"Survivor" fans, what do you think so far?

**momcat** · 09-22-2011, 07:15 PM

There were a few surprises when Survivor began last week, for those who haven't seen it yet all I can say is 3 of them took me by surprise. It has only been two episodes but do you have any favorites yet? Anyone you want to see gone? So far it looks like this is going to be a good one. It might be fun for those of us watching to get a good discussion going, there has always been a lot to talk about on this show.

The apple does not fall far from the Hantz tree.

The worst thing you can do is question a woman's ability to cope in this game.

They can, after all, push human beings thru their pelvis'.....I rest my case.

Amen!

At tribal council last night, they learned that one of the men was a liar. (He's also a religious wack-job who thinks because he's attracted to a woman, she is evil and must leave or else he'll be "tempted").

Yet, no one wrote his name down. They only wrote down the names of the women!

Will someone please hang up Coach by his short and curlies?
'nuff said.

**Bengalz** · 09-23-2011, 09:06 AM

On the negative - Brandon just creeps me out and I hope no woman ends up with him on RI

On the positive - Ozzie and Keith are pure eye candy

not too mention good competitors

In the neutral - the Harvard geek job is too funny for words but I doubt he's capable of anything else

Noteworthy: Mikala kicks butt and I hope she gets far in this game.

This should be a good season!!

PS. Jeff and his dimples ... always a pleasure

I'm wondering how long Brandon can keep his "secret" especially now that he told Coach. I was kind of annoyed with Brandon last night about Mikayla. What kind of reason is that to vote someone off? A co-worker and I are wondering what Russell might have told him about playing Survivor before he came.

Is Cochran for real? He looks like what my son would call a "piss ant". And does Christine (voted out last night) have an attitude problem or what?

This is a lovely bunch of coconuts and some interesting developments are yet to come. I'm looking forward to next week.

I think "Eye of the Tiger" is their best song, but I also like "Can't Hold Back".

Oh, wait, we're talking about the TV show, not the band. Sorry.

Cassie, has your mom been into your catnip again?

Loved the end last night.

Two things about playing 'strategy' in this game.

You can't and you have to stop with the trying to keep your tribe together into the merge.

Where coach screwed up is by promising 'final five' to everyone so early into the game and trying to keep the tribe faction as a unit, eventually you have to turn on the people you bring along and whatever promises you made will end up going against you. Especially if you make too many promises.

Ozzy screwed up by not sticking with his tribe and thinking that his going to RI would benenfit him in the long run. He beat everyone on RI and kept himself fed and strong, but he lost control of the game. He came back to a to a tribe where he had no allies and the numbers of his winning immunity were stacked against him. He was playing against 4, then three people - not the individual challenges he was so good at.

I am glad they did away with the 'final walk' where they talk about the people who left the game and why burn down the area where they stayed?

Russell Hantz is a jerk.

**Bengalz** · 12-19-2011, 08:50 AM

The outcome was no surprise - Sophie is one smart lady. I am sorry Ozzie did not win the million. Despite his exuberance, he did play an amazing physical game and unfortunately lost his focus in that last puzzle challenge - what a shame for I believe he would have won hands down against the other three.

Richard - you are so right! Russell Hantz is a miserable excuse for a human being; even though I find Brandon pretty creepy, I hope he is a stronger person for this experience and stays true to himself. It's not a wonder he's so messed up - his family is something else!!

Synopsis:

Ever wonder what planet Coach lives on? Too bad...

I liked Cochrane better at the reunion - he has been humbled and it seems to have done him some good

Dawn is an incredible person and I wished she had gone further in the game

Rick's anger in the end was a true surprise - kudos to him for giving Coach a piece of his mind

I would have expected more than diplomacy from Edna at the jury session

A funny thing: I did not seem to enjoy Survivor as much this season yet, at the end I found myself wondering more about each and every player - what's up with that?

**Bonny** · 12-19-2011, 05:16 PM

I have a lot of respect for Dawn. A sweet wise compassionate lady.

Sophie learned a lot about herself & what others think about her.

Brandon had a born again experience.

Cochran out foxed himself.

Ozzy had the brawn but in the end his brain had a melt down.

Still waters run very deep within Rick.

The false prophet Coach, used God & received what he deserved in the end which is nothing.

Uncle Russell needs to give it up.
