Rocky couldn't come close to being Rob. He wishes. In his wildest dreams.

i guess i am in the minority here because Rocky & Rob are the same to me except that Rob has Amber's coattails to ride.

Rocky's bio from the CBS website. It doesn't say anything there about Belly's, but it doesn't discredit it either. *********************** Biography Originally from Boston, James Reid received his high school diploma through an adult program. He currently works as a bartender and also sets up for private parties and special events at an upscale hotel. He was formerly in the United States Navy, stationed in Ridgecrest, California and San Diego where he eventually received an honorable discharge. Reid enjoys working out at the gym, most sports (especially football) and hanging out with good friends. He describes himself as outgoing, tough (but an overall "good kid"), a people person and a "man's man." Reid is currently single and living in Los Angeles, California. His birth date is September 11, 1978.

Landi, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! You have shattered my entire belief system about reality television casting in modern America. If we can't count on the constant of an endless supply of Belly's bartenders actor-wannabes to supply our reality television casting calls, then you tell ME, just what can we count on in this life? Could we perhaps continue to use the term Belly's bartenders as metaphor for somebody who is not a real and ordinary person appearing on a reality television show, but somebody (preferably an actor or actor wannabe) selected to fill a "type" slot in a reality television show? Like, um, Jonathan from last season? Could any of us agree to the use of that metaphor?

/me agrees to that metaphor.... cause you know that is going to describe 90% of the Big Brother cast this summer.

We know Boo was the one for sure that was connected to the Big Brother Cast. He was at their wrap party with Kristin. She is also supposed to be coming as his partner in the family visit I think.

I knew it looked weird when I typed kristin instead of krista. She isn't very memorable either except being the girl that had a knife to her throat and then later got engaged to Boogie on TV. All the stuff inbetween those two events is gone to me.

How can anybody forget Boo? He's from Louisiana which is where I live, so I was very interested in watching this guy......and the only thing he has done so far to be remembered is poke a stick in his eye, cut his finger and fall in a hammock all in one episode!!! (LOL) He is in an alliance with Alex, Edguardo and Lisi......but that isn't going to be long-lived.

Episode 7 Reward Challenge: Blindfolds, Skulls, Puzzles Blindfolded contestants are guided by a tribemate who acts as a caller. The blindfolded contestants are guided to hanging skulls which they break by swinging or throwing a stick. After all skulls have been smashed (paint splatters out, puzzle pieces are possibly retrieved from skulls?) the tribe members race to their puzzle stations to solve the obligatory puzzle.
From previous pics we know that Michelle is the caller for Moto (and falls off her perch). I thought Lisi was the caller for Ravu, but from this pic it appears the Ravu caller is Alex.
I originally said sand was in the skulls, but Survivor Fever says paint......so for all we know it could be Kool-Aid. Something comes out of the skulls....that's for sure. Episode 7 Immunity Challenge: Flinging Flaming Fireballs One Survivor from each tribe compete in a competition that involves using an atlatl or jai alai type stick to fling fireballs into a field of markers.
A pic of Lisi doing the IC challenge
A pic of Rocky (James) with the challenge instrument and I love the "BIG PROBLEM" words across his pic. And, obviously, Ravu loses this IC since James is getting the boot and going to the jury as it's first member.

First Rob gone from TAR and now Rocky gone from Survivor? WOO HOO!!! Now maybe I can enjoy another of my favorite shows again. I'm in that minority as well...I think CND and Sherbabe got it right...two peas an all that... They could be brothers...same arrogance...same ignorance...

They are not remotely comparable IMO. For one thing, Rob and Amber have a lot of fans. I don't see a lot of fans for Rocky.

Fan base or no, I just plain don't like either of 'em. I see far too much arrogance in both of 'em to even find them mildly amusing.

Well looking at this board, I'm not sure I see a lot of positive comments for Rocky but there are a lot of people who enjoy Rob and Amber and have said so. Anyway, I generally don't take these shows too seriously (though I have to admit that I find Rocky's displays rather hard to watch). As I've said before, I like Rob a lot more with Amber than without Amber so maybe that is the difference for me.

I enjoy Rob but can't find anything nice about Rocky. I don't think that a lot of people get Rob's sense of humor, but get it or not, I don't find him to be mean spirited...Rocky is just plain cruel
