SPOILER 11-20-03
Cruzlvr | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 06:21 pm     Agree CSNOG - there is no one here this year I really dislike ... Just don't want Burton and Lil to win because I think the twist unfair. and don't want Jon to win, well.... because Jon is Jon |
Gina8642 | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 06:36 pm     Comments on tonight's show: Ok, I feel guilty even thinking this - but I'm glad to see Rupert go. I knew the spoilers all said he was outta here tonight and I was sad. Until tonight he was my favorite. I stayed away from all the Rupert opinion threads because I just liked liking him and I didn't want to hear folks whining. Then tonight - hello? Rupert was annoying. -First we get the shot of - Let's talk to my wife at night with the camera three feet away from my face. Can you say media %$#%#@? That was obnoxious screen grabbing. -Then saying he wanted to pump everyone up so they would be happy losing to him. Cult of Rupert anyone? Sorry Rupert, each player is playig for themselves - not YOU. You should get that. -Rupert tells Lil they could be final two, yet reiterates during the vote that Morgans go first. -Then to top off the ego trip - he final words - 'they booted me off because they don't like me and I don't fit in'. Baloney Rupert - they booted you because you made yourself too likable and too indispensible. He was fun. He was charismatic. But I don't think he was playing survivor. I think he was playing the game of trying to be the most popular kid on the playground. Funny thing is, IMO he suceeded at that and that is why he lost the game of Survivor. End Rant. Other comments. MB's promo editors and final cut editors need to start speaking to one another. Promo's that never happened: Promo - Women of one camp get mad when the shower is placed in the open Show - Darrah showering in the open saying everyone respected her privacy. Promo - One tribe hosts a wedding Show - zip (yet those who PAY for yahoo insiders learn that Drake hosted a funny mock wedding for Christa - yet this isn't seen by the 20 million viewers who saw it teased in the previous week's promo) Promo - Lil suffers an anxiety attack Show - Lil isn't happy with herself, but doesn't have any sort of anything approximating an 'attack'. Despite my ranting - I actually really enjoyed the show tonight. Another fun night of Suvivor! |
Bastable | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 06:58 pm     Kizz, Newsman--great posts! I would love to see you guys post more often! |
Seamonkey | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 07:09 pm     I haven't seen the show yet, but did they ever show what they teased where Ti was saying "maybe one of the guys could "hurt" himself..?? Just wondered if that was another one of those red herrings.. |
Chy | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 07:30 pm     Sea, I think it was last week's show when that happened. Ti was talking about how the Drakes are not as tight as she thought they were. She saw through the girls' game of trying to get rid of Rup soon. She was shown during the show recalling Sandra & Christa's words about how they ought to try to find other sources of foods in case the guys get "hurt" ..... as she said this she did the quatation marks with her fingers. Do you remember the girls walking in to the woods asking Ti & Dah if they'd want to go along? I thought they were going to plot on girl power. But that's when MB's people cut it to a Ti confession completed with the finges. |
Surfgirl | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 07:44 pm     Seamonkey: I think they meant where last week girls plotting together and saying what if one of the guys, Rupert or Burton, who provide food got "hurt" meaning voted off one would still be around to fish..example.. Burton at trible counsil tonite.. If one of us got.. ohh.. say struck by lightning.. OK I am so pisse..oops I mean mad at Sandra right now. She turned on Rupert. I really think her vote for Jon was planned she knew if Lil backed out would be a tie, so she voted Jon to make sure that didnt happen. Think that is why she made such a point to pick on Jon when Jeff asked about who was getting a free ride. To hide her true actions. If you recall she started last week trying to rally the women together. See it as s a good move on her part I guess, but still mad she turned on Rupert. Did any one else catch at the reward challenge when Lil and Burton won.. Lil jumped on Burton kissed him fully on mouth and Burton said.. "QUIT doing that Lil!!. Come on man LOL.." Maybe thats how Burton and Jon are keeping her on there team.. a little action on the side??LOL |
Twiggyish | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:05 pm     Kizz, I also love picking out the allegories and symbolism, too. This show was great as usual this year..but I am going to miss Rupert. |
Luvtrash | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:05 pm     NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT RUPERT! Now I have to go watch it. I am bummed out big time. |
Cinder | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:16 pm     Surfgirl- I thought that is what Burton said after the "kiss" but I could not clearly make it out. |
Kappy | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:21 pm     Lol, Surfgirl ~ the first thing I noticed about Lil tonight was that the front of her shirt was actually unbuttoned and then when she had a small top on . . well, I could only wonder 'when did this change happen'? |
