Survivor Tocantins - "You're Going to Want That Tooth"

jackie's tv blog, survivor

The show is starting! While my full review will be up later over on TV Squad, this post will be updated with major events. Everyone is welcome to join in on the fun in the comments area!

Jalapao won reward -- cafe, coffee, pastries, restrooms with product placement -- they chose Brendan for Exile Island. He chose Stephen to go from the winning tribe. Tyson is suspicious.

Surprise, surprise ... letters from home were at the cafe.

Timbira wins immunity. JT, who did the best for Jalapao, is really ticked off. He also broke his tooth.

Spencer was voted out.

  4. oooh, why do I feel this won't last? I want it to, asit i s the first in all the seasons. Something tells me Sierra is a risk since no one spoke to her about it before Taj did.

    ReplyDelete
  5. She reminds me of Ceiri or last season or before. I don't know how to spell her name.

  6. Hey Jackie and Sydney. Did Taj just make a major boo-boo by giving Stephen the idol?

    ReplyDelete
  7. hi everyone. i'm going to try to hang out a bit tonight to "re-acquaint myself". i am going to faithfully appear for the DWTS, since margo so graciously added me to the pool.

    anyhow...is everyone aware that jeff blogs each episode? i had no clue until i was reading something last week. here's the link to last week's show.

    i just love jeff. there's also word that he might be giving it up, but maybe that's just rumor.

  8. Jeff Probst interview last week was bout the record number of blindsides this season. Ohhhhhh no watch out Taj, better yet Brendan!!! He also said that even though this season is more physical, the winner will surprise everyone, because they deserved to be in the top 3 to begin with!!! Ohhhh who could that be?

  9. Monty said Did Taj just make a major boo-boo by giving Stephen the idol?

    -- we think she did!

  10. I smell blindside #2 coming tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Don't get TOO confident. Don't these people know THAT always kicks you in the ass eventually??

    yeah coach, only a matter of time for you too arse!

    ReplyDelete
  12. here am rooting for the red team, but I don't like it when one team always wins.... it makes the show a drag to watch long term.

    last two on the beam

    ReplyDelete
  13. friggin coach, why isn't he participating, really. all that complaining he does about his team not winning and not experienced being "out there" like him...he sickens me. he should be on the spinner, not the spinnie...he needs to prove himself.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Lucygrace -- TOTALLY!!!

    ReplyDelete
  15. what odes that mean, classy move? Well, mr. blue tee is onto them...

    ReplyDelete
  16. Yes, a blindside is looking more likely than not tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Sorry I am late. Hope there are drinks left. I wasn't going to watch tonight. Planned on taking some good "drugs" and hitting the bed. I had an implant inserted today. My gum is cut almost to the very back because the dentist found periodontal disease and had to scrape the bone to remove it. To say I am in pain is like saying snow is cold.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Wow, this seems a little early to be getting a letter from home. Taj is getting the boot edit tonight. Yikes!

    ReplyDelete
  19. kind of a jackass????

    ReplyDelete
  20. Becky - Glad to see you. I want to say we'll make you feel better , but I'm not sure we can do better than drugs!

    OUCH. That sounds horrible!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Becky go lie down and get some rest. Just the word dentist freaked me out!! Is snow really cold?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Donna, Taj is kind of playing like Cerie-- she's just a little less arrogant about it?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Becky after my c-section (and 4 1/2 months of hospital bedrest) the doctors kept telling its okay to take something stronger than what I was already taking Tyenol 500mg, I told them no thanks I was leaving this place asap. Well why didn't they tell me Heprin thins the blood so, that I had no energy when I got home. Thank goodness those kids took a while to come home.

    Take what ever they gave you Becky, you can catch up next week, review tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Too bad being gay has any other effect than say, hair or eye color...

    ReplyDelete
  25. Where did I read that Todd (winner) is dating Brendan... or now I'm thinking it might be Spencer???

    ReplyDelete
  26. ouch becky! hope you have enough "good drugs" to get ya through it. i have some very necessary dental work that needs to be done that i keep putting off.

    ReplyDelete
  27. sorry, hit send too soon..wanted to say hope you feel better soon becky.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Not a smart move to go directly to Taj for that hung coming back from Exile Island.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Agreed Sydney but I loved Ciere.

    Becky, go lie down ... catch up with us tomorrow!

    ReplyDelete
  30. will that tooth go on ebay?

    ReplyDelete
  31. OMG.. first Becky and now JT. I'm hurting for both of you.

    ReplyDelete
  32. why was Spencer just standing around?

    ReplyDelete
  33. you know what i would like to see? a survivor (or BB) show with all game/reality show hosts. don't you think that would be fun?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Monty -- I was thinking that too about was it SPencer he's dating? Though I can't picture Todd -- out of sight, out of mind.

    Donna -- I liked Cerie too - a lot, but then toward the end it got to be a little too bwahaha much for me....

    ReplyDelete
  35. Lucy Grace, if they ever did one I'd watch it. :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. whaaa? Where did this come from Taj?

    ReplyDelete
  37. God, once in awhile, my body is inhabited by someone else... could it be hormones?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Taj is NOT helping herself right now. UGH!

    ReplyDelete
  39. did i miss something, what is taj so pissed off about?

    and no, she does not have the idol, the dude has it.

    ReplyDelete
  40. We must have missed something that led to that outburst.

    He's better served in the MOMENT by her going home maybe but not in the long run

    ReplyDelete
  41. syd--Todd was the little guy who had an alliance with Amanda(Ozzie's girlfriend). He was a flight attendant and I think in the F4.

