Survivor Official Thread - Episode 12

[dr.strangelove]

Well Judd, you got hosed. TO be honest, I don't think he was going to stab anyone in the back. I think he was going to stay with Stef until the final two and screw everyone else. He got played by Stef, who I think knew she had the potential to get ousted as a physical and mental threat, and she passed that threat onto Judd. I mean who would peg Judd as amental threat, but the way she agreed to view him as knowing what he is doing and the dumn guy thing being an act, I think she knows its no act and Judd is no mental giant, but she saw the opening and used it to her advantage. I think it was a good move on her part.

I loved that Danni won the bonus for the challenge. I don't care what family member I would miss seeing, my wife would gladly miss seeing me for seven more days to give me a better chance at $1,000,000. She made the right decision in putting all her money into that basket. Great move on her part. It was also good that Danni got to spend time with Rafe. It will help her out later.

I had thought that Danni blew it by switching with stef, I though Judd had a better board at that time, but she was right and got herself in a position to make a solid run at winning this thing. If she lost immunity, she was out of there last night. If she wins, and I think she will, that may have been the most important immunity win since Kelly beat Collen on the log in the ocean in season 1.

Another great episode and a great season is winding down to a strong finish.

1. You scumbags

Judd gets the Survivor sore loser award. It was a good episode but I'm amazed Lydia and Cindy are still in it. I agree that it was a good move for Steph to eliminate Judd. Danni is playing well - it will be interesting to see how far she can go. (pulling ofor Rafe to take the million)

2. I'm with you

I can't decide who to cheer for if it Rafe v. Danni, as they are my favorites. Judd was great when he called them scumbags. What an exit.

Lydia has to go, but Cyndilouwho is playing a great game. How she handles the not being told thing will be important. she can't put up to much of a stink or it will give them a reason to vote her off.

Also, I can finally say I have had enough Stef. I have a huge crush on her and wanted to keep her around for eye candy, but now that the show is almost over, I do not want her to win. I hope she gets the boot next week instead of Lydia, but I think Stef will win immunity and make it to the final 4.

3. I'm so sick of Stephanie

I cannot believe that I ever liked her. She is being so obnoxious. Even if Stef makes it to the end, I doubt she would get many votes. It seems everyone left, with the exception of Lydia, is more likeable than her.

4. I know

I still am incredibly attracted to stef, but she just got under my skin with the compaining and woe is me crap. She is actually a very good player. She was winning the immunity until Danni switched with her. Overall, I still think she is a major babe, but a major pain in the ass too. I heard she and that guy are engaged and getting married soon. We'll find out on the reunion show.

5. I almost felt bad for Judd

Almost. After seeing him with his wife and how sure he was of making it to the final two, I thought it was a little sad. SOMEONE GET RID OF STEF! Ugh. The woman is driving me nuts. I chose Danni to win in the contest, but I am actually surprised at what a geniunely nice person she seems to be. I figured she'd be a little stuck-up.

I agree with you, Dr. Strangelove, on the family member thing. I wouldn't give up anything to see my husband. Of course, I'm used to being away from him since we've been married 5 years and lived in the same house (city & state, even) for maybe 1.5 years total (he's military; I was in grad school for years). On Survivor, I'd say "Hi! See you in a couple weeks" and so be it. Maybe it is because of my situation, but I never understand how people get so emotional about not seeing their sibling/spouse/parent/child for 30+ days.

CindyLouWho... she annoys me because she is so quiet. I hope she goes soon. I don't like people that fly under the radar generally. There have probably been exceptions but I have a selective memory. :D
