    I’m going to miss Jill. She had such a nice quiet confidence – like a racehorse who keeps pace with the group until it’s time to forge ahead. Sadly, she didn’t get the chance.

    And Jeff – you forgot to mention that precious moment when Fabio actually proved that he indeed did know what a Freudian slip was. He may be goofy, but he ain’t stupid.

    Chase wins.
    NaOnka quits.
    This season sucks.

    spoiler alert

    Hate to say it, but this season is completely boring. Please choose players who will play a strategic game!

    Worst survivor season ever. How can so many supposedly ‘smart’ young tribes mates continually make stupid moves like keeping Dan around? You have to keep strong and get to the merge with ‘numbers’ and yet they cut off the power players. Idiots.

    Brenda smart? Naonka lite yes; smart; no. No where near the abilities that Parvoti brought to the game. She trips over her own ego.

      I’ve held back my opinion but it has to be said, these younger guys are stupid. They continue to eliminate players they don’t like instead of going after big threats, namely Marty. What are they waiting for? Marty keeps talking himself out of being voted out while Sash, Brenda, Fabio etc. thin out their numbers. Only Jane has the right idea here now that it’s everybody for themselves. Watch, those idiots are gonna keep voting out their own, Marty’s gonna keep them off balance until he gains some numbers back and takes the youngers down. Morons. This season sucks a big one.

    I think the players this season are the most boring people ever. And the nastiest, least sensitive. I only watch because I like Jeff Probst, but I HATE this season’s players. They are not interesting at all.

    my already high respect for russell’s game play is reaching new heights watching this season. marty truely doesn’t understand survivor. he has the idol. he has jill in his pocket in spite of his lack of respect for her loyalty as well as her benevolence with the idol. jill, by the way, seems awesome but is playing way too safe. she was blinded with the false belief that smarty marty is mister strategy. the new russell. from the beginning he appears to be something he’s not. a smart, strategic guy.

    here is the play he could have made to turn the tides of power in the game:

    first of all he confides with jill in all of his plans and treats her with respect. it’s ridiculous that he acts as if the idol is rightfully his and that he found it. i’m suprised that she doesn’t abandon ship. he’s such a buffoon.

    so he’s already planted seeds with fabio and has some trust. enter fabio.

    first, plant seeds of doubt in fabio’s mind about his alliance. jane has come in and taken his place. they are in strong with na’onka. they need her in the end. we over heard brenda and sash talking about fabio in particular. they didn’t want you to get past final 6 because you were too likable. you also were a threat physically. they do want to keep you for now but only for numbers. brenda says she has you wrapped around her finger. they were saying that they realize they will have to dispose of you as things get closer. make it believable.

    then marty explains the situation. you (fabio) are looking at jill and i against their 5 including yourself and saying it doesn’t add up. 5 against 2. it makes no sense for you to come to our side. even if you did, it still would be 4 vs 3. but surface looks are decieving. i have the idol. in their minds, this forces them to split their votes 3 to 2. so jill or i go home one way or another. we only have 2 votes so if the 3 has the idol, then a revote is cast and the 2 goes home on the second vote. in this scenario either jill or i will go home. but if we 3 voted brenda. that would be 3 votes brenda, and two votes each for jill and i because your vote goes to brenda. brenda the head of the snake, goes home, and you, fabio, the one that brenda calls stupid and doesn’t know what he’s doing out here, makes possibly the greatest power shifting move in all of survivor history. but does it still make sense. yes it does. we still have the idol and have the advantage in the tribe. if the merge happens, even better. we have dan, alina, benry and we can pull holly over who is a fence sitter. that’s 7 to 6. you are now the head of a very powerful alliance. this is really the only move for you right now to truely get further in the game. otherwise, you are a pawn and will not be respected. you eventually will be voted out.

    now play to his pride, which admittedly fabio seems unaffected by.

    did you watch a lot of survivor back home? think about the awesome plays and the stupid plays. how do you want to go down in the history of survivor? this move truely is in your best interest. strategically this furthers your chances of winning a million. furthermore, you will be respected for making a brilliantly bold and powerful move that changed the power center of the game.

    it doesn’t matter who they think are getting the 3 or 2 votes. it only matters that the 3 of us vote for brenda. if this happens she will go home. the only reason you need to talk to me is if they are putting all the votes on one or the other of us. in that case we still vote brenda but we make sure the one who they are voting for has the idol.

    if he’s unsure and waffling then you pull the idol out and tell him, if he does this, after brenda goes home, he gets a bonus. the idol.

    marty. you failed and you don’t deserve to continue much further in the game.

    Come on! Admit it…everyone pees in a pool at some point!

  • Amy

    Jeff!! A survivor with 10 australians and 10 americans! Pull some strings, pleeeeeeease

  • Kirk

    Listening to the interview EVERYTHING she said was to prove how everyone loved her and how excellently she played the game. Jill tried to make it seem as if she was either in control or was aware of every vote, alliance, and even Jeff Probst’s wardrobe. The instant she said Jimmy Johnson wanted to quit crystallized how every single word coming out of her mouth is a delusional thought from her narcissistic mind. I for one hope I never end up in the ER she is working.

    Could you Please have the Music turned down so that we can hear the words. There is no need for the music to be Soooo Loud!

    last weeks episode of naonca and holly, they both, decided to quit the survivor game in nicaragua.
    naonca and holly should be on the next plane home to the usa.
    since they decided to quit, they
    absolutely do not belong on the jury. since it does look like they are going to stay and be on the jury, my family has also decided not to watch any future episodes of survivor. we will certainly miss watching survivor series coming up. looks like survivor staff and station sponsers really need to make some changes to the show. esp., if someone volunteers to quit the survivor game. that person/s should be going home and have nothing more to do with the show. signed, b. meade

  • ILY Jeff!!!!

    I really want to see Parvati and Brenda together on survivor. I think Parvati might stay longer because she is not afraid to manipulate people. I wouldn’t call it manipulating cause “It’s just a game”
