When they asked "Who never shuts up?" Several said Terry. That surprised me. He didn't have any seduction skills on getting them to flip, but I didn't know he was a never shut up guy.

A thought on why they said "Terry" as the never shuts up .. they all might have been thinking they didn't want to "call out" anyone else on "Their team" ... although the Poser question (Among others) was just as bad!

Yes, I don't think they were prepared in any way for that challenge. It was much more personal that the general things they are asked at tribal counsel. I loved it because things needed a shake up.

I also thought it was odd that they said Terry was the one who never shuts up, considering they've pretty much isolated him. Who is he going to talk to?

I assume they all kept saying terry because they didn't want to offend anyone on their own team. They should have thought about that more when they were originally filling in the answers to the questions. This challenge has been done before, I am surprised they haven't learned that.

Sallycat, we saw Terry telling military stories and Aras, Cirie and another talking about how boring it was. I think that was the reference.

Yep, I think Terry is a talker. They've showed them more than once being bored by Terry talking (about himself.) I think that is all a part of him looking arrogant.

I think that actually was an honest answer. Remember they have lived with Shane's talking and Courtney's talking and even Bruce's talking for awhile, but Terry came after the merge and led the effort to break up their alliance and we have seen clips of him talking about his past while they roll their eyes. I think that was a reasonable answer within their frame of reference. (personally I'd be way more interested in listening to Terry 's stories than to Courtney or Shane, but I'm not there). The completely out of whack answer was Aras' last one about Terry not being able to survive but that was strategic since only Aras and Cirie were left in competition and he was confident that she would bring him along. Actually, she should have claimed that she also brought him along because he was the last standing against her. But in reality, Terry is no more of a talker than Shane. And what I've heard is at least coherent talk instead of strange rantings and accusations.

i watched Survivor Live last night for the first time this season to see what Bruce had to say. He really didn't talk about his illness as I had expected him to do. What was talked about was from Jenna's perspective that Courtney has a big crush on Shane!?!?!?! I don't see it. Jenna also talked about how everyone accepts Shane now and likes him!?!?!?!?! And, how Terry is so boring. It was really weird to hear what she had to say since it is so different from what I read on this board.

He was on ET or the Insider last night and said much longer and he'd have died, then went on to tell about dozens of other problems he had had in his life.. When Cirie, Aras and Danielle went on their reward trip, they talked about Courtney having a crush on Shane (or Shane on Courtney) and that their bickering was for drama. As for Jenna and her opinions.. pfft! I suspect I'd find her far more boring than Terry. And remember, lots of them "accepted" Jonny Fairplay but that certainly didn't make me want to endure another minute of his airtime. Shane isn't that bad, but again, matter of taste, and I wouldn't rely on Jenna's reviews for anything.

Jenna seems to favor the weaker players who really couldn't survive on their own, rather than the ones such as Tom and Terry who I would consider to be real survivors. I would rather have someone strong win over someone who stayed under the radar, just because they are liked more. IMO, this shouldn't be so much a popularity contest like Big Brother. Survival skills should be rewarded. But if Terry makes final two, I think this jury will give it to anyone on Casaya over him.

I wish they'd do something like start with one or two teams and tell them the people they vote out will make a third team. This would stop them from voting out all the strong players ASAP. The cast out team would probably lose pretty quickly, but hey.

For me it’s not an either or… strength vs. social skills. If you have excellent social skills your team will take care of you. Where if you have awesome physical strength and not strong social skills…well you’ll be used and then the first to be eaten. The tribe will survive. I like my survivors to be strong in both but if I had to pick social skills would win out. Right now I’m rooting for Cirie or Aras.

They keep telling him he's gone as soon as he loses IC or II. I'm tired of the pagonging. I say, next time, no teams. It gets old, the picking off. The lazy and worthless get a free ride. Make them work for their immunity, like Terry has been forced to.>> I so agree, Deb! It's Terry battling an entire team, the guy rocks!

I think that Terry is doing very well against very tough odds. LOL - He must be driving them crazy by still being there. He beats them in all the challenges and he is a very tough competitor. I'm loving it!

I'm loving me some Terry. I love to watch the looks on their faces whenever Terry wins an II challenge. I wonder if its crossed their minds that maybe they should have competed and not eaten those cheeseburgers. It would have forced Terry to use the Idol had he lost the competition.

It's funny to read that the one of the most undeserving winners in Survivor's history (second only to Amber) thinks somebody's boring.

I'd say Ethan and Sandra were the most undeserving winners with Ethan having the edge in the boring category.

Ah, I liked Sandra from day one, but agree about Ethan .. I have almost blanked out that season. Ethan's boring but seems like a nice-enough guy. Jenna was boring and not all that pleasant, IMO.

I think everyone who has won is deserving but Amber and Ethan were boring. Jenna I just didn't like.

wow, i loved sandra. she's one of the few i felt deserved the win. jenna was the least deserving IMO. matt should have won that one. i thought sandra and rupert were fun from the first episode, where she traded a gold chain for all the chicken and foil from the locals' bbq and rupert acted like a pirate! that was the best first epi, ever, IMO. having to jump ship wearing only the outfits they had on, and thinking they were just there for a photo shoot was great entertainment.
