Did anyone else seem to feel that the players already knew Russell? If they starting filming only 10 days after the previous show, how did they know him?

That's a good question Muffin. I'm going to take a stab here and say they met at Production Camp. There was the big interview that was done by Jenna Morasca, and originally I had read that she was on location.......but later found out her interview was done here, in the States, not on location. Since all but Russell knew each other before, I don't think they had to be sequestered like in the past, and have bans made to them about talking on the way to their campsites. Also, Natalie was supposedly right there with them and didn't get to play, because the question on whether Courtney would pass or not wasn't answered until almost the last minute.

Russell sure seemed to be in awe of all of them, huh?

Late joining - What happened to Richard Hatch? While watching the pre-game show, I had the impression that he would be in this allstar line-up as a villian. Didn't he say something about going head-to -head with Russell?

Richard could not get permission from the parole board to leave the US. So no Hatch in this version of All-Stars.

In Jeff's blog he seemed to appreciate Sandra's attitude of "hey if it is not my name on the slip, I don't care who is voted off.. Tell me who everyone wants and I write that name" ... yes somehow that method does seem to work, but it baffles me. Everyone else has their own strategy, and own reasons for voting someone off... how does Sandra line her ducks up and make sure that she has a favorable favorable group to help her make it to the end?

I guess in Survivor it's better to be a floater than to ride coattails.

Or at least best not to have made big promises like "you and me, final two", but then vote the person out late enough to be on the jury. I suppose someone on the jury facing someone who never seemed to target them and who never promised they'd go to the end together would choose the former.

But of course some jurors are big on who made big moves and then it depends on their definition of big moves.

I can see Sandra's rationale.. we've seen people who fought to save someone and then get voted out because of that, or who waffled about booting someone and then were considered dangerous.. same with those who don't at least pretend to want to ally with a person.

Walking the razor's edge, for sure.

Big moves or floater? under the radar or upfront?... I guess it all depends on who is out there with you and a number of other factors... Part of the strategy is figuring out whether to be a floater or align with others...

I would probably align with others... simply because I would feel safer feeling that others had my back... But then, I would be so concerned with lining up my picks and I would be nervous if my dominoes didn't fall as planned... I guess that is why Sandra is so good at this game... She has a whoever attitude. Yet she seems to stay very calm... She takes it in stride and one day at a time.

Yup, there are a lot of variables on how and who wins Survivor. From season to season the variables shift. I think this season is ripe for a more "anyone but me" player. If the majority can always count on her she'll always be safe until it's too late. As long as she doesn't ruffle any of their "survior egos" she should be on for more episodes. I liked her a lot in her season and hope she outlasts Russell.

Jerri was very much unliked by me and I'm so surprised I'm rooting for her to stick around, at least longer than Russell.

I know I would not be thinking "anybody but me!" I would be thinking "EVERYBODY but me!" Of outwit, outplay, and outlast the third one takes home the prize!

Ah yes..I find myself not liking James and Rupert this time.. and liking Jerri more than I did in the past (and I really didn't like her in her season!)

I liked Sandra before and still do like her.

Didn't like Parvati, ever and like her less and less. And Amanda, just not feeling her at all.

Rob, started out not liking him in his season and REALLY have liked him since he went on TAR and since then.

Russell.. probably never will like him all that much, yet there are people I'd like him to take out this season.

I was another one that didn't care for Jerri in her season, but I really do like her this seasons. Parvati could be on this show another 10 times and I still wouldn't like her.

Jeff has said something in two of his Blogs so far about "Why can't Russell and Rob see what an unbeatable alliance they would be instead of butting heads for who is the leader."

Well, I'm thinking what a great alliance it would be if Parvati and Jerri put their heads together instead of butting heads.

JP really blows it in his blog cuz he talks about how great it would be for Rob and Russ....so obviously it never happens...poor non spoilers that read his blog

Yes...........and............la de da de da de da!

What is more interesting is that Colby is in the final five, the only one from the original Heroes Tribe. Considering that he was sided with Stephenie and Tom, and Stephenie is gone and Tom has a target on his back, it's amazing that Colby lasted that long.

LOL Pamy... I read into his statement just the opposite... I thought Jeff was setting up the stage for it to happen...LOL

Seriously, I love to be spoiled...but I didn't see that as a spoiler at all...just a comment on the current status... I thought it was a shame that neither of them saw the potential either..

Hopefully, that is what was meant and it isn't really a spoiler at all... ;)

Ginger...oooohhh didnt even think about that! and LOL also means he must kiss Jeri's ass to make it that far hahahahaha or he goes on an Immunity run..again! I hope not, that was sure a boring season when he kept winning

Kep, LOL funny how we thought differently about it! I dont think JP meant as a spoiler and maybe I think it was only cuz I know one leaves way before the other :-)

I found this on the "Fans of Reality TV" discussion board for Survivor and so far it's been accurate.


SurvivorsUnite goes so far as to give a complete boot list. In order, from first out to the last juror: Sugar, Stephenie LaGrossa, Randy Bailey, Cirie Fields, Tom Westman, Tyson Apostol, James Clement, Rob Mariano, (jury begins), Benjamin “Coach” Wade, Courtney Yates, J.T. Thomas, Amanda Kimmel, Candice Woodcock, Danielle DiLorenzo, Rupert Boneham, Colby Donaldson, Jerri Manthey.

Another poster, SurvivorsReadyGo, claims that Sandra is not in the final three, but leaves the game early. Instead, Amanda joins Parvati, Russell and Jerri in the final four. Although SurvivorsReadyGo seems sincere, he/she has no track record, so the credibility of the information seems lower.

As a veteran follower of spoilers, the Watcher gives SurvivorsUnite’s and missyae’s information a high degree of credibility, but we’ve been misled before. However, if the first couple of boots go as predicted, I would take the rest to the bank

Shen.. ............


that same exact boot order has been out there for a long long time.

I didn't Realize The Watcher was in more than just our paper :-) He's SORT of a veteran although I well remember he didn't even watch Project Runway at first.. I got to say told ya so when he then fell in love with it (not sure where he stands anymore.. he doesn't get much space in our dumbed down newspaper these days. But I had to convince him not to send out spoiler info on multiple shows in one email.. like some people will spoil like crazy for Survivor and NOT want to be spoiled for TAR.)

So far the boots have been exactly correct. Too bad; I like some people who go early.

We already have SurvivorsUnite's list in this thread on October 27th, but that was the first time I had heard anything that SurvivorsReadyGo claimed. Thanks, Shenanigan

Oh true!!

The second part is different.. guess I just don't trust it so much..

hmm or to be honest, don't want to believe it since the only bright spot was if Sandra won over Parv.

That's what's keeping me interested this time around. I don't usually like reruns, but if Sandra beats the flirt and the con-man, I'm there.

Indeed! But I was sort of resisting that new potential spoiler, just because I'd accepted the boot order, not been very happy with it overall and made peace with the idea of at least Sandra winning.. but that doesn't make it so.
