The episode starts off with Skupin giving us the same old, same old, “I’m relieved” routine. He’s relieved to still be around, even though he didn’t get one vote to leave. He was pleased to see that the votes were split between Jeff and Pete, because both of them had been loud-mouthed enthusiasts about getting out the returning players. Even with how loud the people are being about that aspect, they still aren’t living up to it, seeing as how both Penner and Skupin are still around. And, I’m sure if Russell didn’t suck it up for his tribe, he might even still be around, as well.

Oh, and I guess we got our answer as to why Penner voted for Abi. He was pissed! Uh, ok. Pissed about what? That there was a Plan B? I think I’m still lost as to why he voted for her. Sure, he justifies it by saying that even if he had voted for Pete, it would have only been a tie, but still, why would you vote … Continue reading →

I will agree with some people on Twitter and say that this was a great episode of Survivor. However, for some reason, I still can’t find myself getting excited for it like I do with scripted shows. I don’t look at Survivor as a reality show, because we typically relate reality shows with ridiculousness and the outrageous. So, it’s hard to see Survivor in that same mold. So, I think that is why I can still agree that this season has been such a standout from the past few, but still not get me overly excited for each Wednesday. I still think they are diluting the water too much by having two seasons each year. They should settle it down a bit. But, the show still gets killer ratings, so I don’t see them taking my advice one bit.

Anyway, the episode starts off with Penner back at camp, not understanding why his alliance didn’t move forward with their plan to vote out Pete. We learn something we didn’t know last week, and that Penner … Continue reading →

Happy Halloween! Or, happy day after Halloween I should say. I hope everyone had themselves some fun last night, and that everyone stayed safe and checked all their candy for puncture wounds from needles and the such! God knows we got some crazies out there these days. A friend of mine lives three houses down from some lady who killed her own child, two kids she was babysitting, and even two dogs in the house at the time all because she heard demonic voices coming from somewhere. So, yeah, we think people aren’t crazy enough to lace candy they hand out on Halloween, but then we get reminded that people hear the devil at other people’s houses and go on murdering sprees that don’t end with them killing themselves, and get reminded that maybe we ought to check for those puncture wounds in the damn candy!! Really, I’m just kidding, nobody laced any of your candy with anything!

Anyway, Halloween gets the bastard stepchild treatment than other holiday’s get, considering networks still ran new … Continue reading →
