I agree that these survivors are hard to like. It's practically Tribe Dumb and Tribe Dumber!! I like Bruce. But has he ever watch the show? This Art teacher is not even aware of the big X he's painting on his own back! At least Terry looks like he's trying to shake it.... Bobby is okay, too. But I still don't understand why he voted with the open alliance(Shane and the ditzy three) to rid Melinda. Not that I like M so much, But he missed the wonderful chance to have his own alliance when Bruce comes back. Unless he has something going that CBS is not showing us. Cirie is in danger the next time they don't win the IC. Thanks to Bobby. Don't get me started with Sally and the Fishing Spear... Perhaps they voted off Misty since she didn't come though with the "We'll make a new one!" statement.

Gemma, it's all good! That violent challenge... I think it would have been better if they only let same number of the same sex go at it. Come to think of it, they never said much about the rules to us. Bobby's win was suspicious. He yanked Ruth Marie's shirt at the other hand while he touches his team mat. Maybe that was a re-filming. He had already won but the producers missed that lil' fact second time around.

I think even the contestants were a little worried about the rules of this game. Didn't it look like Bobby was hesitating for a moment trying to decide if he should tackle Ruth? If Ruth had been a guy I'm sure he'd have just dived on him. Weird weird challenge. Are they trying to kill these poor people? Lord, one team is already "near starvation" according to the previews, Ruth looks like a skeleton, and they've got them doing a grudge match in the sand....crazy! Hope they had a medic handy.

Shane seems to be like a normal person most of the time, but occasionally goes off on little fits. The others are not able to connect the dots on his mood swings. They could ignore him, but it wouldn't make for good TV. One quote about Shane said he just hadn't been the same since Pam Anderson left him.

I guess my definition of "normal" differs a bit because I find Shane to be always annoying. (of course only based on what is shown, but that's all I know of him)

Agreed, Sea...the guy is annoying all the time. Just saw Probst on Mad TV...he was pretty good.

Okay, I guess I should have said his responses to what was going on or said were not completely expected. In a "fit" he makes no sense what so ever. I don't think it is an act on his part. He just seems to lose his mind. The others looked puzzled mostly.

too bad shane is married. or is he a father, but not currently married/with a lady? because he would be perfect for a certain lady who was gone on 'the bachelor' week one...a rotten egg for the rotting eggs... losing their minds would be something to have in common

I hear him mention his son but never a wife...would suppose that means he is not (or has never been) married to the mother of his son. Don't know what their living situation is and too lazy to go and see if it is mentioned on his bio...personally he doesn't do much for me and he has the strangest tattoos...random words on his body?

These dumb people DESERVE to starve! If I had been going there, I would have researched every plant and root and leaf that grows there so that I would know what was/was not edible. Indians have lived in those jungles for centuries, eating what grows there! Which Survivor was it that the RC was a native to teach the winning tribe about how to live off the land?

I think it was the Thailand one, Titan -- the two natives came to their beach and taught them all about the plants, etc. I think it happened on another one, too, but I'm blanking out which one it was.

In Vanuatu, a native named "Da" helped the female tribe. In Palau, a group of natives went fishing with some of the Koror tribe.

TNT, I don't think they know where they are going until they get there. So it would be hard to study every possible plant for every possible location, but it does seem like it would behoove them to practice swimming, build endurance, learn to build fire, the true way to distill water, etc. I think when they arrive they DO get some basic training but so many of these people seem to forget everything and turn into spear-chucking ditzes.. as soon as they start the game.

Thanks for jogging my memory! I was actually thinking of "Da," but now I remember the fishing tips as well! Now those were RC's that kept on giving! Sea - I guess because we know the destination(s) so far in advance, I figured the contestants did as well, but probably not true!

Christa who was on Rupert's tribe in Panama had gone to a botany/zoo type place and studied up on plants before she went on the show.

I'm sure you guys have already deducted to this point, but, if same tribe keeps losing Immunity Challange, they will not have the votes at the merge. So, most likely someone from Dan/Cirie/Austin tribe will be winner.

Spear...please tell me you keep all this pertinent info in a little binder by your computer marked Survivor I-XII. It boggles the mind that you can remember all this stuff!

RB, I think it's the combination of a memory for useless junk and a slight compulsion to google for other useless junk.
