Survivor : Palau

Recommended Posts

So the new season of Survivor started on Thursday. Did anybody watch it? And if so what did you think?

 

I thought that starting with 20 people was weird. And then the two leaving immediately and the two tribes living on the same beach was cool.

 

I'm glad they sent that Joe chick home b/c she was irritating. And it kind of annoyed me that they were going to send that Angie chick home just b/c she had tattoo's and piercings and was different than everyone else. That was stupid.

 

Also the brown colored tribe losing their fire was hilarious too.

 

My early favorite to make it to the end is that kid with glasses who won the first male immunity.

Yeah, dolphin trainer, so if they do a lot of swimming challenges, he'll be a huge asset.

 

Anyways, it's a good start, and hopefully they introduce some new aspects to the game that keep it interesting.

I watched it, and thought it was just Ok ... not as much eye-candy as in the past, and as much as I hate to admit it that's the main thing that keeps me tuning in each & every week.

 

It also pissed me off that they'd keep the old guy with both ears pierced (Willard?) instead of the younger guy. Yeah, the younger guy seemed like a tool, but it'd make more sense to have as strong a team as possible (to win challenges) and then vote the tool off later.

 

And it kind of annoyed me that they were going to send that Angie chick home just b/c she had tattoo's and piercings and was different than everyone else. That was stupid.
The fact that she exhibited next-to-no physical skills didn't help her, either.

The whole team was performing like crap on that challenge. Nobody exhibited any physical skills or brains for that matter. Especially when they couldn't figure out how to row the damn boat.

 

I thought there was plenty of eye candy. I dunno I like chicks with tattoo's and piercings. So that Angie chick running around in next to nothing helped.

I'm not sure about that level of tattooing though - too much ink for my taste.

 

As for her chances, for once I agree with the TWoP monkeys in that she needs to get over the "I was picked last, nobody likes me" mentality and play the game, or she's toast.

She may end up being one of those sleepers that makes it to the end. There's always one that you think has no shot in hell when the show first starts. In this case watch it be Willard though. Haha.

Dama, I agree with both of your points, to an extent.

 

Yes, the whole team did poorly but she seemed to stick out (maybe because I was paying more attention to her; more details in the 2nd paragraph). She seemed to be blown up (sorry for the wrestling term) while doing the obstacle course and then did as piss-poor as everyone else during the rowing. Of course, all of this happened after she was chosen last in the team-picking competition. IMHO, she just looks like she's not fit or in shape, and when you really don't know much about the people before picking teams, something like looking out of shape won't help win you any favors.

 

And more than that, I agree with you on tats & pierces on a girl being hot. Hell, I use Fractal from SG as my avatar, and just ended a relationship with a multi-pierced, multi-tatted waitress. But my fetish includes ATTRACTIVENESS along with the freakiness. While watching the replay at the bar on Saturday my friends were busting my balls over Angie ... my response was "other than her heinous body & average at best face, she's pretty hot." There were two Barbie-doll blondes that were hot, though.

And here I thought the correct answer to that would be "Whatever dude. You'd still do her because she's still hotter than YOUR girlfriend / you haven't gotten laid in 6 months"...

 

There were two Barbie-doll blondes that were hot, though.

Oddly enough, I can't remember them. This is somewhat disturbing. Not that I'm into blondes (although Lena from the last Amazing Race is an exception) but I should at least be able to remember the Hot Chicks...

Starvenger, your response would have worked for like 90% of my friends ... unfortunately the 2 that were busting my balls are married (technically, one just lives with his girlfriend but they've been together long enough that they almost count as common-law marriage) and thus both get laid at least as often as I do.

 

And don't feel too bad about not remembering the two blondes ... again, they're really not that hot.

Yep, you're right. And Ashlee's headshot makes her look like Mary Lynn Rajskub's (Chloe from 24) twin.

 

The Amazing Race 7 seems to present a similar problem, as Amber seems like the best looking woman in the Race...

So, apparently Angie, "the weak one" is actually a challenge machine when it comes to the individual stuff.

 

And Stephanie's not too bad. Kinda like a skinnier version of Nicole from Survivor: Rupert...

There really isn't much in the "true" hottie dept this time around, Rudo. But you've got some variety:

 

- Angie, the tattooed / pierced chick

- Stephanie, the skinny chick

- Janu, the really skinny chick who btw is a Vegas Showgirl AND rock climber

- Katie, the slightly bigger chick with large hooters

- Kim, um, I'll get back to you

I finally got to watch last Thursday's episode last night ... man, whoever came up with the "only the clothes on their back" premise is a softcore genius. I haven't seen that many girls in their bras on primetime TV in ... forever.

 

I think that they were dumb for keeping Kim over Ashlee ... if Kim really is in intimate cahoots with that guy, then keeping them together is just dumb. Vote off the girlfriend before she & the boyfriend can brainwash anyone into alligning with them. And then just vote off Ashlee next time.

 

Having said that, though, aesthetically Kim >>> Ashlee, so I - as a viewer - was hoping Kim would stay around.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing... If Kim does an Amber and breezes her way into the final 2 with Jeff, I will be severely pissed. These people would have surely seen previous Survivors to know what's going on with Jeff and Kim!

 

Ashlee had a nice set of tits though...

Tricky strategy here. You could of course kick one of them off now, or you could try your luck with a Final Five alliance with Jeff, Kim and two others and hope that any twist doesn't fuck it up. Personally I'd get rid of one of them ASAP, although if Ashlee asked to be voted off like has been rumoured, they made the right choice.

I had a dream I was on Survivor. I survived the first cut and made an alliance with someone. Then I woke up so I never know what became of it further.

 

But still I think whereas Boston Rob was just in it for strategy and then he fell in love Jeff is just a horny bastard looking to ride someone's coattails and possibly ride something else.

 

I don't think they are smart enough to pull it off. And nobody noticed the Boston Rob/Amber dynamic early. Everyone has noticed them already.

 

What I hate is how everyone on this show are a bunch of Lemmings. They're all like "Let's vote Kim!" and then Jeff and some other guy are like "No Ashlee!" and they're like "No not a tie! Ok Ashlee!"
