Then they should have gotten rid of Kenny or Crystal. Personally, I don't think it is that important to keep the "stronger" players around. They usually are a big disappointment as far as their stamina and capablilty. Seriously, look at Crystal. She is an Olympic Gold Medalist in track for gosh sacks. But she sucks in the challenges. I would take Bob or Randy or even Kelly over Crystal. Plus, she is probably eating a ton of food. We see it every season. These big, athletic guys(and girls) go without food for a few days and they just crumble and are worthless. You want to get rid of the "stronger" players before they get to individual immunity anyway.

My thoughts exactly! When I first saw that they had a former Olympic athlete on this season, I figured her body would be the first to give out - she's used to eating right, prob. lots of protein, healthy stuff. To go 39 days eating rice and whatever they can scrounge up will take a toll on "healthy" types sooner than those of us "regular" folks who don't eat right to begin with.

I was really surprised to see GC actually DO something during the immunity challenge! Looks like Kelly, Kenny and Crystal took over his laziness!

Way to go on that challenge, Randy! I don't like him too much (something about his beady eyes....), but he really came through for them.

I'm still trying to figure out what I think about Randy. Sometimes I do like him and sometimes I just wish he would shut up. He did good in the challenge though and they needed that.

 

[4greatboys]

Whoa! That first one is really graphic.

Okay I had several really bad one liners go through my head, lol.

Ahhhhh! I fell asleep during the last 5 minutes of the show! Who got voted out?

Thanks!

 

[Mom2Ashli]

Jackie was voted out last night.

Speaking of underwear I noticed a couple of girls wearing the same kind of boxer mens underwear. Anyone else notice that?

I noticed that and figured they probably are using the guys underware now they have bathing suits....

I laughed when Randy said he'd do his best in the challenge despite hating each and every one of his teammates!

Me too I didn't like him at first, but he's growing on me. I can't stand G.C. I think he is absolutely worthless. I loved how he, Crystal, and Ken were scheming to bring Kelly into their alliance - I guess because only Kelly could make any of them look better.

OK, I definitely saw it that time

Messing with the wildlife would be illegal or immoral, or both. I'm not concerned about the producers doing anything like that, though; I personally wouldn't take anything I see, even on the show itself, as indication of what really happened. Survivor is renown for its very crafty editing to make things look a certain way.

I choose to live in my own little Survivor fantasy world, it's more fun that way. Thank you for sharing.

 

[Yardbird]

Wow that was a stupid decision. They should be voting according to who is going to help them win challenges and that definately is not Kelly.

I agree that it wasn't a smart choice. I was surprised that it wasn't Kelly.

Since the players with this season's game seeming to be so lackluster, I wonder if it's because the calaber of people applying has gone down. I know that in the past they chose people that had really oddball videos but turned out to be duds. Who'd have thought that the whole group would turn out to be duds?

I was reading the other day that despite thousands of applications - the majority of the contestants are "Mactors" not sure what a Mactor is other than some sort of actor. The article stated that last season or the season before (I don't remember) with the exception of 1 player was all Mactors.

Me thinks that maybe, they need to stop "hiring" people and go back to using the run of the mill ordinary folks!

1. mactor
short for "model-actor" - the people who live in Los Angeles trying to make it as a model-actor-whatever and appear on many reality tv shows...

 

[shirleyb]

My DH has applied twice, but never heard a word from them.

Thanks I wasn't sure what the word meant. I even read that Yau was a Mactor.......hummmm, I wonder about Susan the Lunch Lady

My uncle sent in a video a year or so ago. He would definately be a character on the program if they would just pick him. He's had a lot of different experiences, one of which is sailing around the world in a 42' sail boat.
