Best episode yet. Lindsey gone. They had me worried for a minute. I was so thrilled when they figured out the "L" hand signal, but then, it looked like they were gonna vote for Brandon. Good for Kim for not helping Lindsey with her evil plan. And her speech at the end... I didn't know there was bull in Africa.

In Lindsey's defense... ( don't hang me here) Her thoughts on changing her vote to Brandon to save herself would have been a completely valid, reasonable thing to do inside the game. They all came there to win 1Million and should do everything in their power to do so. I wouldn't have blamed her a bit. There really are no "friends" on Survivor, only people you can use to get to your goal. I never really did agree with the way Colby played. He shouldn't have sacrificed himself for Tina. I know, I know you will all think I am evil now but that's just the way I feel.

Lindsey may have actually done a very very little bit of growing up here. Not a lot mind you, but just a little bit. This woman is 27 years old. A little bit of growing up at this point is somewhat pointless when there is a lot of growing up needed.

To me Colby was playing for the money. More money after Survivor. If Colby keeps Keith, Colby get 1M. If Colby keeps Tina, there is a higher potential AFTER. Colby saw Richard Hatch get the gigs after S1.

i don't think you're evil, resortgirl. i think they can do whatever they want in this game, but lindsey wanted the moral high ground after starting down the low road. THAT bugs me. oh yeah, and the whining fakiness.

RG, I'll have to agree, she panicked and was desperate. I actually thought she was going to vote for Brandon because she thought that was her only chance. I did not like Lindsey at all (that VOICE...ugh) but if she had done this it wouldn't have been the first time we have seen betrayal on this show. Of course, everyone here would have torched her for it simply because we all dislike her so much. Colby was aligned with Jerri Amber and Mitchell and yet he betrayed them and voted off the giraffe. Nobody was really upset with him because everyone liked Colby and disliked Jerri. Replace Colby with Lindsey, it's interesting how perceptions of the game change based on the personalities.

As far as her Early Show appearance, I didn't catch all of it so I couldn't take notes like I usually do.... I did however hear her say that the producers chose how to portray her and blamed the editing, but a mere two minutes later said she couldn't blame the editing. Seemed to contradict herself. I think she said she couldn't believe some of the things that came out of her mouth.

The editing was interesting. First we saw the discussion about the "L" hand signal. THEN we saw the discussion about voting for Brandi. That way we'd think they were going to oust Brandi. What obviously happened was that the editors reversed the order. They talked about ousting Brandi BEFORE they got the word about Lindsey's votes.

Anyway, she was very much on her best behavior on the Early Show and came across as fairly charming. But she just wouldn't give up on how she hates being "dissed" and talked about--her reaction being interviewed was just as snotty as we saw her in Africa.

I'm glad she's gone. And I suspect we won't have Brandi to kick around much longer, either.

Do you know what made them change their mind just before the Tribal Council?? I mean, it looked like Brandon was targeted and then they decided on Lindsay. What happened...
(Sorry, but I just find it difficult to follow this Survivor...)

Seems to me that Lindsey going to Kim with a plan to betray Brandon and save her own butt wasn't a real good idea. The message she gave was, I will crush whoever's in my way and plus, it seemed rather desperate (as it was). You think they wanted to keep someone who would do that to their so called alliance? I figure she knew they didn't buy it and would vote for her so, why would she then vote for Brandon? She sure knew Kim wasn't gonna do it. After figuring out that she was beat, she gave the "I am such a moral person" speech. Please. I'm hoping she only has 6 minutes of fame. Fifteen is too long.

I don't think it has anything to do with changing their mind... they had figured on Lindsey ... the magic of editing! MB will let us think one way when they otrher will play out:)

She mentioned that you forget the camera is there.
It showed, didn't it?
She also said she had learned from seeing the show. I'm not sure what, but one can hope.
What I really choked on was when she said Frank was probably a nice guy. Through out her whole time there, she totally demonized Frank and believed that every one on both tribes would see him that way. It is clear that they don't. Even Clarence had a good word for Frank, unless that was editing speaking. I'm betting even Big Tom had seen enough of her tight whatever. I'm quoting Tom here. I'm not sure what he said was tight, but it wasn't her thinking.

Spunky, you are right, but at the last minute Kelly overheard Brandon and he gave away Lindsay's votes, so the Boran's changed to her.

Who knows, maybe Brandon talked too loud on purpose!

RG, I tend to agree with you. I am glad Lindsay is gone, but she is a young, obviously immature girl. If you were on the net last night, it was a little unbelievable the things that were said about her.
I think the same thing happened to Jerri, but Jerri had more maturity and after being booted, the humor to get past it and make the most of it.
I suspect Lindsay needs to grow up a lot- that she was totally emotionally unprepared for this experience, and not grown up enough now to really grow from it. Her final words showed how out of touch she was with how she came across.

Actually, they talked about voting Lindsey off last week... then they should Kelly talking about getting a signal from Mamma Kim to vote out Lindsey... she said she possibly signed to vote out Brandon too but wasn't sure... the editing made it look like they were voting Brandon the whole time but if you watch last weeks and this weeks closly, it wasn't a big surprise they went for Lindsey.

She is immature and I didn't care for her at all, I'm just saying that if she had voted out Brandon and broken the alliance that would have been a smart move on her part (if the others hadn't voted for her that is) because the point of the game isn't to make friends or to take the higher moral ground. It's to win. It's a game. If it were real life, yeah, it would be a terrible thing to backstab a friend. I can;t even imaging how she would be demonized here had she stayed on the show by voting out Brandon.

I didn't get her final words at all though. She was the mature one? Huh?

For awhile I thought it was Brandon,
While they plotted and schemed with abandon,
But in the end it was Lindsey,
And her speech it was windy,
She was booted with no leg to stand on.

Lindsay was did a chat at CBS today at 2:30 ET- haven't seen a summary, but did read a post on another site where she was asked who from the cast do you NOT keep in contact with- she named Frank and Lex and was not very forthcoming about why. Final 2?
Reminder- Silas also named Lex- we know he hated Frank.

One more reason to think that Lex won it all! Yippee!!!

I can understand why they don't keep in contact with Frank. They treated him horrible and told their new Sambura members horrible things about him. He probably doesn'twant anything to do with them.

Rudy (another veteran) didn't want to see anyone from "Survivor" again either. Maybe it's the mentality they have to have... not get too close to people you are at (in) war with. I dunno?

I just saw Lindsey on David Letterman (Monday night) and they showed her application video.

She was topless with a bikini bottom (but as she empthatically stated, they were "painted", riding a bicycle down a road.

Now I don't know what she said or did but I think I know why they picked her. I think the production staff tape review session went something like this

Prodcution guy #1: Okay let's see video #132

PG#2: What godawful unfunny mess are we going to see now.

PG #1: I don't know but if I havta look at another guy in a zebra skin......WHOA! Look at those things.

PG #2 (sputtering and spitting cheetos dust all over the place: DAMN! Hey she's talking, turn down the sound and rewind.

Tape #132 is renamed: Bouncing Boobies Chick on a Bike and added to the top of the consideration pile.

Funny stuff Mss. Did she really do that? I usually tune in to David Letterman, but missed it Mon. night. Shouldn't surprise me. It does explain how she got on the show. Now, how about Brandon. I need an explanation for that pick. No visuals, please. My heart can't take that.

Yep she really did that on her tape. Painted breast and a bikini bottom riding a bike down the road.

I'm sure she was talking about something but Letterman didn't have the sound up. He did say that having the video clips doesn't make them (the survivors) as boring.
