I'm not loving that they only have one comp per episode the past two episodes. Too much time watching "strategizing"

I'm not loving Survivor on Wednesday either. They are really messing with our internal clocks on this one. For a decade or more we have been watching Survivior on Thursday and then waking up to know it's Friday! TGIF!!! But, nope, today is *not* Friday. Boo, hoo.

I'm not minding just one challenge -- I think they often do that the first few weeks because there are so many people to watch and get to know. I'm wondering if we are not seeing much of the younger tribe because they are around a lot longer and we'll have a chance to get to know them later. I don't read spoilers at all, but it seems we really know the older tribe, so that has me concerned they are going to be down in numbers early in the game.

Not to be contradictory to my fellow Survivor fans but I like the change to Wednesdays. The shop is open late on Thursdays so I'm happy to get home and unwind before it comes on.

I also like it when they only have one competition per episode. I like watching more of their interactions and 'strategizing' outside of a challenge.

I usually have my favorites all picked out by now but I'm having a hard time finding someone to root for. I liked Jimmy J but he's gone. It normally takes me longer to dislike contestants too but I already don't like NaOnka, Jimmy T and Marty. I didn't like Shannon either and am glad he's already gone. I tried to like Jill but she is not making it easy. I guess I'll root for Jud and Kelly right now.

Survivor on Wed's is fine by me........but so soon after BB I want to go on line and find out what is going from those with "live feeds".
Pray for me.
NaOnka is absolutely vile; she and Evel Dick would make a lovely couple.< coughbullcrap>

We could all root for Jane! She is my vote on the older tribe.

Add me to the "newfound respect for Jimmy J" club. What a guy. We got to see the character of the man and understand just why he was such a great coach. Knowing the game is obviously not all it takes to become a great coach.

As for Jimmy T. I hope he lasts long enough to prove how inept he is as a leader and make a complete fool of himself. Usually, he who proclaims to everyone how great a leader he is, is really nothing but a wanna-be. The green sap of jealousy that seeped out of his eyes would have been in vivid color even on the most ancient black & white TV.


As Jimmy J. has proven, a truly great leader just leads, and doesn't waste his breath telling everyone how great he is.

Thanks, Denecee, I do like Jane. I liked her the first epi when she started the fire and I like that she's out there fishing too. I usually wind up disliking the lazy people. As on tv and so in life.

I was really rooting for Jimmy J. So sad to see him go. I do not like the older tribe anymore and am now rooting for the younger tribe.

I didn't like seeing Jimmy J voted out at TC. He's a fine man, a gentleman in every way. He broought a lot of class to Survivor, just like he brings class to Fox NFL. He loves football in a way that few people do. By this, I mean that he's 100% imaprtial. You do something great and he roots for you. You struggle and he coaches you to regroup and play better. You fail through your fault and he scolds you. Doesn't matter what team you play on, he stays impartial.

He loved and played Survivor the same way. Unparalleled!

What an interesting and mind-boggling episode. The hatred. The vitriolic rise. The creepiness. The foolishness. The behavior on both tribes parallels much of what I witness daily in RL as we deal with country's collective unrest. Fascinating!

NaOnka surpasses Evil Dick. He was vile as vile can be, but much of his vileness was playing to the cameras. (No approval here!) NaOnka appears to be mean on a lower level. Maybe she isn't. I have a hard time believing otherwise. I hope she grows up soon. I can't imagine having a child taught by her. If she were in charge of my children for as much as two minutes, I would remove them from her poison.

I hope that Marty and Jimmy T dislike the way they behaved regarding Jimmy J. Maybe the game colored their thinking. Who knows?

Fabio makes me laugh.

Psssttt....Tvclubber. You see the date/time stamp at the top of your post? Then a white button with a shaded E to the right of it? Hover your mouse over that button, and you'll see the "edit post" pop up. Click on that button to edit your post. I believe you have up to 10 minutes from the time of your post to edit it.

As for the typos, no problem. I think most of us can live with them. Your message is conveyed, and that's what's important!

Loved your message and didn't see a singly typo Tvclubber!

I too like Fabio. Normally I don't like himbos, but he has a geniune warmth about him, really a very likable guy in a Spicoli kind of way.

I don't think it was the game...I think it was a portion of the male anatomy significantly lower than their brain.

Nakona....Even if she is edited to seem stupider than she really is, she comes across as every bad stereotype. She belongs on the Jerry Springer line up. She stands out...but not in the way she is wanting to.

I have just got to watch the show now. I have to agree with Sally, NaOnka has such a mean spirit it is scary.

I am enjoying the season, I like the split of the teams.

I don't think I could tolerate a person like Naonka with less than zero compassion. And it's not just the lack of compassion, she actually picked out Kelly B to bully specifically because of her disability. She picks on Fabio because he apparently doesn't meet her IQ standards even though he seems to be a perfectly nice young man. That is just trashy. And pure meanness.

PS I think Jimmy Johnson let them know he was ready to go without actually saying so - he was clearly beat down, probably feeling worse physically than he ever has in his life, and didn't think he would make it much further anyway so he told them a) he understood that he might go b) he was ok with that and c) admitted that he was one of the weaker players at tribal, making their decision much easier for all involved. I don't think they would have ALL voted him out like they did if he didn't let them know he was good with it and felt it was the right decision for everyone (including him). I don't think he quit by any means, I just think he took a realistic view of what was happening with his own condition and felt that his leaving was best for all involved.

I agree with everyone. That is one disgusting person. I can't imagine her being a PE teacher. She is suppose to be a role model. Geeze Louise. Parents ya better run from this one.

Goddess - I agree with everything you said about Coach BUT I'm still upset that he is gone. Dan should have been the one voted out - he could hardly walk to the table to write down his vote. And his silence when showing his vote was class.

I won't be for the younger tribe as long as NaOnk is still there. She is getting uglier by the minute. What is the matter with those people? Why won't they get rid of her?
Now that Jimmy J. is gone, I am trying hard to find a new favourite. Guess I'll be for Fabio, he seems good-natured and is trying hard. And what business is it of NaOnk's how he wears his hair?

Goddess, I kind of got the same impression that Jimmy J was fine with being voted out.

Down South, we refer to someone like Naonka as having an "evil soul."

just read an interview at realitytvworld and jimmy johnson said he was surprised that he was voted out. he thought they would be going for dan.

also i think jill is totally playing marty in that she wants him on her side but she wants him to be the "face" of their alliance and later on he will get the boot and she will slide right on by.

Oregonguy, I hope you're right (and I love your state, btw) but she really just seems to be deferring to him too much and may wind up being seen as a coattail rider. I couldn't believe it when she just stood by and let him take credit for finding the II and for sharing it with the group! WTH? Or was all that editing?

I was watching to see if Marty actually did anything that was useful and all I saw him do was talk smack about Jimmy J. He was so jealous of him that he couldn't get past it. He has serious problems and I would like to see him go.
