~ SURVIVOR Samoa ~ Season 19 ~

[DVC Sadie]

What a snake in the grass! I hope Russell gets caught ASAP and is voted out pronto. To think that he is a millionaire who owns his own oil company. I'm glad that we don't know him or have anyone we do know that works for him. Can you imagine what type of a boss he would be?

This season should be very entertaining.

Hi everyone. I just found this thread. I love to watch Survivor. It's one of the few shows my whole family will watch. Heck, it's one of the few shows that my husband won't flip the channel 100 times in an hour.

Russell is an idiot. I think all his conniving is going to backfire on him a lot quicker than he thinks.

I like Jaison, the swimmer guy, so far.

 

[Diane♥Disney]

Russell has got to go! I can't believe he dumpd out everyone's water.

 

[NAB]

Well another Russel to hate. He is short and bald just like Russel from BB.

Can't believe he is allowed to burn people stuff. I missed the part where the other found the water gone....what did they say?

 

[4greatboys]

BB Russell I liked this Russell I do not like. And he is from Houston. Way to represent my hometown

No "Jeff's" but I did see a couple of cute guys.

 

[just4today]

There will never be another as cute as J.T. from last season

Did they even show anything about what the others said about the missing water and their socks? Maybe I missed it too.

[M&N]

What did Marisa do to tick off the guy sitting beside her? Not Russell H.

 

[crazee4mickey]

OMG!! I think Russell is worth watching--he's done more in one episode then all the rest of the past Survivors have combined!

He has hit on everything--sympathy for supposedly losing "his home", "dog", he's a hero(firefighter), dumping water, burning socks, can manipulate all the players. However, he'd better watch out for Betsy cause she might be on to at least some of his antics.

Not crazy how he used Katrina but then Johnny Fairplay used his Grandma or the fact that he's a multi-millionaire and doesn't even need the money. Hopefully he's around for a bit to stir up trouble--just glad I'm not on Survivor with him because he's a definate game player.

 

[Tess]

I don't have a real good feel for the players at this point. We sure didn't see much but for Russell the Evil. A little bit of him is going to go a long way for me. I don't enjoy players of his ilk. I'm with the others who don't think he will last long--he talks far too much.

If I have to choose now, I like Betsy (cop) and the doctor--both seem to read people well.

 

[DeluxePrincess]

The docotor who was voted leader seemed unsure of himself after Russell became the one to rally the troops. He was one of the few who voted for Ashley. I would be concerned about that. Will he be able to overthrow Russell? I do hope Russell sticks around for a while. He made it really interesting.

 

[Breezy_Carol]

Hi Gang! I may join in from time to time.

I HATE Russell. Not sure who I would pick. I do like the leader of the other tribe.

 

[Liz]

I agree with you and I'm afraid as long as he's on the show it's going to be the the "Russell hour" and we won't get to know a lot about any of the other players. I hope he goes soon. I thought the gal who got voted off tonight had potential to be a really good player. At least she can feel good to know she was on to Russell's tricks.

I like the police officer lady too. I didn't expect to like Shambo but I did. I also like the doctor. The rocket scientist might not last long if he doesn't try to fit in more. I don't like the guy in the tank top either.

 

[Liz]

Did they even show anything about what the others said about the missing water and their socks? Maybe I missed it too.

They showed the guy looking for his socks and the some of the others looking at the canteens and saying all the water was gone and that someone drank it.

 

[declansdad]

I agree that Betsy is a strong player but she better be careful around Russell. If he suspects that she is on to him this early, he will be able to convince the others to get rid of her. Many of them seemed to believe his story.

ITA! I can't stand Russell - he's slimy and he runs his mouth WAY too much. I forgot it was on, and forgot to set my DVR, so I missed the first 20 minutes. It's set to record the rest of the season, though!!

 

[legalsea]

Definitely not Russell. I predict he will be kicked out within the next 3 tribal councils if his team loses. I have a feeling they will all catch on to him. Especially with the police officer lady- (Betsy is her name I think) she already has a bad vibe about him.

I agree. At the tribal council Russell spoke about how Marisa distrusted him (wary!) because he seen speaking one-on-one with the other women. Since he had 'forged an alliance' with four women (including the one booted) no doubt the other three (especially the police woman) picked up on that statement and will compare notes.

Nevertheless, Russell is such an obviously strong physical competitor he may well slide by for a few tribal councils since they will need his strength. Unless, of course, he gets caught pouring out water, destroying food (which he had said in pre-interviews he will do), etc.

 

[Amelia Peabody]

I think they will start comparing notes and catch on to Russell soon. If they are careful, they should keep him around to win challenges. He's very good at those and could carry the tribe far. Then they can kick his dumb butt out.

I know for a fact that potential Survivors are given a pretty intense psych evaluation. SO what I do not understand, is how the powers that be manage to find a crazy person every season??

Russell was really bothering me last night. Right out of the gate, he is calling people dumb and stupid, and sabotaging his own team???? WTH???? My first instinct with him, is he is the stupid one. He thinks he is so brilliant with his schemes, and he is going to get caught ASAP. I think the tribe is already onto him, the editing just hasn't showed us.

I don't ever remember hating someone this early in the game. Yes, I have had people I didn't like, but I despise Russell, and he better be gone soon.
