Are you talking about when she was wearing jeans? In the middle of the search footage they showed scenes from her looking for idols in her two previous seasons.
Maybe, but with 15 left it seems more likely they’ll just do 3 tribes of 5 each - not unprecedented.
I’m still not sure what’s in store for the Extinction Island inhabitants, but I’d be very surprised if they’re simply plopped back into the game at any point. There has to be more to it than that.
The problem with winning last night’s reward challenge, is that probably most of the tribe that won the chickens will be swapped off that beach.
I did not catch that! :smack:
No worries - just wanted to make sure we saw the same thing!
Speaking of which, that advantage from the boat is no good anymore, right? It was good through the third tribal. Stealing the chickens was his last chance to use it.
I’m not sure what game Wendy is playing, but I don’t think it’s Survivor. Although she might be dumb enough to think it is.
No, I got that (even if SlackerInc didn’t ;)) When she’s first shown running into the jungle frantically to look for the HII, she’s wearing the aqua-green top over her swimsuit. Then she’s wearing a pink swimsuit top and a green-yellow skirt, and then they do the cut ins of her idol hunts from previous seasons, and then when she actually finds it now, she’s wearing the pink top/green skirt again.
Looking at it closer though, I guess it’s the same clothes - the pink is the swimsuit she’s wearing all along, and she took off the green top and put on the skirt (which it looks like she’s got draped around her shoulders when she’s talking with Joe about how the returnees are in trouble).
I thought for sure the Edge of Extinction members would be the 3rd tribe last night - surprised to see they haven’t had any interaction with the remaining players.
I do not get the original Blue now Green tribe.
Wendy has simply gone (always been?) nuts.
The rest of them…
Last week the Reward Challenge came down to a puzzle, they sent in Kelley and David, who failed miserably. Then they lost the IC and voted off one of their strong young guys. Okaaay.
This week the IC came down to a puzzle, so they sent in…Kelley and David? Who failed. So they go to TC and vote off … one of their strong young guys.
Really? Are we witnessing the first tribe to deliberately commit mass suicide??
I read Dalton Ross’ recaps of Survivor and apparently David was really talking up his prowess with puzzles at the beginning of the season. He claimed that he had used a 3-d printer to make copies of all kinds of variations of puzzles used on the show so that he could practice. I bet he also bragged to his team that he was a puzzle guy.
Loved seeing the Spartan race style slip wall in the immunity challenge, where you form a human ladder to get to the top. It’s a bit taller and steeper in the Spartan race, so it can’t be run up.
The textbox solution is to form a ladder to the top, with the biggest guy on the bottom and second biggest at the top. Top guy holds on with both arms while the bottom “rungs” scramble up. Top guy is the last to throw his legs over.
I love those kind of team challenges, and would like to see more of them. Not entirely sure that’s the direction Survivor wants to go in, though.
Yeah that was pretty cool. I do wonder if they tested it in dry conditions and expected it to be easier to get over, but good thinking by the contestants.
Definitely a fake-out with Rick, I was pretty certain the vote would be for Lauren (whether or not she played her HII was a different question). Why they’re not voting out obviously useless + returnee David is beyond me.
Of course we still don’t know what’s in store for the folks on Extinction Island, but I’ve decided what I hope happens.
When they reach a certain number of ousted players (5, 7, 9, whatever), they bring them all to Tribal Council. Jeff chats them up about their experience on the Island, how they’re all getting along, and so forth. He then announces that one of them is about to get back into the game, and they’re all about to vote for the person (other than themselves) they think deserves it most. And before anybody has a chance to campaign for themselves or discuss their choice, “It’s time to vote.”
Everyone else goes home for good. And Reem instantly regrets being so bitchy to everybody.
I agree in general.
The original comment I was responding to was that (paraphrased) “the editors did a great job crafting that into a blindside for us viewers.” I disagreed, saying the editors played it totally straight, showing us Victoria come up with the plan, execute the plan, and succeed.
As in, “not a blindside for us viewers.” Make sense?
If that was how the comment was phrased, then yes: I see what you mean.
Omigoodness, I laughed hard at this.
I feel like at least three of the players who got “speaking roles” tonight were people I didn’t even realize were in the game.
Yup, during the challenge I said “I didn’t realize we had both a Julie and a Julia…”
Also, when did everyone start calling Rick “Devins”? That certainly felt like it came outta nowhere.
Was a bit surprised to see Wendy exit the game. Not so surprised by Keith, who is useless (kinda think Reem should too, but she’s probably too cantankerous to give up).
I wish we saw Keith and Wendy build up to raising the flag a bit more.
