Waaaa, I'm way late on this one today and sorry for missing one last week. I was not computer-accessible. I did, however, watch the show and was pleased to see JT voted off. Hillbilly. He deserved it for being dumb. Just as this week Amanda deserved it for being dumb. And for wearing no pants, but that's another issue. And I've decided to take my vote away from Colby. Colby, I loved you for a little while, but I'm a fickle Survivor pool girl, and you're dead to me now. But who to throw my weight behind at this point. Ugh... More on that later.
So... right. If you missed it, here's why I've fallen out with Colby. There's a reward challenge. It's shuffleboard and they're put on teams. Amanda, Colby and Danielle win and get a trip to Robert Louis Stevenson's (right?) house where they get to sleep in one bed together (weird, right?) and eat popcorn and watch Treasure Island. Now Colby, it seems, really loved the movie. 'Cause Danielle and Amanda were looking for an immunity idol clue. Colby, not so much. Boobs McGee found it in the popcorn and tried to hide it, but the Pantless Wonder has puppy eyes that see everything. She goes over & grabs it and the girls have this like, 6 year-old wrestling match where they both won't take their hands off this stupid clue. It almost came to hair pulling. On one hand, you're thinking, Amanda, that's really a slimey move. On the other hand, you're thinking YAY for you girl. Get it away from nasty Boobs. But what does Amanda do? She asks Colby's opinion on the matter, like he's some sort of big brother or babysitter or dad in the scenario. THEN, as if that's not bad enough that she even asked, he doesn't back her up. Dude, she's your teammate, you're supposed to have her back. If she gets the clue, it's good for YOU and can help YOU win a million bucks. Right? Nope. Colby wants to watch the movie. So Colby says, uh, yeah, it's Danielle's clue. Give it to her. And then mistake number 304, Amanda ACTUALLY LISTENS TO COLBY and gives it back to Danielle. What was the proper resolution to the problem? What would any normal human do? We all would have said, you know what? We've all seen that you have the clue, so let's all read it together and then it's every man for themselves. Right? Nope. Amanda and Colby are dumb and don't deserve a million dollars. Colby is fine with Rachel Ray anyways and Amanda is Miss Earth, right? They're fine. Don't feel sorry for them. Just give the girl some pants.
Anyways, back to the show. There was some good scrambling going on. Jerri won immunity, which was cute, because it was the first one she won in like, a million times she's been on the show. She said she was "swimming in Yay" which I really liked.
Russell convinced Candace to flip by showing her the immunity idol. Yes, Russell found the immunity idol after all that nonsense with Amanda and Danielle - neither girl ended up with it! It looked like Sandra might flip to the Hero side to get rid of Russell, but the Heroes aren't the brightest bulbs. Rupert (yes, Rupert) is looking like the smartest of the lot, but he's still sounding like Eeyore, with his moping. "No one believes me." "I can't convince them." "Oooh, my broken toe." OK, I'm paraphrasing a little, but seriously. Come on. And Sandra must have known that the Hero tribe wasn't together and then she found out that someone flipped and that it was a good thing to stay true to Russell's group.
And clever Sandra knows she's on the outs with her group. Russell at tribal council - "Sandra's just there with us." Ouch. BUT, she's clever, because if she does make it to the end, she can say she never backstabbed, right? Which, in recent seasons is what it's all about in the end - it's that whole "morality" thing.... Ugh. Don't get me started on that.
Anyways, in the end, Russell played the immunity idol but didn't need it because the other tribe voted for Parvati. But with Candace switching and Sandra not switching, there were enough votes for Amanda.
And Courtney on the jury... Jeff: "I'll go tally the votes." Courtney: "You do that." Hee! Love her. So who's left to like? I liked Parvati a little again when she hissed at Russell about the immunity idol, "You wasted that one!" Knocked him down a peg. And it looked like Russell's on the outs with Queen Parvati next week. Do I like Parvati now? I won't go that far. I want to cheer for Sandra, 'cause she's hilarious and the underdog, but she's won a million already. Do I care? I thought I did, but now I'm not sure. Do I want Russell to win so he'll shut up? Maybe. It's causing me to stay up nights.
Now Amanda, go put on some pants!
