Survivor: Vanuatu - 10/28/04

On the next Survivor:
Spoiler:
One member's lack of work ethic prompts negative reactions in the tribe.

After winning a hard-fought Challenge, one tribe is rewarded with more than just sustenance.

One Survivor, in danger of being voted off, wins a Challenge for the tribe, thus buying more time on the island.

A potential target at Tribal Council, one Survivor tries to convince the rest that another tribemate should be next to go.


From the video preview, this could be an interesting episode.

I'm hoping Lopevi continues its winning ways, and that Eliza is sent packing.

I hope either Twila, or Chris is gone from Lopevi if they go to TC, and Scout, or Eliza from Yasur if they go to TC.

let's hope the gameplay of the last episode continues and expands and the dullness of the eps before that is gone at this point.

They gotta put something new into this show, each season is practically the same as before.

Well, the winner of reward:

Spoiler:
Yasur, who got some cafe and munchies, plus letters and photos from home.


The winner of immunity:

Spoiler:
Yasur, and Lopevi let go of John, though John mounted a campaign to get Chad out.

I'm thinking ponies. What do you guys think about the inclusion of ponies?

Look, they found the Magical White Cups Tree!

Do they have to hold them in every confession scene from now on?

I hate that the written preview pretty much gave away that Rory would win the immunity.

Well, it could have been John K. Of course, he had no storyline, so it was still obvious it'd be Rory, but at least they gave us two options.

Oh, and once again Scout proves how utterly useless she is in this game. If by some quirk of fate she wins it all, I'll be mighty pissed.

I agree. She better not win.

They always seem to do that. Plus, the previews for next weeks show will always give away a key plot point. Like for this weeks show, in the previews they showed Ami and Scout crying. Then during the show they reveal that the reward includes a message from home. Well it doesn't take a genius to put two and two together to come to the conclusion that Yassur wins reward. That pretty much killed all the excitement of that challenge for me.

I try to avoid all previews (written or visual), but sometimes the commercials pop up and I find myself without the remote, thus unavoidable.

This is the first time I've watched an episode of Survivor where I had to use my Replay-TVs 30-sec quick-skip quite liberally.

I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but I didn't mind the episode.

Over the past few weeks, I've found Rory quite entertaining. I used to want to see him get booted off, but now I'm curious how much longer he'll be there for.

Rory wished for a crack in the women's alliance. His wish was granted, but only after he GAVE a speech.

I think GuessWho is onto something.

same here. Since Rory is actually doing something instead of going for walks on the beach to find seashells, he's a much more likeable person now.

This thread has been brought to you by Folders, Pringles, and Chevy - Remember, It's good to the last rock hard chip!

Can Survivor possibly whore itself out MORE companies? If they are going to have so much product placement, I wish they would at least make the show longer by having fewer commercials.
