Survivor 48

[MrPryck2U]

Holy crap, we're up to Season 48! Loved the Season Premiere. Love the cast so far except for maybe 1 or 2 people. That first challenge would have killed me within 30 seconds. Wrong person got voted off first, but whatever. Looks like an exciting season.

 

[Hewson]

I think they couldn't go wrong with either Steph or Sai going first. Just have to get the other one next. Both are poor players for different reasons.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yeah, either one could have been gone. The thing that I thought was pretty cool was when they started off the show with the footage of the contestants being told they made it on to the show. They've shown some audition footage, but never that before.

 

[MrPryck2U]

First blindside of the season and its well-played. Didn't see that one coming.

 

[Hewson]

That green team is going to lose every challenge until they do a team swap or something.
What a pathetic group.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yeah, they were pretty terrible. I'm glad they didn't vote out Mary. I like her.

 

[Hewson]

Green team loses again. Color me shocked.
Sucks that they get the tribe switch to save their lame asses next week.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yup. They were terrible. Justin should have been honest with Cedrek. It would have saved him from getting voted out. No one is gonna like Sai. Lol! Naturally, you had to know something wacky was gonna go down at TC. It was a little after 9 when they were headed to TC. When Mary played one of my favorite Ozzy songs and was deemed safe, I cheered. I like how Mary was pretty much like "Fuck You" to Sai.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Last night, I fell asleep during the show and woke up at the very end when Thomas was speaking his parting thoughts. Watched what I missed the next morning. Well, played. Goodbye, Thomas! Didn't really like him.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Great episode last night! Sai keeps surviving these TC's. Our man Jeff actually cried, and I can definitely understand why. Quite an emotional moment at the end of that challenge. Cedrek picked a good time to betray Bianca. She can't get any revenge on the jury.

 

[Hewson]

That moment between Joe and Eva was something. Seems to be a real good guy.

Only way Sai is still there is the show has to be scripted, and producers keep telling Cedrek to keep her there cause villains make for ratings. Get her off my TV.

 

[MrPryck2U]

I wasn't sad to see Charity go. Sai survives another TC.

 

[Hewson]

Yeah, they couldn't go wrong with taking out either Charity or Sai. I have a feeling Sai stays till very late in the game. It's in the script.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Yeah, I could see Sai being around late in the game. She was the only one that didn't vote for Charity. Guess she was a little out of the loop. Lol!

 

[MrPryck2U]

2 great dismissals last night! Sai goodbye! And poor Cedrek. Nobody spelled his name right. Then there's David during the challenge. Good Lord even. Could anybody be more in love with themselves? He probably pleasures himself to his mirror's reflection. That dude's vanity is gonna be his downfall. I was starting to get nauseous towards the end of that challenge thanks to him. Then Chrissy finally gets some decent airtime during TC and she's starts blathering on about shit no one cared about.

 

[Hewson]

Chrissy put a target squarely on her back at Tribal. Saying the quiet part out loud that she'd be gunning for the physical threats.
David could have stayed on that challenge for a few hours it seemed. Nobody was beating him. Admirable effort by Joe. The way he was encouraging Eva to hang in there, he seems like a great person. Hope he goes far even though he's not a great strategist and that will ultimately be his downfall.
Thank heavens Sai is gone and not on the jury. She had quite the opinion of herself, "These people are obsessed with me". No honey, they aren't obsessed, they're annoyed with and tired of you.
Ced really wasn't cut out for Survivor. Lasted as long in that challenge as Rick Pitino did with the waitress in the Italian restaurant. But he's a good guy so glad he can at least be on the jury.

 

[MrPryck2U]

I'm definitely rooting for Joe. Even more than Eva. Kind of funny that a Sai and a Ced were voted out of the game. Lol! Like you said, he wasn't cut out for the game. Nice enough guy, though. Shauhin was funny during the challenge when he imitated the chants you hear during the show.

 

[MrPryck2U]

So, uhh, Chrissy talked herself out of the game. Lol! Kamilla would have been voted out. That probably would have been the smarter move, but Chrissy just couldn't contain herself. When they finally get David, that will be the big move.

 

[Hewson]

Yeah the woman just couldn't keep her mouth shut. Stupid. Terrible player. You don't discuss that strategy out in the open. You grab one or 2 like-minded players and plot a move. She brought absolutely nothing to the game.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Damn, I almost forgot to mention the most glorious dismissal of the season. I didn't hate David, but I didn't like his attitude. Joe was lucky that David lost his footing in that Immunity Challenge, because David would have won. Eva got lucky with another advantage. Are the stars aligning for her?

 

[Hewson]

Was actually surprised Eva (and by proxy Joe) flipped on David. Figured Eva would be too straight forward considering her autism and just keep the strong player alliance intact.
David couldn't keep things low key enough.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Joe was insulted by David telling him he went back on his word. Eva at least picked up on David and Mary being "paranoid".

 

[Sicy]

I totally forgot to come here haha! This season is crayyyy and I love it. I am so team Kamilla! She is a stealth ass mastermind and I love every minute of it. Also, she lives in the city I grew up in and where my family is so of course I had to slide into her DM's hahaha. She is so sweet and funny. So glad David is gone. What a DoucheKabob.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Always great when you make a cameo on the Survivor thread! Hewson and I are keeping the tradition going. I like Kamilla, but probably Joe and Eva more. Mitch and Kyle are cool too. Kyle was pretty much getting browbeaten by David.

 

[MrPryck2U]

I liked Star as a person, but she didn't have much game going on. She was just, like, there. Mary survives another TC. Joe better keep winning those Immunity Challenges. They're gunning hard for him. I always love when they plot to vote someone out and that person wins the IC. It looked like that bee was about to sting Joe during that challenge. That slo mo shit during the challenge was crazy.

 

[Hewson]

. I always love when they plot to vote someone out and that person wins the IC.

I said early on to my wife "Joe's winning immunity. The edit is way too focused on them targeting Joe".

Star really never seemed like she was playing the game. Looked like she wasn't even trying during the immunity challenge. I mean your stack of 1 block keeps falling over?
Mary is a bit of a snake, we'll see what she tries to pull off next week.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Oh goodie! Another episode where there's major plotting to eliminate a player and the person doing the plotting gets voted out. Mary really had no choice. A golden opportunity to get Joe out is squandered. A good episode, though. David stands up from his jury seat after Mary's torch is snuffed. A sign of loyalty and solidarity. Good grief. I guess they have a gym at Ponderosa. It doesn't look the dude is missing his workouts. Anyway, it looks like the other players better get their shit together because Eva and Joe are running this game.

 

[Hewson]

Mary was too overtly snake-like. This season the players suck at under the radar stuff whereas last season they were great at it, and we had like 69 blind sides in a row. Kamila is the only one who seems to be playing behind the scenes, we'll see if it matters.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Right! I'm so bad. It was last season where they had 5 players get voted out with Idols? 4 in a row? Mary didn't mess around in telling Joe she was gonna vote him out. Joe was trying his best to not freak out but he kinda did anyway. Lol! People on Facebook were actually wondering why David stood up when Jeff snuffed Mary's torch. Really? I like Kamila. If she won, it would be great, but I do like Joe and Eva. I like Kyle and Shaheen too. Forgot how to spell his name. Lol! The challenges have been mostly a greatest hits.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Poor Shauhin got screwed. Joe keeps dominating. Life is great when you have the Idol around your neck. Kyle and Kamila keep plotting. What will be become of their secret alliance? Eva keeps sailing along. Mitch is flying under the radar. Can Eva still play her Idol?
