Survivor Samoa - 10/15 Blog Party Post



The show is about to begin here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this post with any major happenings. However, the real action is in the comments section! Please feel free to join in with your thoughts while having fun with friends. Late tonight my show review will be posted on TV Squad.

Galu won reward -- a BBQ. "Good" Russell sent Shambo to Foa Foa until immunity.

Galu wins immunity.

Ashley was voted out.

Hello Jackie and all! Here we go!

monty924 said...

All Shambo has to say is that she gave Yasmin a sympathy vote. Monica's out for Shambo now, but my money is on the Shambo. :)

Oh yeah,

GO MICK!!!

monty924 said...

Am I talking to myself? LOL

Lisanne said...

Oh no. Still no showing of Foa Foa.

I think this bodes badly for my Galuvians.... :(

monty924 said...

Hi Lisanne! Here comes the gross eating challenge. Oh Boy!

monty924 said...

Samoa smoothie sounds like total yuk to me. Ick!!!

Lisanne said...

Gack. The food challenge always reminds me of Fear Factor.

I think I will grade some papers until they finish this, maybe it will be less gross if I mute it.

Becky said...

Hey, everyone! Oh, the yuk food competition.

monty924 said...

Yeah, go Mick. I couldn't drink any of that stuff!

monty924 said...

Russell S sending Shambo again, and her missing out on the steak, is just another reason for her to swing to Foa Foa at the merge. Hope she makes it to the merge. Go Shambo!

Becky said...

If The Roach's tribe loses immunity tonight, then Ashley will go home because she couldn't eat the fish guts.

Good Russell should have picked someone else. Shambo has already been exiled to the other tribe once. As far as I am concerned, he can go next. He isn't much of a leader.

Becky said...

Russell, you are a dip stick.

monty924 said...

Becky, I agree! Russell S isn't much of a leader. Who takes comfort over a tarp?

Now Russell H is on to Liz. Uh oh, Liz! Not good to get on the little guy's bad side.

Terry is a Texan! said...

Love it Becky!!!

joy n said...

Why does Liz confront Russell about the hidden idol? She should tell the other members of her suspicions. Now Russell is after her butt again.

Sydney said...

Hi ALl-

Here but sick, so laying low

Amazed that AShley had about 1 oz of that shake to go and she could not finish it. Million dollah mistake.

Russell is a dick. The other Russell is too...what was up with all that testy horn locking over the damn fire. A strong leader would know everyone needs to eat so to be a true hero, you get the guy who knows how to make the fire.... And I'd get real busy learning from that guy how to do it in my free time.

Becky said...

Yep, all that comfort is doing G a lot of good.

monty924 said...

Yeah, how do you like those blankets, towels and pillows now? That looks miserable to me.

Sydney said...

Reading the tree mail, his fingers were pruny.

Sydney said...

HEY, I brought antibiotics and expectorant for everybody! Who's first?

monty924 said...

Hey Sydney... sorry you're feeling sickly.

This challenge looks familiar. UGH!

Sydney said...

even the guys are shivering -- except for Jeff.

Boy Russell has taken that leader thing to heart... why doesn't the other tribe still have a leader? And what happened to that Survivor rule that he who leads gets axed?

Lisanne said...

Did you see Sham's hands? Scary if Foa Foa was that much under water and they focused on Galu.

Sydney said...

Liz looking at Russell sideways.

Becky said...

Poor Liz. I was hoping she could hold on.

monty924 said...

Love him or hate him, Russell is a pitbull in the challenges. Liz hung on longer than I expected her to after seeing what Russell had to hold.

Let's see if it will be Liz or Ahshley tonight. Any guesses?

joy n said...

Liz tried, at least. No matter what Russell wants, Ashley has been pretty much useless today.

Margo said...

Hi everyone - Mom and I are home and I'm practicing typing on my new mini computer. It is so cute.''

monty924 said...

Sydney, do you mean Foa Foa for a leader? It is Mick. Not saying he's a great leader, but they were chosen at first glance by the tribes on the first night.

It hasn't hurt either of them yet. I hope it doesn't because Mick is my man, and Jackie's, in the pool. :)

monty924 said...

I say Ashley goes! I'm not buying the edit.

Becky said...

Syd, how is the weather there? We have a front cming in tonight. I hope you feel better.

Russell, get over yourself!

Becky said...

Kiss hiney, Ashley. Yeah, you can go tonight.

They are stupid if they get rid of Liz. She is almost as strong as the guys..... and a lot stronger than the other two girls.

Sydney said...

i am so glad LIz said she trusted everyone when asked. That really proves she has game. And Ashley didn't drink the whole shake and that is why they lost.

Liz held on to that rope to the point all the boys were impressed. Her staying is right. Sorry for whomever had Ashley in the pool

Becky said...

Glad that Ashley is gone instead of Liz. She (Ashley) never did anything to help the tribe.

I like Liz. She may be abrasive, but she gives 110%.

monty924 said...

