So last night's episode was the first time we've really seen the Coach start being the Coach. Delightful. You knew it would happen eventually. And I'm having a difficult time continuing to like Russell. And I'm pretty sure I want Jerri to win. Pool schmool.
OK, backing up a bit.... let's see. Basically things turned around a little and the Heroes started working together a bit - even Tom made up with James over the Stephenie thing. And the villains are starting to not work together so well.
Russell and stupid Parvati are all cozy. Seriously, to the point where I said out loud, "Russell, you have a WIFE." Geez. Parvati is a disease. And the disease needs to be stopped. And the boys (Boston Rob & Coach) tried to warn Russell that it looks like they're too close... but he is infected. My absolute favourite part of the show was where Jerri said, "Every time she opens her mouth I just want to punch her in the face." Which, of course, makes me LOVE Jerri SO much. Becuase I, too, feel the same. Parvati's awful. The eyelash batting, and calling Jerri a "sad, old Cougar"... and the worst, which is the LAUGH. That fake laugh makes me so crazy. Ugh. I have her in the pool, and I wanted her to get voted out sooooo badly. Oh, and she called someone else fake... who was it? Coach? Ugh. (I mean, true... but really?)
I did enjoy Boston Rob's comment that for anyone coming on Survivor, just watch who sleeps next to each other to find out who's in an alliance. Hee.
Then Russell got up to his old tricks. Hid the machete. Like literally buried it in the sand so that everyone would freak out & he could cause chaos. It's funny. Though, aside from a passing mention and a pretty funny scene where Randy has to open a giant clam using a rock all caveman-styles.... there wasn't really chaos. Yet. Russell also really wants to steal Boston Rob's Red Sox hat. Hee - now that would be funny. BR would lose his mind, non?
Back in Hero-ville, Candice tells JT that she doesn't trust Cirie. Now maybe she's just trying to scramble a bit and make a second alliance. Problem is.... JT tells Cirie. Heh heh. I kind of like how JT is working the nice, honest, country boy thing again, while ummm... not actually being nice & honest. It's pretty clever. Anyways, Cirie confronts Candice and then rather than just accept it, Candice turns all crazy and goes to everyone and tries to find out who told. How about the person you said it to? Weird that she asked everyone but JT, non? And most people found it annoying, which is death in Survivor. Don't be annoying. You won't last long. And she just isn't as clever as Cirie.... and not very interesting, and who cares really? (Except maybe those of you who have her in the pool - sorry.)
The challenge. I love that they're combining the reward and the immunity challenge. This one was fun - it was using a hard pillow thingy to push your opponent a la Sumo wrestler into the mud. The Heroes dominated. Like not a single villain won. And you'd think that would be their forte, wouldn't you? The heroes were mad having not won anything yet. Between the crazy in James' and Colby's eyes, I'd have sat out. Colby was so amped up, I think I'd have just jumped into the mud myself. Yikes! The best parts to mention were when Coach beat (who was it? Russell? Can't remember. Doesn't matter.) So, Coach beat (Hero) but got DQed because he removed his hand from the pillow, which was clearly against the rules. So what does he do? He flips Jeff the bird. Really? Don't take it out on poor Jeff! So they had to re-do, and (Hero) won because Coach was off his game. Easy. Then the very last match-up was James vs. Randy. Clearly not a fair match. Clearly everyone knows James is going to win. And the Heroes were already up something like 7-0 at this point. So the thing to do really would have been to lightly push Randy into the mud (wouldn't have been tough for James, right?) and then help him up. Or at least acknowledge the mismatch. But no... James pushes Randy in locomotive-style, then throws the pillow-thing at him, prompting Randy to say, "That was classy," and someone else (Parvati?) to say, "I told you you were on the wrong team, James." Word.
So the villains had to go to Tribal Council. It looked like the choices were the old, weak guy (Randy) or the annoying, yet deadly virus (Parvati). The only person who was smart was Tyson, who commented that Randy is weak, but he is not a threat. He'll vote how you tell him and he has no friends on the other team (OK, he has no friends, period.) The smart thing to do would be to keep Randy and eliminate the threat, which is Parvati. (It even SOUNDS like a virus doesn't it? Have you gotten your Parvati shot yet? Sorry, I'm sick at home with the Parvati... can't come in today....) Anyways, amen to Tyson. However, no one is playing very smart. They got rid of Randy and kept that horrible, fake-laughing, eyelash-batting, hip-shaking virus. Which means of course, that unless Jerri can kill it, it will prevail and the Villains will die a slow and painful death.
