I dislike Coach so much that I yelled at the TV last night. I can't remember the last time I did that!

Lilfair, I don't know about the girls.
Deb actually thinks his crap don't stink.
Erinn is fighting for her life -- they really rather have been able to vote her off last night.
Sierra was labeled as one to be cut any time. They have not shown us if that's changed yet. But I truely doubt if any of these three ladies will dare starting a revolution in that atmosphere.

Jerry must've been really sick. I think they should have made some rice for him. Not knowing what his problem was but hearing him say how his stomach felt, would be enough for me to stop pushing the beans for a while.
Poor guy didn't get to do anything. Makes me wonder if he shouldn't have worried about showing his strength or step up and be the leader, or at least the Asst. Coach. (In the world according to coach! )

Ee, I don't know what it is, but I find myself bored as well. Maybe because it's still so new and we don't know people? Maybe because so many of the people are too nice?? Maybe because the novelty is wearing off? Maybe because my dd leaked through her diaper last night??

I had it on last night and taped it as well. There is usually too much commotion in this house at that time so I have to watch it after kids are in bed. But I have no desire to watch my tape. I saw a bit of the challenges and saw that Jerry got voted off. Didn't see/hear too much more than that. And I just don't feel the need to spend 50 minutes watching it....

I have to watch Survivor every other season or I get completely bored with it. It's on too much and it's oversaturating, imho. I didn't watch last season, so this one is "fresher" to me. I'm not at all bored.

I'm never bored by Survivor. However, I am pissy when they vote off my favorite player, like last night!

I wonder if Coach has any idea yet that he is NOT coming across well on the show. That thing about making eye-contact with everyone on the truck and getting across that they should take everything they could off the truck? That sounded ridiculous and kinda batty. And then sticking himself out there saying how he should be the leader instead of Brendan was arrogant as all get-out.

As much as I dislike him, I did get a few laughs from him. Like when he said he had been "practicing" the "evil" look Erinn had on her face. In the first place, Erinn just looked relieved and happy, not "evil", and in the second place, why on earth would you "practice" that? I also laughed when he was talking about the kind of people he "surrounds" himself with. I actually yelled at him, "Dude, this is Survivor! You surround yourself with whoever Mark Burnett tells you to!"

I was disappointed about Jerry being voted out.

I am enjoying Brendan and Taj (thank you DRA).

The coach is there to entertain JP. haha

Who knows, maybe the coach will be taken to the end because no one would vote for him to win?

Coach needs to stay. He is so entertaining. Coach has no idea how idiotic he sounds. He is so clueless it's fun to watch.

I think that Jerry knew that his time was over. He truly looked sick and you can't keep a sick player. I don't look upon it as a matter of a lack of respect but rather just simple necessity. And did they know he was a veteran? I haven't heard enough of their conversations to see whether he revealed this or not.

I would have killed Coach when he was saying that the others had been "conditioned" to put up with people like Erinn. But in his higher concept of reality that he exists on he just can't tolerate it...WHAT THE HECK! I can't believe they just didn't boot his higher butt right into the jungle.

Tyson's confessionals cracked me up, I love how he just plays along with Coach but really thinks of him as acting like a tool. LOL

Would have liked to get to know Jerry. We barely saw him. He must have been much sicker than it showed. We have seen sick survivors before and they looked like death warmed over. Jerry's military training must have helped him to not appear sick or weak.

I told Bill (20 yr Navy vet) that Jerry said that was rougher than the Army and Bill rolled his eyes and laughed. I would love for Bill to play this game.

eeyore, I am bored as well, I am to the point I don't pay any attention until they merge, LOL. I just play the show in the background while I do other stuff.

I think Jerry caught some type of parasite, his description didn't sound like it was just a little thing, it sounded very bad. I was unhappy he was voted off, but happy for him that he wouldn't be sick anymore, that had to be just awful.

I thought he did really well appearing to be okay, I would have been having a pity party in the hut, LOL.

It wouldn't surprise me if they had parasites. I noticed earlier that before they had fire, they were just filling their water bottles out of their "water source." That's a good way to get parasites!

Really bummed. Jerry brought a fun dignity to the show.

I also love Brendan and Taj and hope their plans work because it is fresh

I love the idea of two members from each tribe forming a secret foursome (especially if they make it to the merge) That should make Coach's head spin.

This was a must-read interview, Jerry answers a LOT of the questions. I liked him so much, really sorry to see him go.

Not surprising that at EI with Taj "Brendan said he would inform Sierra" to bring her along with the 4-way alliance.

In the beginning, I believe it was Sierra that shared her first day HII Clue with Brendan and they dug that big fake "fire pit".

I want Coach to be blindsided at Tribal. That would be fun, or as Tyson says "I love seeing people cry when you crush their dreams."

Biscotti--Thanks for the links to the after interview.

I won't have time to watch them anytime soon, just did a quick update on here but I was wondering if he mentioned his illness and recovery, what it was ect...

Thanks a bunch in advance for the info...

I finally got a chance to watch the show last night. I actually like Coach better than Tyson.
Coach saying he practiced Erinn's look and then showing Tyson was hilarious.

I also really like the idea of the secret alliance of Taj, Brendan, Steve and Sierra. I hope they make it that far.

And I hope Taj finds the HII.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I didn't think Jerry was really hiding his sickness very well. I was sorry to see him go, but at that point, he was the weakest player. After the challenge, he was saying he was done, so he kind of asked for it.

Sandy is just driving me cuckoo. LOL

Lol, Bee ~ Sandy drove me nuts the first night but now they seem to show her so little that I can handle it.

I really hope this doesn't become the season of Coach. While he accuses others, like Candace, of being a cancer, he is the cancer. First he instructs everyone to not go off and discuss who is at fault after the challenge but then does exactly that himself. He then declares Erinn as "evil" and the rest just go along with it. Then the comment about his own purity and not being to be around the likes of others. If his team doesn't turn on him, I'm going to root for them all to be gone.

YVW Everyone!
I really like the interviews RealityTV does each week. They always ask good questions.

Mizinvanccouver, WRT Jerry's illness, from another interview in the "Jeff's Blogging" thread:

From Reality News Online:

"RNO: After you were voted off, did you see a doctor?
Jerry: Yes, I sure did. The doctor gave me some type of stomach medication and in a couple days I was back to getting over whatever virus I had going on in my stomach.
RNO: So it was a virus?
Jerry: Yeah. I couldn't get rid of it while I was in the game. I tried several different things but nothing worked. They made a little potion for me with tea leaves and that didn't help either."

I just watched last week's episode and...

1. Ben. He needs to get over himself. "He made eye contact and with his eyes told people what to bring?" WTH? And while the faces he made mimicking Errin were kind of funny, he constant harping on it was childish. He also seems to do really badly in challenges, so he ain't all that. Oh yeah, if he was so adamant about getting Erinn out, why did he vote for Jerry?

2. Tyson. Turning into a mini-Coach. I don't like him much either, but I think he'd not be half bad if Ben wasn't around.

3. Taj and Brendon. I hope they get to EI again together and he can tell her where he found the HII. And kudos to him for hiding it somewhere else (as in if you take it back to camp and you have sneaky tribemates who go thru your stuff, you're busted!).

4. Jerry. Bee, I agree. He didn't hide it at all. His constantly laying around in the shelter, his response when asked if he wanted beans... definitely not subtle. I was sorry to see him leave though because I did like him.

As to whomever asked what it was Ben had written on his vote to evict Jerry, it was "pimp daddy Jerry."

I hope Ben gets kicked off soon. I don't think I could stand many more weeks of him and his ego.
