Niceguy | Thursday, March 21, 2002 - 08:47 pm     Actually we needed to see these guys have the blues a little bit. There was just a bit too much lovey-dovey harmony. Sean was a reliable A-hole as usual and Rob still thinks he's some major league mastermind. Tammy let us know that they're so out of here. On a different subject. Can Zoe even talk? They are really keeping her under wraps. I want to see a war of words between her and Vee. Meanwhile over in Mara, Kathy is establishing leadership and Sarah's gotta go. Not a bad episodes just not the major fireworks of last time. |
Yuhuru | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:25 pm     I'm sorry you didn't get many takers on this thread. Everyone seems consumed with Sean/race, and I'm as tired as a slave reading about it.
But anyway, I think even without a switch the Rotu love fest would have ended. I hadn't noticed the Zoe thing until you mentioned it. That is odd isn't it? |
Alaskagal | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:32 pm     What Zoe thing I missed it. |
Alaskagal | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:33 pm     Never mind I just need to learn to read that's all.. |
Llkoolaid | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:43 pm     I will glad to see the love fest over at Rotu. If I wanted that I would watch Brady Bunch reruns. I would like to see Sean and Rob stay for a while to stir things up. |
Hippyt | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:44 pm     I talked a little about this in my super-spoiling of John.The confrontation between Gabe and John in the previews.I don't think it's going to be anything major,just a discussion about throwing the competition. I like the love team,just wait til the merge,we'll see how much these people really love each other!!! |
Alaskagal | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 03:55 pm     I think just losing an Immunity Challenge will stop the love feast. Once they get scared or feel threatened thier true selves will come out and then the love will go out the window. |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 05:42 pm     Therre might be too much positive going on for Rotu, although from the angle of the viewer--not them. They have every reason to get along, work together and be happy. It's called winning challenges and having as decent a place to live as possible. It seems the entertaining ones do it because they are screw-oofs to begin with or because they want time on the TV to further a career once done with the game. It seems folks like Rudy, Ethan, Roger, Kel, Gina, Zoe and probably others are/were there for the game first. Once they merge, I think they will all play to win--although I think the members of Rotu will do so in a respectful manner towards each other. |
Nanya | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 06:50 pm     I am glad that the two idiots moved to rotu. Rotu is going to have to leave the garden of Eden now that the rotten fruit has come. There is bound to be some discussion and /or dissention around how to handle the ugli fruit. Zoe's non existence is really surprising. You would think with her knowledge of the water, that she would be more visible with the search for food, the scuba gear etc. Maybe she's waiting for the perfect moment to save the day...(maybe lose Sean and /or Rob off shore). ps I can't remember the theme to Roots..maybe Sean could hum a few bars.  |
Squaredsc | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 06:54 pm     lance i hope not 'cause that would be very boring. guess the love shack has been dismantled. wonder if they still do the massages in fact i could use one now especially on my feet. i wonder if anyone brought any pedicure tools? sorry i've been so serious on other threads and i needed to exhale.  |
Urgrace | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 07:24 pm     Rotu has had a life in paradise during the first days of this game. They haven't had to get into any real fights because they haven't been threatened by the trip to the tribal council, which tends to make people tighten their alliances. Rob and Sean have already started ruffling feathers, probably because they are feeling very vulnerable in their new circumstances and well should. Tammy won't keep her thoughts to herself about the way she feels. Gabe probably won't tell Sean, even after Sean's tirade, that he needs to get to know the other tribe members [like he did Kathy]. There is no way John and Rob will get along because of Rob's perceived homophobia. And where was Robert? Not much interaction or face time there either, huh. We've actually seen little of any interactions within Rotu, and Zoe has not had any face time. [former Rotuian Paschal hasn't either.] There could be all kinds of activity going on with Zoe, but MB has chosen not to show us - yet. The next couple week's shows should just get better and better. I predict Rotu will not be the love fest any longer! |
Seamonkey | Friday, March 22, 2002 - 07:30 pm     Now that we have the rumor about Sean knowing Gabe thru belly.. if that is true, then it could be that there will be dissention with some wanting to boot Sean first and Gabe disagreeing and wanting it to be Rob. |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 04:55 am     I think Gabe and Sean hooked up after the show. No matter what happens on location *most* survivors seem to connect on the outside. The rumor came from the Star. That gives me pause. I am expecting to see some agitation on Rotu amoung the original team but not a lot. They have Sean and Rob to absorb any tensions. I can see Sean showing his humor and musical mornings. I think he stays awhile only because Mar will continually lose. This is fueled by wishful thinking. |
Car54 | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 06:19 am     Bat, that is true... Brandon plotted and helped get Kelly booted and they are bosom buddies now. And wasn't it the Star that reported that they were romantic? Yeah right. It is funny, last night I heard a program on NPR radio about the Oscars and they played a clip of Will Smith as Ali ranting about racism, and all of a sudden it sounded a lot like Sean. |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 06:39 am     I am enjoying Sean and Rob and hoping the rumor about Sean staying awhile longer is true. (coming home tan and thin) This is good TV. |
Car54 | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 06:53 am     Yep...me too! <but Rob can go next week...fine with me!> |
Seamonkey | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 09:56 am     I agree about the drama.. but if I was one of the other Rotunians I'd be thinking about the JURY and want those two GONE. Another thread shows a picture from the belly website that shows what appears to be Sean and friends posing with <gag> Mike Boogie of BBII infamy.. but.. was it before or after SIV? |
Knightpatti | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 11:35 am     Seamonkey I agree about the Jury. All of them have a better chance with their own tribe. I hope that they are thinking this way. |
Moondance | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 11:36 am     Some one did a caption on that Sea on the SS board... they have a program that can tell when a pix was added... they said it was May 2001 |
Lancecrossfire | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 12:10 pm     I'm probably a minority as far as what I'd like to see. For me, the entertainment value isn't all that important. I am looking for a good game. Sometimes playing a good game isn't all that exciting or entertaining. If I want to see lying, chaeting and backstabbing, I can come to work for that. |
Wink | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 12:16 pm     Well if that pic was in fact taken in May 2001 perhaps all of Sean's posturing during the first 4 episodes is just that, posturing. Maybe Mikey gave him instructions to be as obnoxious as possible just to get people talking about him. If Gabe and Sean are buddies from Belly then Gabe may be more disposed to keeping Sean alive on the island. Interesting development if true. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 12:27 pm     Interesting indeed.. thanks for the date check, Moon Lance, I'm on your team.. I think human interaction is more interesting that fakery, posturing, backstabbing and so on. |
Moondance | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 12:28 pm     Still suspicious to me ... I am still hoping CBS really doesn't do their casting at Belly... brings a new term to casting couch |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 01:56 pm     Actually Moon look at the bright side....go hang out at Belly. |
Grooch | Saturday, March 23, 2002 - 02:03 pm     Seamonkey, that's why I like Combat Missions. But I'm told it's a mens show, so I guess it doesn't count. Moon, I told you to go spy over at Belly's for us. |
