survivor heroes vs villains
The Survivor finale should be red hot; but after a series of emotionally gripping episodes last night’s show was underwhelming. It was the calm before the storm or, if you prefer, the elipsiis before the exclamation mark.
Russell turned on Rupert so quickly I initially believed I had missed something. It was only after rewatching the episode that I realized Russell simply changes allies without much provocation. Presumably Rupert is another jury vote he won’t be able to count on if he makes it to the end.
I wonder if Russell could have voted Parvati out if she hadn’t won immunity. I now assume Russell and Parvati will go to the end together after all. If their alliance can survive Danielle, it can survive anything. But if Russell had any sense at all he would get rid of Parvati at the first opportunity, and so would everyone else. Parvati grows closer to unstoppable by the day.
The Palm Pre product placement was classic Survivor camp comedy. Parvati was apparently angling for a role in Palm Pre commercials, or perhaps just a free Palm Pre. Given that spoilers about this season hit the Internet before it had finished filming I was left wondering: Did Parvati have a little too much fun with the web browser?
Colby’s argument with his brother was the highlight of the episode. No one can get under your skin quite like family. He later dropped out of the immunity challenge after mere seconds. His decline continues to dumbfound me.
Russell’s wife was endearing. She wanted to add weight to the bucket so she spit in it. What, did you picture Russell marying a wallflower? She wrung her hair and seemed very competitive. I was happy for Jerri, who has made foolish moves in the game but always shows such lovable vulnerability. But it was fun to imagine Melanie competing on a future season as a way of building the Hantz legacy.
I was glad that Sandra got to see her uncle. Family becomes pretty important when your loved ones are in Afghanistan. The Blow Hole location was a fun one, and I’m surprised Survivor took this long to use it.
Rupert had plenty to say in our interview today. He was in full Rupert form. If you are a fan of Rupert’s, you need to listen to this interview.
He is the only guy who made it on Survivor for 100 days, joining Parvati and Amanda.
He said that people were annoyed with him because he would stop people from blaming others. He tried to make people look at themselves and some people don’t like that. Stephanie would blame everyone else but herself after challenges.
He figured that for Russell to be put into the top 5 villains after one season, he must be like Johnny Fairplay, but 10 times worse, “and he is”.
About that chopping wood that Jerri complained about? “I spent maybe 30 minutes chopping wood. Jerri just needed someone to complain about and I was that person.”
Did he keep the weight off? “I dropped 30 pounds during the game, then gained 35 pounds back on in 6 days. Now, I’m back down to about 215.”
