whats the deal with this i think to myself this is my all time favorite reality show and yet i find myself looking more forward to Sundays airing of the amazing race...

I think i just do not care much for any of the contestants on this season..

The title "One World" was an awesome title then they threw in battle of the sexes and yet it hasn't really been any sort of battle girls whining and crying then pulling in trusting dudes then voting them off posh...what kind of shit is that?

they were all together then separated for what 2 weeks what is that like 4 days survivor time????

I watched last night just as i did last week, Parkers recaps keep me posted for some reason my mind just isn't catching anything about this season and so i think i watch however do not really pay any attention at all...

idk perhaps it will get better????

ive been saying that from the start of this season...

maybe this season im just experiencing a bit of survivor "death" all puns intended

I totally feel you on this, G - I have to keep rewinding sections of the show this season because my mind drifts off to something else and I miss entire portions of the show.

Take last night - I actually thought that was a pretty good episode and yet I am struggling to remember what the hell it was about! lol

Let's see ..... they had another of their DIY reward challenges - which I think is weird. Every time they have one of those, I think to myself, what, did Probst call in sick? Dude only has to work 39 days twice a year and he couldnt be bothered to come to this reward challenge? Maybe he's as bored with this season as we are!

Anyway, they split themselves up into 2 groups, did some kind of rope tossing game for points and one of the teams won and went on a BBQ - it was uninspired and nothing really happened except Jay and Troy got together to decide that this tribal, a woman (or girl, since that's how they all refer to the women - girls - like their all 12 years old or something) just *had* to go or that would be proof that their alliance was a sham and it was women vs. men again.

Conversely, Kim, et.al. were scheming that who ever didnt win individual immunity (Troy or Jay) would be voted off next because they are the biggest threat in challenges, then they can worry about Lief and Tarzan.

The immunity challenge was that one where they stand under a big bucket of colored water with a rope tied to one hand while they stand barefoot on a narrow piece of wood - if they step or fall off of the wood or drop their arm, they are doused with the water and are out.

The instant Jeff said they were starting, Tarzan stepped off of his piece of wood and went to sit down. Then Jeff started coming out with food to tempt people to sit down and before anyone could blink, Sab stepped down for some cookies. Eventually, most everyone stepped down for one food item or another - including Jay, who thought he was safe - leaving Troy, Chelsea, and Lief.

Troy lost his balance and fell (I thought he was going to pass out, he just started weaving), leaving Chelsea and Lief. Chelsea said she could do this all day and told Lief that if he stepped down it would make him less of a threat. Then when Jeff brought out a tray with cheeseburgers, beer, and chips, Lief asked Chelsea if she was for real - she said yes, so he stepped down and Chelsea won.

Usually a challenge like that goes all damn day, but this one lasted like an hour - so you see what we mean by this season being ... bleh.

Anyway, the women decided Troy may have a hidden immunity idol so they wanted to split the votes between him and Jay. Then Troy told Jay he was going to play his HI idol because he got the feeling the women were playing them. Jay disagreed and told the women what Troy told him, letting Kim know Troy was voting for her.

At tribal, nothing exciting happened - pretty much everyone thought they were safe, there was no drama - hell, I dont even remember what they talked about and it was just a few hours ago! lol

Anyway, a couple of people voted for Troy - he played his idol and voted for Kim and 2 of the men voted for Alicia, but in the end Jay was voted off - and he was blindsided and looked a little butthurt, but in his parting speech congratulated the "girls" on getting him.

The preview for next week makes it look like Troy is trying to get the few remaining men to band together to try to vote off a woman .....

I will goof around on the computer, or read while the show is on, always have. I find it hard to watch anything steady without something else to do. I should have learned to knit, at least Iwould have been productive while wasting time! There just arent the characters this season. no Russels, Ruperts, Coach etc......unless you count that weird guy standing around in a speedo, claiming there is no poop on it, or the little person who sits and sleeps in that big box!!! Not a single person stands out.

The women are running the game, but that wont last, it never does. One of them will make a deal with one of the men, or they will start infighting, they always do, then their all female alliance will fall apart, like it always does. I HOPE they prove me wrong, but they never do.

