[Brutul Tarew Marr]

yeah they didn't show much. Ami couldn't figure out the clues and Kathy already knew them all and didn't want to go back and forth again so she played dumb too and then it started raining and Ami probably gave it up too.

That's pretty much what always happens with Exile Island. They show it the first time, then show only small snippets of it until someone finds the idol (which looks to be next week), then barely show anything from it at all.

It's one of the reasons I've never been overly wild about Exile Island. Rarely does anything interesting ever happen on it.

They shoulda voted off Ciri and kept Yao. Yao was one of my favorites, it sucks that he is gone.

LOST is on in 2 minutes so I'll write more later but tonight's episode was awesome. Ozzy completely owned. He owned the reward challenge with his head and his uber swimming skillz. Then he found the hidden idol AND then made a fake idol which I am sure will equal pure comedy in one of the next episodes where some sap will think they found the idol. Then they will try to play it like the blonde chick last season. I can't wait for that. Then the favs DOMINATED the fans in the immunity challenge. The fans looked terrible and it looks like it might be a sweep from here on out. On top of that the fans voted off mike who was strong and kept Chet who absolutely sucks at challenges, so next week there are going to be fireworks in their tribe. I can't wait.



OH SHIT!!!!! I just saw the preview NEXT WEEK they switch tribes and mix that should be interesting. Anyways i'll comment more later....IT'S TIME FOR LOST BABY!!!! 2 great hrs of TV back to back.

My god, the Fans tribe is perhaps one of the most stupid and retarded tribes in the history of Survivor.

I feel sorry for the Favorites as they have to mix with them next week.

[Soygen]

Yeah, the fans are idiots, no doubt.

[Lowk]

Holy fuck i wish the fans weren't a component to this show.

This episode was pretty damn entertaining. First off James was pretty funny when he was describing the FANS old camp: "These guys are a bunch of dingbats I am amazed that they are still alive." Basically the two tribes merged and everyone is mixed now. Chet is SOMEHOW still in the game even though he is one of the worst players in Survivor history. Then in BOTH challenges he manages to fuck them both up and once again rather then vote Chet off they vote off the strongest guy. The look on Eric's face the last two tribal challenges when Chet doesn't get voted off was so priceless. HOW IS CHET STILL IN THIS GAME?!?!?! This guy blows. Ozzie called Chet "A wet rag or a ball of goo" ROFL and yet Ozzie chose to vote off Joel the strongest guy. Ozzie used to be a smart player but this will bite him in the ass. I remember in Ozzies season they threw a challence to vote off the emo fat guy cause he was weak and tribal cancer, well Ozzy meet Chet the worst player ever. The old Ozzie would have voted him off instead you just made a fatal error. The next few challenges Ozzie will see how big a mistake he made. Atleast he has an idol in his back pocket and Amanda as an ally. BTW Amanda is firggin hot and she caught a 50 LB shark.

Next week I expect Jonathon Pender to bow out. THERE IS NO WAY he can stay. He has a crazy deep cut in his leg and being out there in that dirt and mud his cut will get infected and he will get gangrene or something. I don't think he will be able to stay out there not with that deep cut. Meanwhile it looks like Amy will be the first smart Favorite and will form an alliance with some of the Fans. She really had no allies with the Favorites so that is such a smart move for her. Either way next week I hope to see Chet or Cire go. Cire plain gets on my nerves. Jonathon I hope can stay cause some of the stuff he says is entertaining and pure comedy but that gash in his leg looked really bad.

[Zimphultron]

I love Cirie. She was the mastermind on the Favorites tribe, and she's the mastermind on this one. Her grin gets me every time after someone is sent home. Yes, I can't stand Chet. I feel bad for him, but he's freaking useless. That doesn't mean that Ozzie is unable to pull that entire team in any physical competition, though.

Joel bullied his way to the top of the Favorites tribe. He saw Mike as the clever-type, and as a huge threat to himself down the line. Mike stood his ground, and Joel had to tear him off. That's why it was so great to see the same thing happen to Joel. I just wish Cirie would have squatted down and pissed on his seat afterwards; however, the grin was enough.

Disclaimer: Due to the tribe shift, I don't really like one more than the other. Merge needs to hurry!

[Regime]

Even though James is a dummy for not using those idols last season, he is still my favorite hands down.

I cannot stand Cirie but she is playing the game well. Joel was an arrogant bastard. Man this season sucks worse than China.

The challenges are just getting more dumb. "Flag football in a maze lol11!!"

We need some firehosing and eggthrowing.

[Soygen]

I can't believe Ozzie told his alliance that he has the idol. Amanda's hot ass has him all fucked up.

Chet getting dragged around in the challenge was pure comedy.

[Sean]

God, I can't fucking stand that stupid bitch Cirie. She needs to go like yesterday. And I can't believe they didn't vote off Chet, what fucking dumbasses.

[Ejukated]

I've been pulling for Cirie to go the entire time, but I finally had to admit she is playing the game well after last night. Surprisingly she is very keen to everything that goes on and what it means to her position in the game. The fact that she is physically weak has helped her a lot considering she is one of the least trustworthy people on the island, and a non-stop schemer. I'm surprised no one else took notice in the first few episodes when she was arguing with Jonathan and calling him untrustworthy when she was clearly the first person to backstab someone and also being an annoying bitch on top of that. However, she will probably go far now that people will keep her around for her vote and the perception that she wont be a threat later.

That being said, overall people are playing the worst game in survivor history. Overstrategizing and alliance forming started way to early which has led to strong people going home instead of weak ones. Having the "numbers" inside your own tribe doesnt mean shit when you merge and the other team has the numbers over your divided team. Not only does this piss me off, but it makes for bad tv (except for Chet getting dragged, which I was hoping for when I saw him paired w/ Joel).

I've also decided that I'm going to apply for the next survivor when ever it applications go up. If I made it I would try and play the game like Ethan from season 3 (Africa). Lay low, not step on anyones toes for as long as possible. I wouldnt mind being the 4th/5th guy in a strong alliance, because if said alliance makes it down to the final 5/6 you actually have a lot of swaying power, especially if you win an immunity. You also probably get some bonus points from the Jury for cracking the tight group and avoiding a lot of the hate (hopefully it goes to the more vocal "leader") from the Jury members for being ousted.

Edit: Has anyone here tried applying before?

This expresses everything.
