Heh - "Kenneth" is Benjamin or "Coach/Conductor/RenaissanceManSavant." Sorry bout that. If someone grabbed his ponytail and pulled until it touched the back of his knees it wouldn't hurt my feelings. He could even spin it positively, like it connected him physically with the bows used by his native American ancestors to hunt with. The part where it snaps back might not be fun for him, he might not be able to spin it as a spiritual bonus, but oh well. I would help my spirits for sure.

Someone on Survivor is from San Diego. Any idea who? I looked at their bios and none show San Diego... (There was an article in the paper recently how we've got a connection to Survivor, AI, and TAR. Apparently, when they are looking to cast these shows, San Diego is a quick road trip to find potential contestants hanging around our local bars. Bleah.)

Wow! Only one page of comments? Ok, so this is weird then? I thought so! See I know I haven't been back to this board in a long while but when I came on here to post about the new episode of Survivor Thurs night I was shocked to see only a handful of comments before mine! I just don't remember it being like that here. I always thought we had a huge group commenting on the show.*shrugs*

First night of a season, I don't usually have much to say, I guess.. and I actually didn't watch the show until this morning. Sydney was also dragging in the competition along with Carolina. I guess Sandy won't have to look for the hii now because it was only good for that first time the tribe went to tribal. I also find her an odd mix.. I have to admire her a bit but she's really quite irritating and somewhat cluelsss, so far. I was also shocked tht she was only 53.

Sea, except Sandy might not get that concept either. !! Who knows, maybe a P.A. had to step in and explain it to her? hehe I know I'm supposed to like her, but I just can't handle her crassness. At some points last night, it felt like she would have been scratching faces or throwing punches if only the rules allowed it ... Costa, for one thing, Freetime... & myself ended up having the whole show spoiled in one post each. Have we done it in the real time during the show's airing, we each could have produced 4-5 posts. But you guys are right. It's been like this for the past few seasons now. Last night I was here before and after 8pm ET wondering where every one was hiding??

GAL, as a music director and a brass player myself, I am trying soooo hard to give Ben a chance! But if he literally tells his tribe mates about his own three dimensions/or whatever he calls them, I might have to jump ship or at least go underground! That's so embarrassing of him referring to himself as Renaissance man, Coach to college girl Soccer and Music/Art director to a Symphony Orchestra. BTW, when you listed all the wonderful things that coach has ever done, you forgot he was once labeled Best Trumpet player under 18 y.o.in the whole USA!

Sea, did the note say the HII was only good for the first TC? I don't remember that and Sandy hid the note so she could search later.

While they don't have palm trees in KY, I am pretty sure they have "paces" - oh, and moisturizer - just sayin"

OK, finally watched my taped episode. So I can add to the comments. Sandy: why oh why wasn't she voted off?!! I think I'd rather look at Mickey Rourke than her! Her facial expressions and reactions are odd/creepy/weird. How on earth did those four or five guys in that tribe vote off the girl with such PHENOMENAL breasts 3 days earlier than necessary. Cariline must have been that bad with her nagging, for them to not want to put up with great breasts for only three more days. I can't get over how little Sandy knows. Seriously? You don't know what PACES are? Like, she is every bit a fulfillment of the backwoods stereotype. I really hope it was a case of editing, because I genuinely can't handle watching her all season. Ponytail guy has got to go. I hope the strep throat girl stays, although I've HAD strep throat, and it's not like that. So far, the only people I like are Taj and Jerry.

LOL TNT!!! I was thinking the same thing!!! Eeyore, Dalton's EW review mentions how the editors gave us extra boob shots of her during this ep thus tipping him off she was the one to go. LOL I dont feel like we even got to know most of the players. They really should have a 2 hr premeire or at least an hour show showing all of them pre island

Good idea Pamy. A 2-hour season opener is a very good idea. LOL about Dalton's tip-off. Or should I say "titoff"? ;-P

LOL GAL! For me also, it is so early, I don't have so much to say yet either. Re: Sierra, with the strep throat, I've had it and felt I was going to die. It was awful. I was thinking how hard it must be for her out there with strep throat. At least she is on antibiotics and will feel better soon. When I had it as a kid though, not so bad. I think it is probably terrible if not caught early enough.

Pamy, I have always wished that both Survivor and TAR were 2-hour premieres. TAR really, really needs to be a 2-hour premiere. CBS... are you listening?

ITA agree about the two hour premieres for both shows. I was ticked that after the challenge all we got to see was the orange camp and then TC. I wanted to see what the black tribe was like after the challenge last thursday night. But even more than Survivor they REALLY need a 2-hour premiere of TAR. Totally. There are WAY to many friggin teams and stuff going on to fit into one hour. The first couple epis always seem really chaotic. In fact I have a friend who refuses to watch until they have pared down some of the teams. She said it isn't enjoyable to watch until she can see more of each team. I would definitely prefer a 2-hour premiere and maybe a few more longer episodes after that. I mean come on! Look at Biggest Loser! It happens to annoy the crap out of me that those episodes are 2 hours EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK. They could stand to give some more time to their other top two reality shows.

I think that in Benjamin's case, "Renaissance Man" may translate to "Mr. Know It All Man". You know, Benjamin and Sandy really should be on the same team, since she seems not to know anything and he seems to think he knows everything. I'd love to watch a conversation between these two.

I always thought Survivor was like NASA. If you show up sick in the days before the launch, you are replaced (like in the true to life movie Apollo 13) . Strep throat is a contagious disease and I can't believe they let her continue. I guess it would make a good show seeing 15 castaways with fever and close to death from trying to survive in 110 degree heat.

TNT, ITA secret swan. It wins emmys and they still dont seem to give it more attention. I know a reunion show would get ratings. Naja, very true, I hadnt even thought about it being contagious. I am surprised they didnt pull her. Maybe by the time they were ready to start the game she didnt have the fever. They all get there a week ahead, I think

Lexie, I want to say yes. The mail said they had two choices, work on building the camp to curry favor or look for the hii which could be used in the 1st TC to stay in the game. But then again they are big on playing with words. It didn't spell out and say "This hii is only good at the first TC." Eeyor, I'm with you. I rather watch Joe and JT squirm when Carolina talks than feeling myself dodging when Sandy starts her "rant against the tribe". However, we were told at least one of the 4 guys on the Jalapao is gay. He happened to be the first one advocating for Sandy as well.
