Survivor: Worlds Apart - April 15 Blog Party


Survivor fans ready?

I hope you've all filed your taxes! Remember, the original sole Survivor, Richard Hatch, tried to not file with his million. You know what that got him -- time in the hoosegow! (I've had a yearning to use the word 'hoosegow' in correct context and now I've gone and done it. I'm livin' the wild life, y'see.)

As the show airs here, I'll update this post with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to "see" you there!

Before we get into the show, here are the latest blog pool standings from that Rockin' Lifeguard Laurie:

Carolyn - Jackie, TerryinTX
Dan - Brian, CherylinNC 
Hali - Zoetawny, monty924 
Jenn - Merrilee, Becky
Joe - SueGee, Chris 
Mike - meb, Nickelpeed 
Rodney - Margo 
Shirin - NanaintheNW 
Sierra - Jennasmom 
Tyler - Donna in Alabama, ORK Mommy 

Will - Rbennie 

Out 
WC - So
NC - Vince - Delee 
NC - Nina - Lynn1 
BC - Lindsey - Donna in FL, David 
Max - PDX Granny, Marlo
Joaquin - Laurie, Rochelle
Kelly - Petals, Ed in Ohio
Hali - Zoetawny, monty924

Let's get started!

Dang. Joe looks like Bozo the Clown under the night vision lights. A lot of focus on Shirin in the beginning of the show. 

Reward Challenge -- Two teams of five, race in water through obstacles to platform, grapple hook to collect five rings. The winners will be taken to the "Chocolate Cafe" chock full of candy. Mike, Tyler, Shirin, Dan and Sierra win. It had been a schoolyard pick for the teams.

Jenn has "nothing out here except despair." And they killed one of "her" chickens. As Rodney mocks Mike (who's on the chocolate binge), Joe picks up on it and hopes he can use Rodney against Mike ... if he (Joe) makes it that far.

Tree Mail warns them to stay on their toes for the next challenge. Jenn, who now wants to go home, told Joe that if she wins Immunity, she'll give it to him.

Immunity is now up for grabs. Balance on your toes with a block balanced on your head under a frame. The block falls, you're out. Carolyn, then Will, out. Shirin out, Rodney out. Dan gone. Sierra out. Joe is out. Mike out. Jenn out.

Tyler wins Immunity!

Jenn vows to us that she will do something to protect Joe and "screw up their game." I hope she does. 

Shirin thinks a numbers split will be made. She and Joe will vote for Jenn. Mike, of course, wants Shirin to vote for Joe to go. Jenn wants to go home. Shirin is worried that Joe is more of a threat in the game. Joe decides to make a fake idol. He makes a pretty good one. He tells Mike (of all people) that he will give him the idol after tribal if he flips his vote. Mike thinks he just might have a different idol.

At Tribal, Mike asks Jeff to verify his idol. Jeff says only after it's used. Everyone is confused. Jenn says she wants to go home, but won't quit to do so.

Mike plays the real idol! He does it for Will.

Jenn, Joe, Jenn, Joe, Dan, Jenn, Joe, Jenn, Joe, Joe.

Sigh. Joe is now the second member of the jury.

Yumm, Schlotzsky's. I miss them, they are good. They closed down the only one that was near me. Now I need to go online and find if there is another one in the area. lol

Cheryl in NC said...

Becky said...

Hey, Jackie, Cheryl, Lynn, PETALS, Petals, I put you in all caps because I was asking about you the other night.

Joe in NY said...

Hi folks

Becky said...

Jen is my pool person. Not a favorite of mine. I like Joe and Mike.

Cheryl in NC said...

Hi Joe

Becky said...

Hey, Joe.

Joe in NY said...

I won't be sorry to see Dan go. He acts so superior but he is not good in challenges and seems to be...er...a little unevolved.

Petals said...

darn it, no chocolate for sexy Joe. :(

Joe in NY said...

Probst said this was one of the best casts ever. I'm just not quite seeing it. I mean, it's not the worst. There are people playing, and there are people worth cheering for. But there is still a lot of dead wood.

SueGee said...

I have a pot of spaghetti cooking in the kitchen so I'm here in the dining room jumping up and down checking on things...hot sour dough bread coming up!!

SueGee on the LeftCoast

Cheryl in NC said...

agreed joe on dan..hes my pool pick but i am so over that mouth of his...and rodney too

Petals said...