My final, and hopefully more uplifting bit of writing will be about the Coach. OK, we got to see him doing a bunch of his un-googleable martial arts, complete with chanting. We got to see him flip off Jeff Probst. And then we got to hear a big speech about how he is the only person with any honour in the game, and going so far as to quote Dr. Martin Luther King Jr..... said that to HIS LAST BREATH, he will fight for Randy. Ummmm..... did any of you wait around to see whose name Coach wrote down at the vote? RANDY!! I guess he wasn't specific - he didn't say that he'd fight for Randy to stay on Survivor. Maybe he'd fight for Randy to get the correct change at the Walmart or something.... Oh, the honour of the warrior. And Randy, in true curmudgeon fashion, took off his Survivor buff and threw it into the fire, disgusted. Rightly so. I mean, I didn't see Randy winning this thing & I've said before that he doesn't quite fit in... but it was a dumb move that will come back & bite them all in the caboose in the form of the snake goddess herself. Trust.

Who's a Hero & Who's a Villain? Who's on Steroids?
OK, so it's a bit of a busy day today. Will have to keep it short, but will give you an update in case you were watching men's skating instead of Survivor (or did you watch both, like me? I am in love with Evan Lysacek. I don't think he's on my team, but no matter. Poor Patrick Chan, but he just wasn't as good. But he'll be back next time, not to worry.)
So that whole thing with Boston Rob passing out. He's mad 'cause he's the only one working - the shelter is still crap. "I'm dizzy. I need some watah." First, I loved the camera shot as if you were seeing what BR sees... the ground coming up fast. Hee. Then Jerri's there trying to help. Oh the drama. She goes for help. Then, as poolster Lori pointed out, he's asking for help and the cameraman keeps on filming. Ummmm... dude.... a little help? Turned out not that serious - some "flu", exhaustion, dehydration and a bit of "crybabyitis"... Hee. Weird though, right? Seemed like he was drunk - couldn't drink the water, was all out of it. Thought he was going to start saying, "I love you, Jeff! You're my best friend!" or something. And then Russell starts getting all worried that BR is getting too much attention.... so he goes and kills a chicken. "I'm King Russell of Samoa." Really? Stop it. Don't make me trade you for Jerri.
Are you loving Jerri? She's pretty normal & likable this time out, non? I didn't think I would be, but I'm a fan. And again, where is the Coach we know and love? I'm waiting for some great Coach-isms, but all I'm getting is Rupert, Rupert, Rupert. Am sick of Rupert/Eeyore and his constant talking. Stephenie was right - he IS annoying. Even those of you who like him have got to admit it. And for some reason, he had it in for Stephenie. I think she challenges his popularity - after all, she was almost as popular as him, remember?
The immunity/reward challenge went the same as last time. The Heroes did really well up until the part where they had to solve the puzzle, then they failed miserably. They even had a strategy going in to listen to JT (the challenge was in his season)... but no one did. Then James had a meltdown. He completely called out Stephenie for not listening, when to me... it seemed like pretty much everyone wasn't listening. Then James went on a rampage going on to everyone who'd listen about how Steph was the only person left on her tribe (ummmm 12 seasons ago) and so must be bad luck. Really? That's why you're voting against someone - because they're BAD LUCK? What? Ease up on the steroids, man.
So Steph, Tom & Colby did their best to wrangle Cirie and Candace to join them in voting for Amanda. Cirie later said to Candace, "I don't care who goes, as long as it's not us." And you can imagine that Cirie - no matter how much she hates Amanda - is a smart cookie and knows Steph is the bigger threat in the long run. And that is why Steph got voted off. Not 'cause of James (well maybe a little) but more 'cause of Cirie. Poor Steph. Oh well. James wouldn't shut up about it though and was really quite a jerk at tribal council. Am starting to think James sucks. (And next week, it looks like he loses it even more, maybe hurting someone?) We like him more when he's the gentle giant, non? I did LOVE Tom and Colby for sticking up for Steph. Now that was a Hero move. THAT is why they're on the Hero team.
