Survivor: Caramoan — Fans vs. Favorites

Brandon on the aftershow. He’s still heated.

Parvati picks Cochran to win. Coach picks Phillip.

[PeteB570]

I dislike Cochran but think he has a good chance of winning.

Since there are no mental giants playing this time it will boil down to one of the worms winning. Cochran is king of the worms.

With nobody dominating the mental game the strong players are going to take each other out after the merge until the worms are in control.

Welcome back EveningStar!

[Uncle Chip]

Hey welcome back Evening Star.

[Uncle Chip]

Well the colored easter eggs gave us the Bold and the Beautiful vs the Dumb and the Desperate and their first vote has just about guaranteed that they will lose every challenge until the merge.

With nobody dominating the mental game the strong players are going to take each other out after the merge until the worms are in control.

There are too many playing under the radar. The only exceptions are Phillip and Sherrie. Andrea thinks she's out front but is hiding behind Phillip. The merge can't come soon enough.

Geez, shut up already, Phillip. It's all me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! me! Just shut up.

What the heck was all of Corrine's "Save the gay! I love gays!"? Did the production crew have her repeat herself for the cameras or is she just as bad as Phillip repeating herself?

Wow, Malcolm actually spoke tonight. Whew, I was sooo worried but thankfully Eddie has his Team Beautiful People back (obligatory /s). Who was that Julia person and when did she get to the island?

[PeteB570]

Well, so much for the tribal shake up. Both tribes have 4 Favs & 3 Fans.

As soon as I saw the new tribes and could get a count I told the wife that the Favs would hold tough and the Favs splinter. Thats just what happened.

I think the Favs know - win or lose - they make the merge as long as they vote off the Fans.

Look for the Favs strong guys to take hits until the merge.

Both tribes have 4 Favs & 3 Fans.

And what are the odds of that from an honest easter egg roll of the dye???

The eggs were obviously divided that way to give that result.

But how they got all the bold and beautiful on one tribe is a mystery and how and why they voted Matt out instead of Julia is also a mystery.

That being said, I see Phillip's tribe losing and losing with the remaining Fans there [Michael, Julia] voted out, while the Fans on Malcom's tribe staying safe for now since the Bold and Beautiful won't be losing any challenges.

And since they are now down to 13, the Merge can't be more than two tribal councils away. It might even be next week.

[PeteB570]

Might run two tribes through next week when # 13 goes home.

Start the 2nd week’s episode with the tribal merge and then 1/2 hour of camp life followed by the II Challenge and TC.

[Persevero]

” Jeff said the psychologist determined Brandon stable enough to return for another season.”

Brandon cycles. He can be fine for a time, then he cycles up. Mr. Psychologist probably analyzed him during a normal cycle. Psychology can only do so much. Not much, IMO.

[Persevero]

“What the heck was all of Corrine’s “Save the gay! I love gays!””

I didn’t even know that guy was gay. I was all happy because for once Survivor didn’t have a Political Agenda Advancement Token Gay Guy. Well, at least he doesn’t prance.

[Uncle Chip]

Is there a Nordstroms on the island. It looks like some to the girls are sporting new threads.

Interesting side note: The French version of Survivor just cancelled their 16th season after a contestant dies of a heart attack during the first day of shooting.

[girlscout]

I just heard about this. So sad. He was so young and looked like he was no stranger to hard core workouts.

[Uncle Chip]

This might prove to be one of the more boring episodes as Phillip’s team is destined to lose the ic, and unless Julia and Michael can mount a challenge against Phillip and bring two more into it, Michael will saying good bye.

The big thing to look forward to will be Phillip and Malcom bumping heads at the merge.

Sounds like those young athletes who suddenly drop dead of heart attacks. Odds are he could have died relaxing in his bark-o-lounger watching the show as being on the show. Too bad and all but nothing to cancel a show over.
