Pamy, you are assuming those are real die-hard fans as CBS is trying to feed us? OTOH, I think they knew James was on the Jury and Amanda F3. Since they're no past winners in the Favs, it's perfectly normal for the Fans to gathered that Amanda was not a winner either. Eeyor, other than the first two ii which were only good in the first TC, there's no hii on the camps. That is a real new twist which would be revealed next Thursday.

I think JF was lying about wanting to go home. I think he wanted off the show, because he realized he had no chance against this group. But he knows the rules and knew he wouldn't be able to go home until after filming ended, no matter where he was in the order.}

I think they are just going to switch tribes around. I don't think they will keep it Fans vs. Faves for very long. I HOPE it's a good twist though. I always like seeing how MB shakes the game up, from what they THOUGHT they knew.

That first time they had an exile island, were the HIIs on the island, or just the clues to the HIIs? I thought I remembered Yul digging one up while exiled.

http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20177009,00.html (Sorry, C&P is needed. I gooffed some how.) Dalton Ross wrote: <He's the one who did the web show with the winner girl before S:China, right?> Going into the challenge, it appeared that the high-spirited Faves were poised for a rout, but appearances can be deceiving. A few interesting things about this challenge. One, of course, was Eliza wiping out when her cart banged into a tree. I know it makes me a bad person to like to see people get obliterated in physical competitions, but I just don't care. Plus, I wiped out at the very same tree when I did a run-through of the challenge the day before. In fact, the stupid cart almost ran me over! Two other things you did not see on screen. First off, there was a whole other section of the challenge that got edited out. Before the tribes had to bash their cart through the wall of sticks, there was a section of tree stumps that had to be moved out of the way. (In the run-through, they were tied together with ropes, but they got rid of the ropes for the actual one.) Another nice tidbit: Jeff Probst had to stop the challenge at one point when some of the Favorites attempted to start sabotaging the Fans' cart. That's a no-no, and they got a stern talking-to from the host-with-the-most and suffered a brief time penalty because of it. I hope you all do not consider this spoiler. It's written after the first show, titled: ''Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites'': Fairplay Is Turned About. There's also a tidbit about Ami and Kathy(The fan who Yau happened to point the hii to) that didn't make the show.

Evidently Kathy has issues with gay people. If she's a true fan of the show, she would know that Ami is also gay (and I wouldn't put it past her to say something to Ami just as she did Eric).

And Amy will be the first one to put her in her place. I hope Kathy goes first. Buh-bye.

I don't know that she has an issue, does she? She was uninformed perhaps, but I don't think she expressed any negative feelings, just "I'm new to this" feelings. Or maybe I just wasn't concentrating enough, what did she say?

Kathy just seemed (to me) more like an uninformed person with no tact and no finesse than like someone who has real issues with gay people. The things she said made me cringe with embarassment for her, but she didn't seem to be mean-spirited or judgemental. I still hope she goes very soon, though. If she doesn't know enough about Survivor by now to know that Ms. Loud-Mouth-Crazy-Lady never makes it very far, then she deserves to go. edited to add: well, I just saw that article with the snippet about her and Ami. Hard to tell if she does or doesn't have issues, but I get the feeling Kathy would come off the worse in a confrontation with Ami.

in this day and age how is it that a 40 yr old woman has no clue she has been around a gay person?? I mean come on, where does she live? I loved when she said 'I have never met a gay man' and he said to her 'oh you HAVE you just didnt know it!' lol that's exactly what I thought.

Pamy, I agreed with what Chet said. I think she has issues with gay people and therefore maybe they don't tell her that he/she is gay. Kind of like Kail from Big Brother.

I've only lived in two cities in the US, and one of them was FULL of people who (think they) have never met anyone gay. Partly why we moved to where we are now!

It is kinda sad that people like Kathy still exists. There's a few ladies in church who are into match-making. I feel so bad for this one guy, but it's not my place to say anything! ...

I thought Chet handled the situation with a great deal of class - And this woman describes herself as "intellectually astute." Hmmmmm-

It wasn't just claiming she'd never met a gay person. She also said she'd never seen fake boobs. Seriously, how does someone make it into their 40's that protected? I have absolutely no empathy for Kathy, and really hope she goes and fast.

Well I don't think I've ever "known" anyone with fake boobs, although I dare say I've "seen" a few while out and about. Maybe she overstates things?(!!!) Didn't Jeff describe her as "wacky"? Seems to suit.

I'm in my mid-sixties and I'm sure I have run into gay people, but I honestly don't know when or where.

In fairness to Kathy, I guess it depends on what she means by "met". Throughout my life I have interacted with many people who I presume are gay and I am a fan of Ellen and other gay celebrities. However, when I think of people who I have actually met or know who are gay, the list narrows considerably down to probably about seven people. Which isn't a huge number for someone who lives in a big city. If I think hard I may be able to think of a few more.

The thing is that most folks don't flaunt their sexual predilictions or pecadillos. So people are just people. What, how, or who they do in the bedroom (or elsewhere for that matter) is usually not evident, and certainly not anyone else's beezwax. Unless they are eager for salacious publicity and go on reality shows where all bets are off with regards to their privacy. ETA, you could be sitting on the bus between two ordinary-looking women, the gal on your right could be a nun, (they don't all wear habits any more) and the gal on your left could be a professional dominatrix. But you can't tell because of what they are wearing and not sticking out in any way due to their behaviour. Once again, people are people, and don't always advertise their 'bizness'.

Hey mods (and fellow posters): Is there any way we could keep the "show" threads from having the word "spoiler" in the title? I use new messages and I don't read spoilers, so I keep breezing past this thread. Technically, anything in the general Survivor threads that have shown on the show are NOT spoilers. If someone hasn't seen the show once it has aired, it's THEIR fault they came in and got spoiled. But it's NOT a spoiler thread. Last year I think we put "Tonight's show" and the date in the thread title. I know everyone has their neuroses about threads, but this is just mine. I figured it can't hurt to ask. Thanks to the mods if they CAN remove the word "spoiler" from this thread.

Merrysea, I vote you should just go ahead start a new thread/space for Episode 2 with the correct title. After that, whoever wants to start the new one would have a mode to follow. Can always lock the thread until show time....

I think a lot of people think of Jonathan as someone who betrayed his alliance. But aren't we forgetting that he was the next one in his alliance to get voed off, and he knew it. When the opportunity came he had to take it, and he only had about 10 seconds to make up his mind. I never blamed him for that at all. He did what he had to do to stay in the game.