Well, Russell is down to his "even dumber long haired blond" for his DAG alliance. His words, not mine.

I think it was a good vote to get rid of Ashley over Liz. Foa Foa needs the merge to come sooner than later or they will all be gone. Ugh!

Sydney said...

Becky, front coming in here too, supposed to be cooler. THat would be nice.

joy n said...

Sorry you're feeling worse, Syd. Have to tell you my cold is waning. Hope you're feeling better soon too.

Ashley was the right one to go, though I wish they'd chosen Russell.

monty924 said...

Wow, another medical evac for next week?

See everyone Sunday for TAR.

joy n said...

Jackie, hope you're on the mend too.

All voted for Ashley. Only she voted for Liz.

Anonymous said...

Well... who the hell gets hurt next week????? Does any one have a clue? I just can't wait, I have to know now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laurie said...

Missed the live blog and will probably wait until the weekend to see the recorded show. Nice to know whose fire get extinguished.

Sending well wishes to all who need it now. Wouldn't it be great if we were all well next week??

Dusty said...

I'm still watching Survivor, but I can't stop noticing that white Russell's facial hair. While he's at camp, he has a lot of growth, then when he's by himself talking about Liz, it looks like he shaved a few days before. It's not matching up. hmmmm.

My Russell (black), really disappointed me tonight.

Dusty said...

I also just have to say that Mick is really nice on the eyes. I live near him, I wonder if he would like a short, fat, widow, with two kids. :)

Anonymous said...

The other Russell is my guy in the pool and I am trying to root for him, but it isn't easy to do. Give him a decision and he will take the wrong one. I agree, though, we should have been shown footage of his tribe hiding under the pillows and things in the rain. My, wouldn't a tarp have felt good that night.

I am liking Natalie. She appears vacant, but somehow is keeping herself apart from the tribe politics. Even bad Russ has misread her, I think. It has been fun to watch her not answer a question and yet appear to have said something. 'The girl in the yellow dress', Jeff called her.

meb said...

Not to wish bad luck or harm to anyone, but if someone has to go out next week because of a medical emergency, I'm thinking mean Russell would be a good candidate. Then Becky could change her avatar again to non-roach.

Jeff really acted concerned, whatever happened. I'm with Anon... I want to know who it is and I want to know NOW!!!!!

Caroline said...

It seems like most people here disagree with this...but I totally think Russell made the right decision sending Shambo to Foa Foa. Just like he said, she lost a source of protein and therefore she shouldn't get to partake in the protein they now won. The only other person on their tribe that deserves to be punished is Russell himself and of course he wouldn't vote for himself. His behavior towards Dave over fire building was ridiculous and he showed himself to be immature and childish when he wouldn't shake Dave's hand after he apologized.

I think Galu should mutiny and make Erik or Dave their new leader. Both have good heads on their shoulders, are strong in comps and well-liked by the team.

Ashley was the only reasonable choice to send home last night. They need Liz too much for now. But Evil Russell better be careful how he treats her or she may be looking to jump tribes come a merge and organize the ousting of E. Russell. The boys on Galu were super impressed with her after the immunity challenge, they'd scoop her up in a heartbeat for an alliance.

Margo aka the Lifeguard

EileenM said...

Margo the Lifeguard....I like that! I'll bet Galu Russell is wishing he took the tarp now. He is now getting on my last nerve.

monty924 said...

Actually Russell S was in a no win situation last night with the pick to go to Foa Foa. Shambo deserved to eat though. She gulped down that sludge faster than most of them and didn't get to taste the reward. That sucked as far as I'm concerned.

Dalton Ross at EW thought Russell should have sent himself. Leaving Shambo with Foa Foa again just helped her to bond more with them and that cannot be good if she makes it to the merge.

All the spoiler sites have the same castaway going in the Medivac next week. I won't spoil it for anyone, but I won't miss him/her. I just hope it isn't serious.

ChicMc said...

Thanks, Margo, It was fun while she lasted. And I have to say that she lasted 3 weeks longer than I thought she would :)

I missed a little of the challenge, so 2 questions;
did people make retching sounds during the earlier rounds at the other competitors or just during Ashley's turn
and was that last mixture the only one that was mixed with just water?

It just seemed to me that even Jeff was trying to make Ashley fail to finish.

Ashley didn't seem to put up any fight at tribal council, so I think the decision was made at camp and she knew it was coming.
With the weather so bad the only difference in performance this week by any of them was that she was who didn't finish the beverage, hence she goes home.

I might root for Mick( along with so many of you), maybe Eric, or Dave, maybe Liz.
Hopefully, I can make a choice that lasts me through to the end.

Anonymous said...

ChiMac, I read that in an interview Ashley said or suggested (don't remember her wording) that others didn't finish their concoction either. Either she didn't say who, or I missed it if she did.

The other Russell isn't making good long term decisions..like maybe he only thinks in the present and not about the future (Shambo after the merge, fire making, tarp over pillows, as examples)

Those burned socks of Jaison's are really hurting him. Have any of them ever questioned where they went?
