Survivor

I loved Mookie and Alex's faces when the vote tally started. Priceless!

It is a shame Cassandra sent Mookie to Exile Island. I would have sent Alex, since he's more of the ring leader, and it would have given the others some time to work on Mookie, and would prevent Alex from scheming. Oh well.

I hope Yau-man holds out next week and doesn't get screwed over somehow. He's been awesome.

Well, Yau-Man is safe at least one more week, since he has an Immunity Idol. I'm amazed by that little old man's ability in challenges.

The trouble with Dreamz (what a stupid name) turning on everyone is that he doesn't have much of a chance if he's in the finals. The more people you backstab to get there, the fewer votes you get.

Why don't they like Cassandra? She seems pretty harmless to me.

One thing is obvious - whenever they show people chirping confidently about how their alliance is solid and they're on their way to the final four, no problem - you just know it's all going to fall apart.

This season went from the worst to having one of the best Survivor episodes ever. I could watch the faces of the four dipshits falling at tribal council over and over again. That was so well played.

And Yao-Man continues to ROCK!!! He is the cutest thing ever. I hope they do not steal his II next week. I will be so depressed if he or Earl don't win.

I miss Michelle though. She is so damn adorable.

I caught the last 15 minutes of the show. (I forgot to set up the DVR).

Does anyone know where I could see the complete show?

Isn't there a rule that a HII has to be specifically given to another person? As in, it can't be stolen. Or did I dream that up?

That's what I thought so I am hoping the previews were misleading.

Disregard my last message.

The complete episode is on the CBS website.

Interesting episode! Great twist in the game.

Well, it worked for Richard Hatch and Dr. Will on Big Brother. Sometimes, your oponents appreciate your game, to outwit and outplay them. If they don't he could walk away with 100 thousand dollars.

That's very true, but Hatch and Will had a plan. Dreamz seems like a nice enough guy, but he doesn't seem very bright - his blabbing just sort of works out for him, up to this point. He votes or plans his votes with his emotions, based on who was nice to him or not. Now, granted, there's no rule that says you can't vote for someone you don't like, but is that rush of emotions going to get you ahead in the game? So far, the only vote he made that wasn't based on his world of "who was mean to me today?" was the throwaway vote for Mookie, and that's only because everyone decided to vote for Edgardo at the last minute without telling him. Other than that, look at the reasonings for his votes - Lisi because he didn't like her, Michelle because she said she didn't know him. Those votes just happened to work out with how the majority was voting, but still - it was like he had no plan. He almost voted for Stacy just because he didn't like her. And sometimes in Survivor, you just have to suck it up and be on the tribe with someone you don't like if that works in your favor towards the million, somehow. Plus the way he blabs one team's plans to the other team - you can tell it's not strategy. It's because he's been trusted with a big whopper of a secret and can't resist telling anyone, which he's now done a couple of times. He really has no more thought behind his gameplay than a 12 year old kid on a sugar high - he just hasn't been caught by his bad form yet.

Maybe I'm not paying close enough attention, but why doesn't anyone like Michelle? I felt bad for her when her name came up in the challenge every time they had to pick someone they didn't want to see again, isn't playing the game well, whatever. She seems pretty under the radar to me.
