Survivor: Pearl Islands *OFFICIAL THREAD*

[travelbug24]

I haven't viewed the last two episodes as work is getting in the way. I am not on the schedule for Sunday and I have only one thing to say, DON'T EVEN CALL ME TO WORK CAUSE I WON'T BE ANSWERING THE PHONE. Thank goodness for caller I.D.

 

[always quiet]

My whole house erupted in laughter and cheers when they showed the jury celebrating Burton's getting voted off!! Highlight of the season.....now if only they show Rupert ripping Jon apart....that would be perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MeanLaureen - I like the way you think!! ITA

 

[swandiverpatt]

Oh, no -- remember on previews Jon is saying "I"m king of the men." HAHAHAHA

Since there was some modicum of half a brain in the women last night, if they continue to have some brain cell activity, I think that without immunity, Darrah will go first next week since she's the biggest threat to everyone... then Jon... then Sandra will win everything since how could anyone vote for an outcast whiner who was a coat tail rider?

Can you imagine being married to Sandra? One wrong move by her DH and he'd have to deal with her wrath that has been shown to be very alive and well.

 

[WilliamsMom]

Burton sure made a wrong tactical move when he invited Jon to the ruins. If he would have invited Lil I think Burton would still be there. That's what they get for being so confident.

I loved the jury's reaction to the vote as well. That was great. I think this survivor is certainly a really interesting one although all my favorites got voted off a long time ago.

I must admit that I thought Burton was a real hunk from the start but personality is certainly lacking. Actually personality is lacking in Darrah too.

I sure hope they vote Jon off ASAP. Sunday is going to be a great show!!

But what will I watch until February?! Oh well, books are better anyways. Just finished the "Outlander" which was really good.

And, I'm sorry, but Lill has to go NOW. I've never heard such whining, oh-woe-is-me, forehead slapping dribble in my life. I'm the same age as she is and she's a disgrace to 50 year old women.

I agree. Not only that but she was almost the last one to get the compass part of the rewards challenge being that she's a Scoutmaster.

 

[swandiverpatt]

I made that comment to my husband last night (who says he doesn't watch Survivor, but peeks at it over his newspaper at night

For a scout master, she should have had a better grip on at least compass points!

I'm a newbie to survivor, just tuning it in this year. Love the show-and Ruppert!! How does the last show work? There are no more tribal councils? Are there only skill games the last show? Thanks

Someone help please? Want to know what to expect. Thanks

 

[BriarfoxinWA]

Yeah, what was up with Lil and the compass? It looked like she didn't even know how to read the cardinal points as they were written down on her sheet...

I REALLY hope old Johnny Fairplay gets the boot on Sunday! It's going to be interesting to see his reaction from after last nights tribal council. After all the trash he was talking about the women, I hope he is next to go!

And did you catch what Burton said at the end? "Lil, I hope you can live with yourself because you broke our alliance". Umm.... excuse me but who did HE cast his vote for. Well, let's just say I used to like Burton.

You should have heard the spin he put on it this morning. the first caller asked him about that and his excuse was that he knew she had switched when they came back from the reward challenge and that's why he decided to give her up. Excuse me <cough>bullsh*t<cough>

I like him less even after hearing this morning. What an arrogant SOB. Another caller asked if he would have any trouble getting girlfriends after the way he behaved on the show. His response was that he would <giggle> have no trouble getting girls to ask him out.

A couple of highlights frmo last night:

-Ryno, Rupert and Christa congratulating each other on the jury when Burton was voted off.

-Jon's deers in headlight look when he realized the tables were overturned.

-Darrah's smirk as they left the TC.

There will be an immunity challenge and someone will be voted out. Then, there will be another immunity challenge and the person with immunity will select whom s/he wants to take to the final 2. Then, there will be some sappy rememberance of everyone who was "marooned" with them, and they will go to a final TC at which the jury will ask them questions and then vote on whom they think should be the final survivor (winner.)

 

[smileybrat]

I can't believe Jon and Burton thought they had the game in the bag. This always comes back and bites you in the butt. The guy's strategy just involved lying and telling each person something different. The women actually came up with a plan deciding how they would do everything, between Dee and Lil saying Sandra didn't talk alliance and was just lying around because she was going to be voted off, to Sandra whole "I'll do whatever it takes to stay in the game" talk to Burton and Jon. Jon better go next but Lil is very annoying too. I hope the order goes: Sandra first place, Darrah second, Lil third, Jon gone. The jury high fiving at TC was priceless. (I wonder how many tie-dyed shirts Rupert brought?)

 

[Liz]

Sandra has some spunk!!! I love her!!!! I thought it was great how she was going to hide all the tools and stuff when she thought she was getting voted off!!!

And can you believe Jon wanting to see her hands to make sure she didn't have her fingers crossed.

 

[Kirby]

I loved how the girls played the guys. Even Lil was able to hang in there even though Jon sensed something was up. I think that she was actually playing the game for once.

Jon has got to go next. He is a threat even though Sandra considers that he is "just another girl".

Someone mentioned how odd that Lil was having trouble with the compass part of the IC last night. Maybe she didn't want to win the reward. She's been on a couple of them already. Knowing what we have seen, its possible she wanted to give someone else a chance to go.

 

[ARLO1]

I don't think lil is smart enough to think about that.

[Liz]

I don't think Lil was faking her incompetence. Remember the previous challenge she won (where she got to go on the fishing boat with Jon) she whined that she wasn't giving it away because she didn't get to do things like that in real life. I don't think she'd throw a reward challenge on purpose.

 

[msdznyduck]

Finally the girls got it together last night . We all cheered Darrah on ......faster, faster.....don't fall..
Even DH who doesn't watch regularly, tuned in last night.
Watching the jury at TC last night after the vote was great !!I think Jon realizes how much he was disliked. His face was priceless.And Darrahs smirk to the jury as she walked out was great !!.
Yes, Sunday's night will be interesting, to say the least, now that JOn knows his days are numbered.
The Reunion after the show is over, will be interesting as well. I hope Rupert gets his say.
