“Welcome to the bottom.” Indeed, Malcolm. Welcome to the bottom. After they get back from Tribal, and voting out “the gay” (as Corinne would so offensively refer to him as – and, of course, I’m referring to him that way because I barely learned his name throughout the season and am too lazy to look it up – I think it’s Michael, though), the StealthRUS alliance decides to go have a pow wow meeting, leaving Malcolm and Reddie (might as well join the two together now) behind to lick their last place wounds. I think a lot can be said about the difference between the alliances by the demeanor of their conferences. The three amigos were having a light-hearted conversation, realizing their place in the game and that they had nothing to lose at this point and that when the morning comes, their best bet is to find the idol. While they talked sensical, the StealthRUs meeting was filled with angst. They’re freaking out, even though they hold a major majority in the votes, at … Continue reading →

I was going to attempt to write this blog without taking notes while watching the show, but right after that opening scene, I realized that the notes were the only thing that truly made me pay attention to what was being said and what was going on. During the intro “song,” I tried to remember what it was Malcolm and the rest of the people had said and drew a COMPLETE blank, so I had to press pause and get the pen and paper out, otherwise the blog would have looked like this:

Malcolm said something.

Phillip is still crazy.

Such-and-such won Immunity.

Blank was voted out.

Until next week,

Although, truly, I believe that is basically what I write, just elongated sentences that last 3-4 pages on Steve’s blog pages.

Also, quick shout out to AT&T U-verse for having an On Demand section, because I totally deleted this from our DVR without even remembering that my wife perfectly told me before she went to sleep NOT to delete it so she could watch it … Continue reading →

I think that this season of Survivor has been the first season of either Big Brother or Survivor that I’ve actually liked while blogging for at the same time. That may be a slight overstatement, because I did like other seasons of Survivor that have been on the past few seasons, but I’m not sure I actually liked them WHILE they were on – it was more afterwards, I sat back and thought about it – and realized I liked it. This time around, I think I actually like this season. I’m not saying it’s the best season of Survivor I’ve ever watched, but it’s been far and away the best season of the past five, at the very least. Maybe 10. Just in my opinion. Yes, the Boston Rob vs. Russell season was pretty epic, but when you REALLY look at that season, it was actually pretty boring, with Rob just bossing everyone around and CBS all but showing the cards they dealt in guaranteeing Rob the $1 million prize as long as he … Continue reading →
