But first … Lifeguard Laurie has updated the blog pool, probably grateful they didn't drop buffs and switch around two weeks in a row. Is your castaway still in it to win it?
Lairo
Dean Kowalski -- CherryPie, Merrilee
Karishma Patel -- Ed in Ohio, SueGee
Jack Nichting -- David, jennifer
Jamal Shipman -- Donna in Alabama, Petals
Janet Carbin -- Donna NY, Sharon C
Kellee Kim -- Glenn Allen, Indiana Jane
Noura Salman -- Jennasmom
Vokai
Aaron Meredith -- Auntie Leigh
Elaine Stott -- Cheryl in NC
Elizabeth Beisel -- CherylNY, monty 924
Missy Byrd -- Janice, TS14Fan
Dan Spilo -- Bizaro22, marthalight
Lauren Beck -- Jackie, Sharon N
Tommy Sheehan -- Karen in CA, Terry is a Texan
Survivor fans ready?
Once again we're starting without the opening sequence. Elaine kept her original four together but hurt feelings abound. But her four now outnumber the other original tribe members.
Over on Lairo Jamal has trouble making fire and manages to annoy one of the women who actually can and does make fire. Uh-oh. Now he's ticked off yet another woman, this time over food portions. He's made himself a target.
Ohhh … Elaine had picked Janet to go to the Island of the Idols. She's not happy because it seems to put a target on those who go there. A boat comes for her and we go through the fan gawking over Rob and Sandra. Rob advises her to think two or three steps ahead. Today's lesson is calculated risk.
She can win a safety without power advantage good to the final seven. If she wins it, she would leave TC and come back after the vote. She declines, thinking ahead that she would be the target the next week and it's best not to go for it. Both Sandra and Rob are pleased she turned it down -- say it speaks for her gameplay and thinking ahead. Sandra is sure a woman will win this season.
She returns to camp, lies about the island, creates a story similar to one told before and said she declined to play as there would be a consequence to winning. Those who haven't gone to the Island seem to realize something is up.
On Vokai, they're eying the chickens without considering eggs. @@
They also have a lot of distrust -- Lauren and Tommy want Dan out. But others see how tight Lauren and Tommy are and want to target Tommy.
Immunity Challenge time! Race to shoot coconuts in basket, heavy enough puzzle pieces drop, very large puzzle. No one sits out because the tribes are even again.
VOKAI wins Immunity by seconds.
Kellee seems like she's considering using her idol for someone else. It expires soon and she doesn't seem to think she's a target. Uh-oh. I'm not too keen on that line of thinking.
Dean (my local Westfield NJ dude) seems to be the target … at least for now. The guys are lying to him, saying the target is Noura, Kellee happens to like Dean and wants to get him to vote out Jamal or Jack.
She goes to Dean, tells him the people are lying to him and he's the target. She offers the idol. Hmm.
To Tribal very early -- 8:44pm, should be good.
Original tribal lines talk. Indifferent is the opposite of hate. Is Dean trying to get people to target others? Noura speaks … too much as usual. Jamal is now worried about an all girls alliance thanks to Noura. Four women, three men on the tribe. Kellee balks at the thought. Noura starts speaking of the women's movement and how Survivor is a microcosm of society. Janet thinks that it's not respectful to assume there's a women's alliance. Now Jamal has stopped freaking out that he is going to be targeted and we're getting yet another world lesson here. Add it to last week's race relations talk and we have an educational show. Finally they vote.
Dean plays the idol. Jamal plays his idol for Noura.
The tally:
Dean, Dean, Dean, Dean, Dean, Jack. Jack
Seventh out and first jury member -- Jack
The merge is on next week.

Hi folks
Greetings, Joe and the rest who come by
Hi everyone. Hi Jackie and Vincent. Thank you for hosting us.
I'll be watching from CBS Access. My local CBS is out. It's been off the air since 2:00 a.m. I'm very irritated. I've always DVDed or VCRed every Survivor and rewatched them at the season's end. Now, I'm going to miss one. It's irritating. I'm glad I can watch it on line, though, I guess.
*~*~*~*~ SPLASH ~*~*~*~
Hey Jackie, Vincent & Everyone!
Hey BF!
Hiya everyone!
Man, they're getting a little cocky, aren't they?
Hey Jenn!
I brought chilled STELLA and leftover Halloween candy
Hi Jackie and Penny and Petals and Jennifer and Joe and all who follows.
