Seamonkey | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 09:37 pm     I kinda like Helen.. was cute to see her daughter, who looks JUST like her. |
Tabbyking | Sunday, November 17, 2002 - 10:50 pm     helen is definitely growing on me! and i for one hope we get to see jan do another goofy funeral or yell something silly just to see the look on clay's face. here's hoping that clay doesn't play poker! he can't hide a thing ;>) some of his expressions remind me of a baby eating spinach for the first (and only) time. the twisted, horrified face with the squinched up eyes... all he's missing is the 'shudder'! you moms know what i mean!! lol |
Squaredsc | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 06:48 am     yep sea, helen just spit her out. lol. and i agree tabby. |
Fruitbat | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 09:22 am     I am definately liking Helen now. Ghandiagate is in the past, time to pick someone to cheer. Go Helen! |
Pottedplant | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 10:18 am     I just cannot bring myself to root for Helen. I can't warm up to her at all. I am unable to figure out why ???? |
Djgirl5235 | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 10:32 am     Fruit - you go Mom! |
Essence | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 10:32 am     I can't either pottedplant. I admit, it started with Ghandiagate, but it seems like each episode I just have more and more dislike for her. I can accept any of the remaining as sole survivor with the exception of Helen. |
Ariasmum | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 12:52 pm     Did anyone (other than me) notice that Helen didn't break down until they showed her cat? In her video from home she seemed pleased to see her husband and daughter but then just freaked when they showed her cat! I don't mind Helen. I just find it hard to believe that some people are into their pets more than their family. |
Tabbyking | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 12:57 pm     i thought it was kind of strange myself, but maybe the daughter lives outside the home, and the cat is like the kid still living at home?! it's kind of like amy being glad to see her mom, but ecstatic to see her dog! i guess family is what you 'have', and pets are what you 'choose'!? i would have laughed to see my cat because all we would see would be his tail hanging out from his hiding place. he is a big scaredy cat...but always forgets to tuck his tail in :>) it might have made me cry because it would be such a reminder of daily life. |
Tabbyking | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 12:59 pm     either that, or helen was imagining it in some recipe..."first you sprinkle cat paws in the bottom of the pan..." i'm kidding!!! |
Ariasmum | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 01:09 pm     Yes Tabbyking, the Amy and her dog thing. I knew I'd seen this kind of reaction before. (Not to mention Shannon the ice princess in the first Bachelor and her dog!) |
Car54 | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 02:58 pm     Again, like how I feel about Brian, difference between like and respect. I think Helen is playing the best game of all the women..she is a good competitor in both physical and mental challenges, she has been a hard worker at camp, she seems to have decent relationships with her tribe. The "doesn't need the money" thing...she has pulled it TWICE now...really bugs me and the recipe thing would drive me insane if I was in their camp. Because she is the most threatening woman, I would think if she does not have an F2 alliance with a guy, she will go before Jan. |
Hummingbird | Monday, November 18, 2002 - 10:24 pm     That Helen is one odd fish! She breaks into song at the drop of a hat, quotes millions of recipes, and needs the money for cosmetic denistry! Go Navy! |
Hummingbird | Thursday, November 21, 2002 - 09:10 pm     She played a smart immunity game and probably didn't make anyone mad by the way she did it. |
Kaili | Thursday, November 21, 2002 - 09:41 pm     She did good- I think she was playing lighthearted so as to not make it appear like a pecking order. She made it like a fun game (the people who were left were all safe in her mind so why not?). |
Fruitbat | Friday, November 22, 2002 - 06:04 am     Helen is vulnerable now. She is emerging as a threat to win it all. She really must align with Jake, Jan and Ted to get rid of her biggest threats. Will she? dum de dum dum. |
Ladytex | Friday, November 22, 2002 - 07:03 am     I hope she doesn't cuz I want her gone. Toss up for me whether I want her or Clay gone first ... |
Webkitty | Friday, November 22, 2002 - 07:18 am     I don't think she is vulerable now. Jake is the big target, they I would think Clay is next after that. I really think its going to be Helen, Brian, Jan and Ted in the final four. Unless, Jake or Clay wins immunity, always a possiblility. MB has shown Jake hanging on my his fingernails for a few episodes now, either his story arch is winding up or he slips in one of the final four slots due to an immunity win. |
Fruitbat | Friday, November 22, 2002 - 07:36 am     Penny's interview was telling. I see her aligned with Clay and Brian. Ted will go afer Jake. |
Alaginger | Friday, November 22, 2002 - 10:56 am     Copied this from the board that addresses Penny and her CBS Morning Show interview. "... she said that when Helen and Jake went out for water together, and Jake was giving her his pitch, she went right to Brian and Clay the moment they got back from the reward, and spilled the whole conversation to them. Jake and Penny witnessed this and knew it was all over at that point, that one of them was going next. Julie said, that wasn't shown last night, Penny said, right." Speaking in terms of physical and mental combined, sounds like Helen has aligned herself with the two strongest players. Unless Ted, Jake and Jan get together and try to break this up, I think Helen has a good shot at the F2. |
Car54 | Saturday, November 23, 2002 - 01:57 pm     Interesting confessional interview from Helen ... Helen on Brian's decision Transcript posted by "linda104" at the SS board: Brian and I have had a really good friendship, a really cool friendship that doesn't need to be a lot of words in between but an understanding since...almost since the very beginning here. But when I saw how the game was played, it would have TORN ME UP ... but had Jan & I won, or you know come to the finals and I won and Jan was second, I would have had to have taken Jan too. That's the sportmanslike thing to do. Brian is a sportsman...ummm...and he was SO APOLOGETIC afterward. He came over and he goes "Hey H, it would have been you". And I said "That...you don't need to explain it. I saw how it played out." If it...you know, he and Clay were a team and so he chose Clay and I was full in agreement with that. I understand it. Yeah, I would have liked to have gone but it was just nice that he came up and said that afterward. He goes "H, it would have been you but I kind had to take him" plus he said "I'm so sick of listening to Clay complain about food." And we all are. I mean Clay is like the ... next to Penny ... Clay is the tiniest guy out here yet he acts like he needs, you know, 8000 calories a day to survive. Well, you know, we are all hungry. |
Csnog | Saturday, November 23, 2002 - 05:31 pm     Helen is a smart cookie and an excellent player. If she is not out manuvered by Brian she should be in the final 2. |
Kmjm | Saturday, November 23, 2002 - 07:26 pm     I agree that Helen is playing an excellent game. I've thought for a long time that she and Brian have been secretly allied for the final two, and that video clip that you linked to, Car, seems to support that. |
Alaginger | Sunday, November 24, 2002 - 08:53 am     That video said a lot.......didn't it??? |
Seamonkey | Sunday, November 24, 2002 - 02:21 pm     Yes.. that was excellent.. and it did say quite alot. |