A couple other quick notes:

A couple other quick notes:
- When the villains are trying to make shelter, Courtney offers some suggestions. Randy: "She's a waitress in New York & now she's doing construction?" Hee. Later, when they win immunity, Courtney gives Randy this HUGE hug, which clearly makes him super uncomfortable. Ha!
- Is Courtney psychic? First the comment about breaking Steph's shoulder (then it dislocates), then a comment about Boston Rob dropping dead (and then he passes out). Seriously. What up?
- Oh, and I loved it when Parvati got bonked in the head with the giant cube in the challenge. Does that make me a bad person or was it karma?
- Speaking of injury, during the challenge when they're pushing those cubes down the course, Tyson yells out to roll the thing over Rupert's broken toe. Ha! So funny.
- And finally, Danielle really needs a sports bra. Come on! All that running with those things can't be good for you.

One down, 18 to go
Season 20! Heroes vs. Villains! So exciting, right? What did you think about last night's premiere? I enjoyed every minute of it, but I'm a freak. I did think it could have been a 1-hour show - there was quite a bit of filler. But... on the whole I'd say it was pretty entertaining. I like how they are bringing back past challenges that some of the Survivors will know. I loved that the first challenge was right off the bat crazy wrestling in the sand. Awesome! I loved the way people are playing the game. Everyone's overthinking it, which is great. In most seasons, you know how it goes.... there are a few people playing and most people either get voted off or they don't start playing til episode 12. I LOVE that all of these people are playing from the start, making alliances on day one, and know what to expect. And I love that both teams seem to really get along (so far). I'm very excited to see where it's all going to go once people start in with the blindsiding, hidden immunity idols etc. Yay!
OK - so instead of a re-cap, I thought I'd just go through the players & give you my thoughts after the first episode (with a little re-cap thrown in....)
1. The Coach. I had to start here. I honestly was a little disappointed because I expected a little more of his crazy to show up on day one. Not that there wasn't any... I mean, the constant warrior posing, doing his special tai-chi on the beach (which, you may remember - is a special type of martial art that was taught to him by... oh I forget... some monks? And I quote, "you can't even google it.") And at one point he's wearing a velvet smoking jacket. Yep. He's awesome. I enjoyed (while cringing) his man-crushing on Boston Rob and the romance with Jerri is delightful. Finally, Coach dragging Colby through the sand in the first challenge was fantastic. Poor Colby. And Tyson's comment that Colby might as well become a woman now... ha! Nice.
2. Tyson. He's mean, yes. He's also pretty funny. And the teeny, super-tight swim trunks (or were they underpants?) Nice touch. Watch for Tyson to do well this time out I think.
3. Jerri. Seems much more likable this time out, non? Wait for the bitch to come out once she goes through chocolate withdrawal... but maybe the romance with Coach will make her all nicey-nice? Hope not. I want her to take Parvati down.
4. Parvati. Ugh. Thankfully, there wasn't a lot of Parvati talking last night. I hate when she talks.
5. Courtney. We have not seen enough of Courtney. I love her eye-rolling and sarcasm. When the girls are out wrestling and she yells at her teammates to "break Stephenie's arm!" And then they just about do! Steph ends up with a dislocated shoulder, which the medics put back in. Steph goes on to just shake it off & continue on like it never happened. Hee. But yeah, Courtney's tiny (like, as thinnified as she was after 30-something days of island life last time....) and she'll need to be careful in this first part of the season, when the tiny girls often get picked off if they're weak.
6. Danielle. Do you guys remember Danielle? I sorta do. I remember that she was pretty good at challenges, and quite booby. Yes, that's what I said. Which brings me to this question again... why the bikini tops? I notice a couple of the gals are wearing sports bra types... much smarter, non? I digress. Danielle has made an early alliance with Russell. Is she the next Natalie?
7. Russell. Oh Russell, you know I adore you... why are you SO high on yourself? He IS a good player, but Russell, you didn't WIN like ummmm... a lot of these people did. He's making alliances with everyone already. Tried Parvati & she saw right through him. He can't forget that the people he's playing now are smarter than the ones he played last time. Now, that said, he is pretty excited to play other people who "respect the game" and he does keep going on about being a little intimidated by the other all-stars. He could use some humility. Also, keep in mind that none of the others have seen Russell's season, so he has a bit of an advantage. He doesn't, however, have any natural allies from his own season.