BECKY ! ! Hey sweetie!
I've been going to bed around 6pm lately, I had pneumonia that I could NOT shake, and exhaustion permeated all my pores. But I am better now!
{{Becky}}
I'm glad to be BACK ! !
(plus, a little bird named Monty reminded me that this was an awesome season that I was missing)

Petals said...

HI JOE !!

How are your kids?

Petals said...

LOL Cheryl, re Joe *wink*

Joe in NY said...

Does Jenn have a little gut? I swear she didn't have one before. Could she be losing weight in odd places or something?

Petals said...

Hey Sue! You got it, I'll take VERY good care of Joe

Joe in NY said...

Hi Petals,

The kids are okay. Keira seems to have a neck strain or something. Hoping it isn't more than that. Andi is a beast and beats us both up.

How are things in the Midwest?
How are the husband and kids?

Cheryl in NC said...

wow...rodney was a little funny there for a second...thats a first..

SueGee said...

Thanks Petals, he does remind me a tiny bit of one past Survivor (a favorite of yours LOL)

SueGee on the LeftCoast

Oh, and my husband has be fighting a pneumonia bug. He feels much better but he still needs to see the Dr again tomorrow

~~Silk said...

Hi.

Cheryl in NC said...

another good challenge for joe..

Cheryl in NC said...

yikes joe

Joe in NY said...

Wow, look at Dan hanging in there. LOL

Petals said...

MMmmm, Sue - I was craving spaghetti, thanks!

Cheryl in NC said...

come on jenn

Becky said...

Come on Mike!

Becky said...

Darn!!!

Petals said...

Joe - things are fine here, kids are great, Gary had his hip replaced in on March 9, it was a great success.

Becky said...

Petals, be careful. Once you have pneumonia you are more likely to get it again.

Cheryl in NC said...

damn joe might be a goner

Joe in NY said...

Wow, we've still got almost half of the show left. Must be an exciting negotiation leading into tribal.

Cheryl in NC said...

im guessing so Joe...im guessing the powers that be probably want to keep your namesake around a couple more weeks...

Petals said...

Sue - yes, Monty did point-out that Joe had a resemblance to my Survivor-husband Ozzy! whoohooo
That pneumonia is pretty severe. My vocal chords were damaged, I am very hoarse.

Joe in NY said...

Her math is a little crazy. Once they vote it off, they could vote off Joe 6 to 1. What kind of new math was that?

SueGee said...

I had a bout of pneumonia in 2003 and spent a week in the hospital. No occurrence (yet).

Cheryl in NC said...

why are the idiots wanting to split the vote

Petals said...

Good idea, Joe! C'MON!

David said...

You are right Becky, once you have had it it is easy to get again. I had it in my 20's and then every year again for 5 years after that. Then skipped a couple years and has been spaced out farther since then. But I am still susceptible to it so have to be careful about getting colds.

Becky said...

Oh, Mike poo on you!

Petals said...

Damn - Joe is a GREAT pseudo-Ozzy

Cheryl in NC said...

so was that mikes idol or joes idol

Cheryl in NC said...

or joes fake idil should i say...lol

Petals said...

Yikes - this is tense!

lynn1 said...

That really sucks

Cheryl in NC said...

well that just sucks

Becky said...

Mike, I don't love you any more even if you are from TX. The target on your back just got bigger.

Petals said...

NOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo

lynn1 said...

I guess we can count on a loser personality winning this year

Becky said...

Jackie, thank you for hosting us. I hope you are feeling much better.

Cheryl in NC said...

well it almost worked......gn all and thanks for letting us hangout as always Jackie!!

Jackie S. said...

Thanks for coming by, everyone!

David said...

Well, that's too bad. They have been focused on getting him out for a while now. Now they will have to start looking at who to target next and I know who I want targeted.

Thanks Jackie =)

Everyone have a good evening.

lynn1 said...

Thanks Jackie. Goodnight everyone

Nickelpeed said...

Crap, Joe is out??? Darn it. They should have voted Jenn. She wanted to go.

I don't dislike Mike and crew because they want to win, too; but dang it, why Joe?

I do agree if they keep Joe, he will be a huge competetor. I just hated to see him go.

I have Mike as my pool pick, but he's not my favorite. I do like him MUCH better than Rodney or Dan, though.

Nickelpeed said...

Petal, I am SO happy to see you. I've been working, so missed this week. I'll also miss TAR. But, I will be here next week.

Petals, I am so glad you are feeling better. So sorry about the Pneumonia. Such a nasty thing. Glad you are back.
