Pamy, link to youtube above your Friday post has a clip of Jonathan on EI, unable to find ii. That also reminded me that Jon was the one who "took" Yul's chicken! And now they are in an alliance?!? The accent sounds Queens to me. Not LI, not so Brooklyn, definitely not upstate,... Not that I'm qualified to id something like that. Although I am one of those musicians who could mimic my roommate's' accent for fun in college days(LI, Texas, NB.) When I'm very tired, I still won't have a thick Chinese accent but a mixed all-over-the-map accent.

I thought the chicken thing was accidental; as in he saw the chicken and took it not knowing that someone on his tribe had already taken one. Also, Probst said there was not enough of all items for each tribe to have one of everything, so they should gather whatever they wanted. The chickens were up for grab for whoever grabbed. Jonathon is a professional actor so maybe he can sound like Alda if he wants to.

OK, add me to the list of people who thought right away that Jonathan sounds like AA. Funny to think it isn't just my imagination.

I knew there was a reason a didn't like Jonathan. I've never liked Alan Alda in anything other than MASH. It seems like he almost always plays a real butt-hole character in other movies and shows. And he does it very, very well! Poor Jonathan, I guess he's the victim of "voice discrimination"!

I really liked Flica till last week's episode. I really and truly dislike people who go on a game show slash reality show just to "make friends." Either she's totally clueless about Survivor (and the $1M payoff) or she's playing us. I'm thinking the former. And what's her name... the flirt. Parvotti? OK, so if she was totally hot, maybe I could see it. But her flirting is just horrible. That's not flirting. The girl needs to go back to school and learn how to flirt properly. What she's doing is "fawning" and it's not a pretty sight, to me. The AA guy with the dreads? I think he's seeing right thru her. I've not liked Jonathan since the first show, for some reason. I dunno why, but he just rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's his accent (if it is NY, that probably has a lot to do with it). But I think his smirking is probably what bothers me the most, and the fact that he thinks he's got this in the bag. I loved how he thought he would be able to get Flica to do his bidding, and then she had him worried that she wasn't gonna do what he wanted. At any rate, massive egos are not pretty, and I'm thinking that's something he may have. I'm on the fence about Ozzy. He's playing hard, but I think his attitude kinda bothers me. And what is UP with lazy people???? Hello? You are on SURVIVOR! YOU have to get your own food, water, fire, shelter. Once, just once, I'd love for the rest of the tribe to say "um, nope, you can't have water/food" or "you can't sleep in the shelter" since "you didn't do anything to help". Hehehe. And oh yeah, don't these folks EVER watch Survivor? The lazy folks always end up going fast!

Costacat, except in Survivor V Thailand Brian and Clay both laid around all the time and expected the women to "take care of them." Helen made a big stink about it but they still both won. Also, in Survivor VI Amazon Jenna Marasca generally did squat to help out the tribe and accused them all of being jealous of the "hot girls" if they said anything. Guess who won that one.

Yeah, Chill, but that was only two out of thirteen seasons. I think Jenna got by cause she managed to perpetuate the "I'm hot" myth. And I can't remember Thailand much but wasn't that where Pagonging first took place? As in, they won a lot of comps and it wasn't until closer to the end that B/C's teammates had an opp to get rid o f 'em. As a general rule, I think people tend to resent those who don't do anything.

I remember Clay being lazy but I don't really remember Brian being all that lazy. Brian was an expert at manipulating people into believing that he was taking them with him to the end...and then towards the end he won every competition. I don't recall him ever being in any particular danger.

I don't know if Brian was lazy or not; Helen was upset on one episode about the men not doing anything and she did include Brian in that scenario. I was just pointing out that the lazy, do-nothing attitude has been used and worked for some in the past. Those would be my first pick for eviction though if I were there.

It would be mine too. When I was typing my description of Brian's ability to manipulate I was trying to remember who else on a reality show was like that and then I realized I had just typed a description of Dr. Will! OH NO! Another BB reference in an inappropriate thread. I apologize.

Brian and Clay --- thanks for reminding me that there actually has been a final two as distasteful as Erika and Boogie.

The "pagonging" began on Survivor ONE! The Pagong tribe (w/Kelly, Rich, Sue, etc.) had a four-person alliance. They managed to vote out the other tribe one by one (once by using Sean's "alphabet" strategy against him) until only Pagong was left. It happened to a certain degree on Australia and it was all set to run rampant on Africa until the "surprise" swap of 2 members from each tribe. By the time Thailand came along, Brian had had "years" to study the technique and use it to his benefit.

I liked Brian. Maybe not so much AFTER Survivor, but I thought he was a GREAT and ultimate survivor.