    And yes, we did hear from Joyn that Todd and Stephen... or Spencer are dating. I hate getting old and senile!

    ReplyDelete
  42. girl always looks like she has shimmery, pretty lipstick on.

    How?

    ReplyDelete
  43. spencer looks MASSIVELY guilty!

    ReplyDelete
  44. if you google todd and spencer dating, the first 12 sites come up and confirm it.

    ReplyDelete
  45. wait -- the guysTaj is in an alliance with looks guilty. He must not be Spencer

    OOh,m Taj is going home right?

    ReplyDelete
  46. Boy did she ever dodge a bullet.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Oh no.. Strike that, Yay. I figured they'd put all Spencers up first and suddenly the rest of the votes would be for Taj.

    If she was voted off now, the show would take a turn I don't want yet. I want to see if this alliance can make it.

    So they edited last week's previews and this whole show to make it look like the alliance would be bust before it really began!

    ReplyDelete
  48. wow, that was a very quick hour.

    a little bit of trivia for you....
    jeff retains one particular item as a souvenier from every season, what it is?

    ReplyDelete
  49. lol -- who is this jackass!!!

    well, Taj avoided a bullet!

    ReplyDelete
  50. HA... the line of the night. "Who is this Jackass", LOL. Can't wait til next week now. :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Sydney, stop reading my mind, LOL. :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. it was a pleasure watching with you all tonight. enjoyed the "company".

    see you again soon!

    ReplyDelete
  53. monty, no show next week. previews said "in two weeks"

    ReplyDelete
  54. You're right Anon. My bad. Now I'm off to rewatch this so I can catch everything I missed. Geez! See everyone Sunday for either TAR or CA. Niters!

    ReplyDelete
  55. Oh thank you Sydney...I have been saying that myself all along! Jalapeno, ole!
    Lucy Grace - I think it is the fire snuffers he uses at tribal?

    I cant wait to watch tonight, you guys have me all stirred up about whats going on....I dont want Taj out at all!!!

    ReplyDelete
  56. Next week is the NCAA tournament, so no new show.

    I was offended by Spencer assuming that JT would automatically vote him off if he knew Spencer was gay. Prejudging people because they are gay--wrong. Prejudging someone from the South--okay? Why is being anti-Southerner an acceptable discrimination?! I am from Nashville, so I have to represent all open-minded Southerners (with or without teeth)!

    Also, it was good to see Taj not have that dress knotted around her waist and dangling in a phallic manner. I have to be honest and tell you that a few times her "knots" have made me do double takes!

    See you all in two weeks!

    ReplyDelete
  57. Just an FYI, the show is not on next week and it is on Wednesday in two weeks, not Thursday. HTH

    ReplyDelete
  58. You mean it isn't the Jalapeno tribe? huh!

    Thanks for the warning there's tooth breakage in this episode. I'll look away if I can!

    Only 20 minutes to wait here in California.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I love JT. Minus 1/2 a tooth & all..

    ReplyDelete
  60. Ms Laurie! I just watched & the tooth isn't gross or anything. It's not "look-away" worthy. hehe...Speaking of which: How are YOUR teeth, Ms Smiles?

    ReplyDelete
  61. Lucy2, I am a Southerner too and agree. I love JT, he reminds me of my older brother.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Watched...but didn't get to comment.

    OFF TOPIC: I also watched Damages (Glenn Close) and previews said there were only The Last Three Episodes left. Does anyone know if they meant for the season or is it finished. From the previews, it appears it could be over. ??? Anyone ???

    ReplyDelete
  63. Why was Probst so adamant about finding the tooth fragment and keeping it? It was JT's tooth and he's the one who threw it away. When I've broken teeth and taken the piece to the dentist, they don't use it.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Whew, I was a little worried for Taj last night. I really hope this cross tribal alliance lasts at least until the merge. I'm sure this is what the PTB (powers that be) wanted to happen when they came up with sending one from each tribe to Exile Island. In a perfect world Timbira will lose next week and send worthless Coach home. I thought that edit with the rain last night was priceless.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Poor Spencer...he's so "Duhm". And poor dla & KarenJC, they've been voted out with Spencer. Until next week...

    Candace Smith - PDX Granny & Sizzie
    Carolina Eastwood - Laurie & Donna in AL

  66. Anon - All they said at first was "he lost a tooth". If it's the whole tooth, a dentist can re-implant it. If it's a partial they just cap it. Jeff wanted to find it because he though it was the whole tooth.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Ork is correct: JT's tooth, if partial, is just a souvenir now. Depending on the impact, he may need RCT later, but the rooth may be repaired with a 4-5 surface composite, crown, or an implant.

    In any case, I would happily hold JT's hand during any of this treatment. heheh

    ReplyDelete
  68. Hi all -

    I just read Jeff P blog over on ew.com and he has the tooth. He said he is going to bring it to the live finale and give it to JT is he changed his mind and wants it. Also said next week is BBall and the following week is Wed for a recap show and a new episode on APRIL 2. Well I guess I can catch up on all my tivo'd stuff.
    You guys should read his blog it is often very funny.
    I hope JT doesn't become a medical emergency because of the tooth thingy. Apparently someone does.
    Maybe Coach's head gets so big it explodes. :)

  69. To the two Lucys and Donna.... I am from the South too and I resent it when people think we are prejudice, hicks with no taste except in our mouth. Just because we talk slow does not mean we ARE slow. We are not all dueling banjo material. Okay, back to my wheel-less car that is jacked up on boxes.

    Thank you to all who sent good thoughts. LucyGrace, welcome to the blog.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Jeff gave the tooth back to JT at the very end of the challenge, didn't he?
