Maybe the sent Alexis home as a strategic move jury-wise. If they had blindsided Natalie, it may have cost them her jury vote, but with Alexis they can at least claim they chose her because of her knee? I really don't know.

Loved it when Jeff asked if anyone had the HII and Amandas reply "About that Jeff?" was priceless

Also how she pointed out she didn't have it at the time she emptied her bags so she didn't lie! I'm chatty tonight, lol.

This time around, maybe Amanda won't even have to say much to win the Jury, should she made the F3(F2?)!! I'd say the Jury thoroughly enjoyed her performance tonight. It should be easy for the Favs to target the Fans now. Parv proved she is loyal. Cirie said she wants the three of them to F3. The minute Erik NOT win IC, should be when he's sent home. I don't feel bad for him now after the way he treated Amanda.

We're all charged up Amanda tonight, Herm, don't worry about it. I like the sing-song and dance moves she presented the HII also!

Men have egos - women use HII's! That's just how it is! Who gets further in the game?!?

With the exception of James leaving, that was by far one of the best episodes ever! I still love James. I honestly didn't understand why he would be the last person invited to a family dinner in that question game. He would be more than welcome at my house. I think one of the things that makes James have such a great physique is that he gets a lot of it by plain old hard work and not just from a gym. He also has the coordination and dexterity that come from working for your muscle that a lot of guys who only lift weights lack. Add the fact that he seems to be a genuinely nice guy with a good sense of humor, and you've got one heck of a man. I didn't want Amanda or Parv to win before, but after tonight, I think any one of the 3 fave women deserve to win. They have just made some incredible moves in this game. Natalie is just too obnoxious for me to root for. She has gone from ruthless to just sort of insufferable. But she did make me happy when I got to see her reaction to Amanda's HII lolol.

Yay for Amanda using the HII! Amanda for the win!!! Of course, if everyone was telling Jason and Ozzy at camp that they were voting them out, I kinda think they would have used it too. I think they should have gotten rid of Natalie first, since Alexis won't be winning any physical immunities with her bad leg.

I am all for Amanda winning now. I want her & Ozzie to go off & have beautiful, physically fit childred together. I want Parv. to come in 2nd now.

does Parvati have something going with Natalie? She was really adamant in getting Amanda to vote off Alexis when Amanda wanted Natalie gone ...

As if Natalie needs any more unflattering clips, did you hear her with the chicken??? They decided to kill a chicken after they got back from the contest, and she said words to the effect, "I want to kill it!" -- with a big smile, then she stepped up to take the poor critter. Ewwwww!!!

I loved Erik's comments when his brother showed up - he pointed at Jeff and said " Look - it's Jeff Probst - standing right there!!" He is still the star-struck fan, even after being on the island for 31 days. He was just so excited to "show off" Jeff to his brother!

Yeah, and I loved Jeff laughing and saying "Erik, you're a freak." It was really funny the way he said it lol. I wish all the episodes were as enjoyable as tonight's was.

Erik is so easy to like - he, like Amanda will be in danger if they don't have the I necklace. Nat needs to be the next out - I like Erik.

Okay, I just watched the show and haven't read the posts yet, but I just have to say, best tribal council ever! I adore Amanda!

That really was one of the most awesome episodes ever. First, I thought that reward challenge was VERY telling about a lot of things. Not just on what the ANSWERS were, but also who was hacking away at each other's names. If Cirie is supposedly true to Amanda and Parvati, then why did she eliminate AMANDA over Alexis? There's something fishy there. James not over for dinner? I'd love to eat dinner off of James. Or just have him over for dinner. But I think maybe his manners are not what many would like. Not because he is rude, but maybe because he makes no apologies to anyone, and just says what he thinks. He'd come over for dinner and tell you that you're a bad cook!! LOL Mind you, I like that about him. Not to mention his ridiculously great body. Every time I see him, I think of that old black and what Janet Jackson video from so long ago. I forget the song. Natalie: UGH. I agree with everything Nerovh said. I find her insufferable to watch now. I hope she's next. I don't think she'll align with Erik, because in the previews they showed her saying she wanted to wring his neck. I think she WAS going to align with him and Parvati, and maybe he spills the beans, and screws it up or something? It looks like two groups were using HIM as the swing vote, and I wonder if he tries to flex some muscle, but only ends up outing the two sides to each other or something. I can't see why she'd want to wring his neck, if it's an easy eviction. I think she must be invested in him next week, and he screws it up. Otherwise she would be all like "whatever, he's gone, and I am sending him to go get a haircut" or some sort of comment containing too much bravado. I loved that Amanda found the idol, I thought it was BRILLIANT that she dumped her bag when she got home, and I loved when she played it. Even better is the fact that ALEXIS SENT HER THERE, only to have that COMPLETELY backfire on her!!!! hahahahahah!!!! IRONY! Buh-bye. I wonder if the HII will be put into play AGAIN. That would be interesting..... I am so sad James had to leave the game. I loved his dad, and you can see where James gets his great personality from. I just want to hug both of them. OK, that's all I've got in me for now. Will probably post more later. :-)

I have a feeling Parvati wanted Alexis out because she has a deal with Natalie. I wouldn't trust her to be loyal to Amanda long term. I like Erik too, I felt bad for him when he had been so honest and Amanda was manipulating the truth to make him look bad in front of the jury. I'd like an Erik/Cirie final two with Cirie to win.

Why in the world don't they get Cirie out of there? It it seems obvious to me that she is very intelligent and will probably pull off the win. She sits back smiling quietly, but I believe she is going to win this thing.

We haven't been watching Survivor this season because with so much going on we just don't have the time or interest. Occassionally I poke my head in this area to see whats going on. I've seen bits and pieces of a few shows but that's been about it. Tonight we're both sick and spent the day just lounging around and Darren asked what was on tv. I said Survivor and we flipped over to it. We had a blast watching it, lol. The whole show was great from James' dad to Eric excitedly pointing out Jeff Probst to his brother to Amanda looking so sad sitting there at tribal council. We were debating her having the HII and had pretty much decided she didn't til she said, "About that Jeff." Don't know much about the relationships and all, but the jury certainly seemed to enjoy the fact that she had it. We didn't get not inviting James to dinner either, we both liked him first time around and what we saw of him tonight, why wouldn't they invite him? We were sorry to see him go because of an injury. That was one heck of an entertaining show and if not the best one, certainly one of the best ones I've seen in a long while!

I think because she's unathletic, therefore a great person to go up against in F3. As well, if you're looking to pull off something diabolical, chances are Cirie is on board to help. With so few people left, Cirie doesn't have many people to flip to. Cirie's chances are the same with whichever group she aligns with, so nobody considers her a threat, but more of a number on their side, and someone they can beat in final immunity.

After tonight show I'm totally on the Amanda to win couch!!! I thought she did a great job acting all sad about being voting out. Loved everybody's faces when she pulled out the HII. This was one of the best show ever!!!!!
