It's sad that Tasha's Immunity greatness will be overlooked this season because of buffoon Tony.She really is a challenge beast.She and Spencer really are running this game.Spencer is playing Tony like a violin.Spencer is always thinking ahead. He gets a few extra days and he uses it to is advantage by manipulating Tony. Those two and Tony deserve to be in the final. Woo, bless his heart is a beautiful man but is more gullible than Tony.

Too many damn idols this season. I read somewhere that Tyler Perry was the one who suggested the idol with special powers a few seasons back to the show on Twitter. Anyone know if that is for real? If so that is crazy.
I'm enjoying this season but it's way too much Tony. And you know he is going to be one of those players they bring back again and again.

bronze the EW's review of last night's show also says Tyler Perry thought up the Super Special Secret Idol. If they had brought it into the game earlier, it might have had more power. Now it just ensures the owner, who already seemed locked into the final, an even bigger guarantee!

Wow, that is bizarre. And I agree, if they introduced it near the beginning of the game, like someone had to use it pre-merge it wouldn't be so annoying. It could still impact the game but not be all powerful. If someone gets it post- merge it pretty much guarantees them final four. Thanks a lot Tyler Perry!

Mah Woo Survives another week! WOOOOOOOOO!!! Heh! And since I doubt he'll win, he can definitely start a new career as spokesmodel for BBQ Ribs and Beer. Footage of him chowing down was pretty hot and rewatchable!.... Don't judge me!!
But anyway, I agree about the overdoing it with the idols this go- 'round. Esp. since Tony has found most of them for himself. Now, I don't know if I agree that the producers may have just handed them to him. He just seems determined/ desperate enough to look hard enough to find them. Getting the advantage rock was pure luck. I think there have been producer shenanigans in the past for sure. But I don't think that's the case here. And I gotta begrudingingly give it to Tony just for being so determined/ desparate to keep looking for those idols and also for his constant scrambling and game play. I mean, no one can say he's not working every angle at all times to advance himself. That said, I don't think there's any chance in hades of him winning. He's piled up too many enemies on the jury and there's nothing he can say at the end to sway them to his side. They constantly give him the stink eye every time he opens his mouth. So, if he makes it top three or two or whatever it's going to be- whoever he's up against will get all the votes.
And I hope that person is Tasha! She's been on the bottom of the heap for so long and has kept herself in both through her scrambling and her mad skillz in immunity challanges. Has there ever been anyone to win three times in a row? I really can't remember. But she deserves to go all the way- moreso than Tony. I mean, while I can't hold Tony's trickery and gameplay against him- because that is part of the game. Tasha's played with more integrity. She's stayed loyal to Spencer (even though I can't stand Spencer) and that has kept them both afloat when they've been at the bottom- heck since before the merge. They almost remind me of Malcolm and Denise from a couple seasons ago. Except then it was Malcolm always having the idol and calling all the shots. And Denise nailed him in the end because he made it clear he wasn't going to take her with him to the finals. Spencer can't pull that bull on Tasha, because he's never the one with the power (unless he manages to break her streak and win himself an idol) But if Tasha took Spencer with her to the finals, she'd still beat him- because Spencer is smarmy and not as likable as her. I don't think she's crossed or pissed off anyone yet (Unless they're jus jellus of her mad idol winning skillz)
As for Tyler Perry thinking up the super special idol... well no offense to Mr. Perry, but an idol you can use after the vote isn't that much of a stretch. Of course that would be an awesome super special thing to have. But good on him for thinking it outloud I guess.
It would be funny if Tyler Perry was a stuntcastaway (heh) one season... but maybe he'd even come on in some Midea type disguise so everyone would be like "How come that overweight, elderly woman keeps winning all the challanges!" Hee.

They should really come up with an All Star Survivor that doesn't include Survivor AllStars... just celebrities who think they are badass enough to withstand the process.
I'm looking at you, Matthew McConaughey!

How about an A-list mid-aged celebrity Survivor: Brad and Angie, Jennifer Aniston, Ben and Jen Affleck, Julia, Sandra, Reece, Tom Cruise, Matthew McC., Gwynnie, Russell Crowe, Sean Penn and Charlize, Johnny Depp and... I need one more guy.
It would never happen, but that mix would be EPIC.
As for the actual show, I don't really care anymore. Couldn't the immunity idol be used after the vote when it was first introduced, about 10 seasons ago?

Tom Hanks? How could Johnny Depp survive without all his jewelry!
I'm rooting for Tasha all the way.

Tom Hanks? How could Johnny Depp survive without all his jewelry! Well, you're allowed one luxury item... Oh never mind, he'd probably bring that damn moth eaten hat! Tom Hanks' luxury item would be a deflated soccer ball named Wilson ;-)!!

Do they even do the luxury item thing on Survivor anymore? I've noticed the physical hardships on the show aren't nearly as bad as they were during the early seasons.
