Wendy Jo talked her way off.


"nobody asked me how old I am"

That's because no one fucking cares.

hot chick factor this season is abnormally low.


Like I said, the milf "Yve Rojas" is where it's at after seeing the preview of the players.

I am so glad the weirdo Wendy is gone as she annoyed me in the preview and it got even worse in this episode.

Wendy Jo... you had my sympathy until you opened your yap at the end of tribal council.

Tried to watch half the first episode, couldn't make it through to the end. No eye-candy and the young vs old tribes thing is just plain stupid. Either the young-uns will dominate or the challenges have to be extremely unphysical. Whichever, they're not going to be very interesting. How long until the next The Amazing Race?

End of the month. And that shit better me in HD. HD came out more than a decade ago.

heh, that is exactly what me and my wife were talking aobut after she was voted off.

i too am kind of skeptical about how this seasonw ill play out. the whole old vs young seems kind of boring IMO, because the old people are kind of boring in general.

but as with survivor, the first few eps are kind of boring in general since you don't know who is who and what not. i gotta say i hope jimmy johnson stays around long because he's entertaining to listen to.

i think his whole 'im not here to win im here for an adventure' card was pretty stupid to play. as a player, if someone isn't there to win, i wouldn't want them around. but at the same time, as he said, if people won't give him the $$ at the end sine he is rich and famous already, maybe he will be a good one to sit next to in the final...

They "showcased" him WAY too much though. Which leads me to believe that he wont be around to long, and they are trying to sell him while they can.

That being said, jeebus I hate everyone on the show thus far.
Maybe it's my age or something but I can't stand EITHER of the two age groups they got. Hell half the old people look horribly out of shape and hurting after 2 days. And they young tribe, I just want to punch every single one of them in the face.

Yet again, for another year, I don't get the clothes the Survivors are wearing. Do they literally just pick them up in whatever the hell they have on and say "we're leaving NOW" and that is what they are stuck wearing?

you mean you didn't like the two young guys wearing nothing but boxer briefs frollicking through the forest together?

when they were doing that my wife looked at me and said 'when do you think they are going to kiss?' heh.

Yawn. That first episode was so boring. This season is going to suck.

Why can't they go back to the original format. School yard pick style, no imunity idols, let them starve. Now we have "Secret Power Medallion".

Yay.

That was part of it yes.
But in general I dont get it.
If I was going to be on the show, I'd wear cargopants with swimtrunks underneath, t-shirt, long sleeve shirt and button down flannel for WEEKS just so if when they "snatched" me I'd be ready to go.

Oh and finally FINALLY the chick that started the fire... SOMEBODY that comes into the game with a half a brain. If you knew you were going to be on the show, WHY WOULDN'T you learn to do things like start fire, forrage for food, LEARN SURVIVAL tactics. I just don't get contestants.

One thing that seemed odd this season too is everyone seemed to try to hit the ground running. They all got back to camp and were hardcore into the game making alliances and planning who they wanted to take to the end etc etc... how the hell can you do that when you have hardly even talked to these people.

* let me say that I realize a lot of it can be creative editing too.

Wendy Jo... man, shut up. That black dude nailed it on the head. That he wasn't sure who he ws going to vote for until she opened her yap.

Yay.

The 1st episodes of all such reality shows suck because you have no vested interest in any of the people, and don't "know" them.

I actually had to admit that I liked the "Power Medallion" angle a bit. It was a nice curveball, and I think the Old Tribe were smart in not playing it (even though they lost) in such a challenge.

Is this everyones first time watching Survivor or something?

1. They have done this before with the tribes. After a few weeks they re-split them up. My guess is they will do that again.

2. Yes, they just grab them and say lets go.

3. To the guy that said no eye candy.....seriously?....seriously?

After seeing a few "all star" seasons, it's frustrating to watch a bunch of n00bs come in and struggle with the typical food/shelter issues. Last season was the best I've seen; the strategies, surprises and schemes from Boston Rob, Parvati, Russell, etc. will be hard to top.

If i was playing this year i would be on the younger tribe...i would be pissed. They all seem half retarded.

Yet the old tribe all seems dead.
I have to rewatch it, but I swear Probst (oh shit gotta read the blog still!) said "everyone 30 and under over here. Everyone 40 and over, over there." no 30 year olds? or am I just remembering that wrong?

The last season of survivor was so good until they picked the winner, then it all turned into a big joke.

I won't be watching anymore but I hope they'll pick an at least somewhat deserving winner and not just who the nicest person was.

Still wished rob-parv-russel could have worked together from the beginning. They would have (even though in some respects they still did) controlled the game with puppet strings.

I don't see how Probst can say "medallion of power" and keep a straight face. He must feel like a tool.

Wonder if peg-leg will be the first to go from her tribe.

Yeah I could have swore he said that too. I thought there were going to be 3 tribes.