Hi Jackie, Petals,Joe & Penny. I'll be a bit slow typing tonight. Had surgery yesterday for a torn elbow tendon...darn kettlebell! Interested to see how the new tribes shape up.
Yummmm
Dang, guess Jamal is on the S*** list
Ouch! Speedy recovery!!
My Pool girl Kellee started the Fire.
Hi Glenn & Jennifer!
I really don't like emerald-colored bra chick. The sinewy one. ick
Hey Glenn!
Tell us how you really feel lorah
Norah
Thanks! Freaking painful. But I'll be fine...in 12 weeks, ughhhh
Ouch Jenna! See, that's how I stay so "fit": I don't work-out. BWHAHAHAAA
Crying...really
She is gonna be HAPPY
Hi Jenna G1
Hi Petals.
Hi Jackie.
Hi folks.
Hi everyone... a have a pot of chili, corn chips, cornbread, cheese, onions and sour cream.
Dig in!!!
I tell ya - if I was on an island with a past Survivor, it'd BETTER be ... you already know ... OZZIE!
YUM Friend!
I wonder if someone is going to break. LOL.
Not gonna lie, I'm liking the break, but at some point I'll start climbing the walls. No more kettlebells. Thats for sure!
Hi Everybody!
Heck yeah!
Yummy! I'll dig in!
Wow, Jenna. Hope you heal well. Sending prayers
They kind of do this in a way where no one wants to let the "cat out of the bag" so to speak. Finally someone thsy doesn't fall for it.
Lol, Petals!! Of course it would be OZZIE :)))
Hey Homie - GO BUCKS
Thsy...they
I hate these BS rationalizations. If she chooses the challenge, they'll probably be raving about what a risk taker she was. They just showed Chris taking the huge chance and winning.
Hi Monty. Jenna G I pray you start feeling better soon.
Jenna sending positive vibes for a speedy recovery and rehab. Was it the biceps tendon?
Janet made a good decision. I wonder if she'll tell everyone. It's so weird to watch this on CBS all access. I can't rewind to listen to it again like I can when I'm dvring it. Very strange. I wish Dish would get my CBS station back on.
Hi Homie, I like your proud Buckeye kitty cat!! GO BUCKS!!!
OMG! That was funny!!!
Tendon that attaches to the elbow bone. Tore it right off the bone. The paperwork has a big name for the tendon I tore.
The only saving grace is that it is my left. If it were my right, I'd really be screwed.
OMG Jenna! I fell 3 years ago, hit the stairs and snapped my tricep right off at the shoulder. The operation hurt worse than it snapping. LOL. I feel for you Jenna.
Missy is really, really perceptive. I wonder how far she goes?
Hi Ed!
Challenges .... love these!
Thanks❤
Well, Monty and Ed, it's about time pollsters finally gave Ohio State their just dues. For so long, I thought they would keep overlooking them. It seemed like no matter how well the Buckeyes played, they never reached #1. About time.
Geeminy, that does sound painful. Again, yet another reason why I don't work-out (again - bwhahaha)
PS - for anyone that does not know - I have a fake ankle, can barely walk. I joke about being a fitness junkie because, even before my surgery, I was practically sedentary. I applaud those who are actually health-conscious.
They all look so cold!
Jenna, my other half tore his distal biceps tendon and it was on his dominant (R) side. He had to learn to bowl left handed while he recovered and rehab'd. It sucks!!
Let’s go Jack!!!!
Since I'm watching this live on my PC, it's very blurry
Yep Penny, Numero Uno & it feels good!
Holy moly...that sounds way worse! Hopefully you healed ok...that's my biggest worry, that it won't be the same.
My hubs tore his bicep tendon while in Aruba.... he looked like Popeye on one arm!! It was so funny but not at the same time
She is...I was thinking that also.
no idea for which team to cheer...who do I like? No idea.
Same here Jennifer, lol
Probst giving his usual play by play commentery
Damn, that was close!!
What a finish!!
Wow that was close
please get rid of emerald bra. Yoga chick. Please.
That was sooooooo close
My Pool girl Kellie could be in trouble lost by one piece. Kellie said her Idol still good for this tribal.
Finally I made it in.... Hey everyone!!!
Agree Penny. It's funny that the top four are two SEC teams and two BIG Ten, and they have to play each other soon so it will change.
