husker: Are you familiar with IRC?If so, go to #survivor-central and when you hook up with an available server there you can download the program, usually in .avi form. Or if you know how to use newsgroups, try one of the reality t.v. groups to get the show (usually .mpg files) although they are usually split up into .rar files so you will need something to compile those files.

Otherwise the following sites, along with the CBS site should give you a good overview.

Can I ask a question?
Of course I can....

Why didn't the four women vote out Lex? It would have accomplished several things: 1) eliminate the strongest competitor outside of Boston Rob, 2) endeared them all to Boston Rob because they would have preserved his precious hootchiechootchie Amber, 3) made a linkage with Amber that may prove necessary if Rob starts to win every immunity later. 4) if later Rob were to get the axe they would have a possible 4-way alliance to take to the end.

It didn't seem to cross their minds that they had all the cards.

Why does anyone want that control freak Lex to win?
And why aren't the women a little incensed that the two poohbabs Lex and Rob all whispering to each other between tribes about which woman should go? Rolling Eyes

Joe - sometimes I am embarrassed to be a woman. This is one of those situations. I agree and on survivor I have seen so many of the women make dumb decisions on whom to vote off.

One thing I am one of the few who has become a Rob fan. Not sure if I care for him to win or not, but I find him very amusing with a lot of the things he has to say. I do not think he is as much of a jerk as they show on TV and as he acts. I think it is all an act. He certainly showed that he can be soft with his feelings for Amber. I thought he was going to start crying. Amber certainly has him wrapped around her finger. I also admire his abilities in the challenges, physical as well as those that require a degree of intelligence. He seems to be strong in both. However, his cockiness is going to do him in. Why did he try to out do Rupert by catching more fish than him? Rupert seemed to respect him until then. Also, making alliances with everyone. Are the others going to talk together? If they do, they will soon realize what a back stabber he is.

At this point the only two that I feel that should not win at all is Jenna and Shii Ann.

Hi, I'm new, just jumping in. I think Lex is probably very affable in person. From what I read post-Africa, he was a popular player. I have checked out some of his colums on survivor-central.com and he is hilarious! And I'll be the first to admit that we women do get suckered in by that. Embarrassed

I do like Lex and wouldn't mind seeing him win. But I'll have to agree with your observations.

I don't know why the women have NEVER banded together to vote out the men! Geez, they have had the opportunity in every episode that I can remember. And yes, they should be annoyed that Lex is conspiring with Rob -- if they know it at all, that is.

I had to miss last night but I was shocked when I saw that Jerri and Amber voted against each other. I really expected some alliances from former games to be re-formed but I guess it isn't going to happen since Lex also voted off Ethan.

Rob is good TV, isn't he? And he is playing a very good game -- all the way from his performance at challenges to his plotting and scheming.

I tend to like the ones who no one else likes most of the time anyway. I liked Jerri and Alicia in the Outback. I liked weirdo Frank in Africa. I loved grumpy little Sean in Marquesas -- wish he'd been an All Star.

I did jump on the Rupert bandwagon with everyone else, though. It's really hard not to like Rupert!

And yes, it IS embarrassing the way we women act sometimes. Geez! Embarrassed

By the way, I figured out somewhere along the way that in my whole demographic plotting I compeletely overlooked that there hasn't been an Asian winner yet.

So, Shii Ann is my vote at this point.

Is Shii Ann the only Asian who has ever played? Or was Kel Gleason Asian?

0 Replies

He was. How about an italian? I don't think an italian has won and isn't Boston Rob italian?

0 Replies

Winner, not player. (I have this system of figuring out the demographics that served me well the last two seasons -- predicted the winner both times --, but not so far this season.)

Not having seen all the Survivor series, I didn't know who Kel Gleason was. So I Googled him. Ooooo....hottie!!!!!

soz brings up yet another good demographic point but, ya know..I really dont think Shii Ann has it.

And, I must say...whats with GIVING Boston Rob all the power anyway???
Whaddah they stupid?

jeesh. go figure.

I liked seeing how getting the new home got them back on their feet, just their spirits alone were fabulous. I just wonder what will happen to the ones now living in less than adequate style as time goes on, it should wear on them--well, as long as theres no merge and back to the nice place.

0 Replies

Quinn, With the merge, they might all end up at the dump. You never know.

I've been pondering demographics. I don't think it will be Shii Ann although an Asian hasn't won. I think we're due for a man to win. And I'm beginning to think it will be Rupert. Why? He's enormously popular. The longer he's in the game, the longer people will be interested.

We'll see.

As for the women, I'm disappointed. What's with them?

0 Replies

The women still have a chance to get rid of the men. Rob seems to have killed his chances of winning with his sceeming as he did the first time, according to the preview for next week.

I have an odd prodiction for the final four--I have no basis for my reasoning at this point, I just thought it would be the oddest four. Rubert, Kathy, Amber and Tom.

They should have gotten rid of Amber. They were giving too much power to Boston Rob with them being scared of his sorry butt. Cry baby.

0 Replies

Just saw a commercial that had Lex and Rob sitting next to each other. Maybe another shake up in camp members? Im still not sure they'll merge them yet.
If they do merge at this point I would think they go to the dump camp or a whole new place.

Actually, I think that's a pretty sound prediction. I can easily see Amber slipping into the Final Four because everyone assumes she isn't a threat and ignores her. I could see Rupert and Tom forming an alliance, I think. I hope you're right about Kathy, too. She was the most deserving player who never won.

He is a total hottie as far as his looks, but his personality came across as a bit dull in the Outback. He did get a bum rap, though. Someone (I think Jerri) started a rumor that he had snuck food (beef jerky) into his backpack. He was then voted out. I think he still hates Jerri for that.

I wonder if Lex's and Boston Rob's off-screen friendship survived last night's episode. I'm disappointed at the power Rob seems to wield. What's wrong with those people? I hope Kathy can rally the troops. Hey youse guys. Get rid of dat bum!
