Last night was AWESOME. Randy getting blindsided like that when he thought he had the hidden immunity idol was CLASSIC. That's a defining moment in survivor history.

Ok, I am a bit of a Sugar fan now. They could have easily voted Randy out, but they managed to thoroughly HUMILIATE him in the process. And the reactions were priceless. Sugar really needed to show a bit more composure to keep herself from being such an obvious target, but I admit, I had an uncontrollable fit of giggles during tribal council as well. The whole thing about the cookie was hysterical! I loved how Sugar metaphorically kicked him in the nuts over his attitude. And then, not to just vote him off the island, but to kick him in the nuts as we walks out. That will definitely go down in Survivor history. If they can keep it up for a couple more weeks, it could rival the wonderful Fans vs Favorites season with those awesome immunity idol hijinks.

And by the way, kudos to Bob for creating the most convincing fake immunity idol the show has seen. Much better than a stick with eyes or whatnot.

I think a Bob/Sugar final two would be my preference for the finale.

I'm still confused why people keep giving Sugar all of their information! Why did Bob tell her about the fake idol?! He knew that he and she were the only two there for weeks, so it is likely that she has it. Does she know the others went through her stuff and found it?

Her sign off in the voting booth was priceless...only bested by Corrine's smirk turned "I crapped myself" face.

Crystal took the prize in the voting booth this week. The way she bellowed her thoughts for all to hear was a RIOT! There were so many wonderful elements to that episode.

And I don't blame Susie for getting out of the bathtub. Getting clean is wonderful. Soaking in a hot tub out in the intense African heat...not so much. I get overheated very quickly and I probably would have passed out if I was already hot and had to get in a hot tub.

Oh YES Crystal in the voting area!! Hilarious!

Did you see next week Bob is telling Corinne that the idol wasn't thrown in the ocean? I hope that's a lie they are telling Corinne.

I would've too, if I had to soak in front of everyone and miss getting a cookie!

So when when Marcus and Charlie walked in as the jury, did anyone NOT immediately wonder if they were sharing a bed?

I think they did it. Marcus had that special morning-after hangover gay-for-a-day regretful glow of shame about him. And Charlie's eyes had the mournful glance of blissful memories of an opportunity seized with the aid of tequila and hotel porn quickly jaded by the inevitable sour-breathed rejection on the sweat-dampened sheets commonly found in the late-morning haze of a three-star hotel room in the tropics.

Matt, you are hilarious.

You were so totally thinking the same thing!

I mean, who hasn't been there, right?

[doodlenyc]

I thought it...absolutely!

I WAS thinking the same thing! Best episode by far. C-ya Randy! Cookies anyone?

This is for all of us...

I want to give my cookie to Mister Matty.

[adamgreer]

Posted: 11/21/08 at 5:43pm

No, Phyllis, it's not your cookie. They're mine. If I want to thrown them on the ground and stomp on them, I will. You can eat the cookie yourself, or take nothing.

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 11/21/08 at 8:05pm

Can I have half a cookie?

[adamgreer]

Posted: 11/21/08 at 8:48pm

As long as you don't give it to Phyllis. She had her chance.

Someone should tell Kenny that he looks faggy when he eats cookies.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 11/22/08 at 12:38am

Hmm. Someone's a bitter queen tonight!

[Calvin]

Posted: 11/22/08 at 12:40am

I know! You should make a thread about how funny that is.

eta: Seriously, though, I hope they gave Kenny a little Purell before he ate that cookie, because his fingernails look like they should carry a biohazard warning. Updated On: 11/22/08 at 12:40 AM

OMIGOD I feel TERRIBLE for starting this thread and then being so far-removed from the conversation!

Thanks for keeping it alive Nick, Matt and Michael.

Totes loving the cookies and (eew have you seen Kenny's fingernails!) I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING when Charlie and Marcus walked into the Jury. They are SOOOO hookin'-up in that Jury House. And now that Randy the videographer has joined them... I think we should keep our fingers-crossed for some Gabon X-Tube footage!

My thoughts so far:

I frankly don't know who to root for anymore... Marcus was my #1 and Charlie was my #2 favorites. For me, it has always been about Goodness, Honesty and Loyalty. They are SO RARE in "Survivor" so when they appear, I lay my chips down. Marcus and Charlie were playing this game valiantly and with a respectable passion. They had formed a strong alliance and were keeping team-morale. Now I suppose I'm hoping for the best with Bob (#1), Matty (#2) and Corinne (#3)

Sugar is getting on my last nerve... not only for her projected ditzy-ness, but because 3 TIMES she has affected the outcome of the game with her damn swing-vote... She can be talked into ANYTHING! Honestly, tell her to cut off her thumb and she probably would. And yet, at the last-minute, it seems the gravity of her decision "hits her" and she starts either crying or laughing at tribal-council. GAH!

Crystal and Kenny destroy me. I scream so loudly at the TV whenever their faces are on-screen. If either one of them are in the Top 3, I'll be furious.

Susie... don't get me started... waste of time to type about her.

I LOVED THE ELEPHANT ENCOUNTER (though a little dangerous) and huge-props to Bob for that totally awesomely crafted Fake Idol.

WHO ELSE SCREAMED: WHHAAATTT!!! with the teaser for next week????

I love Bob.

What an awesome episode. How sweet is Bob's wife?!?

[adamgreer]

Posted: 12/5/08 at 6:49am

I love Bob too, and wish he would win, but that's pretty much an impossibility at this point.

As much as I despise Corrine, and am happy she is gone, I kind of wanted she and Bob's plan to succeed last night, because it would have given Bob a fighting chance next week. However, they'd be stupid to keep Bob around any longer now, because if he makes it to the finals, he's gonna clean up in jury votes.

As for that plan, how come Bob and Corrine didn't think that Kenny and co. would try to flush out the idol?

Speaking of Kenny, he's suddenly gotten on my last nerve. He has become very cocky and arrogant all of a sudden.

If Susie and Matty were smart, they would realize that they are on the outside of a 3 person alliance, which has every intention of going to the finals together. They ought to get Bob and work on some kind of blind side of Kenny next week. Not that either of those two is smart enough to do this, but it's a nice idea.

I watched for the first time in eons last night. Bob and his wife are adorable together!

Kenny seems like a jerk. What's the deal with Matty? Is he a nice guy or a jerk?

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 12/5/08 at 7:38am

I think that Matty is struggling to be a reformed jerk. He's a product of the Hollywood Brat Pack syndrome and admitted to his party past.

[StockardFan]

Posted: 12/5/08 at 7:40am

Aaah.....that's sort of the impression I got. I did think it was cute when he proposed to his girlfriend.
