Survivor: Guatemala Thread

[Luvtino]

Danni and BJ both went against their tribe earlier when they voted off Blake, but I think were wise not to do it again this time around. They have however both shown they will go back on their word and both teams will know that soon enough. It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

I don't think BJ or Steph will win because they are easy to vote off as both have been their before. If there is any hemming and hawing as to who needs to go they can fall back on these two. And if Danni really wants Gary to go home she could push his being a former NFL player. She has said it form the beginning and I am surprised they don't believe her. If she can convince them and they feel betrayed that he lied he might get voted out.

Judd is really rude and obnoxious. Jamie is slowly bringing up the rear. Judd is the only one I really can't stand so I am hoping he goes home soon. They should start to vote out the strongest players now that they have merged as you don't want them staying too long and winning challenges at the end. I can't see either winning but ya never know because the biggest mouths and most abrasive can get to the end and win.

It is a vg season because there is no clear cut winner. It will be interesting to see if they try to realign with their old teams. I am sure some will. It is hard not to like Lydia. I didn't like Brandon too much in the beginning but he is becoming one of my faves.

[yankeesAZ]

We knew the merge was coming...they usually do it when there are 10 total players left. I think last season was the first time (when Stephanie ended up spending the night alone in her camp) they didn't merge when it hit 10.

They didn't merge during Thailand right away and Shi-Ann got booted assuming there would be one. There may have been another season too, but I can't remember it off the top of my head. 10 is the traditional number, but that can't be assumed any longer.

Week 8 - InGame Play By Play 1st Period

Crowd filing in...

Hopefully we'll be in for a more unpredictable episode tonight, eh?

Ugh, that chocolate looks AMAZING! :drools:

It's merge night! I hope that Yaxha doesn't get picked off one by one.

A merge, already?? Isn't it a bit early?

Nope, it's right on time. 10 people left!

It usually happens when they hit 9-10 people. There are 9 now, I think...

A Brandon supporter in Row 16: My favorites keep getting booted. Now my favorite is Brandon, which is probably the kiss of death for him. However, hope springs eternal, and my fingers are crossed for Judd to go away. Let the games begin!

I loved the look on Danni's face when Jeff announced the merge. She looked like she is really looking forward to it.

I have a question that not sure anyone can answer but, do the producers have to give anyone a schedule of when merges and changes etc will take place or are they allowed during the gameplay to decide when things take place. Reason I ask is because it seems when Stephenie was on a tribe that most likely would have had more against her they switched it up and now that her side has the numbers over probably her biggest competitiors they are merging.

I can't wait to see Nakum's expression.

Bobby Jon is a f-reak.

Bobby Jon says he can't be around Steph without wanting to vomit. I love this guy...

New stuff for Steph to complain about.

What is Bobby Jon's problem? Him and Jamie need to chill OUT.

Bobby Jon still is P-O'd by Jamie. I don't think BJ is the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I'm with him on this one. Come on, we need a Six Sides of Steel Cage Match between those two.

Oh please! WHY is Stephenie's head spinning over a merge? Like she didn't know it would happen sooner or later?

Jamie is such an ass! Crowd chanting: a****le!

"Is that a log? WOW!"

Bobby Jon might want to chill just a bit.

LOL...."slam out of ya head"...now that's a Southern boy!

Danni's comment was so dumb. "You feel like an outsider." DUH! What else would you expect?

Another color commentator from another TV station: They would be smart to get Lydia on their side -- she's gotta be low-man on the totem pole on either side. Perhaps Rafe too?

Farmboy knows there will not be a big happy family... how observant.

I like the new twist. Immunity idol in the woods.

Lydia reading tree mail. That's the most we've heard her talk since "the pancake."

Jeez Laweez, does everything blow Stephenie's mind? She looks totally dumbfounded all the time. I think she must just be slow.

I hope Brandon finds that idol! Crowd chanting: Let's go Brandon!

Why does Rafe keep on saying the same thing!?!?!? We get it, okay!!

Hee, now there won't be any work done in camp, everyone will be looking for the idol.

I would think, they would all remember most of the tribe will be on the jury, so why make enemies right away....oh wait, I am watching Surivivor MOST don't think.

Steph looks confused....does someone need to draw her a picture?

Can Steph contort her face to look any uglier? Everything requires her eyes to bug out or roll. "WHAT??? You got firewood? What a retard!"

Steph... not very smart. Of course, you're here to backstab, not make friends.

Anti-Stephenie club in the upperdeck: I hate Steph more every week.

Ugh. I hate that Stephenie is callig the shots. I can't stand her whiny butt. Someone needs to vote her out pronto.

I have a lot of faith in Danni. I think she's been pulling more strings then we've been shown.

I think I just spied the idol in the tree trunk, and it sure did look a lot like that Willard dude from a couple of "Survivor" series ago!!!

Why just the jury...the jury cannot win a $1,000,000

Well, there was the idol, hidden in plain sight, but in chameleon mode (same appearance as the tree bark). Looked like BJ was right next to it. Are they messing with us? Or will he find it after the commercial?

Oh, just get rid of Judd, for the same reason you kept him before. He's too strong in the physical challenges. Come on, you know you want him gone . . . dooooooooo it!

If anyone finds it, they will not be able to bring it back to camp. They'll need to hide it out in the woods again, then sneak back before tribal council to get it without being noticed, then if they don't use it, sneak back into the woods to hide it again.
This could go on a few times but I'm guessing in about 2 weeks, everyone will know who found the idol and by week three they will smoke that person out.

A fan in the Reality TV Bar: He knows he doesn't have a prayer. I like BJ as a person as a player, he stinks. He doesn't have it in him to plot to get ahead. He'll go along with it but never begins it. He's just that kind of person

I think Bobby Jon at least went in to this expecting enemies. That's never good.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 8 - InGame Play By Play 2nd Period

I'm not sure about Gary's strategy with this idol. If you made people search for days for no reason, they're gonna be pissed no matter how much they like you.

Lydia supporter in lower bowl seats: Lydia is so cute. I like her.

Lydia has a personality! Why don't we ever see it? Too busy showing Steph being shocked about everything. Lydia seems to have an accent. Where is she from?

Why is Steph targeting Bobby Jon and Brandon? Why not Gary? Brandon better not leave because of her, dammit.

If you find the idol, can it be stolen from you? If you conceal it somewhere and someone else finds it, how would they know if it had already been found? This could get ugly.

Steph is GREEDY!

Awwwww. Poor Steph. Something else to whine about.

Rafe will probably find it, since he is saying he nevers finds anything. Personally I would hold out on it until I hit TC and know I was leaving then pull it out. It could change the game at that point.

Steph is complaining about food. She says the immunity idol is cool and all, but I would rather have food. That is because she knows she is safe and has all the power. I hate when any contestant gets like that.

These guys might want to try a bit harder to blend in.

They have been extreme jerks. I can't really blame them for wanting to get away for awhile. Is Rafe seeing the ugly truth about his tribemates? That might be good.

Rafe is supposed to be a wilderness guide but he sticks his hand right into a hornet's nest? Hee.

I can tell Rafe uses the word 'like' a lot.

Hhhhmm, they sure are showing an awful lot of footage of that annoyance called RAFE tonight.

Nah, I think it means he's flipping. With luck, he'll take Lydia & Cindy with him. Although, Cindy was rather b*tchy about the chocolate last week. So maybe she's really evil too.

