Recap:
Looks like Rotu is a really cohesive unit in terms of the challenges, they are 3-0 now.
In the Rotu tribe, Kathy found shellfish for the tribe to eat, but they are put off by her drive to be the food gatherer, and confronted her (Gabriel was the one to do the talking). Kathy doesn't take this sort of thing well, but then she guilted the tribe to build some shelter from the rain. Then she was okay again. I hate this personality type (Kathy's). Robert was the weak link, was wuzzy from lack of food for a big guy. He say out of the reward challenge.
The Maraamu has a division of lazy vs the hardworking (Hunter/Gina/Patricia). Patricia was the bossy one for the past 3 days. Sarah was the lazy one, as well as Sean, who didn't like taking requests/orders from Hunter. Gina's pissed at the lazy ones.
In the reward challege (fishing gear - snorkel and mask), the tribes had to dump out the rocks from boats weighted down with them, and then dump the water out and make it to shore. Rotu killed Maraamu easily in this challenge.
In the immunity challenge, they all ate some nasty stuff, but at the end, it was a tie, so Neleh and Rob were selected to eat a bunch of the nasty meat stuff. Neleh looked like she was going to not be up to the challenge, but she got through. Rob was the big wuss and threw up what he tried to get down, this lost Maraamu the challenge.
When it was all said and done, the lazy ones outvoted the hard working ones, so Patricia got the boot over Sarah by a vote of 4 to 3. So now the lazy ones are in the driver's seat in the Maraamu tribe. This doesn't hold well for Gina, I fear, but we'll see.

Some of these MARQUESAS contestants are already making some pretty
FOOLISH moves so early on:
For Maraamu:
For Rotu
MAN, haven't any of these contestants learned ANYTHING from watching the previous SURVIVOR shows?

Well, the way it's going, none of the Rotu tribe are going anywhere unless they do the shake-up like last season.
I don't fault Rob one bit, if I could I'd be hanging with Sarah.

It's on Wednesday for at least the next two weeks because of the NCAA Tourney. Though honestly Wednesday is probably a better night for it, since it's only up agains Dateline, and leads into The Amazing Race, which would be good for that show.

Well, I see what I hated about the Weakest Link happening in the Maraamu tribe in the next couple weeks. Those four who voted for "moma" are obviously in control of who stays and goes now. Not that they have a real alliance yet, but it won't surprise me when they do. I'm sure Hunter will be near the top of their list of people to get rid of. He is obviously the strongest single competitor right now and I'll be pissed when these weak players vote him off.
I like looking at ladies as much as the next guy, but Sarah has got to go. She doesn't do anything and she doesn't mind telling everybody about it. I can't believe she actually said what she said at the Tribal Council.

Well, the changes regarding no food, water, or fire is good. But really on a lush island like that they'll have no problem getting food even if it means eating shellfish for the duration of the show. Fire wasn't much of a problem and their water is a thousand times better than Africa.
I still haven't seen much originality as far as the challenges. They only vary the food and races slightly.
And the people types are all too familiar. You have the people who do all the work...and complain about the other people who don't. The second category sit around and don't do anything. You have the bossy types that grate on everyone's nerves. You have the sexpot. You have the old and young divisions. The old usually get voted off first.

You have to remember, these people were picked for their personality defects. If everyone was "cognizant" of their flaws, well, Survivor would really be boring and "scripted" but as it is, we tune in to watch personality train-wrecks each and every week in order to see how back backstabbing can be done in this game and still come out not-so-stinky.
The Amazing Race will be shown on Monday nights in the 10 p.m. EST time slot, so the 11-2 punch of Survivor/The Amazing Race on Wednesdays won't happen.
This is the first Survivor that featured a young, buxom woman on the show (but I fear what'll happen once she starts losing weight but maintains the boobabe - provided she sticks around for the next few weeks), granted her personality isn't the most ideal, but the amount of eye candy she brings to the table is undeniable.

I was laughing at Rob...at least he finally got his precious "protein" he was whining about.
I'd like to see some of these Survivor contestants take a nutrition course before they go on the island. Maybe they'd be surprised to discove that plant foods actually contain protein. Heck, huge cows somehow manage to get all the protein they need from plant sources.

dasI feel the same about Wednesdays. There's absolutely nothing to watch except Combat Missions.

Look past the tits. Now, do y'all really think Sarah is attractive. I think her face looks like total ass. She is as plain as they come. And that growth on her lip is hideous.

Enterprise is repeats the next few weeks I think.
Jugs stays alive for another week.
Hopefully, Marammu can win some immunity challenges so Jugs can hang on for a few more weeks.

I was dissappointed at the lack of Sarah in a bikini shots in last nights show. I nkow her face isn't the greatest, but I wasn't looking at her face last week.
I also liked the vomiting shots during the eating contest.

I think some of you are being too harsh on Sarah's face. I think she's got a good looking face (just needs to be washed, and apply just a bit of make-up), and she's got really pretty lips, nice and full. She does need to get rid of those blonde streaks in her hair, just pick one hair color and go with it.
