Survivor starts in two weeks

It's been a long summer, and I am so sick of politics. Here's some stuff to get you going.

After looking through the cast I'm (happily) surprised - a full half are out of their 20's (6 in their 30's and 4 over 40). No offense to 20-somethings but it's nice to see more than one or two with a little experience under their belts (or bikinis).

But not as a player. I like the idea of the challenge vs advantage.

if it is editing with randy, it's certainly fine editing at that. he is miserable and disrespectful and the things he says makes my skin crawl. just look at his "last" comments tonight. jerk till the end. the thing i wish was that sugar hadn't laughed. she should have contained herself as if it was all a big shock. building a fire without a match does in fact take skill. it's not as easy as you think. i just love bob, a nerdy mcgyver type. great season this year. has kept my interest all along. i have loved all the blindsided evictions and tonight was just icing on the cake. maryanne

I thought it was great. I was so glad that Elaine is not only personable and funny, but she's SMART too! I was so hoping she wouldn't fall for Ronnie's smooze, and she didn't. I was surprised by how many less than perfect bodies there were. Usually everybody is pretty fit, but the teams last night were downright normal looking. That immunity challenge looked brutal, especially that wall climb!! Did you see all the scrapes and bruises on them afterward? And that touchy guy, just gross IMO. Especially in this day and age, keep your friggin hands to yourself. I hope he gets the message. I actually kind of enjoyed Sandra and Rob, especially their comments whilst hidden away during tribal. Looking forward to next week.

I can't believe Natalie gave an idol to Sandra. What an idiot. Does she think Sandra will be loyal to her, save her?! NOPE. Ben, you spilled your guts. Wth??? These people are not playing like seasoned players, winners. Did you notice on the first challenge, fighting for the floatation ring in the water, Sandra never took a turn? Then in the next challenge, who sat out? Sandra! I wonder if they will say on the next challenge you can't sit out the same person 2 challenges in a row. She is just soooooo worthless, ugh. I don't know if I can keep watching, until she's voted out. Hopefully soon.

Judi, that video of the Amazing Race was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing. I have often tried to place myself in the contestant's shoes on both Survivor and AR and wonder how I would react in a situation. I don't think I could maintain my cool, unfortunately. I kept trying to get DH and our son to apply for the AR, I thought they would do great. My husband is definitely a Macguyver type who seemingly instinctively can figure out a way to do something the most efficient and easiest way and my son is sharp as a tack with a photographic memory and language skills. They were never too interested but now that hubs is retired......ha ha, he is probably not physically able to run around like that anymore. I know I'm not!

I can't believe they have him or SANDRA. Doesnt matter to me that they aren't competing. I truly don't know if I will be able to watch with Sandra on the show and that pisses me off! I'll absolutely give it a try, maybe record it and fast forward thru any part with her.

Why do you dislike Sandra so much? Didn't she win twice? I have picked out my favorites and least favorites from reading their bios. A lot of them certainly think they are "hot", ha ha. I will probably change my opinions once I see them live, but for know I love the 4th grade teacher. He seems like a good person. No to the TWO personal injury lawyers, yuck.

I, too, have an extreme aversion to Sandra. I simply do not understand how she won that show twice. I'm really debating whether or not I want to watch this season because of her, even though I know she is only an "advisor" and not a participant.

I don't have a problem with Boston Rob.

I am excited to see it. I would prefer not to see either of them again! They were not my favorites for sure.

I don't mind Boston Rob but also have an aversion to Sandra (how did she win twice??). I'll faithfully watch though, and hope this advisorship or mentoring is way in the background, let the players play!

Sandra was a pushy low end broad. IMO Boston Rob....he's nice, liked his wife Amber. I really was DONE with BOTH of them tho.

Wow. I hope this works!

Count me as another one who can't stand Sandra! Boston Rob was never my favorite either but he doesn't bother me like she does. How she won twice I'll never understand!

I am another who can't stand Sandra, not that fond of Boston Rob either. I will give it a try but if they spend a lot of camera time on those two, then I will not be watching.
