Back at the Savaii tribe, we are introduced to Semhar, who is making it apparent she thinks her cleavage is going to keep her in the game. Not that it’s bad cleavage, I’m just saying of all the options of what to wear to Survivor, a girl says a lot when she shows up wearing a shirt where each of her boobs are just hanging out for the enjoyment of the men (and maybe some women). Ozzy is immediately driven to her and her “living up to the challenge” with her Spoken Word reading.
Smartly, just like any man would think, Ozzy wants to go swimming. With the girls he has on his tribe, I’d want to go swimming in my underwear, too. You have to love Survivor and how it always ends up as women just walking around in their underwear. Again, I’m not complaining, just pointing out the fact that all men are perverts and this is good, quality television!!
At the Upolu beach, it’s apparent that Sophie is REALLY short! Coach isn’t tall and she was standing next to him and it looked like she was standing in a ditch and Coach was on top of an ant hill or something. While everyone is embarking on fixing up the camp, Christine thinks to go look for the Idol (who do you think you are, Russell?) and the tribe completely catches her on it. Not a smart move when everyone is still getting acquainted and game play hasn’t really started yet. At least wait until the first person has taken a dump in the woods. Get comfortable a little.
Back at the Community Pool at the Savaii tribe, we learn that Jim is a Medical Marijuana Dispenser. Hahaha, I sense a lot of goodness coming from him this season. Maybe he brought some of his supply along with him. And, we also learn that Mark, an ex-NYPD detective has “feathers floating around him” and is as gay as can be. He said it, not me. I have no problem with gay people, I will just get that across. I actually liked the vibe I got from Mark. Although, the whole “daddy bear” thing is a little creepy. I’m going to call him Care Bear. In a good way, I promise.
Dawn is the first to voice her concern about the lackadaisical first day coming to an end and the tribe not having shelter set up. She doesn’t feel as if “Bob Marley” is a good leader. Funny that she calls Ozzy “Bob Marley” when a weed smoker like Jim is on the tribe! And, yes, I know just because he owns medical marijuana joints doesn’t mean he smokes, but honestly do you believe any of the people who own those shops don’t smoke?
At Upolu, we learn Russell’s nephews name is Brandon. And, he’s different than Russell. He loves God now after struggling trying to be like Russell back in high school. Then he goes off on some rant about how he’s unnerved by Mikayla flaunting herself around camp, with her cleavage showing and her sticking her butt in the air with her short shorts on. Listen, Brandon, shut your mouth. Let the woman let her boobs and legs breathe a little. There is nothing wrong with that. It’s hot out there and she needs to keep cool. Just enjoy the scenery. God created her that way, so you being upset about how she looks is going against God. I think you need to say 10 Hail Mary’s and 7 Our Father’s to make up for that. Chop chop, Loco.
Really enjoyed your Big Brother blog even though it was a season of boring hell, and am glad to see you will be recapping Survivor. The new Survivor season might be just good enough to wash the horrible taste of Big Brother out of my mouth. And, unlike BB, let’s hope they don’t vote out the Hotties at the BEGINNING of the season. BTW, you must still have BB on the brain because I noticed you used the term “evicted” when speaking of ousting someone, lol.
Love you from BB. This is the first season of Survivor I’ve watched. I wish you had commented on when Cochran (I think it was him) and a female were trying to open the coconut and Cochran said “I think it’s coming … I see some white stuff.” And then later during the tribal meeting he said “you don’t even have to rub me for me to come out” or something like that. I know those were easy ones and some people say it’s gross but I find it amusing when people like him don’t know how the things they say can be misconstrued.
hey there Scott, this is the first post I’ve had the pleasure of reading from you since I do not follow BB at all. I was wondering if you are going to be giving us some ‘spoilers’ much like Steve does?
I am going to admit that this will be my worst recap. I had to do this and the big brother finale at the same time, so I was flustered. As for missing things, I will blame that on it being the first episode and already having so much information to cover, I simply couldn’t get it all in. And, I noticed I used the term evicted when I reread it! Whoops.
As for spoilers, I will do my best to try and figure some out, but I just don’t see it happening. The finale is taped live so there is no way I can tell you the winner but maybe I can scrounge something up.
I am SO happy to see a Survivor recap on this site. I’ve watched since the very beginning and excited about reading this recap every week (one more thing to keep me entertained while at work). I think this cast is pretty interesting and one of the better first episodes this show has done. Makes me excited for the season. What do you think about the Redemption Island twist… I hope it works better than last season.
Finally… I hope that you don’t post any spoilers… This is one show I don’t want to know what happens, I love the suspense and excitment each episode.
Keep up the good work!
Chances are I won’t even come close to finding any spoilers so don’t worry.
As for Redemption Island, I like the idea but think they shouldn’t wait so long to have the person reenter.
Scott, thanks for the recap. I am so happy for a survivor recap. I totally love Jeff also. I have not watched Ozzy on suvivor and was pleasantly surprised at how Hot he is. Eye candy is always good. I thought Ozzy would vote out cochrane was glad to see he voted for Semhar. Fans of reality tv usually do a good job at predicting who will win survivor, if your looking for info. Lastly you did’nt make laugh, whats up with that??? lol
Good Job on the Recap.
I have been wondering this for awhile about Survivor maybe other people are in the know..
It’s about the clothes they wear. If they are chosing the clothes they are going to wear for the show (Scott mentioned the girl in the suit and the layering aspect) why wouldn’t they choose bathing suits/active wear? It seems like they are always wearing normal bras and underwear and not bathing suits which I would think would be more comfortable. Also, cargo pants or somethng like that would be better than jeans and suit pants I would think. Maybe they surprise them and say you have to wear that! no time to change before!
I’m not sure who I like on this new season yet. I didn’t get a great vibe from anyone yet….
I wish they would have brought back Philip. He was hilarious to watch!!
Hi Scott: Funniest part of the blog:
“Stacey the mortician completely botches her search when she searches inside a tree where the clue is and doesn’t find it. Well, we all weren’t born to be winners, Stacey, don’t worry about it. Thanks for playing. Maybe instead of using that stick, you should try and touch something here and there. You’re used to touching DEAD PEOPLE’S FACES and you’re telling me that you didn’t want to stick your hand in that tree to look for something that might get you further in the game where you could win $1 million.”
Ha! Good job!
