Well, at least Deena is playing the game with some smarts and cunning. I admire her for that. She is not relying on "good looks and sex appeal". I am afraid that she will end up off because she is a strong player....needs to be careful. Oh well. I'm enjoying her strategy and alliances. Interesting picks.

it wasn't danielle's smirky bragging that turned me off to her, it was her 'debil' comments all the time! lol oh yeah, and that 'eye-rolling'-- scary stuff!!
i am enjoying deena, too. other than the comment to christy way back when over building shelter, she has been okay in my book. heidi and jenna are just getting worse, although i expect it of heidi and wish jenna would just stop. she needs to get away from heidi and the young chick mentality. i still don't think i would be happy with jenna as the winner, so i hope she doesn't make it to the end.

Just saw Deena on the Early Show.

Julie asked her what happened?

Deena said: Pride commeth before a fall, you try to anticipate things, but my house of cards just fell to pieces, but its the nature of the game.

There was a boot plan when we merged but I saw a threat in Alex but I underestimated the power Alex had over the girls. (then later) they weren't ready to give up their snuggle bunny yet. I lost because of warmth and comfort in the Amazon.

She had no animosity toward Rob! She said they had a pact to go to F2 together, but Rob made it clear when they made it, that if it became a problem for him, he would have to rethink it and she understood that and might have done the same.
Julie said, so the deal went both ways? and Deena said, absolutely. But, at the time she got booted was on board with the plan.

Deena said it appeard watching the show that Heidi was saying some things she didn't know about (so it seemed Deena tended to think Heidi was the mastermind behind her boot)

Deena said she alligned with the pretty young girls because she was trying to vote off some of the others. (Joanna, Jeanne? I assumed she thought they were threats)
But then the men came into the picture and it lifted the girls spirits, and she realizes she was trying to stay in a clique she didn't belong in.

She said regarding the IC, Matt ate the bug in a split second and she couldn't have won, but wish she had at least tried.

That's all I can remember right now.

I'll add that the spoiler that was out there about her was all wrong except for the part that she didn't make it far beyond the merge.
I wonder if she gave mis-information to her friend on purpose to see if it would leak. Now she knows that "friend" she told has loose lips, smart move.

The "painful bug bite" she was supposed to get the episode she got voted off was actually Heidi.
And from her Early Show interview, it didn't sound like she "hated" Rob at all, but understood why he felt he had to vote with the rest. She *seemed* to blame Heidi, if anyone. I don't think she mentioned Jenna by name at all (but I could have missed that) Maybe she will loosen up in her chat interviews and we will hear more about this.

thanks for posting that- she really is a pretty confidant person eh? The talk about her pursuit of justice and Alex wouldn't even be let in to "play with" her. Sheesh.

WOW I got the opposite... she came across so nice and together... even apologized if Jeanna took things the wrong way and being too hard on Roger... I really like her!

Aside from the parts about her attorney skills, I totally agree that she seemed nice. I think I was looking for the negative because she really always kind of irritated me because of that confidence. Too cocky for me I guess (although she did have some pretty entertaining moments on the show).

Moondance

Friday, April 11, 2003 - 02:20 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
BTW she did say that Alex could not compete or play on her level in court(she is the lawyer) but she also said she could not compete with him on a triathlon and called him a machine.

I have always liked her so I guess that is where I am coming from... I like confidence:) Something I wish I had more of!

Thanks Car for posting the chat! I really like Deena. She is being so cool about the game and just has a great attitude about the way people are playing the game.

I'm there with Square.. what did they think Matt was going to do? Hack them apart in front of a bunch of cameras? Not everyone is an extrovert.

Good chat!

Crickey! The print on those chat transcripts is so small! My eyes! lol

Thanks for posting that link Moon.

All those spoilers that were out there for her were wrong, except that she just made the jury.
She doesn't "hate" Rob at all! She seems very fond of him as a matter of fact and thinks he is playing the best game.

And, I was surprised to see her say those things about Matt. I mean, usually after they get off they all say, oh, he/she wasn't that bad.....
I guess its safe to assume that IF Matt makes F2, she won't be voting for him!

I was also interested in her take on Jenna. Deena hopes Jenna isn't mad at her and hopes to clear things up after the show. Ummmmmmm, didn't she get to do that on the yacht?

She also hinted that Christy might win an immunity. Also ummmmmm.

She doesn't seem that fond of Alex, though. Another ummmmm. Now I'm going to have to rethink my scenario on how the rest of the game goes down.

Sea and Square... I took it as her humor about Matt not that she was that serious. JMO

I agree with Moondance about the Matt thing. Also, don't forget that Christy(who we all love) is very creeped out about Matt. He is not a big talker so it's not like she(Christy) has much to go on except him sharpening his big knife thing.

I LOVE ROB!!
:)

He is slightly awkward, a tad dorky, childish as hell and a big nerd........and I ADORE that about him!!

'Nuff said. I am a sucker for Casey Kasem!!:)

That was the best chat I have read from any Survivor. I like her immensely, always have. Very grounded woman and it was refreshing to hear someone admit they could have done things differently. I am very impressed. Loved her reaction to Jenna's fat pig comment. Deena is also very witty.

Looks like she would vote for Jenna if up against Matt. Certainly Rob is her favorite and would get her support. Christy too.

Gosh, I hated to see Deena voted out! Now who will I root for? Loved the chat ... I saw someone post somewhere that Deena was the most likely to make a mean speech like (oh sheesh what WAS her name?) the truckdriver girl on the first Survivor show, but I think Deena's chat makes it obvious that while she played hard, she understands that it is only a game and has no hard feelings.

Yes, I realize that Deena was probably just joking about Matt, but as an attorney she should know better, IMO. Kind of irresponsible and tabloid-like to describe him as they are.

I like Deena. I think she'd be one of the survivors I'd actually want to know in real life.

This will show you a transcript of the Yahoo Platinum Survivor Insider for Episode 9. It clears up the confusion some have.

Thanks Bat! I was just complaining to myself that I can't post links over in the Jenna thread and here you have it! lol.

The ~behind the scenes~ stuff is great. I will most defenately pay the 10 bucks for it next season. (going on the presumption that I have a real puter by then)
