Survivor Gabon: Episode Discussion

[QUOTE=Bacchus;40832]I was not a fan and was only pulling for a twist/power shift - not a Corrine stay of execution. Her parting words were sour grapes and ate away at what little respect I had left for her. Actually, they jumped out at me. Very cold.[/QUOTE] I agree with you guys, V1 and Bacchus: I was entertained by Corinne to say the least but now I just see here as extremely cold-hearted. Not even human. I hope Jeff rips her a new one at the reunion. ***k her. It's not looking good for Kenny, but Bob isn't out of the clear yet! Honestly...if Kenny goes...it's ok....cuz it means SUGAR is getting that much closer =) Our "pool" was to pick who was "going to win" not who I "want to win". I'd pick Sugar and then Bob over Kenny for a personal choice...but at the time, Kenny was looking good. You never know though. The previews make you think one thing, but it never means it's going to happen. I can't believe Crystal has made it as far as she did. If she makes it to the end, she does NOT deserve the money and she'll never, ever win.

Last night's episode was great! Very emotional, Sugar and her sister spreading some of her father's ashes... I was crying my eyes out! The more I see Sugar the more I like her, she just seems like a good person, so does Bob. I have been catching episodes here and there this season and I gotta tell you I cannot believe Crystal was still there.

I usually don't like to promote my blog on forums (even though I'm sure I've posted it here a few times here and there), but in the case of me hating Corinne so much [URL="http://thelittlestwinslow.wordpress.com/2008/12/06/survivor-gabon-ding-dong-the-****h-is-dead/"]here[/URL] is my post for this week's episode. If you're interested you can do a category search of "Survivor" from there. Warning: it's long and hates on Corinne a-plenty!

[quote=Bacchus;41047]I'd like to see a miracle and Bob take the cash.[/quote] Same here! I've been rooting for Bob/Correine since the beginning. I'm sure he can outsmart Kenny and the others.

[quote=Bacchus;41049]There is an episode on Thursday and then 2 hours on Sunday (plus another hour after show.) ..and there are 6. You forgot Susie. [/quote] Oh ok, thanks for clearing that up for me Bacchus. I had no clue that they were having an episode Sunday. [quote=Bacchus;41047]I'd like to see a miracle and Bob take the cash.[/quote] I am rooting for Sugar to win this one! :D

[QUOTE=dplayer18;41051]Same here! I've been rooting for Bob/Correine since the beginning. I'm sure he can outsmart Kenny and the others.[/QUOTE] Corrine? Really? :suicide2: You're not one of those effete elitist snobs who absolutely knows he is better than anyone else are you? :rolleyes: Survivor Trivia: Bob has a unique connection to Jeff Probst. Highlight the spoiler below to find out what it is. [SPOILER]Bob was Julie Berry's high school teacher. Julie dated and lived with Jeff following the Vanuatu season. Jeff and Julie are no longer together.[/SPOILER]

I'm not one of those effete elitist snobs who absolutely knows he is better than anyone else :). Very glad Bob has a unique connection to Jeff Probst! Jeff must be giving him tips on how to survive the game.

[QUOTE=dplayer18;41057] Jeff must be giving him tips on how to survive the game.[/QUOTE] Doing so would be a violation of Federal Law -- The Game Show Act.

Didn't know that. Since Bob has that connection to Jeff, are they good friends outside the show?

I hope Matty or Sugar wins, I wouldn't even mind if Bob won it. I couldn't stand Corrine and I'm glad she went home. All her talk of everyone else being losers, she didn't do anything I thought was that phenomenal during her time in the game. Kenny annoys the hell out of me, I hope he goes home soon. And I still think Crystal sucks, she doesn't deserve to win.

I'd like to see Kenny win but I don't see it happening. I feel like if he did end up making the finals, the editors would have taken a different route to mask his appeal to the jury. But then again, he could turn out similar to the Micronesia version of Amanda: there was an emphasis through the season that she needed to go due to her supposed appeal to the jury, and the editors did not leave that out because she lost in the end. I feel like its going to come down to Susie, Sugar and Crystal and Corinne and crew will give it to Crystal. She played okay but wouldn't be the most satisfying winner. Definitely interested to see how the hidden immunity idol comes into play this week (as advertised by CBS)

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsapw7wusaQ]YouTube - Survivor Gabon Episode 13 Preview (5) Challenge Footage[/url] It looks like these last two episodes will be good ones! :D BTW: Are any vevmoers going to the finale show???

So judging my the clip... Kenny must have won the reward challenge, since he has a new outfit? And either Crsytal or Bob won immunity. (Maybe) because it shows them off to tribal council, and Matty, Sugar, Kenny nor Susie have the necklace on?

[quote=Phoenix;41177] It looks like these last two episodes will be good ones! :D BTW: Are any vevmoers going to the finale show???[/quote]I think either Eliza or Jenna Morasca has said that obtaining tickets to the Survivor finales are very difficult, and that its not as available to fans as something like Big Brother

[quote=Phoenix;41177] It looks like these last two episodes will be good ones! :D BTW: Are any vevmoers going to the finale show???[/quote] Not this season. The tickets are at least $1000 each and I don't know anyone in the cast as I did last time.

Will it be a final 2 this time?

It really does because last season it was final 2 but in the previous years it had been changed to final 3. So they can go either way with it though I agree it could be 3 instead of 2. Although it could be a long shot if Bob makes it to the end then I feel he will have a good chance to actually win but it'll be a hard road without really any allies with him.

I don't really think last season's F2 was designed to keep anyone guessing, I think it was that they ran into scheduling issues and had to think fast when James got injured.

[quote=ssseeeaaann;41208]I don't really think last season's F2 was designed to keep anyone guessing, I think it was that they ran into scheduling issues and had to think fast when James got injured.[/quote] Well I wasn't implying that last season's F2 was used in that way but that they could go either way this season as they have done both over the course of Survivor history so we'll see where they go. F3 sounds about right since they seem to favor it.

[quote=Bacchus;41528]Please give me a good twist tonight! Let's see some backstabbing and watch the alliance eat their own like cannibals! :D[/quote] Seeing Crystal roast Kenny over an open pit fire would kind of make my day.

I missed this episode! I am waiting for them to post it on youtube because I forgot to set my DVR! I really hope Kenny goes home tonight... I will refrain from reading any posts until i finally watch it. :(