Can Rafe talk? Seems he's having trouble a bit and using like, to much, like, you know like, superfluous words, like.

I would like to see Rafe jump to the over side.

A pretty way to play the game?? This is Survivor for goodness's sake.

Steph's tribe is just SO dumb. THe IQ points must be in the negative.

Maybe Rafe is figuring things out some. Maybe there's hope for him. Hello Rafe? If you vote out all the new people, you're next.

Does Cindy ever say anything?

Even THEY think Steph complains too much!

Ahh good, Rafe is wizing up about his awful alliance mates. Yes, Rafe, if you support them, you ARE part of the axis of evil.

Ooohhh, new red boat for the Xhakum tribe. How pretty.
I love how the divided tribes are talking bad about each other. They're going to come back together and act as though nothing happened.

Please switch sides Rafe ( I mean that both ways)

See, it's not just editing...everyone thinks Stepheme is a whiner! Crowd chants: That is true!

A Rafe supporter: Rafe seems to be the only decent New nakum. Jamie is the biggest idiot. That's right Jamie,don't be nice to the peoe that will be deciding who gets the million. What a tribe of slobs, everyone complaining. Rafe had it right, "axis of evil"

I wonder if Rafe is from So. California. I came from there and had the hardest time getting the "likes" out of every sentence I spoke. It made it a little difficult to sound business-like for job interviews!

The only one who doesn't seem to be bashing the other tribe is Gary. Smart man. I expected more out of Danni, though.

A fan being interviewed outside the Reality TV Arena: If they start this picking off..I don't think Survivor will be interesting to watch any more. Are "reality shows" becoming the hated win. I really hope something changes. Lydia & Rafe need to realize that if they are left with Steph/Jamie/Judd they have absolutely no chance of getting to the F2.

Hopefully the former Yaxha can survive for a while.

I think Danni and Brandon are my two faves of possibly all the seasons. Of course that means they will most likely be booted next.

Maybe if the Yaxah tribes all gets booted then the new tribe loses the swimming pool

Is Bobby Jon's words that he doesn't think Nakum's fantasy of being the final six will come true. Is this prophetic?

Think of it as a tiara Danni

Danni broke the pot.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 8 - InGame Play By Play 3rd Period

Nice... a feast or immunity? Take your pick!

Don't you love how the all bitch about being starving and then badmouth the 4 that are going out to get food! Stupid group, laziness will be a factor when deciding the money winner

Anti-Judd fan in Row 18: I wish that pot would fall off and kill Judd (or at least make him leave the game)

I almost wish they hadn't have gotten a feast just because steph wanted one.

Jamie's such an ass! Crowd chanting: F U JAMIE!

Cindy speaks!

This is a voluntary immunity comp? You can sit out and eat or play and starve...

This is too cool.

Thats one wicked twist.

If the 6 don't compete, the old Yaxah knows what is going on.

Most of Nakum thinks they don't need immunity. Hopefully, they're wrong.

I thought for sure Judd would eat! HA!

wow, the cockiness of them all to choose the feast! boot!

The only problem with all the safe people not participating in the challenge is that it gives the others that much greater a chance.

Only 1 hour?

I hope one of those idiots that are eating gets voted out.

So to all of you eating I hope you like that big ol' target you just put on yourselves.

Didn't Steph chose pizza over immunity last time?

Gee, Bobby Jon looked really depressed while Jeff was explaining the challenge.

I guess Judd is smart enough to know they MIGHT boot him.

Steph, Rafe, Lydia, and Jamie choose food instead of competing for immunity.
Judd chose to participate. He was also shaking his head when he saw his alliance members choosing to eat.

Why do the competitors need to watch them eat the food??? I would be so annoyed.

This could piss off Cindy.

If I were feasting I'd probably me making so many "Mmmmm!" noises to annoy those in the challenge.

SHUT UP JAMIE! What an a**wipe!

Danni is out.

Rafe wants them to respect them. Like they would respect someone in a zoo.

Run, Rafe, Run!

WHY doesn't Rafe realize he'll be next right after the others are gone? He's stupid if he doesn't see it.

Rafe's tighter with them than Cindy or Lydia.

I don't think that's true at all. I think that they (meaning the evil trio) see all three of those people as expendable.

If I was in Jamie's group I would get rid of him just because he is such as jackass. You still have the lead in terms of numbers and I can't imagine anyone really liking this clown.

So far Rafe seems like the only half way decent one

Yay Gary!

Gary wins immunity. Were those looooong legs an advantage?

I think Bobby Jon's out...

I'm glad it was him instead of Judd, but I don't want Brandon to go.

Jamie has proved himself to be the biggest baby and ass in the bunch while Rafe has proved himself to be the most mature and nicest person in this game.

Maybe when they find the idol, a stage hand takes it until TC

Rafe will be the first one to jump ship in the coming days. That attack of conscience will do it. Jamie is a jerk

It will be Brandon....the 6 all agreed to the order. This way Stephenie can tell Bobby Jon she got him to the jury. Crowd doesn't like it and here come the hisses and boos.

Brandon supporter two rows up: This sucks!!!!!
I hate the Judd-Steph-Jaimie axis of evil! I really hope somehow things get shaken-up.

Yes, Judd seems to have wised up and kept his mouth shut, while Jamie keeps proving over and over and over again what a complete creep he is.

But the others all know who will be next..one of the Yaxah tribe. Unless one of the others jump and turn the game around.

Rafe if you save our Brandon I'd bet thousands of people would flood the CBS board to vote you their favorite.

Maybe Judd will go, huh? I'm clueless.

Even Judd thought Jamie was being a loudmouth.

Crumbling within the Nakum tribe. I like it!

If there isn't a fight this season I will be shocked. Crowd chanting: WE WANT BLOOD!

I loath Jamie... he's an ignorant rude a$$bag. Judd is giving him crap for his behavior too!

Judd even has to tell Jamie to shut up. That ought to tell Jamie something. Crowd chants: holy sh*t! And Judd gives Jamie a chair shot to the head!

Cmon Rafe. Do it. Do it. Do it. Come over to the light...

It is looking bad for Jamie. Keeping fingers crossed!

So we all agree Jamie was an a**, since even Judd thought so

A Rafe supporter from the upper deck: I think that Rafe is gonna form a strong bond with Danni.

I'm starting to like him more now.

I would love to see Bobby Jon kick Jamie's a$$

They are making it too obvious that it will be Jamie, so no way it will be him

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 8 - Inside Tribal Council

The birds fighting was too funny.

Can't stand BJ but also can't stand Jamie.
Who wants to bet before this episode is over, both will get into a fighting contest.

Jamie just keeps talking and talking and talking...Keep digging your grave Jamie.

Cripes, Jamie is digging himself deeper and deeper. He's a dope. Crowd chants: U F'ED UP!

If there's a fight tonight, Jamie could be disqualified. There's still hope!

I tell you what, if I KNEW that my number was up, I'd goad Jamie into hitting me before my torch was snuffed. Might as well take him with me.

Jamie is an IDIOT...just telling them Brandon is going home. I hope the others find out and vote him off.

I want Brandon to find the idol!

Mine instinct says Brandon finds the idol. :thumbsup:

It would be poetic justice if Brandon found the idol!

