i think he just went to get exposure and had no intention of staying, maybe he figured he had no chance, so didn't want to hang around to not win

seems like a cameo to me

I dunno I think that may have been the plan, but I kind of also think that maybe his plan backfired somewhat too on him.

The whole thing didnt make much sense, he talked about making money to help with the life his kid would have then the next thing you know he wants to leave.

I agree with you. This video of him getting owned still cracks me up.

Yao Man face-planted him into one of the boats last night too. Even skinny old guys can beat up Johnny.

i can't tell if he planned that and basically just did a cameo or what

he knew he had no chance of getting far. Now he gets an all-expenses paid vacation in Micronesia for 39 days.

I think it backfired on him. There were six votes for him, so that means Eliza's crew of four, Celia? (the black girl) AND either Amanda/Ozzy/Parvati/James also voted for him, which means they broke their pact with him. The show usually would have something hinting to this but it didn't.

I never saw his season, but Yau-man's tackle in the beginning was glorious. Half his age, I like him already. I abhor Parvati's playstyle, but it looks like Amanda is doing the same thing, whom I thought was smarter than that.

One thing that was interesting is that there were no votes called out for Eliza, so she is in the dark on them wanting to vote her out (even though Jonny mentioned it, it still might make her put her guard down).

Haven't been watching the whole season, just joined tonight so go easy. :confused:

Is this the first time people have screwed on Survivor?

In addition to Ozzie and Amanda, did Parvati and James also get it on?

I'm not sure either party did the deed yet. Making out is a long way from actual sex.

Mary has one kick-ass body!
Yes, and I will miss it dearly.:(

Its a toss up but id take Parvati over Amanda. However Julie from i forget what season is still the hottest. I wonder if Jeff and her are still together.

I noticed that too, and Joel's really starting to surprise me. I figured he would be all brawn and no brain (especially after the comment he made about James in the first episode), but something is definitely going on in that head of his.

yeah, i think joel might be a really good player after that move, he tricked mikey and can "honestly" say he didn't vote for mary, so he doesn't have to lie , he can pretend he has no idea what happened, and the people he told to vote off mary don't know he didn't go along

What the hell is up with Cirie. Does she think that the two couples would vote for one of them off before her? Yau man wasn't even that big a threat.. she'll never surivive the merge once the fans find out she lead the charge on Yau.

The two groups of 4 should have agreed and voted off that bitch Cirie to make it a true 4-against-4 game.

Yau-Man - was the best puzzle solver in the game.

I'm still rooting for Jonathan. I like his logical approach.

i agree on cirie, the logical thing to do was to get rid of the swing voter. she thinks too much of herself

johnathan is a good player

Cirie made the best move for her. She stands a much better chance of getting further in the game with Parvati & Amanda, than she ever would with Jonathan's group. She's got no problem making it to the merge now.

she'll never surivive the merge once the fans find out she lead the charge on Yau.
Why do you say that? It's far too early to say what will happen once they merge, but the team who has the most members will eat the other side alive. What Cirie did won't change that.

Can't believe how lazy that woman that Ozzy was with on exile island. Didn't even want to try and look for it.
