At the end of every season Probst congratulates the contestants and says something like, “This was one of our best seasons ever, if not the very best.” This season I think I actually agree with him. This was a fantastic season and virtually every player was a real joy to watch. Old players I […]

I can understand, psychologically, why bringing loved ones in for a challenge is important to the players. As a viewer, though, I always dread the loved ones episode; it’s virtually never strategically interesting. When they devote twelve minuets of an episode to greetings from Great Uncle Al followed by twelve more of weepy reunions, you’ve […] I was under the impression that this week was going to involve a double elimination. That ended up not happening — not really. We did in fact see two people leave, but in separate tribal councils and after having played separate immunity challenges. It was more like having two full episodes condensed down into one […] In this episode: Russell makes a mistake, and Rupert talks strategy. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you: Bizarro Survivor. Let’s zip through the early stuff. We are merged, now. The new tribe is called “Yin Yang”. Rupert wanted to call the tribe “The Winners”, apparently forgetting that seven out of ten members haven’t won the […] Well, after a 20-ish minute commercial for Outback Steakhouse we finally got to watch some Survivor tonight. Somewhere in there Parvati and Danielle found a hidden idol, and none of the Heroes bothered listening to J.T. about the challenge they were about to play (which he had already won once). Bloomin’ onions! J.T. and the […] (Late update! Tried to get this typed up my first hour at the office, but wouldn’t ya know they had actual work for me? Oh well!) Just typical early-in-the-episode stuff, up until the reward challenge. The challenge itself was bowling, and the Heroes won easily. But two interesting things happened which changed the game […] I didn’t remember Courtney or Candice from their previous seasons. A few weeks ago I decided Candice was a crappy player, and this week I’ve made that determination about Courtney as well. Anyone who could watch Russell’s brilliant play at the previous tribal council and come away from it thinking he has a boyish crush […] No show this week. It got pre-empted by some basketball thing maybe? Who knows. All I know is I didn’t get to watch Russell and Boston Rob crash into each other with a massive fiery explosion, and that makes me SADFACE. I’m kind of glad for the off-week, though, because there’s an interesting topic […] |
