WOW tonight’s show made up for the boring show last week! Deals (good deals) were flying around and everyone was playing a good game. Terry is still dominating the strategizing and the immunity challenges. Some players got breakfast in bed, some stuck in the sand, and one voted off – bye Austin we’ll I’ll miss you!!
Topics this week:
- Is Terry’s strategy a good one? Is he using his options wisely?
- Should you remain loyal to your team even if that team is made of crazys and slimeballs (and Cirie)?
We had our first session of BuddyTV tonight – please join us next week at http://www.buddytv.com/. Id is “BetaPreview” and the password is “TVj*2006″. Mike does audio and I manage the chat and polls. We are still new and learning but it is really fun. Hope you can join us.

I’ve never been much of an Austin fan but I really hated to see him go because I’m sick of the whole numbers game. I am still dumbfounded that this band of freaks, which hated each other, is unbreakable.
As for the reaction to Austin’s strategy, Aras is over dramatizing everything because he is starting to feel threatened. He is getting paranoid. That’s why he threw his little fit with Courtney. I can’t believe after Casaya made it perfectly clear they were voting off La Mina, They were all shocked and disgusted that Austin would miss lead them. Screw them all (except Cirie) they’re all psycho!!! I love the fact that Cirie brought up at tribal council that Aras’s reward challenge strategy was just to help himself and not everyone else as he presented it.
I think Terry’s attempt to sway Danielle and Bruce was genius. Unfortunately they are both idiots and I will enjoy seeing them get picked off as #5 and #6, if they make it that far! I was hoping that Terry would have slipped Austin the idol but at this point I guess the smart thing to do is to hold onto it and let it take you as far as it can. Unfortunately, he missed the opportunity to change the whole game when he let Nick get voted off last week. I still think it was a great attempt after the half-harded attempt he made last week.
As for sticking to alliances, I still say Cirie should have jumped ship first chance she had. I hope her loyalty to the funny farm doesn’t hurt her in the end. I think I would like her to win. It probably won’t happen but I think she deserves it for being stuck with that bunch for so long.
Till next week!
Ok, so I think that the smartest thing for Terry to have done to get the numbers back and the game shaken up would have been to have given Nick the immunity idol two weeks ago and then Shane would be gone. Then the #s would be 5-4 and Casaya would be missing their leader. Then, at least he would have had some power… I think it was stupid of Danielle and Bruce to not accept. Whatever. I’m downloading the podcast this moment and cant wait to hear your ops!
–Ellie =.)
Hi all! I was just calling Austin those names, well because Oustin…OUSTin. Osten, I dunno where that came from.
It was sad watching Cirie trying to squeeze through those logs, I don’t think that was nice of Mark Burnett to do that to Cirie at all. Sally is like Cindy! I wish she has a twin sis!…Well no I don’t actually. Me and Ellie were talking about how Danielle’s bra fell of in the challenge and wondered why Mike did not even talk about it. Oh well. I’m rooting for Courtney now. She’s wierd like me, wierd people shall over come!
Terry is all over the place. He is like the WILLIAM HUNG of SURVIVOR. I hate him sooo much he is actually pretty good, not! Well, we all know that he is trying his best, but his fighter pilot-ness will cause his demise pretty soon. I think everyone knows that he won’t be getting Austin’s vote is he makes it to the Final 2! Haha..the slow motion of if Terry was going to whip it out.
I would remain so loyal to my team it wouldn’t be funny. I mean pick off the first four. Boom! You have your own team to pick off. If you don’t stick true to your alliance that would be pretty dumb. Even if you absolutely HATE those people, don’t show your true self too much or else your out.
John- I don’t think that if you had 6 people in your tribe and you betrayed all of them for another 5, you wouldn’t get those votes. La Mina wouldn’t care because they were skrewed the moment they went to Casaya beach. But Cirie rocks! Go Cirie! The new LYDIA!
Mike- about the keeping your mouth shut thing…Let’s see your stranded on a deserted island for quite a while. All that stress and no sleep can get a person cranky. After all, humans love to brag and watch other’s suffer…well at least some people do. But yeah, if I ever go on, I’ll just keep it cool and tell me self to shut up all day long and just talk to the cameras.
