Oh PLEASE not another season with Coach

 

[happygirl]

I really like Cherie

 

[sPaRkLeSpAz]

I'M SO EXCITED

I really like Sugar, JT, and Amanda. OH and James. And I was rooting for Russel until he acted all grumpy the night of the finale. I can't wait until this season starts!

But I could care less about Boston Rob, sorry but I found him to be truely annoying.

I'm right there with you. DH and I can't stand him. The first time he says "AmBUH" I think my head is going to explode.

Do you think Elisabeth Hasselbeck will be on????

No way would she ever go back on Survivor. She's got a job...and a good one. And 3 young children. She talked in the past about how her hair was falling out afterwards and other physical problems. Sounded to me like she wouldn't do it again even without The View.

I'm wondering if some villains will become heroes and some heroes will become villains.

B/c lets be honest--can all the bad guys remain bad with each other and all the good guys remain good?

I'm not sure I would count on that.

Very good point. I bet that's The Survivor season experiment (like when they made such a big deal about the "first impressions" season).

That's exactly what happened to me! I went to a web site just to see the cast list for next season, when I suddenly realized that someone had put comments next to each of the player's names, indicated how they had done in the game! I closed that window out like it had spiders coming out of it.

Ooooo, I hate when that happens! I hope we have a thread where everyone agrees, from the beginning, not to post spoilers. I've been on threads before where people were so gleeful to have BIG NEWS that they wanted to share that they changed the rules in the middle of the game.

She is absolutely the funniest survivor ever. Some of the stuff she says in the confessionals is so funny, but so on point. I hope she stays around for a long time just for that reason.

Anyone think that Boston Rob is gonna be voted off very, very, very early? He's already done extremely well on 2 seasons, was on amazing race, I'm guessing that these players have had just about enough of him.

Nope. Because if there is one thing all the survivors all stars have in common is a HUGE EGO and a desire to be on TV. Getting a lot of screen time and developing their "brand" can be just as important as winning the game. Boston Rob is naturally going to get a lot of screen time, so it makes sense to align with him. He is great at the strategy part of the game and he is charismatic enough and popular enough to get a TON of screen time. By aligning with him you are guaranteeing a lot of screen time for yourself as well as the potential to go fairly far in the game strategy wise. Look at Mick and Natalie on this last season...both were pretty boring players but got a lot of screen time due to Russell. It does't make sense to eliminate him until after a merge.

I hope not, I really like Rob.

I don't think too early, but I wouldn't be shocked if he didn't make the jury. Usually the earliest people to go home are people who can't help much in challenges ... we will see. Can't wait!

Screen time though has no bearing on voting, though.

So while what you say makes sense...

In the end, screen time is determined in the editing bay by how things play out and the story they wish to tell on survivor. (I thought I recall an interview where they stated that much of what they edit is done so in an on-site production facility since it is hours and hours of footage that has to be sorted through.)

So aligning based on that premise alone, is no guarantee of what will occur since everyone is getting filmed at one time or another.

I'm curious as to how many camera operators they have on the island at any given time.

I agree this. Rob should be a asset to his team with challenges.

I'm a child at heart.

Actually I do like James. I think he is a character. I still remember him being voted off holding TWO immunity idols.

then why bring it up I made the post. to see what others thought. Some people thought it was childish to say those words. I never once said how I felt.

Oh honey, I don't think she was picking on you.


Anyhooo..what';s not to love about Ozzy?? He's my little "Aquaman"!

I was referencing a thread where someone (I guess you) posted that a couple in their church were having a tiff b/c she said "ick and yuck" and the husband said she should use more grown up words.


FWIW--I thought the DH was an idiot and I do use ick and yuck.

It was just a joke--and aimed at the husband and not you. But that went over like a lead balloon just like my disclaimer.

Evidently, I don't know the rules of thread cross references involving observed silliness in the real world.

No worries--'tis the season.

Is he the one that said "I'm not longer the worst survivor in history"--after the one guy gave away immunity?

 

[gometros]

I can't place Randy

He was the nasty wedding photographer that also behaved like a neanderthal.
