SURVIVOR: PALAU
premiering Thursday, February 17 at 8 pm ET/PT.

Greetings Survivor FReeks!

Its time once again for a new season of Survivor!

“Twenty Americans are stranded in Palau, the South Pacific paradise some call the 8th natural wonder of the world, where colorful wildlife, dense jungles and an underwater world beyond belief are haunted by the wreckage and remnants of World War II.
From the beginning, the game will be changed in a dramatic way: everything the Survivors have come to expect will be wiped out in the first 10 minutes.
Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast all others in Palau?”

According to the official website, there will only be one tribe (at least for starters) and three contestants will get the boot during the first show.

Should be interesting!

CHECK OUT THE JUDGES NAME IN THIS CASE, EX-SURVIVOR!!!

Teen girl, ex-girlfriend admit killing grandparents 'so we could be together' AP via Boston.com ^ | 14 April 2005 | Errin Haines Posted on 04/14/2005 3:29:16 PM EDT by Fractal Trader FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. (AP) A 15-year-old girl and her ex-girlfriend pleaded guilty Thursday to stabbing her grandparents to death last summer so the young couple could be together. Holly Harvey told the judge that while she was knifing her 73-year-old grandmother, ''my eyes were closed the whole time.'' Harvey pleaded guilty to two counts of malice murder and was sentenced to two consecutive life sentences. She will not be eligible for parole for 20 years. Sandy Ketchum, 16, was sentenced to three life terms, to be served concurrently. Sarah Collier and her husband, Carl Collier, 74, were each stabbed numerous times Aug. 2 inside the couple's house in northern Fayette County, outside Atlanta. As part of her plea, Harvey detailed how she killed the couple. She said she and Ketchum had stayed out all night, then spent the morning of the killings listening to music in her basement bedroom. That was when Ketchum suggested stealing the grandparents' truck ''to get something to calm us down,'' Harvey said. '''We'll have to kill them to do that,''' Harvey said she responded. ''But I didn't mean nothing by that,'' she told Judge Pascal English. Ketchum first suggested hitting them in the head with a lamp, then suggested getting a knife, Harvey said. ''I got the biggest knife I could find out of the kitchen,'' she said, adding that they practiced stabbing a mattress to see if the knife was sharp enough. [SNIP] When the judge asked Harvey why she did it, the teen said, ''For Sandy,'' and added, ''So that we could be together.'' (Excerpt) Read more at boston.com ...

I think last nights episode was one of the best. I don't know why, but I had no idea Coby would be going. I didn't read your prediction yesterday.

If they hadn't kicked Coby off, they would have had to kill him!!! What a jerk. Did anyone else see Janu's reaction? She wanted to go.

[tob2]

I saw Janu's reaction. Could not believe it. With so few people left, she'll be on the jury and have to hang around for awhile. Gosh, didn't she know what she was getting into when she agreed to be on Survivor?

[SittinYonder]

Did anyone else see Janu's reaction?

The way she's been lazing around and jumped off with Coby, I think she thought she wouldn't have to start playing until Stephanie was voted off.

Coby acted as if they voted him off because he's strong, but I told my wife that first vote after the merge is always an annoyance vote: you get rid of the person most annoying, not the biggest threat. Coby should have seen it coming with the way he was behaving, because he was the most annoying.

[Veto!]

Interesting about Pascal putting perps behind bars. He was a great Survivor!

[Veto!]

Survivor Vatican City! What a hoot.

Golllleeee, I'm glad that simpering sob sister Coby got the boot directly in his swishy derriere. He brought it on himself, because had he behaved better, he might have gone a long way on the strength of his ability to do those challenges pretty darned well. He did have a tad of swashbuckler in him and might have gained respect.

But his team never knew whether he would swish or swash next. Sort of like Kerry.

Did you notice during the close-ups last night that Katie has manged to either A) gain about 20 15 lbs, or, B) she's pregnant..she has a belly...

BTW..been back to Bill's church lately?

[luckystarmom]

I'm pulling for Steph, then Tom or Ian.

[luckystarmom]

If I was the rest of the survivors, I would vote off Caryn before Janu. Caryn is smart, and she is fairly physical. Janu just wants off, and she's not smart enough to foil any alliances. I'd let her be miserble for a lot longer.

[MotleyGirl70]

Steph is my all-time favorite woman ever to play this game.

Her will to survive this game is none like I've seen in the past ( either men or women). She was scared on her own, which shows her vulnerable side, but her strength, determination and endurance to win this thing is something I admire most about her.

Damn, I wish I abs like hers though :)

[luckystarmom]

Even if she doesn't win Survivor, I hope someone hires her to do something.

She's got a lot of spunk!

[CheneyChick]

She has a nice smile, too. Great teeth.

[CheneyChick]

Hey cuz, what the heck was Coby's little speech at the end - our network cut it off mid-sentence.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

lol. Survivor Vatican City :-)

Those friendly natives last night haven't missed any meals. I think there is a MickeyD's on the other side of the island :-D

[tob2]

lol

Coby acted as if they voted him off because he's strong, but I told my wife that first vote after the merge is always an annoyance vote: you get rid of the person most annoying, not the biggest threat. Coby should have seen it coming with the way he was behaving, because he was the most annoying.

I'm not sure about the annoying vote, but he certainly had it in him to be one heck of a threat, gathering the weak votes to get rid of the strong. Without him, most of the others in the low end of the pack will go meekly like sheep (unless one of the strong group figures out that it'd be a lot easier with a pack of losers following you about.)