Gary is AMAZING amazing at manipulating.

A Rafe supporter: Rafe's smart enough to realize voting for Jamie is stupid. Axe Brandon, then target Jamie in 3 days.

They should be talking to Cindy and Lydia get them to switch

Is Lydia a total cipher? Has she no thoughts? They show nothing of her. Weird.

How come Lydia has a clean white T-shirt? That seems... wrong

I see what Jamie is mouthing...

Sounds like we could get another shouting match at TC tonight.

Cindy... WHO?????

Jeff is disgusted.

Wow...these guys are acting like teenaged girls.
SHUT UP!

Listening to Bobby John fight with Jamie is a lot like listening to that guy Boomhauer (or whatever his name is) on "King of the Hill" mutter to himself while he swills his beer.

I can understand why Jeff would even consider leaving the show, watching these 2 yr olds whinning.

Of course, Jamie doesn't really have a heart.

Even Jeff says nothing to Lydia. Geez!

I think Gary is still working on manipulating Rafe & Cindy. Who knows if Lydia is swinging one way or the other.

Didn't the person who won immunity have the chance to give it away if he/she wanted in past seasons?

Jamie's voting for Brandon? Not very smart...Crowd chants: DUMBASS!

A Bobby Jon supporter: I haven't much cared for Bobby Jon, but I am liking him more and more. We are united in our distain for Jamie.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 8 - The Verdict Is In

Brandon is out. And the crowd shows their displeasure by throwing garbage and they're chanting: BULLSH*T!

crap! so close for Jamie to go

Oh crap! What a bunch of morons.

A disgusted Brandon supporter: I don't even know if I want to finish watching. I like Danni, Bobby Jon, Brandon, and Cindy, but could really care less about seeing anyone else get ahead in this game, let alone win, especially since none of them deserve it. This season started so promising and it looks like it's going downhill really fast. These TC screaming matches are pathetic I'm sure Jeff is thinking the way Fairplay and Greg Buis disrespected TC is tame compared to these fools. I've watched every season of Survivor and some of the guys this season are the most entitled, egotistical, obnoxious, arrogant and cocky bunch this show has ever seen

Bad idea to send Brandon home.

I just love how people try to look so innocent after voting out someone, like they are so sorry.

So we have another week of the fighting between Bobby Jon and Jamie.

Maybe they will take swings at each other and both are gone next week.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 8 - Upon Further Review PostMortem

Gary may find himself on the chopping block next time. After all, he won immunity this time. On the other hand, with a comfortable margin ahead, Nakum could probably afford to eliminate Jamie.

Gary was very impressive tonight.

Between Bobby Jon and Jamie, I can't decide who's more annoying.

And don't forget Judd. The annoying ones will outnumber the decent ones if this keeps going...

Talk about being an egomaniac: Jamie snaps at everything. Bobby Jon is also goin' at it with Jamie.

Margaret is gone. Brandon is gone. Amy is gone. A lot of people are not liking this...the annoying survivors are outweighing the favorites.

[yankees27]

Ugh. Stupid annoying Nakums. I hope Danni, Bobby John, and Gary can somehow stay alive.

[RhodeyYankee2638]

After all, he won immunity this time. On the other hand, with a comfortable margin ahead, Nakum could probably afford to eliminate Jamie.

They still woould have a 5-4 lead if they voted him out tonight. Its probably gonna be what happened with Rob on All-Stars. They are going to follow him and self destruct around him

[Luvtino]

I am really bummed that Brandon is gone. He was vg competitor and a classy guy. Good news is unless they are the biggest asshats on the planet Jamie won't win. Can't see Judd going the whole way either although he behaved better tonight. I wonder how quickly that will change. Those in an alliance with them should vote them out sooner rather than later as both could win immunity when strength is a factor. The additional immunity idol is a nice twist unless someone you dislike finds it.

[yankeesAZ]

Well, well, well! Judd was the #1 heel, but Jamie took that spot by the horns. Unfortunately, it looks like a numbers game has broken out until we get down to six. They could boot Jamie next week and keep the numbers, but you may want to keep him around because no one on this earth would ever vote to give him $1M. Bad for TV, good if you're in the group of six.

Time for a Hell in a Cell match with thumbtacks and barbwire between Bobby Jon and Jamie.

Judd has his sledgehammer ready. I wonder what weapon of choice Jamie will use on Bobby Jon and vice versa.

[yankeesAZ]

These two have to have it out. I'm afraid Steph is making a heel turn too. She'll be throwing the sledgehammer into the ring.

[BroadwayBomber55]

These two have to have it out. I'm afraid Steph is making a heel turn too. She'll be throwing the sledgehammer into the ring.

Steph used to be a babyface when she was in Palau, but turned heel everytime she whines about losing, etc. She may throw a staple gun in the ring.

[yankeesAZ]

Steph used to be a babyface when she was in Palau, but turned heel everytime she whines about losing, etc.

True, but this week, she really was starting to show her colors.

Clearly Probst does not like how cocky Jamie is being. I haven't seen this kind of fire from Probst since Johny Fairplay dared to mess with the "integrity" of Survivor, who is now looking like a face compared to Jamie.

WWE should get them signed up! At least we could really buy into the feud.

Heck yeah. Let John Cena, Triple H, and the rest of the WWE Rosters sit back and relax at this so that they can learn from this.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 9 - InGame Play By Play 1st Half

Crowd filing inside the Reality TV Arena.

Everyone ready for 40 minutes of misleading stuff to make us think the obvious doesn't happen followed by the obvious happening anyway?

That sounds optimistic....40 minutes? Seems like so much less.

Less? I'd think more. I'm talking about the amount of time they throw misleading "hints" at us that someone might break alliance ranks OR find the idol, followed by a tribal council where everyone acts just as expected.

I hope someone finds that little statue.

I think someone does find the statue at some point but no way will they even hint at it being found. It would really catch everyone by surprise to have it pop up at TC

Jamie is upset because he has no class.

eta: It's breaking his heart.

Blobby John is lecturing people on "having no class"?

Kettle meet pot.

We need subtitles for this sequence too.

Is there more to Jamie & BJ's relationship than we have seen? I can't believe that jamie's feelings were hurt!

Jamie and Bobby Jon hate each other!

Rafe - "If Jamie doesn't learn from this experience.. I'll change up the game." Rafe you should have changed up the game last tribal council!!

Plus, one person changing doesn't do squat at this point. You need a whole sub-block of three. That's why all of this is almost a waste of time.

EDIT - Okay, technically two would work. But it would be messy.

Oh boo hoo, Jamie's widdle feewings are hurted. Like he hasn't been obnoxious to everyone else.

Those people lying around the stairs look like a sack of dud spuds!

Jamie being hurt? The whole thing looked phony, like he just realized he better straighten up or he won't get a jury vote. Fake

This Danni chick is skin and bones. OH MY. Crowd chanting: Let's go Danni.

Well except for those still noticable muscles in her ab region and her arms.

GAry - dont act like beating Detroit was such a big deal. Detroit Lions have sucked for as long as I can remember!

Shoot to eat!!

Wow, only one throw to try to win the challenge. Oh, it's the best, good, okay, crappy meals thing.

I wonder if last place's meal will be termites?

Nice throw by Judd.
B.J. blew it.