Petals & Jennifer how about those upper 60's today and now the wind is insane out there. Gonna wake up in the teens! Weather whiplash
If Lairo keeps Kharisma, they'll keep losing. I know they won last week, but I don't understand the reason why they keep Kharisma. Sure, she's an easy vote, but dang.
Hi all! Watching, but not really posting. I like when the competitions are close!
I'm tring to figure that out myself for this season. No huge standouts for me yet.
High of 47 here tomorrow. :(((
Well they probably should have thrown it!Tommy gets to stick around now.
Yeah she's a liability on any team...its time she goes
Hope your feeling better this week❤
Well Monty, I was shocked. Maybe it's because they do not see others even chancing to be on the top. However, they'v favored LSU and Alabama in the past. We'll see how they treat Ohio this coming week. It'll all depend on how much they beat their opponent. I hate it when they run up scores, but if they don't, they get downgraded.
Lol for us that would be welcome
Karishma is my pool pick and I don't know how she's survived this far. Seems he has been on the radar just about every episode. I concede I'll have to wait for another season for a chance at the pool win.
Jenn & Jenn - I don't have heat in my car! YIKES! I am in for a long winter! Stay warm! XOXOX
Thanks, Jenna!!❤️ I’m better
I just do not get it!!! I guess I can hope merge gets rid of those who are not worthy. LOL.
^ she not he
What's wrong with the car, Petals? Compressor?
I am SO NOT IN TO this season. I don't know any names, have no stake in anyone except my assigned pool-boy Jamal.
Geeminy.
But if Kellee uses her idol on Dean, she'll have a target on her back. Very risky.
no idea Penny. Fan blows, no heat. Can't afford to have it checked.
Wonder how this will play out???
I hope he doesn't tell the others and they vote out Kellee. Very, very risky.
Oh no...gosh that's rough. it gets downright bitter here.
That's what I'm afraid of too, Penny
I know, Petals, I feel that way too. I’m wondering if it’s those big creepy statues on the Island of Idols and Rob and Sandra hiding in the hut during tribal or just the cast...
And thell know she lied to them about ioi think janet already knows!
Yeah, can it get fixed without costing an arm and a leg?
Petals, does your vehicle run hot? If so, check the thermostat. That will cause it not to blow out heat. What kind of vehicle?
For me, it's the cast
Petals, it's probably just the thermostat and a cheap fix.
I hope my Pool Girl Kellie doesn't get voted out with her own Idol and join the bad player move list.
Dropped 10degress on my way home... ouch!!
I went an entire winter without heat in my car and it turned out to be the thermostat and a super easy/cheap fix.
Does not run hot. Prolly something easy (and hopefully cheap). I'll be OK... xoxo
Yep!
Yeah really..I kind of like her.
So far....
I need brakes, a tire (I'm on a donut) and current tags. I'm poor, man. LOL I barely get by; my car is my last priority right now.
LOL. I said the same thing, Monty. Thermostat is a much cheaper fix.
Glenn, I hope this doesn't come back to bite Kellee in the butt. I hope Dean keeps his mouth shut. He has a habit of talking too much.
I can’t believe they have kept her around
Noura talked to much
Gosh, just vote out Noura. Geesh.
UGH !! Norah/Noura/BORE-UH is a waste of space. G'Bye!
LOL Penny
Yes, get her out... so annoying
Petals, ❤️😘 good luck. Sorry you have this problem
Hehe!
Wow, Noura, say how you feel. Good bye!!
The women always talk about an alliance, even if they don't form one.
I hope she isn't the one they drag to the end to go up against in the end cuz no one likes her much.
Wow, Jamal, just talk yourself out of the game.
Teeb - One of my patients came in & we talked Survivor. She also felt removed from this cast, and unimpressed about the rob/Sandra return. It seems stupid now. Has any of their "mentoring" done anything??????
Hi TBC. I hope Kellie did not make a target on her back, Noura also making a target.
We are people! Stope with boys vs girls.
Oh, I like this chick, the recent one to go to Idols.
Yes, Janet!!
No I dont think so..heck 3 ppl were voted out after their visit.
Janet and kelly!!
Noura’s not my favorite at all
It’s a game jeff! Well said Jack
I've liked Janet too. Still waiting for a player to excite me though.
Well kellee and janet are the biggest threats don't think the tribe sees that at this point!
Judi - I wonder if anyone likes Noura?
Noura can be too condescending at times.
