Survivor All Star OFFICIAL THREAD!

[Liz]

I don't blame Alicia for being upset at the reward challenge. I think it would be very hurtful to hear that you are voted the person who thinks they are smart but they aren't, or something to that effect. I was expecting Rob's name to come up. And Alicia deserves to be on All-Stars as much as Shi-Ann, Rob or Amber!!

 

[SJCSuzy]

As for the food -- did anyone go back and check? I *think* what Rupert did was throw Shii-ann to the last of the list so she'd have the rice, but otherwise he did it in the order they were knocked out of the reward. Wasn't Tom the first to go from reward? That meant he got picked last for food. That's my thought, anyway, though I didn't go back and check

No, I haven't checked the whole order of leaving the challenge but Amber was out first so Rupert was showing who is alliance is with. I think thats why when Tom and Rob were talking Rob said something about "Rupert gave me a hamburger to try and impress me". I think he was trying to make Tom think that only Rupert thought they had an alliance but Rob was still sticking with Tom. This season has been so predictable, but Rob seems to have them all thinking they are in his alliance. By the time they figure it out I bet it will be too late.

I think everyone believes that Ambuh & Rob will be in the final 4, their 2-headed voting block kinda dictates that. Everyone is just playing to get in the final 4 or 3. I think they ALL believe that the best thing that could happen is be in the final 2, with Rob, (I can't really see Alicia, Lex, or Kathy to vote Rob the winner).

Hence: They aren't voting Rob off. Everyone's best chance is to get to the final 3 with Rob & Ambuh, then win an immunity challenge.

I agree except I think if Amber & Rob are the final 2 that Kathy will end up voting for Rob. At least based on how she talked the day after she got the boot. She said Amber is who told her she'd keep her around, not Rob. I think other than the EXTREME bitter folks (i.e. Lex), most people in the end will admit how well Rob has played the game, physically & otherwise & give him the vote. Again, JMHO. I can't wait to see how it all plays out.

This is the order in which they were eliminated in the reward challnge.

1 - Tom
2 - Jenna
3 - Shiann
4 - Alicia
5 - Rob
6 - Amber

I don't know how Rupert came up with his pecking order.

 

[DopeyRN]

If I were there I would vote out Rob. I understand he is "playing the game", but that cocky self is like fingernails on the blackboard to me.

 

[deadheadbelle]

I guess he makes a lot of people crazy, but I think he is hysterical. I loved him in Marquesas & I was so happy when he got picked for All-Stars. Oh well, Different strokes.....

 

[manchurianbrownbear]

Forgive me if this has already been discussed, but I have to ask, isn't it a SURVIVOR rule that if you win, you can't share your prize money with another contestant? How do they enforce that?

I REALLY hope that it doesn't come down to Rob and Amber, but I'm afraid it will. On a show several weeks ago, didn't Rob suggest that if Amber won, it would be the same as if he won?

I still don't think that Rob has been a particularly clever player. I think he has been fortunate to end up with a group of people that aren't real bright.

I thought Rupert would have been wise to randomly select the order in which the others would select their meals. Picking people the way he did reveals something about his strategy and he probably created some hard feelings (with Tom?).

 

[travelbug24]

At TC didn't someone (I think Jenna) tell Jeff, yes they all have an alliance together but when it is down to the final six, it's everyone for themselves...it's up for grabs. ???

Rob admitted he has to win all the immunity challenges because everyone is aware of the pecking order and if he loses, he could get voted out.

So I am surmising in an off camera discussion it was decided that when it got down to six, the plan is...everyone for themselves. Well, except for Ambuh!

Please, let it go down this way. It will liven up the show if everyone starts playing their own game instead of Rob's game.

I have gained a new respect for Shii Ann. She knew what she had to do to stay in the game and she pulled it off! More power to her! I like her, always liked her. I don't like Jenna and her constant yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, me, me, me, me!

And I am sure Rob thinks he has it in the bag. After all, he is the strongest and the smartest (his thoughts) and the luckiest too, he has Amber.

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

But does he have Amber?????? (I just re-read your post travelbug24......I see you mean't in Rob's head.......)

I'm not so sure she isn't just playing along with his game until it is her time to strike. I didn't think she played partularly well in Australia, but this time I think she is.

Much better than Jenna........yap, yap, yap, yap.

My feeling is the Rob won't make it to the final 4 because I think they are just playing up the Rob's Team thing in the editing. I really don't think these players (Tom, Rupert, Amber) are as dumb as we think they are. Whoever said it was right, Tom is really under the radar. They have all played before and I'm sure prepared prior to AllStars.

However, I still think they should have taken Rob out as soon as they had the opportunity. They all run the risk of him getting the next few amunities (Remember Kelly in the first Survivor - they all wanted her out and publically said so, but couldn't)

If it is Rob and Amber in the final two........can't you just see the final night around the campfire.........actually no we probably won't see it because it'll be "X" by the FCC! One big out of focus blob

[gometros]

Hey, Survivor is on tonight! No preliminary discussion? Where's Tulirose when you need him?

 

[pygmymom]

Any speculation on who's going tonight? I think it will be either Shii Ann or Big Tom. Even though I can never understand what he's saying, Big Tom is good entertainment.

I can't believe how blind Rupert is when it comes to Boston Rob and his "promises". If the rest were smart, they would have gotten rid of Rob last week the one time he didn't win immunity. Oh, well, it's their million dollar loss.

 

[DemonLlama]

Rob and Amber continue to be a couple in real life. She isn't playing him and she isn't going to betray him. If Shii-Ann can't pull off another miracle, I'm betting she's gone tonight. If she does, then its most likely Tom on the chopping block, since Rupert and Jenna are a loyal alliance. The trailers have Rupert wishing he didn't have an alliance with Jenna, but that seems to be a red herring. If she was really going, I think the trailer would have pointed to the tribe's annoyance with someone else.

Think maybe some day they might actually show a preview that hints at what may indeed happen? Would fool us all at this point

THURSDAY ON SURVIVOR: ALL-STARS



After a fight, one castaway declares regret for ever having made an alliance with a tribemate.

To enjoy an overnight visit with their loved ones, the All-Stars are forced to watch their loved ones battle each other in the Reward Challenge.

It's no holds barred as one All-Star calls out another for being the bossiest member of Chaboga Mogo.

A tough struggle for individual Immunity comes down to a close finish. Who will be safe this week?


Don't miss all the action
Thursday, April 29 at 8pm ET/PT.

 

[Tulirose]

Going out to dinner momentarily - Work-related celebration (staff versus patients weight-loss contest and the staff won! Drug rep is paying for dinner! Nice reward for losing weight!!)

Don't know what time I will be back. Hubby will record show if I am not home in time.

Frankly, however, each week passing gets me less and less interested in this show.... Why is that???

I vote for Shii-Ann to be next.... please!!.....

 

[Grog]

I think Shii-Ann is next unless she wins immunity again, or pulls of some last minute miracle and gives someone a very good reason to keep her around.

I can't believe how blind Rupert is when it comes to Boston Rob and his "promises".

They are all blind to the way Rob is playing them. I am just amazed, after the way he played people in the Marquesas, that this group hasn't compared notes at least once and found out Rob has promised to take them all to the final four.

I am convinced they have and we just have not seen it. Of course I am only convinced of this because I cannot admit anyone could be that dumb !

Did anyone else see the CBS morning show today? with former Survivors handicapping the competition?
