Today, being Thursday, is Survivor day. I can't wait to see Stephenie freak out over the creepy things in the jungle while she's out there alone. She ought to get a free pass for the next few days just for being out there alone and beating out all of the other Ulongs. Will they merge tonight or is Stephenie in for another few days of torture while Koror goes to tribal council? That would be just like the bastards who run the show.
I know at least a couple of you are big fans of the show, so here's your chance to chime in. What do you think will happen? If you've already seen the show by the time you run across this post, leave comments anyway. I'll update it and repost this after the show with my thoughts.
Spoilers and Update below the fold for you west coast folks and Aussies
Update: Coby is out! Good. That dealt a hell of a blow to the Greg/Jen/Janu/Coby quasi-alliance. Heh. Suckers. Further proof that being a bitch never gets you to the end. And we don't have to watch the blonde grow out of his hair anymore, assuming that he goes to the hairdresser while he's on the jury..... Maybe this proved to Steph that Tom, Ian, and Katie do want her around after all.
Who's out next Janu? Caryn? Greg or Jen?
Posted by caltechgirl at April 14, 2005 04:50 PM | TrackBackI said to Nin last week that I just didn't get it. What if she loses? She just goes away with no tribal council, or will they make her haul her stuff up and snuff out her torch?
I guess since this is the first time a team has been so horrible that they've been picked off one by one, they decided to go with it. I'm never good at paying attention to numbers, so I can't remember at what point they usually merge.
Maybe they'll merge in the morning. After we get her seeming all alone for a night in the jungle segment. Her and her camera crew :)
The dynamics are going to be interesting this time with the other team, and no merging of two different groups.

I saw from when Stephanie arrived at the Koror camp. I think Coby made a tactical error when he gave Stephanie the low-down on the "aliances". He tipped his hand and I'm sure that info got back to Tom/Ian/Katie. Janu looked seriously surprised that coby was voted out. I think she's ready to go and was hoping she would be the one voted off.
Personally I was glad Coby got voted off, I was tired of his constant complaining about Tom and Ian.
Posted by: Contagion at April 15, 2005 08:28 AMI thought it was classy that they just folded Steph into Koror rather than have to come up with another tribal name and new buffs.
Coby gave up. Plain and simple. He quit playing the game, and that's why he was gone. I'm sure Janu is next, unless Greg and Jen heat up. But then again, I'm not sure what the fall out from the vote is going to be....
In any case, Tom, Ian, and Katie just solidified their alliance against Greg and Jen's scheming. If I was in their alliance, I would vote off Greg, Jen, Caryn, and Janu, in that order, since Greg is quite a threat and Tom and Ian are plenty good at providing fish and fire.
Posted by: caltechgirl at April 15, 2005 10:48 AMI missed last week when they left her alone. My first thought this week was "huh?" My second was "why didn't they do this sooner?" It is Survivor. Make 'em survive.
Steph fell apart so quickly that I kept asking my daughters how long they had left her there.
Now the previews show that someone else will end up alone next week. Ok, let's not overdo it.
