Well, someone almost HAS to jump ship now but I think Rob is safe for another week or two!

I have a strong suspicion that Grant and Rob have a very secret alliance they are not telling anyone about. Rob is so shrewd that he would know to keep it even from Jeff P.

I bet the two eliminations last night were planned to shake up an otherwise boring game. I suppose many of the viewers are getting tired of watching one tribe get picked off one by one. The game should start getting VERY interesting now.

Why they didn't listen to Steve and start last night by using his vote and Ralph's vote to get rid of Rob is beyond me

Flip and work with Steve/Ralp to get Grant off, flip back use Philip (sense he's the least competive guy out there) vote Steve and Ralph off then they could off knock Philip out and BAM.....an all girl final.

And who else thought Phillip finding his shorts wasn't staged????

Starting to loose the appeal...

It has only been done once and that was in Survivor Fans Vs Favorites...Parvati formed the all girls aliance and won that Million...what a genius play on her part.

Because they are about as lazy as a group of kids can be and they think they are letting the guys do all the work as well as all the thinking. I do think they are trusting Rob to get them through the game though.

Me me me! Please Rob! get rid of the jerk! He isn't the least bit entertaining anymore.

Did anybody catch that promo they had on TV this week? Rob says something about 32 days of work down the drain.

There are a bunch of people on Redemption Island now. I'm wondering if they let that "tribe" somehow compete with the real tribe.

Something odd is gonna happen.

Oh, that would be interesting.

Nancy1999 · 04-30-2011, 11:45 AM

I assumed they would have the winner of Redemption island be one of the three remaining contestants that the jury will vote on. If Matt is in the final three, I think he'll win the overall vote. I think Rob has a good chance of beating anyone else, but not Matt. One mistake Rob hasn't made that so many contestants make, is showing other tribe members that he has the idol; this is usually done because they want to brag about it, but it almost always a mistake. Grant seems like a great guy, and after beating Rob in the challenge said, "I love you man," which I thought was so cool, but I wonder how Rob will deal with that, at some point they would have to turn on each other. These next few weeks are going to be very difficult for Rob, I think the girls might break away at this point and they need to if they want to show themselves to be a real survivor player.

I wondered what that was about too, but since it was a promo the could have cut out some of what he said....like IF this or that happens then that's 32 days of work down the drain. I have seen them do that a number of times.

I still think Rob can beat Matt if it comes to the final three. People love him but he hasn't played the whole game let alone helped anyone get to the end like Rob has.

Is anyone getting tired of Survivor yet? It seems to be getting stale. I wish that there was something to make it interesting again. I miss Russell.

julietravels · 05-05-2011, 12:36 PM

Thank goodness I am in a Survivor Pool and am still alive. This makes it interesting, even if the show isn't. I have to pick someone I think won't be voted out. Once I pick someone, I can't pick them again unless I get to the point that I have picked everyone and they are still safe. Sounds complicated, but it really isn't. I had picked everyone and was still safe and got a whole new clean slate until last night when I picked Phillip. I was worried, but he was safe and still am I. I can pick anyone this week except Phillip. I have to be careful not to pick someone I think will win, because I want to be able to pick them for the final episode. I am thinking that Rob, Grant, Matt or Mike will win. That means I want to choose between Natalie and Ashley as to who I think will be safe this week. I think I should pick Natalie because I expect either Ashley or Phillip to be voted out at tribal. What do you think?

blancla · 05-05-2011, 12:41 PM

I think it's going to be another one of the girls too. Probably the one that started crying last night after tribal. Who knows, but according to the previews, it looks like the girls and Phillip get into it big time.

You win the smart award. That's exactly what happened.

I think Rob's is going to be crushed if he gets voted off. He seemed like he was in tears last night just talking about how important it is to provide for his family.

As long as Phillip's around, I think Rob may sneak through another couple weeks by promising one person he's going to vote off Phil and then telling everyone else to blindside the victim.

I think Rob said she was his primary aliance. He won't let her go til he has to.

Do I get nice certificate like you made for Adie?

I was going to come on here and say "I was right" about 10 times but that would just be anticlimatic now!

Rob may sneak through? I think that is exactly what he will do EXCEPT I also think he almost decided to get rid of Phil last night. Remember him saying he didn't trust him? You could tell he was wavering a bit. That gave me the feeling that he suspects Phil isn't the dummy he wants everyone to think he is. Rob is good at reading people and I don't think he will have any problem getting any of the girls to blindside each other if he agrees to get rid of Phil. Hmmm.

LOL, you'd have to post a picture of your fannie for that!

I wonder how the ratings are for the show this year. I still look forward to it because I like Rob so much, but I could see how someone would get tired of it if they weren't big Rob fans.

julietravels · 05-05-2011, 01:32 PM

My husband and I just discussed who we think will win or be voted off. We think Rob still wants to go to the finals with Phillip and Natalie. Phillip is a freak and Natalie is a coattail rider. I think Rob is in control because he has told Grant, Phillip and Natalie that he is in an alliance with them. I think as soon as Rob can get rid of Grant, he will because Grant could win if he is in the finals. Ashley is nothing to Rob and he will send her packing. I think Rob is concerned about Redemption Island because the other tribe, who will be all of the jury members, will vote for their own tribemate to win if they are in the finale. I think Rob will win, and I hope so because he has played a great game. He has played, outlasted and survived.
