Survivor: Philippines

And he's closer to our age, Amy. We wouldn't be considered "cougars." Ha!

They were glaring at Coach because no one likes him, lol.

True enough! I heard he won another Emmy!

Second episode tonight! Unfortunately I will miss it because I am going to a musical. But hopefully they will have it on demand. Plus the Penguins first pre-season game is on tv tonight. But that game doesn't count.

Beckie---spoiler alert!!


Well, Christine sure did dig her own grave last night, didn't she?! Yeah, WHO is the 'temporary player'????


It was another good episode....I liked the challenge too. It amazes me how they can still keep coming up with great ideas for challenges after all these years!


And, leave it to Ozzy to find the idol!

Glad it was Christine who went

I got to watch it on my computer for the most part. Unfortunately my computer kept acting up.

Poor Papa Bear.

Yeah he was the guy I had in the pool. I knew he was not gonna last. Not to disappointed. I won money last year and there is still Redemption Island.

Don't care for Papa Bear. Have fun in Redemption Island buddy

We couldn't watch on Wednesday, so my dad recorded it. We just got together for dinner and Survivor night at my parents house. Yep, not crazy about Papa Bear, myself. I must say I got a kick out of watching him run through the woods though!

Ok, a couple of people who are becoming favorites rather quickly for me....I'm seriously starting to love Cochran. That kid is just funny! And what a smarty pants! I loved him in Tribal, totally throwing Papa Bear under the bus about that 'supposed' idol, and how it made him look suspicious. Love this kid and the way he thinks! I hope he somehow goes far....it looks like he's really playing the game in the next episode. Looking forward to that.

Then there's Sophie...she said a couple of things that really impressed me, regarding Brandon. She seems like a cool and 'normal' chick and is totally onto him...both her and Coach are. It seems like she and Coach really 'get' each other, so maybe they'll start allying more.

And oh my gosh, I never thought I'd say this. I like Coach this season!! So far anyway! He's almost....dare I say it?....normal!!! I think he's consciously reinventing himself, trying not to 'wig' anybody out. Good move.

And Brandon. Well, Brandon is really digging himself an early grave. Coach said it right...he is just plain old immature and mouthy, and he'll be out soon, I'm sure.

One other guy I do NOT like is Jim. I think that's his name. He said something to the effect, "It's not just that Papa Bear is a zero, he doesn't pull his own weight." Um, a ZERO???? That was just mean and uncalled for. I've learned all I need to know about that guy.

Overall it's shaping up to be a good season so far!

(OH, and oh my gosh, what was with the crazy poem the redemption island girl was chanting??? Are you kidding me?! That takes the Survivor cake! Jeff's reaction was awesome! ).

I was cracking up at Papa Bear when he lost control of that spinning thing and almost fell backwards! He looked so goofy. I laughed out loud! It slipped right out of his hands. I think they should have had Ozzy turning that wheel instead of Cochran or Papa bear. They maybe should have pulled Cochran in instead.

I feel bad for poor Brandon. I think he means well, he just doesn't know how to do it without looking like a jerk. I think he is a little cutie, lol.

Albert, that darker skinned guy is a hunk too!! Keith is ok. I love his long black hair.


That Jim guy seems arrogant. He thinks he is such a good player. I don't like him because he peddles dope. It's legal with his place, but I hate dope and anyone involved in it.

Coach's reaction the the spoken word chick was funny too. I laughed out loud then as well. I was just thinking about what a weirdo he was on his first season. The second one just a little weird, and this season he seems pretty normal.

I know! I don't like Jim either ...

... and yeah... poem girl's poem was not strong enough

Did anybody hear about this?

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Rupert Boneham won over TV viewers during 2004's "Survivor: All-Stars" — earning a nifty $1 million as the overwhelming choice for fan favorite. Now the bushy-bearded, tie-dye-wearing Boneham is hoping Indiana voters will find him just as charming.

Boneham, 47, announced Saturday that he's seeking the Libertarian Party nomination for Indiana governor, saying he wants to take on the state's political establishment because he feels voters deserve better.

Oh man... I have a bad feeling about this lol

That was such a shocking move by Ozzy. I nearly fell off the couch. I can't wait for next week's show. It's going to be crazy! I hope he can win the duel.

I'd laugh if he lost the duel.

I only saw bits and pieces. What was Ozzy's rationale for wanting to go to Redemption Island?

Because he thinks he had the best change of beating Christine.

I kind of lost respect for him on that move weather he pulls it off or not.

But why does he feel it's necessary to beat her now? If she wins her way back into the game, why can't he just beat her in a challenge at the end?

Oh, and when people are sent to the Island, do they get the same food their tribemates are getting back at the camp?

Also, before the merge, tribes tend to vote off the weakest players. Afterward, they vote off the strongest ones who pose the biggest threat. So even if he beats Christine, Ozzy is probably going to be facing a very strong challenger every week... except maybe Cochran.

rob, their thinking is that if the teams merge and Christine comes back into the game, she will switch sides and vote with the other tribe, giving them more people. He decided that if he went to Redemption Island and beat her in the duel, they would have more people on their side at the merge.
Their one worry is that the merge doesn't happen after this next duel and the team back in the game will be without Ozzy and would likely lose without him.
Time will tell.

Wow! Ozzy pulled it off... but yeah, the other tribe didn't believe his story for one bit!

What do you guys think about Cochran switching from his tribe??????????