Not even sure how to work that thingy...

this is gary's challenge to win

And Lydia sucks.. lol... surprise surprise..

Yeah Lydia getting last was a no brainer Crowd chanting: WHAT?!

Lydia will eat dirt.
And Danni could use a donut.
Are we really looking at the same woman? Skinny, yes? But nobody who STILL has that much tone after weeks of Survivor is unhealthy. Plus, I think they ARE getting plenty of food on this edition. It's just CRAPPY food.

Gary the football player still not winning.

Stephanie beats the football dude.

Haha Blobby. Can't throw for @%&#.

Jamie sucking up to everyone by voluntarily taking the last place meal.

Jamie is being mr. Suck up now...

Interesting move by Jamie...

A Jamie fan in the skybox: WOW-Jamie just did a very cool thing.

A Bobby Jon fan in the skybox: Jamie is a freakin' idiot.

Bah. Juddhead wins the best food.

Jamie gives up his position and takes the worst meal? Damn.

How'd the pro quarterback come in 6th or 7th?

Very classy (and smart) move by Jamie.

A TV Color commentator covering Suvivor: I see it as faux-classy, not "real" classy. It's a last minute attempt to make sure he's not last in his alliance. He would have been much better to flip over to the other side if he could have somehow taken one more person with him. Which, of course, was kind of unlikely.

Judd gets to stuff his face with skeakies and lobbies. Looking at him he is sure to be a "stuffer".

Danni is thrilled at getting meat. With her particular build she's probably in protein starvation, 'tis true.

Open bar? Sure. Give starving people booze! Whoooo!

Classy, but ONLY IF he's actually sincere. If it's just a strategy, no, not classy, though still smart. Since he has been consistently snotty throughout the game, I'm guessing it's only strategy.

So, Jamie has woken up about what a jerk he's been and his head might be on a chopping block. Will this strategy avail him or will they still kick him ASAP? Crowd had their jaws dropped!

I wonder if Gary tanked it on purpose to not give away anything. Still not buying Jamie's story, to convinient for jury votes

I liked that move by Jamie. It's obviously strategic but still, he moved up a notch on the totem pole for me.

Well I'm glad Jamie seems to be growing from this whole experience. That was a fine move. I respect that. Sorry for judging so quick last time, Jamie!

Gary has never been that good at hiding it

Strictly strategy.... boy ain't got a sincere bone in his body!

Jamie is with the power group anyway, what was the point of giving up the good food? He kissed and made up with BJ, I figured that would be enough a calm everyone.
Will Jamie and BJ behave with each other?!

Thank the Good Lord, Danni gets a big plate of spaghetti, she needs it!

A Jamie fan in the front row: Wow, I'm really impressed with Jamie, going from the biggest ass to a guy with heart. I really believe that was sincere.

I like the gesture by Jamie. I still can't stand him tho.

Now Jamie wants everyone to throw up Oh Oh.

Looks like last place is going to end up being an apple or something.

Well, at least he got nuts...not live insects

Lydia got a fish. How fitting!

I just noticed a dog

Jamie gets squat from Judd.

And Jamie was not happy about that at all

Wow, look at Judd suck up to the two Survivor retreads!!!

Ok, that was absolutely mean of Judd. Karma will bite you boy! OH, WHAT A DIRTY TRICK!

A Survivor fan outside: Dammit...is Judd trying to make me like him?

Another Suvivor fan: He's a happy drunk!

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 9 - InGame Play By Play 2nd Half

Now he's screwing over everyone (but Steph).

Judd completely lies.. Interesting... Crowd chants: LIAR. LIAR. PANTS ON FIRE!

A Rafe fan: If this Judd character finds the idol I'll hate him even more than I hate him now.

Judd lied very well, very convincingly. Lots of practice?

Wow - such a liar. Is he always this arrogant?

A Cindy fan: Never liked Stephenie.. not one bit, and this just reinforces it.

Hopefully, someone else stumbles across it. But not Jamie or Bbbby Jon

A Danni fan: Yes! I'm wondering whatever did I like about Steph... ever... She's totally unlikeable ever since the second episode. They must have edited out all her nastiness when she was last on Survivor.

Steph sitting up there smirking about Judd's lying irks me too. I hope karma makes an appearance soon for both of them.

Birds of a feather...

OK, I liked Judd for about one minute there. I'm over it now.

Judd is such a bad liar! How could ANYONE hear his tone of voice and believe him?

So the last scene went...CUCKOO!

The way Bobby Jon was during the meal, trying to be respectful of the others with less food.... now THAT is class.

Gary looks really, really pissed.

Oh oh, Judd is drunk yet again

Doesn't Judd tonight?

Judd drunk- how fun. Oh give a drunk a cigar.

A Surivor fanatic in the upperdeck: Is it okay that I don't like anyone on this show? Not even Lydia...

Another Survivor fantatic in the upperdeck: I'm right there with you. Of course, I do still like Bobby Jon and Danni but I know they aren't long for the game anyway so I don't really even care about them anymore. This is the first Survivor where I've had such a dislike the cast.

A NFL TV Analyst who covers Survivor: As for Gary -- PFFFFT!!! What a party pooper! Listen Gary, you scrawnly little prevaricating piece of crap!!! Lighten up.

Puke boy better clean up his mess in the sleeping shelter

Why is he telling Steph about his clue?? What a dumbass!

A Survivor critic: Ugh. I don't mind if someone withholds info, but to be purposefully misleading to people who are fighting for their own survival? That's just mean. And now "Princess Stephenie" has another leg up on everyone else. WHy did they let her back on the show? She doesn't deserve the million, she doesn't deserve another shot!

Oh, and Jamie was trying to get people off his back with that whole "Taking The Worst Meal" thing. You can tell he was mad. Pass it on.

oh come on, if you were out there playing head to head with everyone, would any of you believe a clue someone shared? First thing I'd suspect is misdirection. Why would they help people they plan on voting out, to win immunity?

Why would Judd share it with anyone? He just gave someone else a chance to snatch it instead of him.

Listen to your gut this time Rafe.... Jamie can't be trusted.

So Jamie lies to the Axis of Evil that Gary's going to vote for him at the next TC.

No. He's not lying. He's STUPID. He misunderstood what Gary was offering.

Gee whiz, I hate the way Jamie is acting now worse than last week

So instead Steph should say "You just told me something that you didn't have to tell me, so I'm going to use it against you, making my trust worthless"?

No, Steph should have told him not to lie. He didn't have to lie, he could have just kept quiet. She's just as dirty and deceitful as he is.

Is it me or does it look like Steph got punched in the eye? It was all swollen and red

Rafe "I feel like I could tip over right now."

Does Lydia have a hairdresser hidden out there somewhere? Her hair always looks "done".

I've noticed the decently coiffed hair of all of them... shouldn't their hair be nasty and greasy by now? I don't remember any shampoo reward??

Oh look. It's time for the show to (again) pretend they will boot Jamie instead of one of the three outsiders!

So is the whole point with Jamie now that he's willfully and stupidly confused that Gary was offering to betray his own side rather than actually telling him that he'd (somehow) vote for him when it wouldn't do anything anyway?

Well, they need to try and make drama since it's obvious the outsiders are still on the outside. Of course I'd love for it to happen. But I know it won't

A Survivor TV analyst: If you gave Danni half a pig to carry, she'd weigh in at 100lbs even.

