The show will be starting in about five minutes here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this post with major news while sharing some opinions on what I see both here and in comments. Of course, the comments area is where the real party is! Everyone is welcome to join in, the water's fine! Oh. And bring snacks. Snacks are always good.
Could it be the end of Evil Russell?
Russell lost the duel and is crying! Uh-oh, he's going to play vicariously through Phillip.
Rob found the hidden immunity idol in his camp.
Zapatara won reward and immunity.
They voted out Kristina, the person I have in the pool. Hmmm ... who to cheer on now?
I have garlic bread sticks with cheese in the oven and yummy marinara for dipping. Beers over at the bar...
ReplyDeleteI'm diving in!! Hi Jackie!
Yay, first here!
ReplyDeleteWOOHOO! *splash* Hey Monty
ReplyDeleteHey Petals... can't wait to see our boy Russell kick some Redemption booty tonight!
ReplyDeleteAwesome Monty ~ I brought mini cheesecakes!
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else see the footage of Phillip driving around Beverly Hills in a new BMW, dropping clues that he had won?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I cant imagine what challenge they could give them that Russell wouldnt dominate. He may be short, but he is all muscle.
ReplyDeleteYou mean secret agent man might win this? Heaven help us... sorry to Phillip's pool peeps!
ReplyDeleteI love you, ROB!
ReplyDeleteHe told the paps to "check our his website"
ReplyDeleteHi Petals and Monty and Jackie!
ReplyDeleteI brought really good guacamole and fresh chips. Enjoy!
I can't wait to see the Island Duel tonight. It will be Epic!
Time to leave work so I'll see you all later!!
WHY do these idiots TELL everybody they have an idol?
ReplyDeleteWell, there you go Petals, Laurie popped in and out and its just you, me and Jackie! More for us, LOL!
ReplyDeleteIt isnt looking good for Russell's future, Monty. Dangit.
ReplyDeletedrink!
ReplyDeleteHi Joyn.... uh oh... Phillip just said the magic words. Drink up!!
ReplyDeleteHey, every one. I brought the makings for tacos.
ReplyDeleteAre we chugging for SAM? He said the words.
Boy, Ralph IS hairy!
Phillip is weird, but he's more entertaining for me to watch than Coach was.
ReplyDeleteCome on Russell... no offense Matt!
ReplyDeleteCome on Matt, show the troll how you roll!
ReplyDeleteBecky, he said SAM once.
ReplyDeleteauughhhhhh.....
ReplyDeleteRalph is a dumbass BEAST...
ReplyDeleteNO!!!!!!
ReplyDelete:(:(:(:(... Bye to the greatest Survivor to have never won the game!
ReplyDeleteWTG, Matt! Sorry all you Russell fans! I just can't stand the man.
ReplyDeleteYES!!! The troll is goners!!! YES! YES!! YES!!
ReplyDeleteOMG. Dont cry. No.
ReplyDeleteRussell is crying! The giant just fell!
ReplyDeleteWell, Monty. Now we can cheer for sexy Rob.
ReplyDeleteYep, Ralph is a dumbass!
ReplyDeleteRussell is so jealous of Rob.
ReplyDeleteclose enough, DRINK!
ReplyDeleteI think that deserves a 'drink'!
ReplyDeleteMMmm...food is good. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteRalph is not carrying a full load -- and he is my pool person.
ReplyDeletePhillip, please stop blowing all that hot air.
ReplyDeleteRob will be thrilled to hear the news!
Its okay, Becky. We're all wrong every now and then! jk ;)
ReplyDeleteBecky, Ralph is a tool, yes. But he is still there.
ReplyDeleteThe preview said someone was going to cry at the duel. Never thought it would be Russell. What a wonderful surprise.
ReplyDeleteNow I hope Joe's wish from last week comes true. I hope 'tribe Rob' goes on a winning streak! btw, where is Joe?
ReplyDeleteHe played the Deuce!
ReplyDeleteGo Rob!
ReplyDeleteJoe said it'd be harder for him to blog with his work sched & his new puppy.
ReplyDelete...or he is lurking, LOL
ReplyDeleteDing, ding, ding.... you go, Rob!!
ReplyDeleteIs Intel close enough?
ReplyDeleteLOL Rob!
ReplyDeleteMonty, yes! Any reference to him being 007 counts.
ReplyDeleteI am soooo ready for the James Bond wannabe to go home!
ReplyDeleteI think we all are, Joyn. Maybe we'll see his torch snuffed tonight!
ReplyDeleteJoyn - There was footage of 007 in Beverly Hills in a new BMW, he was hinting that he won the game and told the reporters to check out his website.
ReplyDeleteJoy, you aren't the only one! So what do all of you think of RI so far?
ReplyDeleteBTW (OT), how much is gasoline in your area?
Oh Julie, I hope it does come back to bite you.
ReplyDeleteHi everyone. I just got in from snow-blowing, yet again. Is Russell really gone? Was there massive cheering among both teams?
