Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains

[SuperT]

Everyone on the Heroes tribe, except Candice, and get voted out now. Hate JT, Colby, and Tom.

I'll miss you Cirie.

 

[Marx]

I can't believe both tribes ended up reading the immunity idol note in front of the entire tribe. And then people still go looking for it knowing they'll be targeted!?!

 

[SuperT]

Yea, reading the clue then immediately going to look for the idol was freakin' stupid on both Tom and Russell's parts. Soo sooo dumb.

Sandra making Coach cry = E P IC
Sandra spying on that hobbit Russel saying he was a stupid*** looking for the Idol = Even more E P IC

I love Sandra.

 

[Marx]

Yeah, Sandra is great!

It was also nice to see Coach and Tyson talking one on one again. (Despite Coach crying all the way through it.)

 

[Matt]

I still don't get why Sandra is a villain. She and Rupert were allies who played the same game. How is one a villain and one a hero?

I'm still trying to figure that one out...

 

[CELTICPRED]

Sandra followed an order guys. Rob could have told anyone to go spy on Russell.

As for the idol, the maneuvering after the discovery on both halves of the heroes tribe was certainly entertaining. Also, Rupert is finally called out as a blockhead.

Danielle = fine.

Danielle + oil + ridiculous amount of cleavage = super hella sexy ****em fine.

I was annoyed with Probst at last nights Tribal Council. I hated how he was trying to butt into the strategy and getting on peoples cases because they had the audacity to target Colby & Tom.

It's a game Probst! Nobody is just going to sit around and let Colby and Tom steamroll through the game, Cirie especially since it's her MO to get rid of the alpha male players that threaten her game.

And secondly, is voting out Tom or Colby even that detrimental to the tribe?! Tom and Colby have underperformed in every challenge thus far in the game, except the sumo challenge. My gosh, they are both getting owned by Coach and Tyson for petes sake! If I remember correctly, they both lost their heats during last nights reward challenge just like Cirie AND Tom failed at being the caller during the puzzle challenge.

So using the excuse of "We need to keep the strength" is B.S. If the big guys aren't performing in the challenges, what's the point in keeping them in the game? There is no point. I don't see the Heroes going on any immunity winning streaks anytime soon.

Cirie/Candice executed an excellent plan that was screwed up by that dumby JT. He's proving that Stephen clearly was the strategic leader in their alliance during Tocantins since Cirie revealed that she planned on going to the end with JT.

 

[Matt]

Oh my, you're bitter.

 

[SuperT]

Very!

I can't say it's one of the highlights of the season for me watching my second favorite player ever be taken out by Tom/Colby (who I'm not a fan of at all) by a hidden immunity idol. :heh:

 

[LEX]

Although I knew beforehand that Cirie was a goner and liked her, that blindside was still oh-so-sweet to see unfold! Those gloating, then drooping, smiles on Rupert and Candice's faces were HILARIOUS!

Also, I thought that by now, it would be clear that the Heroes and Villains labels mean absolutely nothing here, or they do in what TPTB probably thought was a cleverly ironic way. Yeah, no. The Heroes are acting here more like villains than the Villains are. That's not to say that the Villains have renounced their old ways and claimed their halos, of course, only that when it comes to Survivor, there is no such thing as holds-barred gameplay; rarely one that wins the million dollars, anyway. And that makes me sad to see Cirie go, giddy that JT isn't letting such a silly label hold him back from playing the game, and even giddier that the rest of the tribe are struggling to maintain what's left of their so-called reputations.

Which brings me to the Villains. Russell, you damn transparent little fool. Because of the sheer entertainment you provided last season, I so want to root for you, I really do, but you're making it real ****ing difficult. Unless you somehow miraculously manage to get through this unscathed, I'm done with you.

And I do wish that TPTB would, for all that is good and innocent, just stop with the lame-tastic editing of Coach's pseudo-yoga scenes. They're already cheesy enough without the dramatic fade-outs. Any more of them and I might just hurl all over my screen.

More blindsides like this, please. Even if they're for the players I'm pulling for to win, i.e. Boston Rob and TJ, provided that they're half as entertaining as tonight's.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

Glad to see Cirie voted out, always felt she was incredibly overrated.

Seeing Coach's little breakdown was even better though, espeically when he talked to Rob, it was so much like the geeky kid trying to convince the cool kid to be friends with him.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

I still don't get why Sandra is a villain. She and Rupert were allies who played the same game. How is one a villain and one a hero?

