I am liking Julie, Alana, Melissa, Maria and John. I cant believe that i am admitting to liking Melissa, Alana and Julie!

Neutral on Bruce and cris.

Dislike Nikki.

Absolutley DISLIKE Tyson. He needs to go next based on tonight and yesterdays episode, what a diva!!!!! (or Divo? LOL.)

I didnt like Robin, I know I am in a minority, but i cant stand people who mostly sit on their a$$ and boss people around. I wasnt sad that he left tonight, lets leave it at that. plus he used to creep me out when i would watch Lifestyles of the RIch and Famous when i was little, LOL.

I think you would all agree with me that Tyson needs to go soon...and the sooner the better!

Here's the order in which i want the celebrities to go...
1.Tyson
2.Nikki
3.Bruce
4.Chris
5.Melissa
6.John
7.Julie/Alana/Maria

The only reason I would vote for Tyson (besides his charity)is to make him stay out there longer and suffer.

He is not a happy camper. <evil grin>

I guess I am not thinking about their charities :) I vote based on who i like.

I kind of liked having them all there - depending on who ends up being last, it could get pretty quiet. Imagine if Cris and Maria are the last two, there will be an entire hour of no one talking!

I'm thinking the quiet ones won't get many votes. I think an Alana-Julie final two may be likely.

Great point, Alisons.

Monkeyboy, Robin was doing all the cooking there. And I don't think that is an easy job to do with what they have and who they have there.

I think Nikki is very sweet and she is really trying. I give her an A+ for trying.

Good point Grooch,I just dont like him, so there! :)

But we could watch Chris and Maria dance.I agree with Grooch about Nikki. When she's on Howard Stern's show, she is sweet even though they put her through heck. Thanks again Grooch.

Monkeyboy, as long as you listening and recognizing, I respect your opinions. :)

Robin is an aquired taste.

Why are you guys against Bruce? I think he has a good attitude here. Tyson is the one I don't care for. What a baby! What a jerk! I also don't care for Julie.

I like Buce alright. I even threw in a vote for him tonight. I think my vote was nulled and void tho. Long story. :)

My list:
1. Tyson
2. Julie
3. John/Bruce

After that I'm not sure cause the camp dynamics will change after more evictions.

Too bad Papa Smurf got the boot. Wasn't he the camp cook for the most part? And who wanted to keep Bruce? He's such a nag! They ought to lock him up with Tyson somewhere as a bushtucker. Tyson can have a tantrum and Bruce can tell him he's doing it wrong and how to do it his way.:)

I was very happy to see his negative bootie go! This man was a lump of complaints. Did you notice how he actually cooked? He told them what they were eating and then set it all up and stood their while the others tended it. Maybe with him gone they will stop crying to the producers so much. He seemed to spear head that campaign almost daily. Glad, glad, glad, glad he is gone! He really thinks very little of a womans capability when trying to survive. I guess he forgot that his mother raised him. Now lets give Tyson those walking papers next.

OH and if not Tyson next I'd be happy to see Bruce go as well. He's too condescending for my taste. Pluse I think his face is falling off LOL

The thing about Robin - he seemed to be one of those people who get very controlling of little things when the major things in their life are out of control, i.e., being in the jungle. Not a "go with the flow" person at all. It was probably very stressful for him. I have worked with people who become absolutely convinced that no one can do their job but them, but in the end everyone seems to get by when they are gone. I think that is what will happen here.

C1mag, I agree. I am glad to see Robin go. The reason Melissa got along with him so well and did not react to his trip is that he and her mother are close friends and she has probably known him all of her life growning up.

I don't like Alana either and cannot figure out why so many do.

Melissa and Maria and my picks to stay.

I liked Robin. I think a lot of us changed our opinions of Alana when she did that trial and did great. I feel the same way about Julie...annoying as heck but tough.

I was so sad to see Robin go!! I think he made an interesting point when he was saying goodbye to the celebrities..something to the effect of "America has an interesting plan for all of you..they want you to suffer" I think he is sort of right, I think people want to see it get down to no food, and lots of fighting! LOL
I agree with whoever said that these celebrities seem more real to me than the "non actors" on the reality shows! I am finding I am enjoying these celebrity shows way more than I expected.

I personally thought the group needed someone like Robin to help organize these personalities but I can't believe folks think Robin was the complainer - if Alana opens her mouth it's complaining, wining or dishing crap. I wanted her to go home first, I can't stand her. I don't believe it has been fair that Julie has had to do all the things she has done. Let the guys do 'something' other than pat themselves on the back.

It really, really, really, really, really, irritated me that Robin kept calling the women, "girls" during his lecture and the way he, Chris and Tyson talked about Nikki while she was trying to learn how to tend the fire disgusted me. Actually he and Tyson did the talking Chris just sat beside Tyson and giggled at everything they said.

I think Robin leaving will be a good thing, and next I would like to see Tyson, then Bruce. They don't give the women credit for having any brians!

And I hope Robin and Tyson watch the tapes of the trials to see what the women and John went through to get them meals.

But the announcer refers to them as the boys and girls..is boys ok but not girls?

Grooch, I agree, Nikki is very sweet. Honestly can't think of a reason anyone could dislike her except that she's vain, but who cares! She's gorgeous and nice, I haven't seen her be nasty to anyone.

I was sorry to see Robin go, they all looked upset, especially Melissa... it will be interesting if the guys get voted off and the women are left with no firebuilding skills.

Tyson has shown his jerky true colors, lol. How funny was that when Melissa and Nikki were dozing during Robin's speech...

Fluffybbw

The announcer wasn't talking to them, Robin, was, what do you think would have happened if Alana had spoken up and said during the lecture; "Well Robin if you boys would stop yelling at us when we offer to help, and if you boys would stop sitting around complaining and actually doing something we might feel a bit more like helping out."

Yeah, Tyson really pi$$ed me off tonight! He's fine to look at but he needs to keep his mouth shut. Alana lost points with me too, allowing Tyson to talk to her like he did. I've seen men behave the way Tyson & Bruce were last night, it's like they were showing off to the other men. No way would I have started crying like Alana did, I would have told Tyson to quit being a pig and talk with respect.

Fluffy - I could have sworn Alana said basically exactly that, except to Tyson. She started getting teary, but she said it. The editing didn't show what happened of course, just that she said it.

Fluffybbw

Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 12:50 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
She called them boys?

You know Gina, you reminded me of something when you mentioned editing, I keep forgetting that this isn't like BB where they have live feeds so we can always get the real story on what's happening.

I was so angry after watching the show last night, but then today I started thinking about it and really Robin was shown in scenes that made him look pretty bad, but because of editing we don't know the whole story.

Now that someone will be leaving every night I wonder if each show will have the same kind of editing where the person leaving is put into a very bad light. I sure wish we had live feeds for this show.

My choice for the next three bootees

1) Tyson (gets on my nerves)
2) Julie
3) Bruce (only his way is the right way/full of himself)

I agree that live feeds are the only way to know what's really been going on there. However, I'm not sure what purpose it would serve to intentionally put together scenes showing someone in a bad light the same day their eviction is announced. The votes have already been cast at that point.

The question I wonder about is if they are editing certain people to look worse than others, isn't that like fixing the votes, and what are the losers going to think when they view the tapes of the show?

I liked Robin in the beginning, but I think it's for the best he was let go. He was the one who constantly tried to blackmail the producers with the threat of a walkout (with Melissa as his backup). The viewers probably didn't want him to get another chance to talk the group into walking off the show, since that would mean the end of the series.