ReplyDelete$3.59, Becky... I cry every time I fill up!
ReplyDelete(guess Survivor has a new sponsor?)
ReplyDelete$3.35 in KCMO
ReplyDeleteBecky, 3.59 here too, up 10 cents a gallon since I filled up Monday.
ReplyDeleteI like Grant!
ReplyDeleteNice challenge! Something new for once...
ReplyDeleteWell, Phillip it was nice knowing ya... now what will we drink to? LOL
ReplyDeleteBecky, your boy came thru. But he looks like an extra from "Deliverance", LOL.
ReplyDeleteDARN!!!! It's a darn good reward! I hope Phillip is g-o-n-e!
ReplyDeleteLMAO, Petals! My sweetest said the same thing last week. :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully, this vote will be 4-3 for Phillip to go.
ReplyDeletePetals, I agree about Ralphie looking like an extra on that movie!
ReplyDeleteGasoline is $3.39 here -- and we have five refineries here!
Ralph = Deliverance!
ReplyDeleteGas is $3.59 here
ReplyDelete$3.69 up here. It's gone up 30 cents in the last ten days.
ReplyDeletePhillip really thinks he is a super agent.
Wasn't sure I was going to like Redemption I. After today, I LOVE IT!
Maybe our drinking buddy will hang in there until next week. Phillip might have a chance, lol!
ReplyDeleteOh no. The spoilers may have been correct & Phillip wins?
ReplyDeleteJACKIE: "Phillip is weird, but he's more entertaining for me to watch than Coach was."
ReplyDeleteYou just like watching him parade around in his "pink" baggy bvd's!!! Bawahaha
Kiddin!
When does Matt get to come back? I am not understanding this exile.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we might have another week of drinking games. Oh, I hope not!
ReplyDeleteBut I do know that we will have to endure SAM running off at the mouth at TC.
Grant is my pool boy and he looks hotter every week.
ReplyDeleteHope Phillip doesn't screw this up.
Petals, I do not know but if I had to guess I would say at the merge.
ReplyDeleteMatt has to fight off every competitor until he loses or until Survivor brings him back to the game at some point.
ReplyDeleteI had my drink ready during 007's TC rant, but he was a medal-winning Army janitor, not SAM.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm SAM lasts another week!
ReplyDeleteOh no! This has not been a satisfying episode.
ReplyDeleteOur drinking buddy survived. Whew...
ReplyDeleteI hate that Matt is out there all alone & cute & Christian. I didnt know they left him out there all that time.
ReplyDeleteI think we need to DRINK a toast to Phillip for remaining to entertain us.
ReplyDeleteThis was probably a smart move. Kristina was a smarter player. But we're stuck with the blowhard for another week. Yuck!!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Petals! Cheers to the group! :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I have to go and let DH have the computer. e-See you on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteGood episode. Seeing Russell cry and leave was worth every minute.
ReplyDeleteKick her butt, Matt!
Off to finish up the laundry and packing. Vacay coming up next week, woohoo! See you all next week.
ReplyDeleteGas Fresno, CA $3.98!!!! Ouch
ReplyDeleteAh, nice to see that Russell was able to continue is blowhard ways all the way to the end.
ReplyDeleteBuh-bye and please mean it when you say you won't be back. Really.
I actually cheered like someone threw a 'Hail Mary' pass and won the game when Matt beat Russell on redemption island. That was sweet. Although I hated to see him cry, I, too, Laurie hope he means it when he says it's his last time.
ReplyDeleteI hope Matt can keep it up out there, but it's got to be tough and lonely out there with only camera people who won't talk to you. He was also very kind and humble with Russell.
If Phillip makes it to the end, his pink undies most definitely will not. It appears he has board shorts though, why doesn't he just wear them?
ML
and $3.90 here!
i missed the show tonight but am SO GLAD to read in your blog russell is g-o-n-e!!! -jeannemarie
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm going to miss Russell! But it was hard to not cheer for Matt. I'll be rooting for Boston Rob now. At least he's a better-looking villain! I so enjoy watching the villains at work. I'm really liking Stephanie & Krista. Looks like they may be fun next week.
ReplyDeleteI think Ralph is an idiot. (Sorry, Becky!)
Have a good week, Survivor fans!
Caraleigh
I'll miss Russell, too. (Sob, sob.) I get a kick out of the little troll. He makes the show fun for me.
ReplyDeleteI have Krista &, yeah, the previews look like she & Steph might be worth watching next week.
I don't care for Ralph, either. But Steve is the one that I REALLY don't like. Just something about him.
Caraleigh, I stated that he doesn't have a full load. Will also say that the elevator doesn't appear to go to the top floor. Ralph is exactly why a lot of people think any male from the south is a Bubba.
ReplyDelete***Pool Update***
ReplyDeleteDing dong the warlock is dead. The wicked ole warlock is dead!!
Oh poor lil Russell is crying. It sure does bite when your team kicks you out and you can't win a game of domino's :(