8. Randy. Randy doesn't really seem to fit in so far. I'm not sure he'll last long. Already he told Boston Rob to not bother making fire because "we're sure to get fire sometime in 39 days." Dumb. Randy's only option is to play under the radar and shut the hell up.
9. Boston Rob. So far, pretty fun to watch. A little more mellow (which he attributes to being married now and having a child). He's funny. He made fire (finally! someone googles "how to make a fire" before coming on Survivor!) And next show, he passes out & looks unresponsive! Gah! I'm a bit worried our Boston Bob (as Sandra called him) might get taken out of the game for medical reasons.
10. Sandra. Who? Right. We can all barely remember her. I think she seems nicer than I barely remember, but I barely remember. We'll see.
11. Stephenie. Like I mentioned earlier - she's tough as nails. I like Stephenie. She's allied with Tom, which might make her a target. Plus, she doesn't seem to naturally gel as well with the girls. Her best bet is to get tight with more of the boys... bring on JT or James...
12. Tom. The Silver Fox. Will he play a different game? Last time out, they practically gave him the money. This time, he's seen as more of a target. Plus, he's already won. He made a pretty clever alliance with JT to go to the finals. Clever if you're a winner, you'd want to bring another winner with you. Good thinking.
13. JT. JT is a sneaky, sneaky devil. He won last time because, much like Tom, he's so darn likable. He can stab you in the back with a smile on his face & that whole 'good ol' boy' southern thing..... A very big threat. Has alliances with Tom and also James. And don't forget he's pretty good buds with Tyson and Coach on the other team. Yikes!
14. Candice. Who? Exactly.
15. James. Yum. James is just lovely to look at, non? I mean if you're a guy or a girl, you've just got to be impressed... He "won the genetic lottery" as poolster Don said to me this morning. So true. He's gotten in trouble before for being too nice. We'll see.
16. Rupert. Hee. The tie-dye. Really? Still? Anyway, I know a lot of you like Rupert but I just don't. I mean, I totally like him as a human and a real-life person (did you see where he used the money he won on Survivor to start a program called Rupert's Kids that gets troubled street kids on the right path? Very cool thing to do.) BUT... as a character on Survivor... I've had enough. I found him pretty funny yesterday moping around - reminded me of Eeyore... "Oh... I just can't catch a fish.... I am not very helpful.... I can't start a fire....I have a broken toe..... " Rupert needs to be the provider. He can't get his head around not having this role and not having to take care of his tribe. He needs to find a new role & get more positive, or he'll be gone.
17. Amanda. The puppy eyes are killing me. Liked James giving her the gears for actually being able to answer a question in tribal council. Hee. (Do you remember how Parvati beat her in the final 2 even though it looked like Amanda had it in the bag? Because she screwed up at tribal council and her answers sucked!)
18. Colby. Colby has a lot to prove. Getting whipped by the Coach was humbling. The big hat makes me laugh (though it's really pretty smart.) He's not quite as annoying as I thought he'd be. Sugar trying to come on to him was pretty funny. She was like a little bug, and he kept shooing her away and she kept coming back... Everyone was just trying to sleep. Ugh. We all felt bad for Colby yesterday on so many levels.
19. Cirie. Almost got herself booted off last night because everyone knows how clever she is. She's all nice to everyone and you know she's a master of the game. The Amanda/Parvati season... that was Cirie that got them there. Did you catch the eye-roll when someone (Jeff?) said something about Parvati "leading the women"??? Nope, it was all Cirie. Then the two mean girls stabbed Cirie in the back. Hopefully she'll play on some of Amanda's guilt & use it to her advantage.
20. Sugar. Oh Sugar, when did you get so annoying? Her team had a huge lead in the immunity challenge, and then the puzzle - the great equalizer. It wasn't just Sugar who lost it - there were others on the task. However, that combined with the annoying night-time antics, and the crying (even Jeff wasn't kind... after they lost the challenge... Jeff says, "And right on cue, Sugar's crying." Hee.) and the fact she's just a little weaker than the others... all led to her downfall. Now, that said, I really enjoyed the part where she's wrestling with Sandra, who undoes her bra-top to prevent her from moving. Clever, except Sugar just gets up topless, runs to the mat to win the point for her team and then flips 'em the bird. Nice! Now that's taking one for the team...
OK - so instead of a re-cap, I thought I'd just go through the players & give you my thoughts after the first episode (with a little re-cap thrown in....)