Is it just me or was Thailand’s Ancient Voices (the beginning theme) on the infamous SURVIVOR Febreeze Family Moment? Ahh well it does not matter.
Bye!
P.S. TERRY LIKE TOM AND IS HORRIBLE. HATE HIM NEVER WANT TO GO ON SURVIVOR WITH SOMEONE LIKE HIM. EVER.
P.P.S I am trying a new thing where I don’t post as often.
Predictions!
Reward:Terry
Immunity:Courtney
Exile Island:Aras
Voted Out:Terry(he’s going to give Danielle/Bruce the idol. Then Danielle/Bruce double crosses him and he is out. And it gives one of them one less vote at the Finals, but they last longer!)
ewww next week Cirie faces the wrath of Shane’s genitals. If I were in that situation. I would say some thing along the lines of, “GET THAT (s-word) AWAY FROM ME!” Stay strong Cirie!
Hello!
I’ve been trying to figure out why Terry didn’t slip Austin the immunity idol. By doing that, he could have pulled off two things at once – he could have gotten rid of Aras and broken up the “6″ and he could have made brownie points. Ya gotta know that as soon as he uses that idol, he’ll be bounced out at the first opportunity. He’s running out of friends, but he could have made some.
Oh well, he showed his hand. He’s looking out for #1, no doubt.
I like Sally, but am afraid she’ll be next to go.
Don’t know what Bruce and Danielle, especially Danielle, are thinking. Wonder what they’re not showing us.
Gotta agree with you all about the log challenge. It was stacked against Cirie. Ya knew that before Jeff even said ‘go.’
And I agree with John, can’t believe this bunch of 6 are so tight. They act like they’re circling each other all the time. No wonder they all act like wackos. The stress much be ridiculous.
So whattaya think? Is the car prize or food auction next?
Ok, sorry about repeating what Kevin’s been saying in an earlier post.
Mike- why didnt’t you talk more about Danielle’s swimsiut accident? The only thing we heard about it is in the intro to the show…? About that, If they didn’t blur that stuff, in the preview we would have seen some of Shane’s stuff… not good. lol.
Now we can have a girl’s alliance comming up soon… I mean it’s Cirie, Courtney, Danielle, Sally to Terry, Shane, Aras, and Bruce. Next week, Sally and Terry might ask the girls to come over, vote off the Casaya guys and then vote off Terry (who will then of course, take out his hidden immunity idol)? could that be possible?
I agree with Mike and Marjie about the reward being lame-o… the bed was SOAKING WET!!! I wanted to call into Survivor Live from the Library at school to ask Austin if he listens to your podcast and if the teams on that challenge were chosen fairly with the whole Shane, Terry, Austin team(on past Survivor Lives, people have mentioned that challenges were not fair).
Predictions:
Reward: SURVIVOR AUCTION! Shane wins family visit from Boston, takes (Aras?)
Exiled: I think that if Survivor Auction, the family member of the winner gets to choose (without their Suvivor’s help) who to exile. Terry goes.
Immunity: Terry
Voted Off: If girl’s alliance, Danielle will convince them to vote off Aras (for exiling her). If not, Sally.
Thanks again for great podcasts!
–Ellie, =.)
Ellie – Ms. A-B would let you do that? Anyways, I’m going to call in this week to ask the next person out. I would want Jenna M. (omg best SURVIVOR next to Steph and Rafe ever!) and Dalton to listen. That would get you guys so far. You are the best Mike and Marji!
Winson, I agree, Jenna’s the best Survivor EVER!!! PUBLICITY FOR THE PODCAST! YAY!
John – you are right Aras is NERVOUS. I wouldn’t be too shocked if they boot him out very soon. Shane will want him to go since he is a strong male and he has irrated the woman so much they will vote him off. Dude – use your yoga training and relax!!!!
Ellie and Winson – Jenna as the best Survivor???? You’ll have to explain that one. But, if we can get more publicity for our show you may be able to convice me :- ) Thanks for your calls too.
