SURVIVOR 3/28 - SPOILERS

I loved the challenge. Except for Desiree's screeching it was a lot of fun to watch, I always love those blindfolded ones with obstacles, and this one was fun (I like them to hit their heads, but not too hard) the puzzle made it even better.

Three tribes? Not so much. Could have been interesting, but it didn't work out that way. Nagini dominates. This has to end and I think it does because the season is supposedly so awesome.

No Ghost Island? Boooooo. Plus it could have evened up the tribe and made the vote interesting.

I liked James.

Libby being compared to Parvati (my second-favorite player ever)? No! Grrrrrrr.

Desiree leading a challenge with a puzzle when they already knew she's no good at puzzles? Duh. And that voice, make it stop!

Chris is insufferable. But the tribe is the "beneficicarorary" or whatever of his great athleticism so they better shut up and let him talk about himself incessantly.

@LoriLori, I posted the thread about a minute before you, but so there is not two this week, I deleted mine.

My comment was "that wasn't a very smart move on their parts".

Did they say why there was no Ghost Island? Is it done for the season?

I don't think Ghost Island is done for the season as there were still multiple clay thingies to break when the last player was there. My best guess is they had too much footage with the new tribes and decided they didn't need it this week. They may have sent someone and just not used the footage of the person going. You never know with shows that are taped and edited. As long as the person didn't get anything helpful, or chose not to take the risk, they may have just edited it all out.

Producers hate it when the players opt not to take the challenge offered to them. We saw that this past season on BB with the "Tree of Temptation." Paul told them not to take an apple so no one took an apple leaving production with four weeks of an unused prop. The last person on Ghost Island who had a chance to pick a prize, chose not to. They probably don't want multiple weeks of that happening. It tends to make for bad TV and they're paid to make good TV. If they sent someone and they opted not to take the prize, chances are they just got edited out.

We're to the stage of the game where getting out the big physical threats makes some sense, even if it does weaken your tribe as you know the tribe part ends pretty quickly. Getting rid of the Alphas at this stage of the game is really smart. If you don't, you can find seven or eight studs in that top ten and then the weaker players are in big trouble.

@DrKelli, @gardenman, Dalton Ross says there was no Ghost Island, they did not send anyone because there would not have been time for it in the show with the swap footage and he expects it back next week. Makes sense.

As I said last week, because there were several "no games" in a row at Ghost Island and because Probst says the urns were said up prior to the contestants arriving, I'm thinking they back-loaded the urns and there will be some great stuff coming.

As far as getting rid of physical threats, agree in general but Chris with his athleticism and that arm -- IMO no one is giving him the million so they would be wise to keep him around until the merge and maybe want to take him to the end.

@DrKelli, sorry about the thread. Lots of times I write it and it sits there while I whatever.

I think I would definitely take Chris to the end--I think he would garner 0 votes. I'm looking forward to next week.

I would take Chris (shut up) or Dom (oh it’s never my fault) to then end they are insufferable! I wondered about ghost island also. Why would Mololo get rid of strength? Sometimes I wonder if these contestants really watched the show! 😂😂😂

Regarding the urns, why are they all choosing them in order? It looks like it just says something like "choose/break an urn". When the first person chose the first one I wondered why, and now everyone is choosing the next one in line. I keep waiting for someone to smash a random one.

@VanSleepy, they have to choose them in order.

Does it say that somewhere? I guess I missed it. Thanks.
