Did they ever show how Shambo's chicken soup came out? Two or three hours is a long time to boil a chicken unless it is a tough old rooster.

Pretty sure they didn't, Catfat. Few hours at a hard boil. Doesn't sound like chicken soup to me.

Shambo behaves like a drama queen IMO. She's just like the HS girls, except that she went to a different high school--plays the same game but with a different mascot. Sorry to see one of my favorite man candies gone; at least Jaison and Mick, both super smart and both really cute, are still there. Jaison's advice about booting John over Shambo's objections was very astute; I'm guessing she will be gone sooner rather than later. Did I mis-see? When Mick was talking about getting rid of Russell, was Natalie also in the "tent"? If so, it might be just a trial balloon session.

I think this is the first show I've really enjoyed in a long time. I'm loving the blindsides. If it's Russell next week, all the better! Shambo is entertaining me although I admit she'd drive me nuts in person on that island. If I didn't know better I'd swear she's cooking magic mushrooms out there. I'm hoping she makes final 2 or 3 at least. And I really liked the way Jaison stood up for her. He's my 2nd choice. Mick? Forgot the guy even existed but if he wants to help ouster Russell, put him in 3rd place for me please. I don't care for Dave but I wouldn't complain if he ends up in final 3.

Another episode, another time I didn't notice Brett. Shame to see John go. He was indeed good eye candy. Seeing his face drop on the second vote even prompted an awww from my dh. Next please can we get rid of the awful Shambo? Yep, it looked like the trailers had people talking about getting out Russell. They've teased us that way before though, so I don't really believe it.

I haven't seen this epi yet, but I'm assuming Jeff mentioned after Tribal Council that the II is going back into the game? Is anyone else annoyed by their choice to do that this year? I mean, I hated how they kept doing Exile Island, so I was glad they ditched that this year, but this whole continuing to put the idol back into play. I find it annoying. Some people think Russel is smart and "awesome" because he keeps finding it. I think it's BS. I'd like to see how far he could have gotten in this game without the II every week. As far as I think, they should only had the two II one at each camp and once they were gone, they should have stayed gone. I just don't think it should be given to the Survivors as a crutch every week.

Trueheart, the HII wasn't played tonight, so it's not going back into the game - it's still in the game.

Oh, thanks for the info Merrysea. But if someone had played it, we all know they would have "put it back into play" *rolls eyes* I really don't like that this year.

Re: the chicken. I think when you kill a fresh chicken, you normally hang it for a few days for the meat to soften up. Otherwise it's to tough. The same thing with beef and all other meat. Something in the muscles need to break down to soften it up. The soup must have come out ok, otherwise if Shambo screwed it up, they would have shown it. The others were patient because they got to eat at the auction. dave was very cranky (can't blame him) because he didn't get to eat at all.

Did Dave even bid on anything? If he didn't eat it is because of himself!

My love for Russell will never waver but I think last nite was the first time he has made a mistake in the game. John will never vote for him now and I think John will rally troops at LL to not vote for him. He should have taken John to the end, the old Galu (most of the jury) wouldnt vote for John because of his betrayal to their side on the Laura vote. He also probably lost Shambo's vote due to her blindside, she is another one that he could have taken to end and won against. Last nite Russ gave away a mil, imo. I dont think John would have betrayed Russ, I think he would have kept the idol a secret. I just felt so sorry for Dave last night but like Russ said they shouldnt listen to him. I wish they would have kept the Dave vote, esp since he could be a challenge threat.

I agree Pamy. Russel may be surprised when Dave goes on an immunity winning run and they can't vote him out when they want to. I think Russel would have been better served keeping John as John doesn't seem to have tight ties to any of his former team mates. I supposed his being a lone wolf does make him kind of dangerous, but I think Dave is more dangerous and more liked by the Jury so he should have gone home.

Russell told Jaison that he thought he could "control" Shambo, but Shambo is completely controlled by her own emotions and stubborness. I think Russell is mistaken if he thinks he can keep Shambo in line.

Roxip, Dave did bid on a couple items but always was out bid. I didnt see Russ bid on anything. Dalton's recap at EW is funny at spot on this week. to find his recap, go to think in the Jeffs blog thread at the end of Jeffs blog theres a link to Dalton's.

John is sitting in for Dalton this week and wrote the blog. It's pretty good. He certainly is aware of where he went wrong. 20324439%2C00.html,http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20324439,00.html

I think Russell was just laying low, and didn't want to cause bad feelings by outbidding someone. The starvation thing doesn't seem to bother him as much as others, he already had the immunity idol so he didn't need another clue or help at the next challenge; and he'd apparently rather see one of the women shower. I'll bet tho if he knew he could buy the apple pie and give it to others he would have done that in a NY minute.

I can never link to sites with all those commas either. This link goes to Jeff's blog, and if you scroll down to just before the video clip, you can click the link on there to go to Dalton's blog: http://popwatch.ew.com/2009/12/04/jeff-probst-blogs-survivor-samoa-episode-12/ He's funny.

I just read it -- thanks for pointing it out! Besides being adorably cute, John is funny! Why didn't we get to see Funny John on the island?! I feel like we were cheated big time.