Cindy – I am going to agree with Ellie and say that the family member auction challenge is next. Food will be next AND then the car. Though I haven’t seen many previews so I could be off. Do you think they will give the winner the option of taking the car or giving one to all the rest?
Marji- They wouldn’t do that again (giving everyone a car). It wouldn’t be as fun as last time… maybe something different like you get a car or everyone else gets a feast? I dunno, they just probably wont do that again.
The reasons why Jenna rocks: She was under the radar until the end when she got those Immunities. She’s funny on the Survivor Live show and (the reason why everyone on Survivor is the best, she was on Survivor) lol.
Marji – Jenna is like 10th on my list. First is Steph, heh I know I loved her on Palau and Guatemala. She rocks.
Well the reason why Jenna is the best is because she won SURVIVOR: THE AMAZON of course, then she stayed strong on All-Stars! I mean if my mom died, I would be in a nervous breakdown and be locked up in a little room for many years.
CIRIE IS LIKE 1 plus 1! She tops Steph! And Courtney! Go people who annoy others! He he I bet Courtney will go to the Final 3! Yay she is sooo cool! And Cirie will be like Lydia. A free ride only to be voted out in the long run.
This week, since Ellie and I have spring break, we can call in, well I won’t because I hate my girly voice on the phone. But I think Ellie will. Ellie, will you?
Weeeee Spring BREAK! I’m going to watch SURVIVOR, BORNEO, AUSTRALIA, and PEARL ISLANDS! yay!
Great podcasts bye the way.
yes I’ll call in! maybe they’ll give me a buff… yeah, Steph’s great too! agreeable about the locked up in room sobbing if my mom died *sob* *sob*… Marji, i have to admit it, but i think austin was really cute and good looking too… yay!!! love spring break… have you seen Jade J-H’s myspace? she says she loves u winson… lol.
bye!
Hey Guys,
great podcast.
Poor Marji. Austin is gone.
The saddest thing on Survivor Live is that Austin looked almost exactly like Blake from last season. His hair was the same, and they sort of look the same. Scary.
Shane is probably dropping trou in front of Cirie because she is a nurse. I wish her luck in helping him with his “chafing” problem. Ew.
On the CBS site, the previews for next week say something like, “One man becomes a girl and wears a skirt”. Shane? Or Aras? Wait… I’ll bet it’s Terry! Either way, creepy.
Looking forward to next episode (sort of)…bye!
Ellie – Ewwww Austin! Nasty. Osten! lol No, the hottest has got to be Courtney! Yay! Go yoga! Not like we see any of that anymore. Why is Austin so hot? If I was a girl, I would pick Aras, ONLY IF I WAS A GIRL. Yes, I have seen it, it’s that type of 7th grade “loving” stuff that means that we are good friends…She doesn’t love me, nor do I want her to.
Hanna – EWWWW MORE! Blake sucks. “Golden Boy” His face was so ugly it was impossible for me to watch.
Does anyone here have AIM? Chat rooms!
PREDICTIONS-
REWARD: Terry
EXILE: Aras
IMMUNITY: Terry
VOTED OFF: Sally
Winson- Yes, Blake is ugly.
You guys are so funny! I think Blake and Austin are both cute, but Blake was waaay too much of a little snot.
Aras is reminding me of the way Jamie was acting when he started wigging out, remember? paranoia will destroy ya…
Yeah, I’m agreeing with you all. I think they won’t do the ‘giving everyone a car’ option again. Hope they’ll pull something new out of the hat.
A man wearing a skirt? That’s surely gotta be Shane. With that little preview we got. Gawd, they should give Cirie a reward for having to put up with that!!! GAK! It should be like a Fear Factor award or something.
Cindy-
Haha! You make me crack up! And no. BLAKE IS THE MOST HIDEOUS SNOT I HAVE EVER SEEN.
“Paranoia will destroy ya!” That is from Rupert!
I feel sorry for Cirie, but hopefully Courtney will not have to suffer, Yoga Girl(I will now refer to her as that) is so cool. Better than any Austin. Sorry Marji I’m jsut kidding! Well no…
Click on my name!
