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!

Paddling a cannon would be an interesting feat!

Greetings fellow Survivor junkies! Its Thursday, so that means its time once again for your weekly:

SURVIVOR PING!

Tonight’s episode is titled: “Exile Island”

From the official SeeBS website, various video promos and spoiler sites across the world wide web, here is what we can expect to see tonight.

"-An unexpected performance by a tribemate during a Challenge results in a victory for the team. Since we are now into the individual immunity challenges, it’s a safe bet that we are talking about a “Team” winning the Reward Challenge here. And also, per the video promos, this challenge consists of teams dragging pieces of a tower into the water, and building said tower to retrieve a flag dangling above said water. Intense studying of said video promos also reveal the teams consists of Tom, Gregg, Caryn and Janu, on one team and Ian, Jenn, Stephenie and Katie on the other. Since the clue is “An unexpected performance by a tribemate . . . “ its also a safe bet that they are talking about Janu. Which means, Tom, Gregg, Caryn and Janu win Reward. A Palauan Feast.

One castaway confronts her tribe, leaving everyone feeling uncomfortable and leaving her feeling alienated. After last week’s look of utter shock on her face when Coby was booted at Tribal Council, Janu really lets her tribe have it.

A twist at a Challenge brings very bad news for one Survivor. The Immunity Challenge consists of a variation on the old “Hold your breath underwater” challenge. The winner gets immunity, and the first to “bail” or give up will spend a night all alone on “Exile Island.” (Hence the title of the episode.)

In danger of going on the chopping block, a Survivor makes a heartfelt plea not to be voted off. Will this plea fall on deaf ears? We know that the women of Koror (namely Jenn & Caryn and to a lesser degree Katie & Janu) feel that Stephenie is a threat and want to boot her as soon as possible. Can Stephenie survive the Koror Kurse? Tune in and see.

Well, there you have it:

Cuz’s Weekly Survivor Picks!

Reward Challenge winner – Team Tom, Gregg, Caryn and Janu.
Immunity Challenge winner - Tom
Bootee (and 2nd member of the Jury) - She gets her wish! Janu.

Take care,

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming....
Wow, what a ride!"

Freepmail me if you want added to or removed from the Survivor Ping List!

OPPS! Fat finger syndrome strikes again!

Absent a trained diver..women actually have an advantage in the "Hold your breath underwater" contests...they use far less xygen..sasmall bodies..if they stay calm..However, you'd have to figure the dolphin trainer, Ian, has the advantage in this one..

[piperpilot]

Who are you picking for exile?

You have been added to the Survivor Ping List.
Welcome to the madhouse!

And to answer your question, I've consulted the magic crystal coffee cup and it says without a doubt that JANU is the first to bail out on the Immunity Challenge. It therefore follows that she is the "exiled" Survivor.

It should be noted that nowhere in the promos or the spoiler sites is it mentioned that the person who is exiled is also immune from bootee-dom.

"It should be noted that nowhere in the promos or the spoiler sites is it mentioned that the person who is exiled is also immune from bootee-dom."

That crossed my mind when I read your synopsis. I'm thinking it's designed to help stir things up. You can't work on your alliances if you aren't there. An otherwise not-so-likely bootee might be hamstrung and picked off if they aren't there to make a stand.

(I think I just used up my quota of metaphors for this week.)

[sockmonkey]

I am ready for tonight's episode Right Now! Unfortunately, I still have to wait another forty five minutes...I am wondering who will bail first.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Caryn and Jenu are out of their minds.

They just lost brownie points big time.

[MotleyGirl70]

Rude!

[mystery-ak]

Howdy....

[NYTexan]

Looks like Jenu is dead meat!

[junkyarddawg]

[MotleyGirl70]

Janu should be the next to go.