Woot woot dean!!
Who is he? Who played an idol? LOL
I hope he uses the idol!
Agree, and I hope they stay under the radar till the merge.
Mouth hanging open y’all!!
That's weird
What???
On Nora? Ughhhh
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Jamal is my pool dude. Dang. Sorry guys.
Oh my!
Kellie I hope doesn't go home. Now with Noura safe
That's good. But I hope it's not Kellee.
Jack! My guy
Poor Jack
Buy Bye Jack
What?!
Stupid Mistake for Jamal.
What?!? I’m blindsided !!
Now that's a good ole fashion blindside!
Jack out and Jamaal wasted his Idol.
Now Ponderosa begins... GOOD
That was one interesting tribal council
I don't understand Jamal's move. Cutting Noura wouldn't have hurt him. Why would you throw an idol on her even if she had votes?
Nobody even voted Nora?!
Dang, that's sad. I liked Jack.
this is a verrrry strange season. Hmm.
Love visiting with you guys.
Jenna - so sorry you are injured. Please feel free to text me anytime to chat. Feel better!
Jennifer - stay warm!
XOXOXOX Jackie & Vincent!
Ciao
Oh so sad about Rudy😥
Oh y’all! Have a wonderful end of the week, blessings to everyone 🤗 thanks Jackie for a wonderful platform to host, Jenna, speedy recovery and petals hoping for a inexpensive fix!
Great show. Thank you as always, Jackie!!
Petals, stay warm... Jenna prayers for continued healing and everyone have a great rest of the week.
GO BUCKS!!
Goodnight Jackie and everyone! Have a wonderful week.
I want to see who voted Jack. Dean or Kellee.
They kept Kharisma. So darn stupid.
Thank you, Jackie. Have a great week everyone. Hopefully, Dish has my CBS station back by next week. For some reason, they lost the satellite. I wonder why I can watch it on my PC? I guess it's completely different, right?
G'nite All!
Thanks Jackie!
JennaG get better soon!
Petals good luck with your car!
Monty GO BUCKS!
Why is he on the jury? I thought it only happened after the merge???
Thinking of you, Jenna. GOOOOOOOOoooo Buckeyes!!!
Kellee made a master move there shes gotta be up there with missy as the front runners to win this thing! Think jamal needed to play his idol for jack!
Yes, I loved Rudy. Very sad.
Thanks, Jackie!!
Jenna, healing 🙏 to you
GO PACKERS!!!
Original vokai still plus 1 at the merge but well see what happens!
Yep that was sad without him reality tv wouldn't be what it is today!
So confusing. If Jamal had given his idol to Jack, what then? Why in the world did Jamal waste his idol on Nora????? What is going on with this show? Why wasn't Karishna a candidate to go?
Oh if jamal knew jack was in danger he probably would have played it for jack. The problem is that there would be zero votes cast and they would re vote with jack and dean being immune, at that point the tribe would start whispering about who to vote out and jamal would be a possibility, but in jacks post game interview with rob he said he knew it was kellee that turned on him Eventhough she didn't cast the vote herself,so he may have brought up her name im suprised he didn't say anything about it being her on his way out but anyways the candidates to go at that point were noura because shes noura, karishma because shes the only other lairo member and dean is immune, kellee because jack had a feeling it was her that flipped and jamal who people don't get along with and if kellee couldn't get out jack she would have pushed for jamal because he didn't tell them about the idol! Now who out of those 4 would the tribe had voted out in that scenario? I don't know but probably jamal! What do you think??
well AUNTIE LEIGH looks like kass is predicting an aaron victory is that good news for you or bad news?lol
Thanks to the Moleman for explaining a few things to me...and , no, an AAron victory would not especially please me, even tho he is my pool-person...he betrayed everybody the show before the one above and has suffered no consequences. What is Kass? I will google it. Thanks for the comment.
She was a contestant on survivor cagayan and survivor second chances, don't really care about aaron either way would rather have him win than Elaine, but im rooting for Elisabeth! I know she isn't really playing as well as missy or kellee but well see what happens!
Hey Moleman, I googled Kass and found her. I guess her pick to win is now ..oops. I watched a YouTube thing about red-herring people who seem like sure winners, and then they don't. He meantioned Derrick among others. I had forgotten that Derrick did not win. It seems so funny that Karishma and Noura are still there and Kellee and Missy are gone. Who woulda thought?