Aras = Arse
Cindy- Shane wearing a skirt would be at least better than him wearing his underwear, like in the reward challenge.
Winson- Why do you want us to go to yahoo.com? (yes, I clicked on your name)
Blake is ugly.
Hanna – ARAS does not equal ARSE! He is so much higher than that!
Yeah, I am really bored since it’s spring break, so I thought it would be fun…that is why I am posting too much.
Oh, yeah! Yay, Winson, Rupert is still my all-time favorite!
A question for everyone… Is it just me or does there seem to be a lot of really caustic people in this Survivor? (AND that they happened to all land on the same team probably amplifies it)
They have to go thru such a strenuous series of interviews and psych tests before they are even accepted. I was just wondering if this bunch was selected to be together intentionally?
Hmmm…
Another thing, what are you doing online so much if you’re on spring break, Winson?? Don’t you know you’re supposed to be out having some fun?
Aras was an Arse last time. I’m not saying he is in real life.
I swear on Shane’s kids life this is my last post this week.
DAMN PIXELATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey this is cool — we can swear on Shane’s kids anything we want to have done but don’t necessarily want to commit to doing.
I swear on Shane’s kids Shane will stop being such a pecker.
I swear on Shane’s kids Summit County Government (particularly Akron City Government) will fly straight and actually serve the people.
Goddammit! Let’s go for broke
I swear on Shane’s kids there will be world peace before the first day of summer.
Thanx Hanna – that was a great idea.
Slappy — you’re right. Just imagine how much A-B porn we could get from a few of these challenges. Oy!
Okay, I am going with Hanna until Thursday’s show. I post too much.
I swear on Shane’s kid that I will post tomorrow.
I don’t know if anyone else on this blog said this because I didn’t read it….I’m at work….ha ha…anyway I just wanted to put my 2 cents in…..you guys keep talking about how Shane is the “leader.” Personally, I think Aras is the puppet master and he’s just letting Shane “think” he’s running the show. One example, at the reward challange Aras was yelling at the girls team to gang up on Shane, Terry and Austin with the coconuts. He’s yelling ORDERES out at ANOTHER TEAM! Then when it came to picking who goes to Exile Island Aras chimed right up and sent Austin and Danielle. Aras is running the show.
OH and I pulling for Cirie to win the whole damn thing because she weasled her way from LAST place to near top in the psycotic foursome! She’s playing the BEST game out there if you ask me. Plus she’s freaking HILARIOUS!
So.
Austin grabs his torch.
Pauses. Will Terry give me the idol.
Pauses. Will Terry give me the idol? Come on. Come on.
Linger.
Linger.
Shit.
So Terry reveals his true colors. He is DEFINITELY holding out for a hero… or at least himself. (heh)
Now, strategically, the other team is going to have to start voting off their own. And #5 and #6 are gonna come knocking on Terry’s door when they realize they are on the chopping block.
Ar-”ass” is definitely running the show… or trying to. And when he realizes Terry has the idol, he’s not gonna want Terry to use it to vote himself (Ar-ass) off by having the 2nd number of votes. So Ar-ass is going to say four people vote for Terry and two people vote for Bruce (or Coconuts…er… Danielle). Or 3 for Terry and 2 and 1 for someone else. We’ll see.
BUT… when that “someone else” (Bruce or Coconuts) gets wind of it… BOOM!
So.
I think that REWARD will go to BRUCE.
I think that IMMUNITY will go to SHANE.
I think they will vote for TERRY… but he’ll use the idol and ARAS will be gone.
Could happen.
But – to tell ya the truth – I’d rather be surprised.
So… I’m just hoping for some more bouncy challenges and less pixelation!!! Otherwise I have to squint really hard to blur it together.
Mark Burnett, you evil sumbitch.
There is alot of insight here so far. It is great to hear from all sides to get people perspective on how the next show will be. Reading the posts, it seems that anything can happen. Just when I think I have it all figured out, bam!, a twist comes and throws all my thougths in the toilet.
Cant wait to watch this next episode tonight.
Great Blog BTW folks.
