Is that the ep that has the fighting Car?

If so maybe they fight like in the way a family does.. or acting like brothers and sisters yelling at each other...

Just a thought on it..

Survive This
by Gary Susman

''Survivor: Thailand'' contestants nearly come to blows. Watch for a fight to break out among the islanders in the third episode

Even on a tropical island, a contest in which scheming Richard Hatch is a winner is no lighthearted day at the beach. Still, the violence on past seasons of ''Survivor'' has been almost entirely verbal and emotional. No more, apparently. Contestants on ''Survivor: Thailand'' got physical and, in the third episode, were filmed nearly coming to blows, host Jeff Probst told the Associated Press on Monday.

Okay, there was that tussle between Alicia and Kimmi in the Australian season over who would have to kill a chicken. But the islanders of the new season, which premieres on Sept. 19, surprised producers with how belligerent they were, Probst said. ''There's a part of you that's excited because it's new,'' he told AP. ''Then there's a part of you that says, 'I hope this is 'Survivor' and not 'American Gladiators.''' During a physical challenge in the third episode, two competitors mixed it up, with Probst caught in the middle. ''I enjoyed that,'' he said, ''because I enjoy people who are playing for real.''

Talking to a group of Entertainment Weekly reporters on Tuesday, Probst described a reward challenge during the Oct. 3 episode in which, for the first time in ''Survivor'' history, opposing contestants were allowed to confront each other physically. Probst said he had to break up an impending fight, telling one contestant, ''Is your name Jeff? Then shut the f--- up.''

Asked to comment on Probst's account, a CBS spokeswoman told EW.com, ''We can't elaborate'' on the contents of yet-to-air episodes. ''Stay tuned,'' she said.

Well the Promo shows the fighters being Robb and Clay... it looks like a challenge that involves conflict...remember Little John/Jane in the Mole...so may not be real fighting.

Also...this is scary...Ghandia accusing Ted of "being sexual". In the promo..Ted shouting "I don't even find you attractive."

Oh My

I hope things get going. So far no plotting and planning. They are gonna have to pick up the pace.

Car that was my response when I saw the promo..I was shocked at it, but hey it might make good tv and ratings.

Granny, yeah, I hope it picks up a bit too. Though, that promo made me sit up on my couch. Wow, the sexual harassment route. That hasn't happened before.

It's probably just to get us to watch. I think the big fight is gonna between Robb and Clay like Car said. And I hope Robb ends up leaving.

The fight happens during a challenge where 2 players are pitted against each other. Jeff said he had to yell to get them to stop.

I suspect one of them thought the other was breaking the rules. It is probably over very quickly.

Ghandia and Ted can't risk strife on their tiny little dwindling team. Should be a good show.

In a scene from tonight's show, did you notice Ghandia had her hand resting on the inside of Ted's bare thigh? Made me go Whoa! If there is a problem, I think it's from her coming on to him.

Right, sexual harassment...

Excuse me, I don't want to be seen as going off on another African-American woman. I'll wait until I actually see the episode.

Did you notice, however, in the discussions as to who would be exiled this week, Ted and Ghandia were lying close together and Ghandia had her hand splayed across Ted's leg(inner thigh was included). Whussup wit that?

Did Ghandia study the rule book to see if a sexual harassment accusation could be used as a gambit to get someone thrown off? She is a legal secretary.

Was there a brief sexual contact after last episodes immunity challenge and before the tribal council?

Thursday, on the couch, watching Survivor. That would be me.

The challenge looked to me like 2 players on a narrow raft...you have to get past your opponent... knock him into the water. Clay is awful little to go up against Robb..Robb has got to be like 6'4 and Clay is like 5'5.

The rumor is that Ghandia left the tribe and is still angry at Clay and I think Ted. Might be her week.

I would bet if they keep losing, the 3 guys pick the most problematic woman every week. Dumb of Ghandia to say...Love you Tanya... and who voted for Helen? So she would have Helen's vote too.

I see that too Car. I also see Ghandia, Stephanie and Jed on the to go menu.

hmmmmm so Ghandia may walk. Maybe we are being fed false spoilers this time around. It would be smart of them to set that up. I hope they have.

I was just over at the CBS site and they have changed where the video footage is located. Instead of being distributed through the show summary, there is now a link called 'video archives' where they are all located together. There is the usual challenge and final words footage, but there is also a lot of untelevised stuff.

Of particular interest to this conversation is "Ghandia's Dream" in which she explains to the Chewies that she had a dream in which the 'dental student' (Jed?!?) and she were at a nightclub and he was coming on to her b/c he thought she was fine (of course-she adds) and she had to drive him home b/c he got sloppy drunk (!)

Things that make you go hmmmm.........

Woo, Ghandi "needs" to go. Yep, her hand on Ted was an eyebrow raiser. And then she goes off on him, and has eye rolls and more comments about Helen.

We need a q & a thread for Survivor, lol.

I asked this question in chat, and no one really knew an answer..so maybe someone else will.

BB has a rule against violence....doesn't Survivor? I know MB liks to fool us, but that pic there with Robb and Clay, and the clip from the show..wasn't really much mistaking what was going on there!

car i don't blame her, on a tropical island, big strong football player. wooh, sorry yall i had a moment.

didn't ghan also say last nite before one of the challenges that she would flash the other team??

Friday, September 27, 2002 - 01:02 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Squaredsc... she did say that! She said she would flash her boobies to distract the guys or something like that. It made me laugh. It occurred to me later than it was doubly funny because it ended up being a blindfolded challenge so the tactic wouldn't have worked anyway!

Family values, could mean Chewy team. They've made reference to being a family. The Sooky's don't seem to be as cohesive. So, something might happen within the Chewy team?

In that picture, Robb is clearly choking Clay. Robb's bigger and younger. grrrrrrrrrr!!!
