Survivor 20:Hero's vs Villians, live comentary

I am still watching the series and it is on Tuesday nights and l love Russell and his antics

I like the way he gets the idol and the faces of the other contestants makes me laugh

I have enjoyed this series so much while some of the installiments of this show have been on the boring side
 
I am upset about the spoiler as well but I wouldn't trust it wholeheartedly. It's one thing to know who gets eliminated in what order, it's another thing to know who wins the show. Also, it is supposedly a final three, not a final two, that will be voted on, so perhaps the spoiler is incorrect. Maybe it's true, but maybe it's not. We'll have to wait and see!


Anyway, at this point I am rooting for Russell to win, but I wouldn't mind if Colby or Sandra won either. It was kind of sad yet hilarious watching Danielle break down in tribal council. She seemed "over it" by the time she got to Ponderosa though.
 
The funniest thing about the Danielle postgame clips is she said something like "I just don't get why Russell wanted to test my loyalty"... so somehow he managed to convince her at least, that he wasn't intentionally trying to destroy the pairing of her and Parvati... :lol:
 
Geez you could understand why Russell would want to get rid of Danielle she was getting too close to Provety.

And l do remeber the two girls were chatting quite alot.

But Russsell didnt know they were so close.

Didnt you see Provetys eyes when Russell sighed

it will be interesting to know what will happen next week.

There is only two weeks to go before we know who the winner is.
 
I'd like to see Pavarti and Danielle unite after the show is over..in Penthouse!!!

I just dont know how, after this season is over, I can go back to watching a bunch of pleebs next season.

Not true. There's tonight's episode (May 13th) and THIS Sunday's episode (May 16th). Hopefully you don't miss it, I have before in past seasons forgotten that the finale is on a Sunday.
 
Parvati got extremely lucky. The necklace saved her for sure.

I think it also cost Russell any hope for Ruperts vote. The look Rupert gave Russell on being voted out was one of death.

I can never understand the visiting family thing. I would not want to break away from the tribe for any reward at this point. The whole Survivor time frame is only about five weeks. I would have just stood and talked to my wife while the others scrambled to fill buckets. She agreed with that idea. But then she goes away to visit family overseas for 6-8 weeks each year, so we are use to these short separations.

At first I thought Rupert was giving Sandra the death stare, but after looking at it again, it appears he's looking right at Russell. I wonder if Rupert mistakenly thought Russell knew all along that Sandra had the idol.

I was kind of hoping Sandra would get creative and use the idol to shake things up, but the more I think about it, the more I think she was smart to hide the fact she had it and surprise everybody at the tribal council. Made them realize she's got game.

Speaking of the idol: Did everyone just give up on looking for it or did they just not show them searching? None of the other players knew Sandra had it and they must have figured out Rupert didn't have it after all (otherwise why target him), so why wasn't there a mad scramble to find it?

Colby was quite the jackass towards his brother. It's not like he's shined in many challenges on his own, yet he sure was quick to blame his brother for their lame showing during the reward challenge.
 
Colby continues to be useless, 15 seconds in to the immunity challenge he was done - him and his brother during the challenge was one of the funnier things I've seen.

Russell and his "strategy" - that being a basic bully and getting in people's faces and threatening them when things don't go his way - has to catch up with him sooner or later. I seriously doubt he'll win.

Pavarti got lucky with the immunity idol, but as someone said she's getting cocky. I think if the players were smart they'd vote her out first chance they get.

Just a matter of time before Jerri gets screwed over, I can't tell if she's floating or if that actually is her strategy, to appear as if she's flaoting through the game. Probably the former.

I was actually sad to see Rupert go - hated him at the start of the season but he really grew on me. I wonder if him causing that ruckus at night was what sealed his fate over Colby's.

Good episode though, can't wait for the finale!
 
I don't understand the comments about Parvati being "lucky" to get the immunity idol. She worked hard to get that idol, and she knew there was a chance Russell would go after her. There really wasn't any luck involved.
 
^ Well I meant she got lucky because there was a chance she could have been voted out. She no doubt worked hard to get it, there's no way I could have kept those poles stable for that long! And I'm an adonis! ;)

There's been a chance she could be voted out since day one. It hasn't happened yet. I'm thinking it's more than just luck. Though, luck does play a part for everybody in this game.

The ONLY reason she's still in the game is Russell. She'd be LONG gone were it not for him. He's carried everyone with him. If Russell doesn't win Parvati should but Russell is THE one that deserves the win again.
 
I thought Russell deserved to win last year just because his presence was the only reason why that tribe got to the upper-hand. When they merged the other tribe had the numbers, but Russell kept finding HII's, he got Shambo onto their side, he got the other tribe to vote off one of their own (who I can't remember right now name-wise for the first vote I think), he got John to go along with him to avoid a tie on that one vote, etc...

I don't think you can really say Russell is the sole-reason why the Villains are where they are, or why Boston Rob's group didn't make it through. Parvati played a role in things as well.

I think Russell has made too many mistakes to just state unequivocally "he deserves it more than anyone else.", he's pissed off people put onto the jury (sometimes for no real reason at all). That's not a very good strategy for winning a jury vote. The problem is what Rupert said when he was appealing to Russell, is actually how Russell thinks survivor juries SHOULD vote. He wants them to look and see "You know this person made the most moves, they lied/cheated/ their way into the final jury vote, etc...." so they deserve to be the winner.

I just don't think the jury votes that way. I can't see Russell winning. I'd be shocked if he gets more than 2 or 3 votes if he makes it to the final jury.
 
I think Russell gets TOO much credit. Its obvious everyone hated him two weeks ago. Did it ever dawn on him that they are keeping him around so whoever is left will be against him at the final tribal council and no one will vote for him? HE has been played..again.

Oh, he does all his control stuff, but at the end, it alienates him and he loses. RICHARD HATCH did the samething, but was more subtle..and, IMO, is the better player.
