Jed Disappointment Thread
TV ClubHouse: Archives: Jed Disappointment Thread
Twiggyish | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 12:34 pm     I am disappointed in this guy. Instead of trying to pitch in and help, he sits around and complains. Then, when food is being gathered, he refuses to particpate, and then doesn't eat. He thinks 5 people are too many to hunt for food. Well, there are more than 5 eating. From his attitude, I don't see him staying long. Here's hoping he sees the light soon and particpates. |
Squaredsc | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 12:42 pm     maybe its his strategy? running out before i get smacked. |
Twiggyish | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 12:46 pm     Square, yeah that's the ticket..LOL It's not a good way to win friends. In the beginning the strategy should be to pitch in and make himself useful. As it stands, they are resenting his lack of participation. |
Lycanthrope | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 06:05 pm     I was set to like this guy at the beginning since he's from Dallas, and well, I'm in Ft. Worth. Colby represented Texas well, but this guy just seems lazy. They'll probably keep him around for the challenges, though. At least for a while. |
Azriel | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 06:33 pm     Now, Twiggyish, give the man a break, it was hard work boiling that water and so tedious...you know how long it takes a watched pot to boil. He looked to be very vigilant sitting there and watching that pot. I'm sure he didn't want it to boil over and waste precious water. Those people were so ungrateful. He even got up and passed the boiled water around! I saw him dicing up a coconut, too, so I'm going to assume that he at least chopped it open. My goodness, that has to be a full day of work right there.

Neko | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 10:13 am     I'm a bit dissapointed too. But you have to remember, there's always a story left on the editting room floor. Jed could have done a ton of work with the water and stuff like that.. And getting food before everyone else realized they needed it. They just didn't show it. |
Battlestar | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 01:16 pm     He also has the most nasty nasal voice ever----it does not match his looks at all. I hope he doesn't have acting aspirations- If I close my eyes, I see a very short skinny mousey guy--or a dentist |
Suitsmefine | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 08:24 pm     Exactly.....Battlestar hit the nail on the head, this guy just plainly grates on my nerves,alot like my dentist,LOL!!!!! |
Chiparock | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 08:53 pm     Jed is beginning to appear to be a mass of contradictions. I found a Smoking Gun article which reports Jed's DUI conviction in 1999, complete with his taped sobriety test. The same article mentioned that he was a Christian missionary in India. The link to the article is: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/jhildebrand1.html |
Bandmom | Sunday, September 29, 2002 - 05:51 am     I was also set to like Jed. He is from my home state and his bio made him seem like a nice guy. I agree with everyone that he appears to be lazy and a loner. Not a good strategy in this game. |
Jagger | Sunday, September 29, 2002 - 06:01 am     I'm leaving my opinion open at this time, there is too much of an editing issue here. I haven't really gotten to like or dislike any of them yet, but time will tell. |
Sisalou | Monday, September 30, 2002 - 12:56 am     Twiggy, me too! He has been negative presence on my t.v. screen. I was all set to like him too, since I am from Texas but yuk! Suitsmefine and Battlestar this is for ya'll. \image(ouch2} |
Sisalou | Monday, September 30, 2002 - 12:57 am     Let me try that again:

Chiparock | Monday, September 30, 2002 - 07:10 am     Sisalou, that is TOO funny! I love it! |
Sisalou | Monday, September 30, 2002 - 10:24 am     Hi Chiparock, I thought it was hilarious when I came across it. I knew I would be able to find a place for it on TVCH. |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, October 01, 2002 - 07:38 am     I agree with Jagger, I am leaving my opinion open. Editing as we know plays a big part in our perception of these people. I have to give him top marks for competitions, he is the one who caught up and passed Ghandia, and last week he did the 2 legs of the race when Penny gave up, so his strength in competitions may keep him around until the merge. |
Laura11103 | Tuesday, October 01, 2002 - 09:02 am     Yeah he came off like a real schmuck. I was laughing my a$$ off when it started pouring and then he goes under their shelter.... hahahahahahahaha, never try to be better than everyone else or you'll end up drenched! |
Allietex | Tuesday, October 01, 2002 - 08:06 pm     I don't remember which one is was, but one of the other members of the tribe was talking about him and said he did not like his attitude but then mentioned that he had done a lot of work. It sure wasn't shown, so I am waiting to see if this is one of those times that editing makes someone look worse than they really are. I too really liked him on paper and I am hoping he shapes up. |
Neko | Wednesday, October 02, 2002 - 02:40 pm     Wasn't that Robb Allietex?? |
Knightpatti | Wednesday, October 02, 2002 - 09:02 pm     I thought he would be a favorite of mine, but he so far is a big disappointment. Remember, though, he solved the knife puzzle very fast. It is hard sometimes in this show with the editing and it is still early in the game. Things do change with some of the players. |
Discoinferno | Thursday, October 03, 2002 - 07:14 pm     Jed, you let me down! You got voted out before Robb?????????????? |
Hippyt | Thursday, October 03, 2002 - 08:10 pm     This poor guy,what was he thinking? There's no protein shakes,no tooth brightner,no pull-up bar on Survivor. |
Lombadier | Thursday, October 03, 2002 - 08:53 pm     I thought Jed was the best looking guy of this season, but I do not care for laziness. What was his problem with helping out around camp???? |
