The only thing I'm not sure of is J.T.'s chances for winning it all. If I were handicapping it, I might actually put Taj a little higher, as I can see her making the final three, and I can't imagine she has any real enemies.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-37585379299419424742009-04-24T18:02:00.000-07:002009-04-24T18:02:00.000-07:00I have watched this show since nearly the beginnin...I have watched this show since nearly the beginning, and I am having a difficult time remembering if there was another time that someone was essentially saved - without having anything to do with it.<br /><br />I have been a Sierra supporter from the start, and was ecstatic that she has made it this far. But, she really made no moves to try and get in on another alliance. She was just trying to pity herself back in through Tyson then Coach.<br /><br />But, she gets saved out of the blue with the others (who she should have been talking to) making a great decision. I am sure it has had to happen before, but it was pretty remarkable.<br /><br />I think the game is pretty much JT's unless he screws it up. He also has lost the vote of Coach, Tyson and possibly Debbie by breaking up the 'warrior' alliance.Kanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06913460032124817289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-20310648561704102922009-04-24T12:01:00.000-07:002009-04-24T12:01:00.000-07:00I'm wondering if there's a lot behind the scenes t...I'm wondering if there's a lot behind the scenes that we aren't seeing, because Tyson wasn't the only person to call Sierra an idiot. Most of the tribe was doing it, too, including JT.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-88140585874728217732009-04-24T08:26:00.000-07:002009-04-24T08:26:00.000-07:00Nick, I'm glad you've come to see the light in reg...Nick, I'm glad you've come to see the light in regards to Tyson. As Robb says, he was good for the show because he excelled at the game and played to the cameras, but he was going beyond Randy (last season) levels of assholishness here. And, like Mrs. Fletch pointed out, it's not like Sierra comes off (to us) as dumb, making his attitude and comments all the stranger. The show has seen many a dolt on it, but I never felt like she was one.<br /><br />Stephen is just too pathetic to like. I don't know if you ever watched Arrested Development, but the Buster (Tony Hale) comparison is really scary. I want Stephen to say "Hey, brother" every episode, but he never does.<br /><br />Robb - seriously, huh? I can definitely imagine Coach having to find his inner chi because those bozos in Hollywood just don't know shit about the Code. <br /><br />I'm pleasantly surprised that J.T. did it. Coach is really gonna be disappointed in him. There might be a ceremony where he strips J.T. of his Warrior Badge.<br /><br />Good call on the shuffleboard challenge. My memory for Survivor is usually pretty good, except when it comes to the players. I didn't recall that game.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-13911087624576567982009-04-24T08:06:00.000-07:002009-04-24T08:06:00.000-07:00Fletch, your 7:29 comment had me in tears of laugh...Fletch, your 7:29 comment had me in tears of laughter. You totally know its true. <br /><br />And you are right, I totally thought the Tyson thing was a desperate trick, I'm sure my face looked a lot like Sierra when he read the second Tyson vote. (Frankly I didn't think JT had the balls to do it.) I liked Tyson, but he was a total dick this episode. But the reason I liked him is that he was both playing the game as well as playing to the cameras. He just got too cocky. I really don't know who to root for at this point, I kinda like most everybody left but then they've all disappointed at times too. <br /><br />Next week should be totally awesome though, especially the walk back from council. Coach is gonna be pissed. I'm also curious what Debbie will think after her lecture to Sierra about making bad choices. I hope Sierra tells both of them that the only honorable thing to do now is fall on their sword.<br /><br />I'm guessing next week will be Coach or Sierra going home, depending on who is more annoying at camp. <br /><br />PS - they've played shuffleboard before. The girl who won the other Amazon season and married Africa Ethan won the challenge I think.

And did I miss something with Sierra? I don't see any backstabbing going on there. I just saw her going along with the plan that J.T. and the 'strong' alliance told her to go with, and then wasn't told the plan had changed. If so, everybody was just being a dick to Sierra for THEM not telling her 'nevermind on the Coach thing'.<br /><br />And I'm not 100%, but I think it was Stephen who came up with voting off Tyson. Because right before it happened, my mom and I were like "Well... it's probably Sierra tonight," and then my mom was like "unless J.T. and Stephen come up with some shifty plan." And then right after, we see Stephen talking about voting off Tyson instead.<br /><br />Stephen's always been one of my favorites. I used to really like J.T. (and for all intents and purposes, I still do), but I think I like Stephen slightly more, as J.T. had the tendency to be a bit of a jerk from time to time. And he likes Coach.<br /><br />But my favorite part of the episode was Tribal during the vote readings... to see Tyson's face give that very slight change from smile to 'wtf' with his second vote against him, and Sierra's little head tilt of confusion... it was great.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.com
