Survivor: Samoa

[Marx]

Did feel bad how Betsy said she waited 6 years to get on the show.

I liked Betsy.

 

[bullets]

Betsy was a good person .

If I was sleepin and I heard ben chopping wood I would of yelled at him . It kind of got creepy for a moment , I thought Ben was going to flip his lid.

This season is just leaving a bad taste in my mouth after these past two episodes. The editing is sloppy and erratic, one entire tribe has been completely ignored except for one person (Shambo), and we're getting the two biggest a-holes in quite some time being shoved down our throats.

They need to pick up, otherwise I might have to tune out of Survivor for the first time ever until Season 20 rolls around.

Well, they always focus on the team up for elimination more and since Fao Fao has yet to win an immunity challenge they're getting more air time. Also they have the contestants with the big personalities.

This. No one wants to watch a bunch of normal people thrive together. Give me lots of backstabbing, crying, and shame please.

 

[SuperT]

I think they need to stop making these cast so overbloated with 20 people, because there's always people they completely ignore for an entire season, which is absolutely ridiculous.

Stop making overbloated cast and they need to go back to the editing of the earlier seasons where we got to know everyone in the cast instead of just focusing on a handful of people and then completely ignoring the rest.

It's no fun not knowing over half the cast, and then people that they focus on are complete attention wh****!

It's always been like that though, can you really tell me anything about Amber in Australia? I'm pretty sure she made it to the final four, but never that the screentime of Jerry or Colby. In the first episode with a smaller cast they've got 45 minutes to establish 16 "characters". Not an easy task.

 

[SuperT]

Yea, but being an UTR character in earlier season is not even comparable to be an UTR character in these later seasons.

Amber at least got one confessional every episode, nowadays on Survivor there are people that go four to five episode from the start and never get a single episode.

One that immediately pops into mind was Jenn from Palau and Natalie from Fans vs. Favorite. They both went like four episodes starting with the first one and never got a single confessional or even any hint that they were even on the cast. I think that's ridiculous personally. Moreso for Jenn since I have Palau on DVD and watching the extra footage that was cut, she was a freakin' awesome player.

 

[bullets]

Survivor does this alot but also they have to find a story in what they are filming. Not all of it is going to be interesting and some of th eplayers don't say much.

 

[Marx]

I can understand where everyone is coming from...but I would like to see more of Galu and less of Russell H and Ben.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

Well if Fao Fao would win some challenges we'd see more of them. Gotta show the tribe that figuring out who to kick out. Looks like we'll be seeing plenty of them in the second half of the season though.

 

[LEX]

Wow...I cannot stand Russell H. or Ben.

And now Russell H. has a freakin' immunity idol!?!?!

Oh, I know. It effin' irks me that he seems to be sailing through the game with apparent ease.

Didn't want Betsy to go, obviously. Russell H. is a classic example of an insecure little egotist who cannot seem to handle dissent even in its slightest form. Betsy and Marissa "threatened" him; ergo, they had to go. Man sure wants to be surrounded by yes-people.

The only good thing about him is the feeling of relief I have of not knowing a person like him in my real life.

Yeah, that just makes me sick.

Exactly Lex. He's just a troll...

 

[Wyrminarrd]

It's sad that the troll seems to be better at this game then anyone else this season. Russell is a complete jacka** but you have to admit that he's so far been good at getting what he wants though the tactics he's using can't last forever.

 

[Trigger]

To be fair it is Survivor. Who do you expect to win? A nun? This game is about competition and outwitting people, and sometimes the sleaziest and meanest person will rise on top. I can't stand Russell, but he has so far provided the most interesting moments on the show. I'm sure he'll be voted out soon enough, so we can all stop whining about him. If he's not voted out, then he'll be ousted once the individual competions start.

 

[Immortalfire]

That rumble was pretty intense, I noticed they had to blur out some apparent boobage. lol

I felt bad for Mike, having to be pulled out. But it was for the best..hope he feels better

 

[SuperT]

Mike's health was bad before this since he had to get pulled out of Tocantins and replaced before it aired, I wonder why they took a chance on him again.

He looked like he was about to keel over and croak at any second. He was not fit for this game at all.

 

[Immortalfire]

I didn't know that. Hmmm...

 

[SuperT]

Yep, he was pulled out right before filming started and Spencer replaced him.

Don't read if you don't want to know ANYTHING about next season:

Spoiler

Apparently, and these are just rumors that are floating around the net, next seasons 20th anniversary All Star edition the players will be separated into tribes of Heroes vs. Villains. Here's the supposed tribal breakdown:

Heroes

Colby Donaldson (Australia, All Stars 1)
Cirie Fields (Exile Island, Micronesia)
Amanda Kimmel (China, Micronesia)

Jerri Manthey (Australia, All Stars 1)
Courtney Yates (China)
Danielle DiLorenzo (Exile Island) THIS CANNOT BE TRUE, SERIOUSLY?!!
Sandra Diaz-Twine (Pearl Islands) NOW THIS MAKES NO SENSE! SHE WAS NOT A VILLAIN

There are boot spoilers, but I won't post those.

 

[Marx]

Did anyone hear about the tsunami that hit Samoa yesterday? Nearly one hundred people are already confirmed dead...and some villages were flattened.

I don't know, I haven't seen Russell playing that great of a game so far. Sure the people he wanted gone have been eliminated, but at the same time both members were easy targets with the way the tribe was thinking.

Marissa, the entire tribe was thinking young girl because they're "weak", looked like Ashley at first the Russell just says to go with Marissa instead, not really a hard sell, it's just replacing one young girl with another.

Betsy would've been a lot harder sell if Mike wasn't taken out, but that week people were gunning for someone older. I thought they should've gotten rid of Ben, mainly because his temper and dirty tactics will cost them more challenges, but they were thinking physical strength over any thing else, so Betsy needed to go since she was old.

Can't wait to see Russell use that idol since the valid idols for each tribe are supposedly at the other tribes camp. This is not the idol I'm looking for, into the fire it goes.

Oh wow...that's right!

 

[SuperT]

The preview for this weeks episode was horribly misleading.

Apparently when Jaison was saying "It's him or me" in the preview he wasn't even talking about Russell. Apparently Ben takes his racial slurs to a new height and it pisses off Jaison so he wants him gone.

 

[CELTICPRED]

Can't wait to see this weeks.
