So I noticed that there is no Survivor 2/14 thread.
What gives? :dubious:
Last week’s was so dull that nobody could be bothered? Well, that’s my opinion at least…
Here’s hoping the showmances doesn’t take over the show too completely. The Ozzy/Amanda/James/Parvati love quadrangle is nasty enough without factoring in the Ozzy/Parvati previous hookup… the geometry just gets too complicated.
I had forgotten about Ozzy’s amazing athleticism. He ran across those floating wetrocks like a gazellean Jesus.
I’m stealing this…
Anyway, wow…the testosterone tide of the Alpha-Males has crashed against the shore, hasn’t it? Like many reality show contestants, I find that I like Joel much better when he doesn’t actually speak…
And what was with him getting everyone else to vote for Mary and then voting for Tracey?!
The clues for the immunity idol were just…cruel. So, so cruel. “Swim over there!” “No, swim back over there!” “No, actually, you need to swim back to where you started.” “Oh, no, we’re sorry, we meant you need to swim across to that other island again.” “Whoops! Looks like you need to go back to where you were dropped off!” Poor Cirie!
Geez…between the bathroom sex on Big Brother and the shelter sex on Survivor, I’m not sure CBS shouldn’t have a deal with Skinemax…
Wait! Spoiler boxes for the next few hours please!
It’s only 7:30 here…
Mikey B shot himself in the foot with his convoluted voting scheme. (“You four vote for Kathy if she gives the II to the gay dude, but you 3 vote for the other chick as well”.) Nobody had any idea what he was saying and decided instead to vote out his lean-to nookie. El-oh-el.
I never understand why someone would read a thread that discusses what happened on a show that they intend to watch at a later time. 
OK. Chet’s dive into the water was so… <sigh>
It’s not a later time. It doesn’t start until eight.
In any case, there’s often stuff that’s interesting to read before the show has started in any time zone. Then suddenly there’s a spoiler. Spoiler boxes are just common courtesy.
Haven’t we already had this argument? Multiple times? If there’s a time difference and you’re on the late end of it, read the thread up until it airs on the east coast then don’t read the thread until it airs for you. Doing it otherwise involves great big expanses of spoiler-box black and an awful pain in the ass to read thread for those of us who HAVE seen it already.
Is it so awfully difficult for West Coasters just to not read the thread until you’ve seen the show?
Jesus, Astroboy! This issue has been discussed and DECIDED over and over.
There’s no reason why the east coasters should have to do something extra and make the whole thread annoying and difficult to read just because you (apparently) don’t have enough self control to just not open the thread for a couple of hours.
Furthermore, when we over-use spoiler boxes, it gets real hard to differentiate between the “spoiler box because of the wah-wah-west coasters” and "spoiler box that contains actual spoilers.
FTR, this west coaster opts to not open threads like this until I’ve seen the show, live or DVR-ed.
James, James, James. sigh You’ve gone from stud to gelding, and all it took was a little Parvarti eyelash-batting. She sucks. For all her talk of showing she’s just more than a flirt, all she’s doing of note is flirting.
I also noted that Amanda’s fuzzy condition has spread to her chest.
Chet–duuuuude, seriously, if you’re that lousy in the water–volunteer to assemble the puzzle, m’kay? Man, he was pathetic.
And two shelters for the fans? WTF?
Best – ever – " ‘WTF???’ Expression Award at Tribal" goes to Mikey B. I’m afraid his face may be stuck in that position for days, poor fellow.
I’m afraid I still said after the vote… “Mary? Who’s Mary??” when they voted her out. This is why I didn’t even watch the early seasons until the tribe merge – its just a jumble of players this early.
I can’t (well, I can) believe they made Cirie and Crazy Lady swim that channel four times looking for clues. It may be interesting what clues are handed down for the next Exile pair. Does the next pair start from ground zero again, and swim the channel four times (again!) until they finally figure out what the “legs sticking out of the ocean” clue means?
The Fans tribe is just a mess - separate shelters, three names in the voting. Lots of left out players, and Hercules appears to have pulled out a win. I find the guy very creepy (my SO agrees), we’ll see how that tribe shakes out. Lotsa ego to go around.
I can certainly understand that. But what’s important about watching the early episodes is to see who DOESN’T get air-time, especially in the confessionals. The theory goes that since it takes time to develop characters, the ones leaving sooner will be developed sooner than the ones leaving later. You can pretty much tell who will be around later by the simple fact that the producers all but ignore them early on.
I think it was so he could say to Mikey afterwards “I didn’t cast a vote for Mary.”
The legs thing was just pointing to another clue, and they found it. They actually appear to have gotten all of them…we just don’t know if they found the II or not (and it’s not like they’re going to actually let us know).
Not only that, but also Parvati’s crotch. WTF is going on in that shelter anyway?
If only he could have multiplied his hand caught fish(!). Of course, now that he’s got fishing gear, fins and a mask, I assume the Favorites will be feasting every day.
Anyone else think it would have been a good idea for the faves to send Chet to isolation after his challenge debacle? Man, I was glad Jeff called him on it at council.
I was trying to figure out a way the two outcasts could switch up the clues or something to mess up folks who came later.
The one outcast was from my hometown. Gotta say she didn’t show me much to cheer for.
Why on earth does everyone feel they need to just stand around and do nothing, while one or two people try to make fire. I know they have the machete, but surely you can find SOMETHING to do!
Exactly how much remodelling do folks think that home builder has had done on herself?
So we know it wasn’t Chinese censors that were doing the fuzzing. C’mon, CBS. Now you’re fuzzing a little nipplage? Who’s in charge of the machine, Pat Robertson? We want Amanda nipples, and we want them now!