A diehard Survivor fan from IA: Is it just me, or do any of the rest of you guys find this group of Survivor contestants to be unusually bad? I can't seem to root for any of them, and none of them are exactly what I'd call "eye candy," and I just can't stand watching them interact with each other.

If it weren't for reading everyone's comments here at FORT I'd blow off the rest of this season, for sure.

Who will fall off the balance beam first? I'm betting Lydia, but it could be Rafe.

This balance thing seems like something Gary's good at.

Looks pretty tough to me.
I would look like a weeble and wobble and fall.

Another diehard Survivor being interviewed from a Reality TV newspaper about Survivor: I'm getting to that point. I don't even want to watch bad enough in hoping the Axis of Evil get their's in the end. This season took a huge nosedive after starting off so well.

The only two that I cared for have been sent home already, Brandon and Amy.

Go Gary!

Danni's tall, with muscle mass (which weighs more than fat anyway). I'd say she still could weigh as much as 115.

A Brandon fan in a skybox: I really couldn't care who wins, but I would especially be pissed if Jamie, Bobby Jon, Judd or Stephenie won

Crowd chanting: Go Rafe, go Rafe, go Rafe!!

Jamie and Rafe have to be the oddest final two in this event.

This balance line is not as hard as it looks, you have to keep the rope tensioned, like Jamie is doing.

Judd lied for no reason, there was no strategy in the lie. He didn't need to and that makes it worse for me when someone will lie for no reason. He could have kept quiet, no one expected him to share the clue.

You can't really believe she even considered telling him there was no point in lying, do you? She knows it means less people have a chance of finding it.

No strategy? Preventing other from finding the idol isn't a strategy? By telling them the exact opposite of what he found out he's lessening the chances of them searching in the right place.

Judd's a bad liar, but it was a "good" lie to TRY and tell. In the unlikely event someone actually found it, chances are they'd have to stay quiet about that fact anyway and he wouldn't be found out.

Damnit, it will either be Bobby Jon or Gary going home tonight

Well, Rafe's head dunk was rather amusing. Boo, Jamie wins immunity. Maybe someone will find the idol before Tribal Council.

Paranoid Jamie wins...and Rafe goes bobbing for apples.

That was hilarious when Rafe's head dipped into the water while he was upside down!!

Pendulum Rafe had me laughing for a while.

I give Rafe a 9.8 for his flipping efforts off the rope balance thing.

Judd may listen to Stephenie at times, but he's a grown man. He's gonna do what he wants. If he actually listened, maybe he'd have piped down at the TC where he was such an ass.

Gary is comparatively less annoying than the rest of these losers. I want him to find the idol and save himself.

Ugghh....Why does that miserable paranoid idiot Jamie get immunity? Maybe he'll have another "change of heart" and give away immunity, but then he'd be the biggest idiot ever :d'oh:

Of course I'm joking. Now Jamie is gonna go spreading his paranoia and we'll see another Yaxha go home.

Although, Rafe, Cindy, and Lydia have to know that Steph, Jamie, and Judd are just gonna turn on them so why not switch sides and burn them before they get burned?

No, I meant with the rest of the group. Judd has now told the entire tribe where to look? I wouldn't believe him. Maybe if he had taken me aside privately I might buy it but not if I was 1 of 7 in the group he told.

Gary's the target now? I thought Bobby Jon was?

Yes, but Gary is a physical threat. Bobby Jon is not so much.

A Steph fan: Three pounds of fish says Steph will not tell Gary that's he's being sent to sequesterville. She's just that kind of nice person.

Stephenie is a liar and a looks like she belongs in Fiddler on the Roof with that thing on her head.

Bad Steph. Fess up to grab a jury vote.

BJ, Steph will break alliances? Like she broke the alliance with you going with you all the way to the end?

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 9 - Inside Tribal Council

I will give Jamie credit for going last though.
After what happened last week.
Being the last to eat.
That took a lot of guts IMO.

'Cmon Gary find the idol!!!!

I want him to find it too. He's one of the least annoying survivors.

A Amy fan: I hate how it seems like Stephenie is invincible. This whole season, it seems like everything has been to set up to help Wonder Woman Stephenie win and more and more I have the feeling that will happen. I wish someone would knock her down cuz she already had her chance at the million. Jeff hated the Outcast idea on Pearl Islands and the AllStar season, so maybe he should've protested allowing MORE people a second chance? I dunno. It just doesn't seem right that Steph (and yes, Bobby Jon) get another chance when there're so many other people who won't.

Judd busted by Gary looking in the trees!

Gary Am Smart. Blobby Am Stoopid. They want to vote out the smarter person who is still a physical threat, I guess. Danni is seemingly the last choice of the three because I think a couple of the other side actually likes her (she's been shown hanging with Steph in a couple of shots I've noticed this week).

Ah. Gary is WATCHING Juddhead. That's how Judd blew his lie. If he'd just not gone and even searched this lie might have worked as a preventative thing.

That would be an awesome twist. As much as I don't like Gary, I would love to see the plans of the majority of these a$$es thwarted by a last-minute save of Gary.

Did Gary have it behind his back just then?

If Judd's found out, it's his head on the line. If he's not found out, Steph's got a better chance. So what's her benefit of telling him not to lie? What, she looks "honest" to the viewers at home looking for a reason to hate her?

they are the most honest survivors ever...

Come on, Jiffy...who's going to admit they lied?

Juddhead is such a bad liar. His lie about NOT lying is so transparent!

Crowd goin' crazy: Yes!!! Woo hoo!!!

I hope Gary tells everyone he found it in the tree. Gary found the idol.

Bye Bye Bobby Jon. At least you made jury.

Well played, Gary. They definitely have a right to be afraid of him.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 9 - The Verdict

BJ votes to evict Stephenie.
Stephenie votes to evict BJ, nice.

So, Gary can't be voted out until final 4?

Arggh, Stephenie first says it would be a miracle if Gary found it, then when he does have it, she says she knew it. Yeah right.

Well, hope springs eternal that Stephenie will get a surprise . . .

Oh yeah big set up! Bobby Jon votes for Steph. Maybe she'll go home!!!!

Yeah right.

A Gary fan outisde the Reality TV Arena: I hope Steph goes home.

I suppose it was best for Gary to use it.

Huh? Who voted for Cindy?

Cindy got a vote? Somebody is out of some loop!

Damn, it's all mixed up... Steph, Cindy, and Bobby Jon all getting votes

Buh Bye Bobby John!

Wow, first time this season where 3 people have recieved votes in a single TC.

Looks like my 2 choices are still there.

Bobby Jon's torch has been extinguished.

And the immunity Idol served little to no purpose in this game..

Huh? You don't think Gary would have been gone if he didn't have it? He ought to try emphasizing the threat of Stephenie now.

Bye bye Blobby!

Cindy? Who voted Cindy? And why? Was that either Danni or Gary maybe, as a way to keep a promise to not vote for Blobby?

A diehard Survivor fan from OR: Well, there goes any hope I had left in this season. Everyone left is either too unlikeable or too boring. I don't even like Danni enough to keep watching. And I'll be in the minority by saying I really wish Gary had gone. I wish he had gone weeks ago.

Note to Burnett: next season, leave the former Survivor's at home and give the newbie's a chance.

Now Gary is in worse shape.

