We head on back to Tribal where Dawn pisses off Loco because she “contradicted herself” by saying she didn’t like seeing the other tribe eat when at the challenge she told them to eat as much as they wanted to and that she was glad they got to eat, but still didn’t like seeing them eat. This kid takes offense to everything that is said. It’s come to the point where you could tell him he won the million and he’d be pissed at you for the way you handed him the check or for how little applause he received from the guy in the red shirt, in the third row, fifth from the end. I’m tired of this guy. I wish Reality Steve let me curse in these blogs without putting asterisks because I’d have nothing but curse words for this hairless weasel vagina.
Whitney cries and Brandon doesn’t care that she cries, even though he says he does (talk about contradicting yourself, right?). I just find it funny that the Upolu tribe is so upset with how the Savaii tribe handled themselves in the beginning and then once Cochran flipped they became a different tribe. Well, duh, dummies, that’s kind of what happens when you lose power? Yet, here you all are, WITH the power, yet still acting like a-holes and trying to tell them you hate them because of how they acted the first day? I guess I am finding out just how boring it is when tribes stick together. I’ve long been the person who said he wanted to see a tribe go into merge and stay true to each other, but now that I’ve seen it happen, I hope it never happens again. Unless, of course, it’s a tribe I like. I think that is mostly the issue here. I really don’t like anybody on the Upolu tribe. At this point, I kind of hope Edna wins the $1 million, just so this season can be a complete joke like Russell’s first season was.
Jim got voted off and then gave us the title of the episode once he reached Redemption Island with his original alliance members. I knew they would never be the Final 3, but now it appears only one of the three are going to remain in the game after next week. I’m guessing it will be the final truel (would that be a three person duel??) and whoever wins will go back into the game and then be sent packing the very next day since they’re all Savaii. If I were Probst and CBS, I’d just walk over to Redemption and hand them an envelope, and inside a note telling them they’re not going to bother with a truel and just going to send them all home since they’ve already lost. Kind of like how Penn State handled the firing of Joe Paterno. Talk about all kinds of wrong, a man gave over 50 years of his life to the school and they fire him (mind you for something he didn’t really do, just something he fudged on mentioning to the correct people) by sending an envelope to him. I guess this proves smart people do dumb things, so maybe I’ve been wrong all along about these contestants.
Nah, I don’t think so.
I did get one question in my emails this week. I thought I’d share it.
Amy S. asked, “If you could take any reality TV contestant from any show and put them on Survivor, who would it be?”
It’s always hard when it comes to remembering ALL reality contestants (I’d do better with a list), but from memory, my favorite reality TV personality of all time is Teck from Real World Hawaii. I still kick myself every now and again for not buying his hat when it was up for auction after the season ended. He was definitely my favorite personality of anybody on any reality show. And, for all the people who were expecting me to go the sexist route, talking about girls in bikini’s or girls going skinny dipping or whatnot, suck on that! 🙂 No, but for real, if any of the top 5 I mentioned a few blogs ago showed their faces (and bodies) on Survivor, I’d own the DVD!
Until next time,
Scott

Too funny! Thanks for making me laugh every week. I am picturing Probst choking a muffin out of your mouth…
Fantastic. Very entertaining, even with the *’s. Thanks for brightening my Thursdays.
I may not be the toughest kid on this planet, but I do know that when it comes to food, even Mike Tyson isn’t getting that muffin out of my mouth!
Thanks for the comments!
Scott, loved the update.
I have watched how Survivor has evolved over the years to try to deal with the boredom of the ‘tribe alliance’ with the introduction of exile/redemption island. The producers have continually tweaked a series with tribe switch ups etc and while I think it’s optimistic to hope for this season is for them to add in a couple of additional immunity challenges forget a reward or two and then bring back not one but even two or three redemption island vote-offs back into the main tribe at a point where the numbers are even… it would make the end of this series very interesting to watch… as apposed to the predictable path that you write of above.
