Samoa

[SudokuGal]

Well, Big Brother is about to wrap up...and Survivor is on the horizon. I'm so excited to see Samoa via Survivor; I've always wanted to go there.

This morning I started looking at the introductory videos of the cast...takes a little while to get through them. So far, I'm liking Marisa the best. Of course, that could be because she is a homestate gal (not too far from where I grew up).

Also kind of like the Rocket Scientist...he's sooooooo cute...but just a little on the cocky side. (I want to know from our own rocket scientist if her group has cuties like this one...if yes, I want to visit)

Anyone else a Survivor fan? Looked at any of the videos yet?

Sorry - I don't watch the show, so I can't speak about your guy. There are some handsome fellas around my work, but they're all young enough to be my children. Sorta lends a yuk factor to the whole thing.

Surprisingly, not many of the astronauts are the drop-dead college football hunks you'd imagine. They are very fit, and of course brilliant, but they pretty much look your brother. Most of them are pretty cool, though, and act like normal people. Well, except for one or two. You know who I mean.....

I can't wait for Survivor to start. I'll have to take a look at the videos tomorrow, but from what I've seen on the commercials it could shape up to be an interesting season.

Sudoku - I'm not a Survivor fan with Ya. My mom is though. However, I am waiting on my reg fall line-up to start. Can NOT wait for Grey's Anatomy to come back on. Ok. Back to the regularly scheduled Survivor program.

Well, yes...the one that is going to be on Survivor is young enough to be my child, but I'm sure going to enjoy looking at him.

Good, glad to see I'll have at least one person to chat with about the show.

Every time I read the title of this read I read samosas and then realize it's just samoa, guess that tells you where my head is at lol.

 

[SudokuGal]

That's ok; we all seem to have brain farts, lol. The other day a newbie posted. I thought the nickname was NancyXXXX and welcomed HER to the forum and invited her to join the Women's Room. Of course, it was AFTER I posted that I read the nic correctly: NandyXXX, and the person is a male <sigh>.

 

[Kimerpuff]

We watched last year and prolly will this year again..

I sure hope they have another person like coach, I loved to hate him LOL

 

[SudokuGal]

I'm so ready for it to start! It and Amazing Race (although I usually record AR so I can fast forward through some of it).

 

[Moonflame]

Did you guys see the guy who is lying about being in New Orleans when Katrina hit and dealing with the flooding and such. I think we'll have a slimeball to hate. Can't wait until Thursday to see the new bunch of players and see what surprises Survivor has for us this year.

 

[Kimerpuff]

OH! I just watched that.... poor rocky? jerk! LOL this is gonna be a good year I think hehe

 

[SudokuGal]

Ok, I was hoping the promos about Russell would be him "kidding" but he does seem to be a true jerk. Sadly, Marissa (my fav after reading the bios) was the first to go. I've always wished they gave them a little more time before the first tribal council...it just seems so early to throwing someone off before they'd have a chance to get know each other a little bit better.

 

[Kimerpuff]

oh Russel is the new coach! hehe I am going to enjoy when he gets voted out!!!
his dumb women alliance.. OMG!!! and old lady alliance? I felt bad for Marissa, and was wishing mr multi millionare would have gotten the boot, but then where would the drama be.

 

[Moonflame]

I'm torn between want them to catch Russel and get rid of him, and wanting to see him stick around a while to see what else he'll pull since it's so much fun to have someone to hate. I just don't understand demoralizing your team when it's still a team effort. That would make much more sense after the merge when it's a fight for yourself game. It just doesn't make good game sense to me.

 

[SudokuGal]

Well, Russell seems to be an ego-manic and since he doesn't need the money he is just there for himself. I prefer my "villans" to be more subtle and not so nasty.

 

[Moonflame]

And is it just me, or does he have Charles Manson eyes? I can't believe anyone trusts him, the look in his eyes most of the time creeps me out.

 

[Kimerpuff]

he does have beedy little eyes doesnt he! they should just find a flood.. stick him on a roof for two days and film it! *grin*

 

[SudokuGal]

Well, that poor team will be decimated in no time at all. I felt bad for Mike...but don't they give those folks a physical before hand to see what kind of shape they're in???

I would have preferred Ben to go home instead of Betsy.

 

[Kimerpuff]

I am a bit suprised they went after Betsy.. they pretty much lost the chance at the fishing stuff due to Ben tripping the rival tribe guy. One question we wondered about, last year the guy with the bug bite that went home, because medical pulled him the tribe didnt have to boot anyone that night. So why did they have to boot a person if Mike went home?