Now he will be suspect. But it was his best shot to use it now.

What, no smirk from Steph?

That was a nice exit by Bobby Jon. Cute brother, too!

It will be interesting to watch Judd trying to convince Gary he didn't lie...twice.

I don't think so. I think that Cindy vote came from one of the "three", as a way to semi-betray their side without breaking a voting promise.

Now Gary's got one more way into the power base. He can fill their heads with the fact Judd lied. Of course, Gary's been lying all along, but he seems likeable enough that nobody cares.

Did Bobby Jon's brother have on a hat or was that his hair?

Gary keeps the idol, right, till final four?

No. He just used it. It's no longer any good.

Gary can so turn the lie Judd told about the idol being on the ground against Judd next week. How pissed would all of them (but Steph) be to find that out? I wouldn't doubt if that's what Gary does

I guess I misunderstood about the immunity idol. I thought whomever found it was safe until the final 4. I guess they meant they could use it any time up to the final 4.

I can't wait to see who voted for Cindy. That's just weird to me.

I would so love for Rafe, Cindy, and Lydia to jump ship and go with Danni and Gary. See, if they stay with Judd, Jamie, and Princess Stephenie, they're just gonna get picked off. But if they go with Gary and Danni, they get rid of the that trifecta, then they break off and vote out Gary and Danni, and they clean up.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 9 - After the Game Report

Jamie doin' a class act and then Jamie being Jamie...all whiny and jerky.

BJ was eliminated, but it is time for the newbies to gain some exposure.

Judd is now a egomaniac heel with his lying.

Gary found the idol, but used it too early. Should've kept it until the final four, but who knows.

I want to see Gary or Danni win. If not, Cindy will win it.

[yankeesAZ]

Week 9 - After the Game Report

Jamie doin' a class act and then Jamie being Jamie...all whiny and jerky.

Gary found the idol, but used it too early. Should've kept it until the final four, but who knows.

I want to see Gary or Danni win. If not, Cindy will win it.

Gary had to use the Idol. He was as good as gone and he knew it. If he had any whiff of it being Bobby Jon, he would have saved it for later. Gary is a really good player. He has the coolness of Brian in the Thailand season, but the numbers are still against him. He has to call out Judd to help save his own ass or does he make a deal with Judd?

I did see Gary hiding it behind his back. It was the "Statue of Liberty" playcall! A great PA fake! I guess when you have had 9-10 guys on defense coming into to kill you, you have to be calm.

[yankees27]

I hope that somehow Gary & Danni can execute a power switch. I think Cindy would be easy to switch since she seems to know that she's last in the pecking order in her alliance. Rafe might switch to get rid of the "Axis of Evil." Lydia seems to idealize Steph so much that she'll be hard to switch. That's one of the things I don't like about bringing back former players, the new survivors already have opinions about them.

Lydia is flying way under the radar. If she somehow makes the final two she deserves the win because everyone else was dumb enough to keep her around when she had no business going that far to start with.

[Luvtino]

My guess is some start jumping ship from their alliance this week. There are 8 left and the alliance of 6 has to know that won't assure them a place in the final 4. It could go boys versus girls as that would be 4-4, but I am doubtful that will happen which means it probably will.

Cindy and Rafe could team up with Danni and Gary. That seems the most obvious, but there are always some surprises late in the game. Lydia could also jump ship. Steph's number should be up soon as I can't see them letting a player who has been there before win. And if they don't get rid of the strong men soon that could hurt them during the finals.

They really need to strategize and make decisions that won't hurt them with the jury. Jamie and Judd are sadly two that could help someone win the game so they could stay till the end especially if they don't go very soon.

I miss Brandon.

[boo_427]

Right before they went to tribal council, it showed Gary and he his right hand tucked behind his back. I told the folks I was watching with that he had the idol and they didn't believe me.

[yankees27]

Gary and Danni should tell Rafe, Lydia, and Cindy that there's no way they get to the final two if they don't take out the other three. Judd and Jamie are turning themselves into the perfect loud mouth final two goats. Stephanie would take one of them, and they would take the other one.

[Sam18]

Someone just please get rid of Judd and or Stephanie.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 10 - InGame Play By Play 1st Period

Crowd filing inside the Reality TV Arena...

Will we see yet another week where the obvious happens by the end or will something actually interesting happen? (in other words, someone besides Gary or Danni going home)

No matter what, there will be lots of misleading editing!

Time to hate on Judd again.

Time to hate on Judd and Jamie!

Will Lydia speak this episode?? I hope so!

Or Cindy!

And will Danni have any interview segments?

Does David Spade do anything OTHER than Capitol One commercials anymore?

Meanwhile, we go to Survivor Nightvision. Jamie interviews on how "shady" Gary is. Which he might be, but pot... meet kettle.

I love those ants!

Blond chick upset with Jamie because he is upset that Gary supposedly voted for blond chick and now he's making Gary upset so that he won't be upset by himself.

Jamie is the WORST SURVIVOR EVER! No judgment. None. He makes Judd look calm and stable in comparison! Crowd chanting: a****le towards Jamie.

Is Jamie always a snotful in the evening?

Jamie continues to be nutso.

Is that tubetop now the required uniform?

That is a looooooooooooot of corn!

Folgers coffee commercial disguised as a reward challenge. Clever!

Folgers coffee! The official coffee of all people who hang out in reality jungles!

How did Stephenie manage to get teamed with Danni rather than Lydia or Cindy?

Ha! Rafe looks hilarious in half white half mud!

Whoever wins this, Gary and Danni need to use it as an opportunity to stir the pot.

Judd looks like Fred Flinstone with a toothache with that buff wrapped around his face.

A Survivor fan in the upperdeck all wired for sound: Cindy and Lydia vs. Steph and Danni? Come on. Who came up with THAT division?

Yeah - mudwrestling. Uh Huh -this one's for the guys. Crowd chanting: TNA! TNA! TNA!

Lydia's ass being dragged along again.

A Lydia fan: Ugh, I guess we've now seen why Lydia sits so many challenges out.

Lydia is a hindrance.

Those pots look heavy.

I can see the mud slowing her down but she can't climb over!

Danni, Steph, Gary and Judd win.
No big surprise there. Crowd chanting: LET'S GO GARY! LET'S GO DANNI!

Jaime - shut the F up. Looks like Judd turned face at the moment. Jamie is the heel.

Another Lydia fan: I feel sorry for Lydia. My legs are super short, too, and it'd take alllllll kinds of energy and strength to move through mud that deep.

Poor Lydia, I think her short legs hindered her in this challenge

Jamie's quite attractive, shame he's so stupid and annoying.

A Survivor insider from the Reality TV bar: Hmmm. Let me think. Steph, Danni, Gary and Judd? What does this group have in common?

They are all of the serious players, I think.

Maybe this teaming was an attempt by the producers to get this group away from the others to see if alliances could be shook up.

Awww, I wish Rafe was going!

funny, the strong 4 leaving the weaker 4 behind to plan. Hmmmm

It could go either way. Except there's more for Gary and Danni to lose than anyone on the "weak" team--at least in the short term. In the long term? Yeah, maybe people like Lydia and Cindy realize they are deadwood waiting. Although on the flip side, deadwood is often taken to the final 3 to try and give an advantage to the strong person.

Wow. They just showed the first Danni interview I can remember seeing on this show!

