There's some basketball game on instead of Survivor.... But according to CBS.com the schedule shows that Survivor should be on. What the heck??

[mirrormere]

So sorry to hear that! It's on here, though i'm watching it about 50 minutes delay in order to skip commercials.

Looks like I need to put up a Halloween avatar!

[Edwardo Piet]

Awesome avatar Mirrormere! looks like the skull from the game Heretic:



Well... in that it's a skull and it's awesome looking xD

[mirrormere]

Oh, that's cool!

Terry had to leave due to a family emergency! Poor guy! His son needed a heart transplant!

And they've combined tribes again. Kass and Spencer are at each other already. Stephen seems pleased to be on Bayon.

The slippy slide reward challenge was intense!

Savage decided to tell Spencer they're getting rid of Ciera which now is making her suspicious. I would think if you had to give out a fake name to someone that you wanted to blindside, why wouldn't you ask for volunteers?

FOOD CHALLENGE! By teams.

Ick! Tarantulas! Water beetle? Looks like roaches! Pig snout. Stehphen finishes first. Kass pukes. Deep fried frog. Pig's brain. Scorpion! So gross! Balut! Kass pukes again!

Haha! As Kass says "Spencer Bledsoe, zero percent chance of winning this game," lighting struck in the background. Omen?

Sayonara, Woo!

Wow! A Kass and Spencer alliance! That’s a surprise. So Kass breaks with Savage - that’s going to put him on the defensive. Spencer is a greater threat to Kass than Woo, but she must be trying to cement her alliance and that now includes Spencer.

And the merge next week.

I'm sad to see that Terry had to leave but glad that his son is doing well! I was online yesterday and saw an interview with Terry somewhere (probably CBS.com) and was like "Oh, no, this is a show spoiler, isn't it?" I was surprised that did that right off the bat as the cold-open to the show, I mean, wow! We went to the opening credits and I was like "Wait? There's still a whole episode after this!"

I love the slip and slid challenge - and whoa, Jeremy in that oil! Meow! His dark skin tone with that oil really highlighted his physique!

And poor Stephen is not a runner. nicker:

Eating challenges would be the bane of my survivor career (not that I'll ever have one) - but I'd let my tribe know that if I were given tarantulas that would be it for me. There's no way I can even look at them let alone pick one up and eat them. I would *attempt* anything else, but not that.

Crying Stephen is endearing. I hope he's getting set up for a streak of good episodes with an interview like that! they don't show stuff like that for nothing!

Will Stephen eventually succeed in ousting Joe or will Joe discover the plot and turn it on Stephen? I suppose Cathy and my boy-brawl will have to wait for a future episode... Joe is safe... for now...

Savage throwing Cierra's name out there was stupid. You don't do that. If you're going to try and mislead someone like Spencer, the decision of whose name will be put up in opposition needs to be a group decision. I would have said it needed to be Abi, but I think Savage knew that she was volatile enough that if that happened she'd immediately have gone to Spencer and turned the vote. What Savage didn't know was that the same thing was going to happen with Cierra.

I'm glad Cierra is getting more air time. She's a candidate winner for me. She's small enough that she's not a physical threat to anyone, she's undervalued by some (*ahem* Savage), and she can be strategic in a fierce way. I hope she makes it deep even if she doesn't win.

I loved the emergence of Chaos Kass tonight - "will she? won't she? will she? won't she?" I'm also sort of glad to see Woo was the one going home. He's not a bad guy and I certainly think he was playing a bit more of a strategic game (in that he, at times, appeared to actually be playing) but he's just not a very interesting character on the show overall. I stand by my original desire that we would have gotten Troyzan or Shane rather than Woo.

And I'm so pleased that Spencer is still here.

Spencer is a greater threat to Kass than Woo, but she must be trying to cement her alliance and that now includes Spencer.

I disagree on both counts. First, Spencer is a threatening player, but Woo was attached to Savage making Savage an even more threatening player since he's starting to amass numbers (with Woo and Abi - if he can control her - and Tasha after the merge). The dangerous thing about Woo is exactly what Tasha said about him: he'll take walking orders a minute before tribal from whomever is running his alliance. That's what makes Woo dangerous: he doesn't (seem to) play his own game, but he's a number for someone else when they eventually turn on you.

Second, I also disagree that Kass and Spencer are necessarily in an alliance that is being cemented. It's more an alliance of convenience - Kass saw the need to get Woo out and cripple Savage, who is turning into a powerful player, and Spencer was a means to an end. Kass isn't an idiot; she knows that Spencer is a threat, but so does everyone else. Spencer will always be on everyone's radar, it's people like Woo who never seem to be a threat that skate to the end and find themselves sitting in a finale - just like Woo already has. People have won by doing that before, and, as Stephen said, you have to seize opportunities and vote people out when you get the opportunity to do so.
