would have been Abi if she hadn't town immunity. Malcolm and Denise are both strong, and they seem intent on going to the end together. I didn't think Penner would make it past the merge, frankly.

[DaffyKD]

Abi sure showed her maturity when she stuck her tongue out at Denise. That girl is wacko.
