SURVIVOR – 10/13/11

October 13th, 2011 | 3 Comments | Posted in Survivor 23 - South Pacific

Over at Savaii camp, The Coch decides he wants to go fishing so that he’s not viewed as one of the girls hanging around camp while the men go fishing. But, even so, all he did was sit in the boat while Ozzy went and caught fish. That’s not that hard to do, Harvard. You’re still one of the girls. Now, you’re just hanging out in the boat with Tag instead of at camp with the ladies doing their cuticles.

Had Stacey not made the crack about Chuck E The Cheese, Coch’s comment about Ozzy being “the middle aged Ozzy” and calling him a “lazy ass” would have been the comment of the night. Coch got him on that one. Cochran makes a good point about how it does seem that Ozzy will have a few moments of glory and go fishing each day, but other than that, he just lies around with Elyse all day at camp. But, in Ozzy’s defense, I would be doing the same thing if Elyse was willing to lie around with me in a hammock while eating the fish I caught earlier that day. It’s not like there is that much to be doing around camp every single day.

We head on over to the Immunity Challenge where someone needed to tell Loco that he shouldn’t tuck t-shirts into his jeans. I get it that maybe your pants are starting to get big on you, but you already have the belt to help with that. Don’t tuck a t-shirt into your jeans. Ever. I’m not saying this as some sort of fashion guru, I’m just telling you that it looks stupid and ridiculous.

Anyways, that challenge was nasty. I could have done without the “basket cam” shots of everyone spitting the food into the basket. All that spit and mouth juice coming right at my face was NOT what I had in mind for my Wednesday night. I’m just glad I finished my dinner before I watched the episode.

One question I have for the people over at CBS is why not get yourselves a bigger scale?!? Why have a scale that only goes up to 10 pounds when it’s apparent they are going to go over that threshold? You have a 50 lb piece of meat on a stick and only bring out a 10 lb scale and make Probst hold onto it as it passes the 10 lb mark and 20 lb mark?!? Budget cuts are that deep, huh?!?

Anyways, Upolu wins by 2 ounces and it was at this point that I knew the list I had sent to everyone was wrong. It was also at this point that I started to worry I was going to lose my girl. My eye candy. My main reason for watching. No, just kidding on that last one. Sorta. The pretty ones always go too soon in Survivor. It’s part of the tradition, so why not keep it going this season?

As we head back from the competition to the Savaii camp, how ironic is it that The Coch brings up the oral herpes issue at hand. He does have a point that if anyone was having a breakout at the time of the competition, they were all most likely going to be infected by it. But, those chances were probably slim. I just found it hilarious that he brought it up around the campfire. Let me step in for Prince Albert here and give you a dating tip, Coch. Lesson #1: Do NOT talk about oral herpes in front of attractive girls. Even if you don’t have a chance in hell of dating them, you pretty much just became a disease to them that they would never even consider giving a pity-hug to! You just don’t do it. And, you don’t bring up a stat like 99.9999% of people having some form of herpes. That would include you. I feel these are things that should be on the entrance exams to Harvard.

After the herpes fiasco, Jim talks to Tag about getting Elyse out and Tag goes and tells Rachel…er, I mean Whitney, about it. Tag’s main issue is that he worries that Ozzy won’t trust them if they do vote her out. Good one, genius. Would you trust someone who was supposedly in your alliance after they went against the plan and voted out your main confidant?!? Jesus, I feel like these types of questions should be on the entrance exams to get on Survivor. Please stop putting morons on this show, I really do want to see a season where all contestants have common sense and to see how the season goes. If it goes exactly like the rest of them do, then I’ll be convinced that it’s the pressure of the show that does this to them, but for now I have to be convinced that dumb people allow other dumb people to win shows like this by doing dumb things.

  1. Haha, Keith DOES look like Tag. Maybe they can in a future episode have him wear a red sweater and we can think he’s the father of Rachel’s baby 🙂

    I don’t understand why they voted Elyse out. Fine if they wanted to split up Ozzy/Elyse, but why not just get rid of Ozzy? He wouldn’t have known it would be him, and left with the idol. He’s a much stronger player and more convincing than Elyse!

    Again, they are a stupid tribe because Ozzy was right, you are never going to win comps if you keep getting rid of anyone who can help…I hate these people. It’s kinda like other times in the past, the tribe that doesn’t have the numbers at times can still end up in the final 3. That makes no sense to me. Whatever tribe has the numbers going into the merge should automatically be the final 5 or whatever it is. Why do you vote off people from your original tribe if you don’t like them? I would hang out with people I HATED for 39 days if it meant I have a chance to win a million dollars!!!

  2. There are two spoiler lists out there right now… one is 100% right through last night and is posted on Reality TV Spoilers.net. They had the correct boot list for Heroes v. Villains and Samoa as well.

  3. There have been very few, if any, times that I have not agreed with something that was written on this site. But this is the one time that I need to point out something that is not acurate. In reference to Coach praying for the idol while he already had it- Yes, it is in bad taste to do that- however, if you watch and listen closely Coach prays for favor and blessing and Brandon is the actual person that is praying that they find the idol. Granted, a lot was edited- so he may have actually said it, but he did not on the aired version.
