That’s an interesting lineup. I can actually visualize it happening that way too. Use Dawn and Whitney to whittle down the riff raff, giving them hope of lasting at least 3 more days and the “temporary” player goes on to win the million.

Please don’t let Coach win or even get to the final four. He hasn’t been so annoying this season but went back into his old blather-blather dragon wizard mode last night.
Brandon needs to keep his mouth shut at TC. Too much raising his hand to speak to teacher, uh, Jeff will get him into trouble. Cochran is now the one everyone is wanting to go to the finals when it could have been Brandon or Edna. Cochran needs to go in two weeks after Dawn next week. I like Dawn and if she can worm her way in then more power to her but in the game play, she’s out. Then Whitney three weeks from now.
After Ozzy’s big talk, here’s to Keith stomping him at Redemption. Then Dawn stomping Keith, Jim and Whitney. What I’d give for Dawn to come back and take it all but that’s not happening.
Shouldn’t there have been a clue to an idol at the merge feast last week?
Coach still holds an Idol. No new Idol until it’s played.
The idol that Ozzy gave to Whitney was played. That should count, shouldn’t it?
I do believe it’s one Idol per team.
Since neither were played before the merge - both were available.
Now there is only one team - and a limited time to play it.

Well, now they are down to the Upolu six and Cochran.
Disregard the preview about Brandon.
Coach set the stage (even with editing) to get rid of Al and Sophie.
Al - Coach is the leader and who he says goes - and goes next week.
People on the outs were presented ways to get rid of Coach’s stranglehold on the game - but failed to act.
Oh, well.
Are you not watching this season? No comments on the show?

Blah, Ozzy still alive. Here’s to Dawn in the next challenge.
Other than the idol episode, this is the first we’ve really heard Whitney speak. Obviously, she was a gonner.
Sophie needs to wake up. Whitney understood the “everyone is safe” mind meld Coach has on the group. Coach will be dictating that Al is next. Unless they wake up the all powerful god of gods, Zeus, going to win this thing. Has Zeus convenced everyone they’re #2 on his ladder? He’s got little Edna wrapped around his finger. He has Sophie turned into a zombie. He’s Brandon’s therapist. Rick is his dog. The only smart people are Al and Cochran. Cochran may not be so smart but he’s brown nosing his way up the ladder hoping for the most hated #3 rung.
If votes were given for game play, Cochran should win but they’re not. Every season, the jury turns into 12 year olds and they vote for the cool kid.
They need to boot Benjamin aka Coach aka The Dragon Slayer aka Zeus next week. Either blindside him or pull his idol out and get rid of Cochran first and Benny next.
Eh, the only good chance to boot coach was this week, they instead targeted Edna of all people - excuse me? Since when does Survivor matter if someone ‘deserves’ to be in the game. Anyone who you think ‘deserves’ to be there is your biggest competition and needs to get put on the jury, or odds are you’re going to lose.
Once I saw them targeting Edna, and her lack of conversation at the council, I actually thought she was going to pull the idol out of her pocket, but alas, they chickened out. Mostly because it wasn’t enough of a target, and there’s where they went wrong. Put Coach and Ozzy in redemption, and worst case scenario is that only one returns. Best is that both go away, and you’re that much closer to winning the game.
The thing that really gets me is how many of these people have watched Survivor and been fans of the game, and act incredibly stupid on the island. Someone who does nothing is not the person you should eject, it’s the one that everyone likes around, or the one who wins challenges. Outwit, or they’ll outlast you.
I’m surprised there is no Ponderosa clip at the CBS site. Jim and Keith, being the first members of the jury, would have arrived there prior to tribal council.
The clips are now up. Stay tuned. :)
That's a fair question, since I rarely comment.
Yes. I do watch the show and I've watched every episode this season - although I don't remember everything that transpired. Also, I'm nowhere near as analytical as my predecessors or the other fans here. However, I do have my likes and dislikes.
Of the people still in the game, I like Albert, Coach, Dawn, Rick, and Sophie.
I don't particularly care for Edna, Ozzy, or Whitney.
I really want to like Brandon and Cochran, but they're such dipshits.
LOL!

I’ve seen better Ponderosa’s, but a bed, shower, toothbrush and unlimited food and beverages are a definite plus. Jim sure likes the brewskies. :)
I would like to see Ponderosa footage. They should incorporate that side of Survivor in the episodes somehow.
No time.
The 72 hours of Island time are edited down to about 43 minutes of TV Time.
We see the edited story line and have to pull stuff from other sites and watch the extra clips to see a little bit more of the picture.
One big complaint of some big time fans is the RI Story Line takes up too much of the air time each week.
Notice also - no reward challenges this season - yet - where the winner has to pick others to share in the reward.