Suitsmefine | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:33 pm     I hope all the remaining starve to death and Rupert is declared the WINNER!!!! ( A girl can dream, can't she?) |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:34 pm     Jon was right about one thing--you have to check guilt at the door or quit the game. |
Dee | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:45 pm     "A promise to me is meant to be broken like a fat woman on wicker furniture". - Jon That statement right there says he's just despicable. |
Dee | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:47 pm     I know it's mean but I wish Rupert had taken the fishing equipment with him when he left. As it is, I hope none of them catches a fish. LOL |
Chieko | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 08:51 pm     Surfgirl, I think you are totally right about Sandra turning on Rupert. She absolutely knew what she was doing with her vote and now I'm not so sure she wasn't aiming for Ruperts spot on the target. Burton is used to being on a tribe where everyone helped with the work, I think now a lot of it is going to fall to him with only Lil to help. Sandra may win but to me it doesn't look like what she did was a really strategic move, and I'm curious to see what Christa has to say to her about tonight's vote. |
Surfgirl | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 09:16 pm     I think the pre-view for next weeks show has a lot to say.. Like the "Sabotage" thats supposed to be a big deal.. Makes it look like Christa did something bad .. In my own opinion.. I think maybe someone Sabotaged either the spear (broke it) or the rice and beans.. and blamed Christa.. My guess before tonite would be Jon or Burton.. but now I would put Sandra at top of list.. surely if Christa figured out Sandras betrayel would be heck to pay!! |
Pamy | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 09:22 pm     I reallly can not stand Lil after tonite. It just pisses me off Burton and Lil are there, they don't deserve to be. I loved the snake eating lizard thing...very appropriate |
Surfgirl | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 09:32 pm     Ohh yeah.. sorry.. lol.. I forgot to add .. if did break spear or ruin rice and beans.. maybe Suitsmefine and Dee's (and my) wish would come true by default.. Rupert wins, all others dead..except Christa.. who would be on the brink of death but.. Rupert saves her at last second with C.P.R. and she comes in second...LOL Hey a girl can dream?? Also The Jon statement..Fat girls on wicker furniture.. well I hope Christa crushes your a@@ Jon and she is far from fat but next to you bud.. Calista Flockheart looks chunky |
Luvtrash | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 09:41 pm     Suitsme, that sounds like a fine idea! Can we start some sort of voodoo pray chain? Light some candles, burn some incense, chat "run, fishies, run, run away!" Poor Rupert didn't understand that the game is not about being strong, but about being sly. It will be interesting to see what happens in the ASS. Wonder if any of them have done some research on how better to survive and how to keep the insects at bay. I am sad to see Rupert go, but it helps to know we will see him again. |
Watching2 | Thursday, November 20, 2003 - 11:10 pm     I'm surprised Rupert was actually voted out tonight because of the editing. They usually try to fool you into thinking someone is going and then it ends up being someone else. Sort of like last week when they GAVE Rupert immunity after they had been talking about voting him off. That being said, I saw the writing on the wall last week when Rupert was winning everything. It didn't matter that he gave it away, the point is, he was GOOD and won many competitions. He didn't get voted out because he wasn't liked, he got voted out because he was too much of a threat. He didn't play a good game in that respect. After some of his actions tonight, he turned me off since he was acting as if he was entitled to win. Umm...it's a game. Everyone wants to win! I almost made it through an episode not totally turned off by Jonny boy. ALMOST. I wanted slap the smirk off of his face at TC and the comment about the "fat lady & wicker," reminded me just how annoying and tactless he is. I did enjoy the snake & the lizard, although I was sort of grossed out at first. Good editing there and I'm looking forward to see what's afoot next week! |
Starfire | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 12:30 am     I'm more than willing to take a weeks vacation just so I could find Jon and smack him down. And while I'm at it I would mess his fingers up cause I can't stand how he sits at tc. |
Watching2 | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 01:17 am     ROFL Starfire - Go for it!  |
Whoami | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 01:37 am     The ONLY good thing about Rupie getting voted off is, he is going to give the best withering glares at TC in the next few weeks. I wonder what his questions to the F2 will be? Jon....."like a fat lady on wicker.." What a <self mod> And that smirk, and his swagger up to the voting table. If he wins, or gets F2....ugh! I wish I could say I'd be done with Survivor forever. But I can't since I am looking forward to The Rupert Show Part II in February! |
Realfan | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 10:06 am     Great post, Gina. Good outlining of why Rupert bugs with his sense of entitlement. Hubris often precedes a big fall! I fell off the Rupert love train when he screamed at Jon and tried to intimidate him into loyalty. I don't care for Jon, but I'm glad he was strong enough not to be intimidated by the bully. I'm really digging on Burton. I don't care if they starve. The game is only 10 days more, and it's not REALLY about food. |
