Survivor 47

[speed817 19,173]

Last night had me wondering.....what happens if a contestant kills another one on the show???  Sol has much more self control than I do.....

Also, this had me cracking up......

[Lat22 4,006]

I was convinced Rome threw that challenge. I was surprised that it never came up. And nobody believes that you’re 45.

I had the same thoughts on both counts.  On the other hand, maybe Genevieve threw the challenge.  She was the one handing him pieces to try.

45!! Come on, easy to believe she was still in her 30's a few years ago lol. 

[Pokoloco 1,277]

The editors had to leave the 45 comment in there for laughs.

My wife and I said the same thing watching it.  He was dying to leverage his advantages and get rid of Sol.  I mean is he so stupid he can’t get one piece?  It was comical how bad he was at doing a puzzle.  A goldfish would get two.  Then he used it on kishan.  Gen must have promised him a piece.

Excellent tribal council

She got blindsided real hard.

Made her cry lol

[kevwun 15,681]

That was a full on sob.  That doesn't happen too often.

[Knoxtnhorn 5,966]

In all the years I've watched, I don't recall anyone ever turning around and telling the tribe to go F themselves.  I want to see this.

[Horn80 6,110]

She’s arrogant as hell to act that way.  It’s fucking Survivor bitch.  

[idigTexas 2,270]

That was very satisfying.  Really glad to see that Andy did not revert into his panicked persona.

1 - Love how stunned she was. That was fun.

2 - Somebody please tell Jeff that barbecue isn't a verb and doesn't have anything to do with hot dogs.

Jeff isn't from Texas, so he is likely using the term as it is commonly used everywhere else.

Rome is getting one of the strongest “YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO LIKE THIS GUY” edits I’ve ever seen. I trust that means his downfall will be hilarious.

Can confirm.

Tee’d his ass up like a motherfucker.

He went out like a pro though.  That's how you react to a blindside.  Unlike the sobbing bitch from last week.

I said the exact same thing, word for word.  Also, how did Andy go from being a complete disaster to one of (imo) the best players in awhile?

Yeah he was really annoying, but he handled it very well.

One of the few (if not the only) episodes where production made no bones about who was getting voted out.  There was no subterfuge.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,106]

Watched it last night, Rome finally got his piece of humble pie.  Agree with everyone with the way he handled it.  If I were betting, I'd say we'll see him again in the future.  The producers know how galvanizing he is, and it makes good drama.

Last week I finally zeroed in on my faves for this season.  On the ladies' sides I'm pulling for Rachel and for the men, Sol or Kyle.

Same exact list for me, although I'd probably add Genevieve as well.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,106]

^^ At one time I was teamG, but when she allowed Rome to stay just so she could make a resume' move.  It became a no go.

Fair - Rome is/was the worst.

I'm not really feeling this season and it's piling up on my dvr but I just watched this one.  L-O-L.  There's not enough bleach and botox in the world lady.

[idigTexas 2,270]

Another satisfying tribal.  Keep it coming, please.

She is really hard to look at. Sol had to be giggling inside when she said doubled down on being 45.

Yep.  I don't want to judge, as I'm no George Clooney, and it is possible she had a bunch of work done because she was in some horrific accident or something.  On the other hand, if she paid for all of that thinking it made her look decades younger, she needs to sue her surgeon.  

[kevwun 15,681]

Do these people start out with the goal of looking like a cat person?

We’re men. Judging is our birthright.

That had to be a rough, stressful tribal to go through.....

[Horn80 6,110]

I’m digging that vote.

That was a helluva "advantage" that Sol found.

Can't wait to see someone lie about giving her the advantage lol

The players swear up and down that nothing is faked.  That entire meal/discovery seemed so contrived.  "Hey!  Let's all cover our faces and ignore Sal and multiple camera people walking around the picnic.". Seems similar to all the shots in the past of players hiding in the bushes and trying not to get caught.  "I can't find Russel Hantz; however, his camera guy seems to be hanging out near those bushes."

Everything about that was manufactured. Do they ever have advantages at reward meals? They all acted like it was a thing. Andy was looking for something, then Sol..they were clearly tipped off. Then, he had to sneak it into someone's bag..then they had to happen to find it in their bag.  Completely contrived.

FTR, there have been several reward meals where there is some type of hidden advantage.  But yeah, this was way to freaking obvious for sure.

[Knoxtnhorn 5,966]

I felt like nobody saw it and the producers were all, "Everybody lay back down and think about what you might be missing".

[Pokoloco 1,277]

What if shoe doesn't realize Sol slipped her the advantage? this was all a put on.

[idigTexas 2,270]

This is an interesting season.  We've had people get super bitter about being voted off, but I don't remember this much sadness (I'm sure there has been some).  There are several people playing good games so far.  I'm hoping for some sort of Sol, Caroline, Rachel alliance, but I'm not sure if Caroline would be on board.  I would love to see Sue go soon.

She thought crying about how so much she wanted to at least make it to jury would secure not getting voted out.  Cry me a river.  Sol became my favorite after that move.

All this emphasis on making the jury has to be a financial motivation.  Do they get paid a bonus to be on the jury?  Is the resort life that good for a few days?  Lot of crying but then again, these younger folks tend to cry over all kinds of shit.

I'm sure theres some game aspect to it, but if it's like big brother, it ensures you make the full stipend for the season.