I think the Heroes and Villians label all has to do with attitude and ego. If you're more humble you're a hero, if you're full of yourself you're a villian.

I totally agree, she was looking hot in that frilly bikini. I think Amanda looks really good this season. Definitely the cutest one out there for me. Also, James looked like an ebon god all oiled up like that.

I too am losing my faith in Russell. I want to keep rooting for him but he is really making it hard with his stupid a$$ actions. I think he has stars in his eyes and is not thinking like the Russell I loved in the last season. He is like the fat kid trying to prove himself that he is cool to the jocks.

Great season thus far.

 

[Marx]

I just can't stand Russell.

I definitely agree, they need drop all the worthless Coach fluff. You're telling me that they have absolutely nothing else to show? Every single woman on the Villans tribe, except Sandra, was completely ignored last night. What the heck was up with that?!

Nobody on this season has even seen Samoa, yet they all have Russell's number pegged. He's not going to have it easy at all, which is a good thing. I mean, his game solely relies on having the HII in his back pocket, that doesn't make a good player to me.

I hope Sandra calls him out on his BS again.

 

[Trigger]

I blame Cirie's elimination more on her silly mistake than on any real strategy on the part of Tom or JT. She should've forseen that Tom may have played the idol. The smarter move would've been to vote out Colby.

She DID know that Tom was going to play the Idol, that's why they did the split voting. She wanted a buffer in case Tom gave the idol to Colby.

They weren't counting on JT to backstab them.

There was always the chance if Tom caught wind of Colby being voted out, Tom would have given the idol to Colby and the 2 people they voted for got booted. The plan Cirie went with was the best option for them to do, JT just screwed them up.

I am a Cirie fan myself, I think her appeal is she doesn't take the game to seriously and seems to have a positivie attidue about stuff. To me people who go on and on how good they are or they play the game with honesty are way more annoying then people who just seem to be having fun and take everything with a nonchalant stride. All that being said I like Tom and can't stand Colby.

Russell's entire tribe's game last season relied on him having the hidden immunity idol. Natalie would've been voted out soon after Russell if he didn't have that. I don't think Russell is playing a good game this season, but he played a great one last season.

Yeah, she gets everyone to flip their vote to Colby so JT mentions it to Colby and Tom and Tom gives up the idol. Colby and Tom flipped JT, I don't think it was a good strategy on JT's part because now he's part of the smaller alliance, but it was great strategy on Tom's part to try and flip JT.

I missed that. I need to stop multi-tasking while watching Survivor.

I don't blame JT. He was pretty low on the totem pole in that alliance versus Tom and Colby who would actually need him. Of course getting rid of Cirie won't help the heroes when it's time for the merge.

 

[SuperT]

It's hard to say at this point whether it's a good move or not for JT. Amanda/James/Rupert/Candice still have the majority, so it wasn't smart for JT to join a dying alliance. The previews for next week show Candice wanting to jump ship since Cirie was her only connection to the other alliance but of course we all know the previews can be misleading. We'll have to wait and see.

What we can say about JT's game is that all the promise's he's making and alliance double dipping he's doing will almost assuredly come back to bite him in the you-know-what sometime in the future.

 

[Wyrminarrd]

I think that JT made a good move, he heard all of Ciries reasons for voting out Tom and Colby and realized that they applied to him as well. JT had no power within the alliance he was in so his best play was to change things up.

Cirie was a dangerous player who clearly had a strong alliance forming around her, taking her out is a very good move at this point since things can still calm down before the merge. I was amazed at how many players didn't realize that there was practically a pre formed alliance in place between Cirie, Amanda, James and Parvati, its almost like these All-stars don't actually watch the show

 

[SuperT]

Actually, per the Insider, Amanda did not consider Cirie a part of her alliance this season. In the Survivor Insider this week she revealed her core alliance was JT/James/Rupert/Amanda with Cirie/Candice as the floaters. Cirie said in her post show interviews that she hasn't even talked to James, Amanda, or Parvati since Mirconesia ended, so I guess they all weren't as tight as everyone thought.

Apparently Amanda was crushing hard on JT and looking for him to be her new Ozzy. Also, I doubt Amanda and Parvati would hook back up with each other at the merge. Apparently after Micronesia they both had a falling out with each other and are no longer friends.

Impending catfight if they do make the merge together!
