Sandra and Parvati are brilliant players. Russell is good but he can't rattle them at all. His intimidation game doesn't work with them and I love their response when he tries. Best lines ever. It's incredibly amusing to watch.

Sandra and Parvati laying down and giggling over Russell's attempt to intimidate was probably on of my favorite moments in this game. The mocking was priceless. LOL I thought I saw steam coming out of his ears. Ponderosa was interesting. Rupert needs to chill and relax. Why would Rupert be smoking????

Watching Ponderosa... so Rupert really thought they had the votes to send Sandra home?! He doesn't realize that only he and Colby voted for Sandra, that even without the idol, he would have gone home??!!

Well Rupert thought that Russell had become his new BFF and Russell told him that he could pull Jerri in...

And Rupert must not be very good at math. He had 3 votes, so even if Russel had voted for Sandra, it would have been a tie without the idol. Don't they get one chance to revote after the tie? To be so confident you aren't going home is just foolish! I really liked Rupert, but I'm so over his whole "angry guy" thing. Courtney was right. You've been voted out 3 times now, get over it. LOL.

Well I think he might have been hoping that Russell would bring Jerri in as he said he would... But to be rely on that one is ... what did Jerri say "I'm gonna call it Stupid". I really liked Rupert in Pearl Islands... but his self righteous attitude has really gotten old for me.

Russell was not the first player to compete in two Survivor seasons, but I do believe he is the first to compete in two seasons back to back...without any significant rest period between the two... I know for sure he is the only player to go to his second season without knowing who won his first season

Amanda played her second season without knowing the results of China.

Rupert was the first Survivor to appear in two back-to-back seasons Pearl Islands and then All Stars.... (though he was not in the F2/3)

Amanda yes...Rupert...no... there was a season between the two season Rupert was in. I stand corrected for Amanda, but I think she had a longer rest period between the two seasons than Russell.

Survivor Pearl Islands: It was filmed in 2003 and debuted on September 18, 2003. Survivor All-Stars: It was filmed in 2003 and debuted on February 1, 2004

Kep, that is why I have an eerie (and sickening) feeling he'll win Heroes/Villians, because of what he said at the finale after 2 seasons were played: trying to get an admission that he was the best player ever.

Babyruth, that only means - if we interpret it that way (and I do too) - that he'll get to the finale. He can't know that he'll have won Heroes/Villains when it comes down to the votes. Plus he said he knew during the jury questioning for his first season that something had gone wrong, yet he still seemed to act as if he thought he'd won, and he didn't change his game for this H/V season. I'm not sure he can change his game, he can't control his ego/temper enough.

Bonbon is right that Rupert filmed two back-to-back seasons without a break. Pearl Islands would have finished airing sometime in December 2003, and in February 2004 they aired All-Stars, which was filmed immediately after Pearl Islands. In fact, Jeff said that the next two seasons they film will both be back-to-back - as it is more cost-efficient.

Then why is Vanuatu listed as Survivor 8? Right between Pearl Island as Survivor 7 and All Stars listed as Survivor 9? Something appears amiss here...

Vanuatu was the first season I watched, and I've seen every season since then. I didn't see All Stars.

Rupert Pearl Islands: filmed Jun 23 - Jul 31, 2003; finale aired Dec 14, 2003. All-Stars: filmed Nov 3 - Dec 11, 2003; finale May 9, 2004. So Rupert had three months off between filming, and did not know whether he'd won Pearl Islands when he filmed All-Stars. Amanda and James Survivor China: filmed Jun 25 - Aug 02, 2007; finale Dec 16, 2007. Fans vs Favourites: filmed Oct 29 - Dec 06, 2007; finale May 11, 2008. So Amanda and James had nearly three months off between filming, and Amanda did not know whether she'd won China when she filmed Fans Vs Favs. Russell Survivor Samoa: filmed Jun 11 - Jul 19, 2009; finale aired Dec 20, 2009. Heroes vs Villains: filmed Aug 9 - Sep 16, 2009; finale airs May 16, 2010. So Russell had about three weeks off between filming, and did not know whether he'd won Samoa when he filmed H Vs V. So Russell was worse off physically, but they haven't really had a very physically demanding season. Strategy wise he was the same as Rupert, Amanda and James.

Rupert was on the jury for Pearl Islands so he would have known that he didn't win.

That explains a lot for me. I could not understand why people were falling for Russell's s**t when they had seen his first season.

No controversy, Kep - that list is in order of when the last posts were made, and there was a post made in the All Stars folder in 2007 (All Stars was in 2004). ETA: Okay, that isn't consistent with the other folders; I don't know why it's out of order! The number system seems to be wrong. The posts in those folders are mostly in 2004 for All Stars and 2005 for Vanuatu.

Thanks Kep421....On the part where Russell is the only one to complete two seasons without knowing how he did in the first. That was my point before.

Russell is falling apart. I don't mind Parvati and kudos to her and Sandra for playing the game! One of them should win the award for "Best Player" of the Season Russell's wife is really cute! I really thought one of the guys would win that challenge, I had just thought about how heavy it is to carry the water, not have good aim! Good for Jerri for winning. bye bye Rupert!! I wish he was off sooner....
