Anyone figure out what Jeff did to this blog this time that he wants to know if we noticed? I guess I didn't. . . .

He didn't mention Coach, Vegaschris Does anyone think it strange that Debbie waited until the next day to take a shower? I guess if I had a nice clean bed waiting for me and hadn't bathed for a month, I'd be all over that.

Aurora, maybe its a water issue where they are located. I remember Sierra saying something about not being able to take a shower until the following morning.

Debbie said that it was too cold to take a shower. Being in tents, they have no insulation or heating, so it would be hard to get out of the shower wet when it's cold.

Oh maybe so. I just figured it was a water issue since Sierra said she waited until the next day to take a shower.

Are you talking about something from another thread? I didn't read anything about showers in Jeff's blog...? BTW, I'd take a shower before I'd jump into a nice clean bed. I don't care if it's cold or not (and I hate the cold), but if I'd been without showers for 30+ days you can damn well bet I'm gonna shower and shave my legs and pits!

I'm with you, Costacat. I do a lot of camping and have taken a lot of cold showers. I can't imagine what it would feel like to not have bathed for a month. Yes, I forgot what thread I was in. I came to the forum to ask the question about the bath and saw Vegaschris's question and answered it and then forgot to go to the Ponderosa thread.

Ok I had no friggin' idea that this blog even existed. I came back to this site because anytime I feel the need to chat about Survivor I come here. And then I discovered Jeff's blog! I am only halfway through the episodes but I LOVE him. He is so funny and I love how he makes so much fun of Coach. I think he says he loves the guy so much just so it doesn't seem as mean that he is seriously laughing his ass off at him every blog. Anyway, I work third shift at a hotel and reading this has been an amusing way to pass my time, so thank you TVclubhouse posters! Oh and I seriously laughed out loud in the hotel lobby when I read your comment, Nerovh. Coach would not answer jury questions. He would simply signal the jury with his eyes that they should vote for him and the million would be his. AAaaaaaahahahahaha!!!!! That is so funny! I am just happy there weren't any guests hanging out here at 4 in the morning!

Yes! I am glad that Jeff said this- And Debbie, don't think I don't see you hiding there in the brush. Debbie: ''I'm too old for this.'' No, you're not too old. You're just frustrated that a 46-year-old woman got busted by an annoying 23-year-old. We all saw the episode. We all heard what we heard. You and Coach lied. Period. Exactly. Ugh. I was so pissed when I had to watch those two lie their asses off. And I swear i don't get all of their venom towards Sierra and why she has always had to prove herself. It is so frustrating!!! Honestly, I have been on Sierra's side ever since her and Sandy came back to camp day 1 and Sierra decided to help the camp rather than looking for the HII. All the people got back and they were all. "NO. She's out. She didn't bond by experiencing that grueling trek with us." I just wish that team could have seen that Sandy over on the other tribe didn't do jack. Maybe they would have had more appreciation for Sierra. And yes, I seriously was yelling at the TV screen when Coach flat out lied about Sierra coming to him to try to recreate a Timbira alliance. It's not even like he was asked. He seriously went out of his way to create this false accusation. And then he went all "I'm honorable." What BS. God, I hate players like that. The ones who lie and cheat just like everyone else but then they try to say that they are "honorable" and they have "integrity". It's like they REALLY believe it about themselves and I can't help but wonder if they are delusional. I was so angry when Sierra got voted out. All I could do was yell at the TV screen that I hoped JT and Stephen were watching the show and could finally see that Sierra had been telling them the truth the whole time. AND she has honestly been more loyal and true to her word than most people on that show. So eh. I was pleased as punch that Jeff mentioned that in his blog.

I just love that after 20 seasons JP still has such joy for being part of this game. I love his blogs. I know that he loves the family stuff and poo poos anyone that doesn't. When I saw Taj grab his arm in excitement my first thought was JP is probably fighting back tears for her. I love that he is sappy like that!

While I appreciate a coach-less blog for a change, why now? I was dying laughing Thursday night and couldn't wait to read what Jeff would say about Coach's claim "they call me The Dragonslayer". You missed a golden opportunity, Jeff

ITA! I thought the same thing. I havent read the comments under the blog to see if people asked why he made it coach free after such funny coach moments

Probst has already commented on the dragon slayer. No need to go into it for three blogs running.

I think he did a dragonslayer one when "coach" first called himself that. And didn't he go off on that last week in his blog, with a new show with "coach"? Jeff's mentioned it before, I know.

Episode 13 blog: http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/05/jeff-probst-b-2.html Warning: This one's mostly about Coach. I think Jeff has a good point about Coach choosing to be without fire on Exile Island because he was afraid he'd be embarrassed if he couldn't start a fire.

After reading this blog, I think Jeff's a bit delusional about Coach! "if you saw him on the street you wouldn’t be able to help yourself. You’d approach him so fast you’d lose your shoes" See, delusional! I'd run the other way.

I think what it is, is that Jeff is absolutely fascinated at how absolutely delusional Coach is. Kinda like a a car accident...you don't want to look, but you just HAVE to.

I think Jeff has valid points about Ben in terns of the show and being a figure folks want to wtach--mainly to curse him and wanting him off the show, next as a character. His delusional stories and the way he presents everything--so dramatic makes for good TV and for a good character. Rupert was the same--a bigger than life pirate character he played well and it fit him well. I think Jeff's comments about people running up to ben on the street has to do with charisma. I'm betting he has a ton of charisma. You almost have to in order for a character to show up so big on a TV screen. For how down to earth Rupert showed himself to be, Ben showed just as strongly what he is. It's that essence that MB wants for someone being on Survivor, because it's a big part of what gets up to watch every week. I think that is what Jeff's speaking of. I don't think Ben is going to be Jeff's next pal though be any means.

I thought that Erin called coach out because she felt he was trying to get JT to not send him to exile and she knew that it would be her if not Coach.

The problem, though, is that Rupert was likable. "Coach"? Not so much.