The strong 4 are more likely to plan. They're right... Gary never does stop playing the game, and it's between him and Danni for whose neck's on the line. It would be very simple to sway them away from Jamie. I don't think it's the right time to jump myself, but they've gotta jump from Jamie eventually.

I wonder if the mud is stinky as well as sticky.

Geez, I bet Lydia and Cindy and Rafe are in for a tongue lashing from Jamie. What a maroon -- he wants the women to keep expending effort so they won't be quitters, even after Jeff has declared the other team the winners.

A Cindy fan: The 4 left behind won't plan, Jamie will complain/start an argument.
But seriously, I am sorry to say this, but Lydia is worthless in challenges (and I like her)

The only pot stirring Danni and Gary can do with Judd and Steph is to target Jamie. Judd and Steph are too tight and plan on taking each other to F2. No way will they lets G & D get a chance to change the plan

Jamie is such a tool. Why is this guy so tightly wound?

A Survivor fan in the front row: While watching the opening credits, I still cannot remember who Brianna was/is

Last week Stephenie didn't like Gary/Danni, how have the tides changed

Why's the streaker always a fat guy?

Ack! My eyes! Nekkid Judd in the shower...Crowd chanting: holy sh*t!

This is an awesome reward!

[Archer1979]

That mud challenge should be repeated for every version of Survivor from here on in.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 10 - InGame Play By Play 2nd Period

Hmmm... the girls look at naked Judd with smiles on their faces.

Perhaps Judd isn't man enough to overcome cold water?

I KNEW there was a Steph/Danni mutual admiration society. They've implied it before but this is the first time they've allowed it to be on camera.

But it may not make any real difference to the alliances.

And yes, the weak-ies ARE scheming. In circles!

Lydia is not very smart. She reminded them she is the reason they lost.

Too bad Lydia and Rafe couldn't be there. I like those two. Can't STAND Jaime!! Crowd chanting: JAMIE SUCKS! JAMIE SUCKS!

Geez Stephenie, pat yourself on the back. Sez she and Danni are soooo similiar, then says she is a very cool chick.

Jamie begins some plot. Does it make sense? Who knows? Ha, Rafe doesn't think it makes sense either. Yes, Jamie is totally paranoid!

AHHH! Memories of Richard Hatch...as a streaker!

To be honest, it most more her reacting to Jamie and his paranoia.

Ah... Gary plays the "strong pride" play. Alls he can do, he tells us.

Judd has a heart?

If Gary would work this hard on Rafe/Cindy/Lydia, he could get to the f2 easily

A Gary fan outside the Reality TV Arena: Oh I HATE to say this, but it seems that Judd has the best grasp on his winning stategy.

Only a strategy to GET to the F4. If he's up against someone like Lydia in the end, he probably loses.

He'd probably lose going up against anybody but Steph.

A Judd fan: ITA with this. He's actually growing on me too. What a difference a few weeks make. Is Judd turning face?

He does. As much as an totaly ass he's made of himself, everyone likes him. He hasn't overtly done anything (they) view as back stab or worth turning on him

Why's the streaker always a fat guy...and hairy?

Steph, Judd, Gary, and Danni. That would be one unstoppable force.

Steph wanted Gary and Danni gone, but she never disliked them.

So what is being blocked out on the tapes?

The best part of getting up is NOT Folgers in your cup. Nope. Not at all.

Danni, after weeks of no voice overs, turns into a living Folgers commercial this week.

I love Danni's dogs. So cute. Crowd chanting: Awwwwww!

It's like the Fabreze Family Moments... except we'll wind up getting 5 of them tonight.

A Danni fan: I agree, Danni's 'puppies' both look well fed, IfyaknowwhatImean...

Tears are jerked. In an effort to fool us into thinking that possibly Steph and Juddhead might NOT vote for Danni and Gary because they bonded over Folgers coffee and sappy videotapes.

Misleading Editing = It's Deja Vu all over again.

Why does Juddhead tell Jamie he slept on the floor?

C'mon...that was a great reward from dinner to breakfast to the video

better than Pringles and Mai Tais..........

Maybe Rafe will borrow some of Steph's balls and tell the others about Jamie's offer

Gary will probably get sent to the Survivor dumping ground if he doesn't win immunity.

Another Survivor insider: Wow. This week we get VOs/interviews from Danni AND Cindy! How strange.

I'm thinking still that Gary wins IC and Danni goes home. Much as I'd hate that.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 10 - InGame Play By Play 3rd Period

We have done this challenge before

Flipping now could improve their final 4 odds, but it won't improve their odds of actually winning. Gary and Danni would be the new power players with the best chance of winning.

Judd doesn't care if he wins IC because he knows he is not going home

Judd is big, that works against him and Lydia is too small, which is also a disadvantage

Don't lie Judd you are not even trying. Looks like Judd is turning heel again.

Rafe's actually been surprisingly competent lately.

Rafe is the first to complete, then Jamie. Jamie would be smart to realize that Rafe is a threat. However, I doubt Jamie is smart.

Ok. By bye Gar!

I think this challenge would be fun.

Well so much for Gary winning Immunity tonight

This looks pretty hard...

None of the people fighting for immunity were in any danger in the first place. Probably not even Jamie. This is lame. Crowd chanting: BORING! BORING!

Wow, Cindy comes in with a burst of speed.

Rafe wins and he is probably the safest one there

Rafe... .someone that didn't need it... wins immunity. Gary needed that immunity idol, but failed to deliver.

A Rafe fan in the Reality TV bar: Go Rafe!

Good! Jamie didn't get immunity. Now all we need is to vote him off.
I can't stand him!

Ya think maybe Steph and Judd are noticing that Rafe is winning a lot? That would bode ill for him the next time he DOESN'T win.

I can't see anyone but Gary going now. Unless there's been the mother of all edits, the temptation for Steph and Judd to flip was momentary at most--never very real.

Jamie better hope Rafe doesn't spill the beans to Steph about his disloyalty.

Danni/Gary need to work HARD on Rafe/Lydia/Cindy. Crowd goin' restless to convince Rafe, Lydia, and Cindy to vote off Jamie.

They need to work hard on someone. Planting a seed isn't gonna do it. They need to blow some doors down.

A Survivor TV Analyst: Why didn't gary bring up the immunity idol lie? He hardly said 2 words. He should have let Rafe, Jamie and Lydia know he lied to his own alliance.

Rafe thinks Jamie has gone off the deep end, doesn't like his comments to anyone, so maybe he will be able to turn the others. (crossing fingers)

I guess it's another week, another obvious result now. Unless Jamie gets knocked off.

Ooooh, there's the kiss of death... Judd saying Jamie isn't going anywhere tonight.

Please let that be a beautiful case of editing.

Well Jamie then you need to keep your mouth shut if you want the "plan" to continue.

Jamie needs to stop talking.

Jamie is backtalking Steph so much, that might backfire on him.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 10 - Inside Tribal Council

Jamie is backtalking Steph so much, that might backfire on him.

But... probably not. At least THIS week.

So how many weeks in a row will we get the "but they might toss Jamie because he's an ass" plot? Three? Four?

Rafe: "I've got to play mancala with Jamie every. single. day." Crowd chanting: WHAT?!

Yes, God forbid someone would say no to Jamie...

The way Jamie's being edited, he looks like the over confident thinks he has it in the bag one that will be taking the walk of shame tonight. It's happened in Survivor before, and while I think MB has changed some of his editing techniques, here's hoping this is one editing trick he still keeps the same.

Nope. He looks like the "totally unstable one they grumble about but don't vote out".

But we shall see.

That too. I just don't want it to be Danni. She's the only reason that I'm still watching. If she goes, I have no one to root for

Jamie is starting to remind me of Anthony Perkins in Psycho!!

Lydia gets a confessional!

A Stephenie fan in the skybox seats: It is a good thing Stephenie is on this season, because most would not know how to wipe their butts. For once think for yourselves.

I think Steph is lying, she won't vote out Jamie.

Bobby Jon looking cute tonight!

Geesh, Stephenie thinks GARY is a smooth operator! What did she see that we didn't?

A die-hard Gary fan in the upperdeck: I can only imagine how Jamie will behave if he is voted off tonight. Lord sparks will probably fly.

Bobby Jon and Jamie alone in the jury house together

That would be awesome to see Jamie go. Could we get so lucky!

Blobby John almost has a Beatles hair cut!

Or the 'Creepy parent-shooting cradle-robbing 18-year old sheepdog' haircut.

Ah... we start with the obvious "did you bond" b.s. Now we know it meant nothing, since Probst brought it up so quickly.

A rabid Survivor peanut vendor: I don't get this - at the reward they got to know each other? What the hell have they been doing on the stinkin island all of these weeks??

What's with the pearly whites on everybody? Do they have access to professional teeth whitening in the jungle? Maybe it's the guy who comes by daily to do Lydia's hair, he bring a dentist with him...

Why does Jamie always look drunk to me?

It is down to who I don't want to win. No one I'm hoping wins, just those I don't want to win. Like Jamie, Judd, and Stephenie.

Well I'm not so sure it will be Jamie.

Okay, that is weird, that they showed both Jamie and Judd's vote for Gary. I bet it won't be Gary going . . . okay, I hope, if it means Jamie goes bye-bye and Judd gets a smack in the face!

I remember now Rafe/Lydia/Steph did not discuss the voting with Judd, will this break his alliance with them if Jamie leaves

[BroadwayBomber55]

Week 10 - The Tribe has the Verdict

Another Stephenie fan: I don't want Lydia, Gary or Rafe to win either.

Yes!!! Crowd goin' crazy and chanting: holy sh*t! That was freaking insane!

The look on Judd's face is PRICELESS

Not good for Judd. So much for being second in command.

Yes, take a hike dude!

Oh, my!

GET THE F OUT JAMIE! Yeah! Psycho-boy is gone!

So where does this leave Judd? He obviously didn't know.

I think he did. He is probably playing for his jury vote.

Hee hee, there goes Jamie and Judd is looking distinctly nervous. Gary is trying to conceal his glee.

The crowd is goin' absolutely nuts! OH MAN, DID YOU SEE THAT?! I MEAN, THAT WAS BRUTAL! THAT WAS BRUTAL!

JAMIE SAYS "HE WAS BLINDSIDED!"

"BLINDSIDED! Now THAT'S how you vote someone out!" Jaime's departing words as his torch is snuffed

I hope that wasn't the most colorful exit in survivor history that was advertised early this season.

Hot damn. I figured once they exposed Jamie and Judd's votes that it would turn out that way. Good deal.

What's goin' through Judd's mind right now? He thought he had the strategy to beat Gary and Danni.

Jamie says.....Blindsided...NICE! Now that's how you vote someone out!!

Thank you Lydia for choosing to dump Jamie!!! And Judd looks like the person the most thrown out of the loop.

Nutbag Jamie voted out...and says he was blindsided. Crowd chanting: F U JAMIE!

They are all wide-eyed waiting for Jamie to reappear in a Postal uniform with a machine gun...

So who didn't tell Judd the plan?

It will be interesting to see who Steph voted for.

Nonetheless, Gary and Danni are probably STILL fodder for the next few episodes.

Judd boy is out of the loop!!

Another die-hard Survivor fan in the luxury suite: See, even Probst is hoping this shake up will last. I doubt it will. I guarantee next week we'll see either Gary or Danni going The spoilers had the wrong winner for immunity, so I was worried they were going to be wrong about the boot (of all weeks).

You know Steph voted for Jamie to go. If she had voted for Gary to go they would have exposed her vote.... the suspenseful 3-3 tie!

Any word on whether or not Rafe has gotten a bodyguard?

Ha! Judd looks:



pWN8D!

What the hell is Mancala or whatever it is they were playing?
If I were Steph, Rafe or Lydia I wouldn't dare to sleep that night. Who knows what crazy things Jamie might do, I bet he goes AWOL in the Guatemalan jungle and starts killing the rest of the survivors one by one.

Next Week on Survivor:

The next week scenes should be interesting to watch

I think Jeff was referring to them during their final words, but maybe not. Now that Judd knows he might be screwed, I don't see him having a colorful exit. Now maybe Rafe, Gary, or Cindy...

I knew Judd would explode next week.

Next time on Survivor: Judd is pissed off. Stephanie pontificates. Everybody fights. Cool!

Jamie took Lydia so far???

Hah! Steph WAS in on it.

Juddhead will freak.

[S2]

Jamie to Rafe "I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna seriously murder you."

Classic.

And that was before Rafe voted him out.

Week 10 - After the Game Post-Mortem

holy toledo. Jamie is the ultimate heel and he's outta here! His crybaby rants were so annoying.

What's goin' through the mind of Judd right now? He thought he had his plan worked out.

Next week, it will be total chaos!

[SI Baseballman]

Holy crap that was a great episode.

I was jumping in the air and doing fistpumps once the third Jamie vote was read.

Lydia redeemed herself in my eyes after deciding to turn on Jamie instead of insisiting on staying with the alliance and voting Gary.

I can't wait for that major Judd meltdown at the start of next week's ep.

I might also have to watch Jamie on Survivor Live tomorrow for pure entertainment value.

I think Gary will somehow manage to win his way to the Final 4. Wouldn't be surprised if Lydia and then Judd are the next 2 out.

[yankees27]

Oh man, that was fun! Judd is going to be hell in camp. He had quite the line about Gary, "He's a man's man, man!" I think Jamie went nuts in out there.

[BroadwayBomber55]

We better have the tables, chains, chairs, ladders, barb-wire, thumbtacks, lighting fluid, and matches ready because we're in for a brouhahahaha next week.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Jamie to Rafe "I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna seriously murder you."

Classic.

And that was before Rafe voted him out.

What will Jamie kill Rafe with? A Machete? A Machine Gun?

[BroadwayBomber55]

Ha! Judd looks:



pWN8D!

YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT! Judd's plan backfired!

[Archer1979]

What will Jamie kill Rafe with? A Machete? A Machine Gun?

Rafe's own dismembered arm.

This is everything we would thought it will be and more.

Judd can't believe it when Jamie was voted out. He's thinkin': "What I gotta do? What else can I do to earn some respect around here?"

[Luvtino]

I missed most of this one but happy to see crazy Jamie go home. Judd looked shocked. That was the best as he thinks he is so high and mighty.

What happened with Jamie and Rafe?! I missed that part. I can't imagine that they would let Steph make it to the finals, but ya never know on this show.
