Survivor Samoa: 11/05 Show 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.

Before we get started, I want to thank all the gals from the blog who went to Las Vegas for the photos and postcards. It looked like you all had a ball!

The merge went down with a feast.

Two will win immunity. Women play against women, men against men. One woman, one man safe from tribal council. John won for the men. Laura wins for the women ... thus ruining Russell's plan.

Russell played his idol but got no votes. Erik should have played his idol. 2 votes for Jaison, the rest for Erik (it seems). Heh. Bye-bye, Erik.

Helloooo!

Lisanne said...

Yay! Actualy home on a Thursday night.

The promos for tonight have me worried. Please Kelly do not become the next "dumb blond"! Although she has been so invisible, I can't tell if she is smart of not. :(

Jackie S. said...

Is Russell actually going to do right with his four?

joy n said...

I think Russell has an extra organ in his body called a plotter. He never stops.

monty924 said...

Yay, the merge is here. I saw an extended preview today, and I can honestly say that Erik is a jerk. Let's just say that Jaison, Mick and Natalie aren't impressed with him.

GO MICK!

monty924 said...

I think he is/or will Jackie. His schemes will be all about Galu from here on out. Just a hunch!

Lisanne said...

wow, look at all those trees with green leaves. So much prettier than the bare trees and the people burning leaves I saw today on my drive thru rural IN.

Sad that trees are a bit more exciting than the merge right now.

monty924 said...

What in the world is he doing? You don't show the idol to EVERYONE! Ugh!

joy n said...

Don't these people talk to each other? Is there anyone that Russell hasn't told about his idol? I really hope this comes back to bite him HARD in the butt!

Becky said...

Russell is a schemer. All of my pool picks are gone except for Russell. I still can't bring myself to pull for him to win.

monty924 said...

There's the first commercial for Ponderosa. The cast off tonight must be going to the jury. Hmm...

Lisanne said...

I would hate for you to lose all your pool picks Becky, but I am so hoping for a Russell blindside tonight.

monty924 said...

My Mom is right there with you Becky. She hates Russell. :)

joy n said...

When the time comes, I'll bet that Russell will turn on his tribe, too. That man will do whatever he needs to do to win this. Russell's number one is Russell. Period.

Lisanne said...

Has Shambo never watched the show? Do not vote off one of your own and lose your numbers!! Thats like Survivor 101.

monty924 said...

Cool II necklace. Tee-ball for immunity? Wow, one female and one male both get immunity. I like that!

monty924 said...

Mick, that was a wussy hit there.

joy n said...

Well, so much for Russ and Shambo's plans for Laura.

joy n said...

Russell's trying to whittle down Galu's numbers and Shambo wanted Laura out for personal reasons. Russell, too, I guess. Anyone who doesn't bow to him, he considers disrespectful and hones in on them. Can't wait to see who they zero in on next.

monty924 said...

Erik = jerk

Becky said...

They are fools to not blindside Russell.

monty924 said...

Yay Jaison. Don't trust Erik.

Sydney said...

I agree Becky. I just can't tell anymore who is on to him and who is falling for Russell's thing

joy n said...

This sounds like the making of a big mess at tribal council tonight.

joy n said...

This ought to be interesting.

Sydney said...

I haven't seen a few shows, didn't realize Erik has an idol. husband just said, "doesn't work unless you use it..."

Becky said...

WOW! Is Eric the one with the other II.

Becky said...

WOW! Is Eric the one with the other II.

monty924 said...

Vote Erik's BEHIND out of there. Come on Foa Foa, you can do it!

Sydney said...

Laura can't hide that immunity smile of hers

Sydney said...

HUsband thinks Eric just sealed his fate with that talk... I am surprised that Russell said aloud he'll talk to anyone about anything to stay in this game.

Sydney said...

Eric had it and didn't use it.... and he's going AND they got Russell to flush his out.

Sydney said...

first member of the jury tho

monty924 said...

Another wasted idol. Bye-bye Erik!

Becky said...

Russell was smart to play the idol. Did Eric get voted out with an II in his pocket?

Lisanne said...

Almost as good as a Russell blindside.

The question is did Erik hide his at camp and does anyone know where to find it?

joy n said...

Erik NEVER saw that coming!

joy n said...

Russell and Laura better hide those gloating smiles.

joy n said...

PLEASE DO get Russell out of there next week.

Dusty said...

How sad is it that I don't even know who Erik is.

I haven't even watched last week epi, so I better get watching.

monty924 said...

Looks like Russell's in trouble next week. I'm glad Erik went home. He was so condescending to the Foa Foa tribe. I couldn't stand him ever since he made the comments to them at the joint tribal council.

joy n said...

Looks by the votes that Shambo was left out of the loop again. Only she and Erik voted for Jaison.

Sydney said...

GOod to have you lisanne!

And Dusty, I am behind too. I missed the big show, where the Good Russell passed out several times. Laurie gave me a link to it though.... just have no time this week! But the week is almost over!

Laurie said...

Dusty, I have to go look who Eric is, too. I'll be watching the show over the weekend.

Sorry to miss the party tonight!

meb said...

joyn, I think they told her about voting for Erik, but she wouldn't do it.

I also believe that Erik sealed his fate with all that bullcrap at Tribal Council... didn't he realize that he was putting down everyone but himself. His own tribe were doing Jackie's @@.

I did have to do an amazed laugh every time Russell spoke when away from the tribe. He is so delusional it's pathetic the way he thinks everything is going his way. Showing that idol to everyone was stupid. They all knew he had it, so they forced him to use it.

I was surprised that Jeff didn't ask if anyone wanted to use it before he read the votes. I know there had been no mention of it previously, but how would you know when you could use it, other than having seen the show before.

After it was shown, shouldn't he have asked if anyone else had an idol they wanted to use. Glad he didn't cause it may have prompted Erik to use his, but just sayin'.

Now Russell is in trouble. He has only his wit to get him through from now on, and that ain't saying much!

Glad you liked the pix and postcards Jackie...some were very artistic..mine wasn't one of them. LOL

Lisanane... Kelly is so invisible I don't think we have to worry about her at all. So wait, Russell will probably realize she's there this week.

joyn...forgot to fix picture on my blog last night. I'll do it over the weekend. Had 266 emails when I got home... do we know the word overwhelmed??? Love it though!

joy n said...

Meb, I watched again today, and you're right, they did tell her but... I don't think she really believed they would do it. When Jeff read the 5th vote for Erik, she turned to her right and looked at Erik as if she were as surprised as he. As Jeff read the other two votes, she had a questioning look on her face. That makes me think that she hadn't taken it seriously when they told her. And, apparently, no one else bothered to convince her that they were serious. Ten people "in the loop" knew it was "for sure". She didn't seem to.

I'll check out your pix over the weekend. Thanks, Meb

joy n said...

I fogot. That vote for Erik might hurt her. If the others think she did it for a jury vote, that won't go over very well. Or it may get the others to think that she is a wildcard vote and they won't trust her to vote on who they want her to. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

joy n said...

Erik isn't much different alone at Ponderosa. He is PO'd bigtime at Galu.
