Micknrc | Tuesday, December 03, 2002 - 01:09 pm     from S-Fever Episode 13 Title: "Survivor Thailand" [untitled] Airdate: Dec 19th During the two-hour finale, a pair of contests whittles the final four players down to two and the jury votes for the winner. According to executive producer Mark Burnett: “Think 'Indiana Jones' in terms of how [the final immunity challenge] is presented. The feel of the whole thing is definitely 'Indiana Jones,' that's what we were trying to create.” The finale is followed by a reunion of all 16 castaways at CBS's Television City in Los Angeles. Jeff Probst hosts the event and provides details about the show's next installment, Survivor: The Amazon. (edited to say I just checked S-sucks, and Fever got this from Scott over at sucks as usual) |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, December 03, 2002 - 01:38 pm     i hope they don't have to eat monkey brain soup...that's about all i remember from 'indiana jones' movies! |
Alaginger | Tuesday, December 03, 2002 - 01:42 pm     I remember the pit of snakes........it was terrible. |
Jeep | Tuesday, December 03, 2002 - 01:55 pm     Yeah, and that BIG BOULDER rolling after them!!!! Tabbyking, it was CHILLED MONKEY BRAINS that they served for dessert! I remember they just popped off the top of the monkey's head and dug in with a spoon. The soup was made of EYE BALLS! And the main course was "Snake suprise". They sure loved snakes in those movies!! I don't think any of the survivors would appreciate this kind of stuff. Can't wait to see what it is! |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, December 03, 2002 - 02:08 pm     waaah, my post disappeared and it might have been a good one. lol anyway, the big boulders left with erin...and i think chilled monkey brains sound as bad as monkey brain soup! shudder. last night they had to drink an entire raw ostrich egg on 'fear factor'. each egg completely filled a huge glass. it was the size of a flower vase--picture the glass container off your waring blender! gross out... maybe they will have to do something with snakes. there are many in thailand. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 04:21 am     Well good. Indiana never stood on a stump and held onto a pole for hours, if my memory serves me. |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 04:31 am     Bat, it is waaaaaaaaaay to early to start the pole discussion. There will be some form of pole. There will be holding on. There is always a pole. <they probably have to stand holding a pole while snakes crawl over their feet or something.> |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 05:16 am     I am jumping the gun on our tradition, Car.  |
Webkitty | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 06:32 am     Ummmm, I can't remember Indiana holding onto a pole either, but that doesn't mean there won't be one. Unless I am wrong, there was some sort of pole holding in every Survivor, it will show up in some way this time too. I'm pretty sure of it  |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 06:47 am     << fingers in ears humming >> .............I do not like that pole, no I do not................. |
Webkitty | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 07:02 am     Bat, I don't like it either, but by that point, these people are so wiped out, menatally and physically, holding onto a pole seems about the fairest way for the very last IC. (they need it to hold them up! lol) I think the traditional challenge right before this one is Fallen Comrades, where they are quizzed about what they have learned about their other Survivors. I would guess that would take the very last brain cell. I still love Survivor after all these seasons. Its unique. They still have to survive the dynamics of inter-personal relationships, but don't have the everyday comforts of the BB house, or the luxuries of The Mole. TAR comes closer in the physically demanding department, but not by a long shot. I don't care if Survivor is heavily edited, its STILL reality tv, these people don't come back with massive weight loss, legs oozing from insect bites and intestinal parasites for nothing. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 07:51 am     Oh I know. They always have that damn pole. Car and I fight about this every season, it is our ritual. She is always right. |
Grooch | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 07:53 am     Who is Indiana? |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:09 am     Groochie! Where the H-E-double hockey sticks have you been? Bat, don't make me start now. The pole has been the F3 challenge in EVERY Survivor. The pole is a big ol honkin Mark Burnett p*nis symbol and it always has been. Indiana Jones is a walking p*nis symbol. See? In the end, it is always about the pole, and some girl always gets into the F2 through her mastery of it. (I like that part) Now no more pole talk for at least a week. I am at work and it is distracting. |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:11 am     Car, if the F2 this year are two men, what does that say about their mastery of it? |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:20 am     Well we already know about Brian, don't we? Do you really need to ask? I bet he handles a pole better than any girl in the history of Survivor. |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:27 am     Oh my heavens, ROFLMAO!! I totally set that one up and didn't see it coming! LOL! Good one! |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:37 am     .....................no pole.................. heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:42 am     Yup, you guys set em up, I bat em out of the park. Bat, we need to help you with the pole thingie. Imagine Laurence as the pole and you are trying to out wait Square. See? |
Grooch | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:45 am     Hi Car! I snuck out and went on vacation last week. I just got back. Thank you for explaining the pole. It all makes sense now. But shouldn't of Richard Hatch won the pole contest instead of being the first on to quit? |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:50 am     I would never do a pole. I don't like the pole. Square and I are going to share. Richard knew he would be the one either Rudy or Kelly would choose to be up against in the final round. No need for him to win it. He just needed to let them battle it out. |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 08:53 am     Exactly. The pole isn't about who wins, it is who goes to F2. Rich was very smart....Neleh (if indeed she tricked Kathy into "checking her bags") was real smart. Tina was real smart. The pole defines who is in F2....from there you are on your own. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 09:51 am     "checking her bags" ?! LOL! Car, you are pesky today. |
Car54 | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 09:55 am     No, I didn't make that up....I think that is really what Neleh said when she told Kathy her boobs were showing....I remember laughing about it at the time...she said it and immediately Kathy looked down and grabbed her shirt. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, December 04, 2002 - 10:01 am     I know you didn't make it up. Just funny to see you say it! |