I still love the show, willwatch the show, but have been going to Youtube and watching the after show. It shows each jury members arrival at the Ponderosa. They could do a half hour show of that, its pretty good!

thanks! Im gonna check it out.

Parker 04-15-2012 01:39 AM

Here you go - I think each of these has a part 2, but this is at least a taste. :winky:

Jonas


Mike


Jay
(I love his sour grapes: "That's what happens when you trust women")



I also thought it was interesting that Jonas and Mike both ate THEN showered, but Jay showered first - I think I'd EAT first. lol

I'd like to know what was up with that skull on the beach. And I think real plastic surgeons don't drive Jeeps, they drive Ferraris or Lamborghinis.

gaea 04-19-2012 04:53 PM

Well

Ill be damned

The women are doing it....at least up through last night.

Perhaps he is a humbled surgeon?

I wondered about the skull too - maybe just a prop? It was cool though.

And yeah - they also dont worry about needing $500 to fix their shocks. I think he'sa bullshitter bc in an earlier episode, he alluded to being an OR nurse - which was why I didnt believe him when h said he was a plastic surgeon.

So far, so good - too bad Christina didnt play ball to get the immunity challenge clue so they could have been able to knock out Troy - but maybe next week.

I just dont get her - and I fully expect her to jump ship before they get down to 6 women.

gaea 04-25-2012 08:58 PM

Well based on tonight's show I'm just gonna eat my words with a salad fork...ill be damned as i sit here stunned

not my favorite group of women however they have done what they have set out to do...

mmmm mmmm mmmmm

*eyes wide open*

gaea 05-09-2012 08:57 PM

wow wow wow

has this group of women whom i didn't particularly like at the beginning changed my mind ....

ha

i love it, im impressed and further more think well hot damn they went and did it ...

now what hee hee never underestimate the power of a group of women...

Parker 05-10-2012 12:43 AM

I know - I kept thinking if they dont vote out Tarzan tonight, I will hope for him to win because it is just too stupid to wait to vote him out.

Also - I hope I dont jinx it - Kim was my second choice for the winner from day one - right behind the woman who broke her wrist. :winky:

i hope you don jinx it either

im rooting for kim as well however the one i root for never ever wins lol

Wolfsong 05-10-2012 08:36 AM

I am in particular amused at how each of these women gushed about how Kim could look at you with "those blue eyes and make you believe anything she says" and none of them as of yet has figured out that they should have blind-sided her out of there. I guess they think that charm is aimed at everyone but them

Alicia is a true biotch. You know usually there is a person or two that I really hope wins (Like in this seasons Amazing Race I was PRAYING those guys from Kentucky would win) but in this season of Survivor I have nobody that I really care about one way or the other. I was glad that Colton left he was just mean for the sake of being mean.

That's how it is all the time - in games like this and in life - everyone always believes the deceiver is lying to everyone *but* them.

The bad thing about being the kind of player Kim is being is that once you vote out all of those people you have been playing and who believed everything you said, it's hard to get their jury votes to win the money at the end.

Good sportsmanship would dictate that she go to the end with Sab and Chelsea - but I dont think she would win against them - she would have to go with Christina and Alicia to have a chance at winning.

I somewhat agree with you but you know, if that were completely true than people like Richard Hatch would never win.

That's true - of course, we've come a long way since the naked gay man and an island full of snakes and rats lol. Side note: I just saw him on a commercial about lawyers offering to help with IRS troubles and he said something about being in jail for 4yrs isnt fun - call these guys for help. I lol'ed.

Seriously though, I'm not saying it will happen like that or that it always happens like that - I have seen similar situations where the deceiving person who controlled everything was sincerely not liked by the jury of people they lied to and voted out, but they still won because the jury could recognize that while they werent a very nice person, they played the game really well.

An example off of the top of my head: a lot of people disliked Boston Rob this last time, but they also recognized he played an almost flawless game, even though he hand a hand in blind-siding almost all of them - he still won ... FINALLY. :winky:
