Official Survivor China Thread~~~ **Spoilers Inside**

Hey folks, I'm joining in here.

So last nights episode was interesting. I love how they showed us Shanghai and then the temple and then the beautiful scenery.:love: China is a beautiful country.

When they were first introducing the contestants I yelled out Holy cow, Is that a mullet!:lmao: I have never actually seen anybody with one before. I didn't realize that people still used that hairstyle.:scared:

The temple ceremony was very interesting. I wanted to smack the NYC girl (Courtney I believe) she is a capital B if you catch my drift. She was so disrespectful at least the Christian Radio Host tried to go along with it and when she realized that she couldn't go along with it she quietly got up and left instead of flopping around and rolling her eyes like Courtney.

When Jeff told them they only had the clothes on their back and they were all shocked and the one girl said "But I don't have a bra" I rolled my eyes. Come on people, this happens EVERY single season, get with the program.

I also noticed that they really enjoyed showing us shots of Ashley's ****s. We get it she has enormous (probably fake) ****s, we don't need to see them every 5 seconds.

The only two characters I really disliked were Courtney and the Poker guy. Courtney for obvious reasons and the Poker guy just seemed self important when he was confronting the flight attendant about lying about his job. Joked on him I guess.

I thought the scene with James and Leslie was really sweet when she told him to be himself and then told him that he should just ask people about themselves as people always like to talk about themselves.:lmao: I hope that the two of them go far.

Overall I was not too disappointed with who got kicked off. Would have preferred if it was the other team and they had kicked off Courtney.

Yeah, I didn't get that part, why would he come right out, saying he thinks he was lying about being a flight attnedant. Very odd!
 
I pick James to go all the way. He has a ways to go socially, but I think he will get it in the end. Leslie was nice to pull him aside and talk to him. Of course, a few seasons back I also picked that singing lady (remember her?!?!? :rotfl2: ) to go all the way, but she got voted out first! I really thought she could have been a funny element to the show, seeing how she bugged people with her nonstop singing.

BTW, when Chicken burst out and swore when he got voted out, not only did my entire family jump from being startled, so did the two contestants sitting next to him! (Don't know their names yet . . . that wrestler and that girl that wore the purple dress). They both jumped up and their faces were totally priceless! We rewound it and played that same part in slow motion over and over - their faces were hilarious!!!!!! :lmao: If you still have last night's show taped, go back and watch that part in slow motion (if you have DVR, just press "Play" twice and slow motion should go) and watch their faces when Chicken screams. We laughed even harder than we did last season when Yoa Man said "I got strengths now to carry the flag!" :rotfl2:
 
I have a question about Chicken. Big Tom was also from VA, correct? I have spent time in VA, I did not notice the deep south accent. VA is not really a southern state, so to have two people come from VA with such an accent that you can't really understand what they are saying, what part of VA is this????

VA is a long state and it is most definitely Southern, especially the western end. Northern VA (DC area) is not as southern as the rest of the state. Once you get to Lynchburg-Roanoke we are absolutely southern.

Chicken and Big Tom are both from Smyth Co. VA. It is not very far from the TN line. I live pretty close to that area in the small corner of VA that is bordered by KY and WVa. The "accent" that you hear from Chicken and Big Tom is Southern Appalachian.

Ok joining in also. I won't comment much cause it takes me 3 episodes to really get to know the players. I felt bad for Chicken leaving.

The shots they took for the opening were beautiful.

That is so very cool! Thanks for sharing the pic with us---you have some very nice friends to have done this for you!
 
subscribing. :)

I really enjoyed the show. I have high hopes for this season (of course, I as one of about 15 people nation-wide who was actually kind of digging Pirate Master...seems I'm not too difficult to please :lmao: )

I really like James and hope he goes far. They can't get the doofy NY waitress off there fast enough to make me happy. What a jerk.

Hey everybody! I heard that there were some James fans over here!!!!
Can I just say OH - MY - GOSH!!!!!!! PLEASE don't let that man get voted out soon, and PLEASE don't let him turn out to be a jerk! I havent seen eye candy like that in LONG time! :blush: :bitelip: :faint:
 
I am happy many of you are rooting for James. I have him in our office pool. When I saw him as the lead in the immunity challenge, I thought oh-oh, I'm in trouble, I didn't think he would be so agile being soooooooo muscular, but he was very agile. :yay:
 
James is beautiful! :love:

We've watched most of the Survivor seasons, save one or two. This looks like a good one!

Cool basket, Jenny! Thanks for sharing the pic.
 
Count me in as a James fan also! Wow!! And he seems nice. I'll enjoy watching him on the show.

I told my DH that Chicken better watch his attitude or they'll vote him out. I guess I was right. I understand he wanted them to listen to him, but he went about it the wrong way imo.
 
Never noticed the shoes....[/QUOTE]

They got shoes for the immunity challenge and did not have to give them back.

Yeah, but, they showed some of the ladies wearing their sneakers around camp before the immunity challenge was shown.

Yes they probably did. I think they tend to do that alot on reality shows.

And by the way . . .
If there are any Single Male DISers over 30 who look anything like James, PM ME!!!!
 
Yeah, Aprilgail2, I'd say you ARE the only one that James does nothing for! Hubba, hubba! Man, he could sit around in his boxers at MY camp all day! He seems like a nice guy, too--if you go for the strong, silent type!:love:

I didn't notice that about the shoes--probably just editing. In any event, I could see where shoes would be particularly important--a bra, not so much.
