11/20 - Survivor 39 Show Discussion

Elaine and Noura win immunity, as they spin the ball the longest. But Noura could have won PB&J for her team if she'd just kept going -- instead she hopped off thinking she was done. Her tribe has to go to tribal first and vote someone off, then the other team goes.

Elaine's funny, saying it was a redneck game and she was thrilled she won something considering she's on a tribe w/so many athletes.

So if Karishma plays her idol, I wonder who will go home from that team?
On the other team, I bet it will be Janet, because they won't vote Dan off, right? Grr.

Aaron and Missy get sent to jury. One week after both had immunity necklaces around their necks!

" You need to kill Elaine slowly and methodically"

Really Missy, that's how you leave the game. Frankly I'm glad to see the back of you, and Aaron!! Last week was uncomfortable to watch, tonight,   not so much. Karma is a wonderful thing.
I thought they were supposed  to leave immediately,  not find out who voted for you, then instruct your buddy on her game play.
I'm glad Karisma found an idol,  she knew Missy was only talking with her, for her vote
Janet survives, and Elaine is a sweetheart.

Can we know for sure that the medics did not check out Karishma? Her cameraman would know the truth about it, so maybe her insisting she didn't really need to see someone was enough?

Missy was absolutely right about the two African Americans winning immunity, but after Cook Islands, Jeff is the last person who should be talkings about race.

The one and only thing I was really hoping for out of last nights episode was for Janet to Survive the double boot.  Her social game is what ultimately kept her in the game and I couldn't be more thrilled for her. I know it had to be hard for her to go up to Dan and agree to work with him going forward, but she did what she had to do.  I just have so much love and respect for that woman. 

I've never been a fan of this demerge twist because I feel like it defeats the whole purpose of the merge. Though i was fine with Aaron and Missy leaving, as they were both two obvious big threats to win I would have rather seen them get the boot with all of the numbers. Because what happens now is that you have people still left in the game who didn't have to vote out Missy or Aaron so ultimately Aaron and Missy have no reason to feel betrayed by them. And to me that's just not fair. But i would have been more upset if Janet went home over the twist so im glad that didnt happen.

As far as Karishma goes I never really viewed her as a goat personally I thought she was only seen to be a goat because she was bad at challenges, but in all honestly she's playing a similar game to Sandra. Sandra was never good at challenges, she just had this as long as its not me type attitude and Karishma seems to have a similar attitude when it comes to the vote.  I'm glad she found an idol I just hope that she plays it correctly because the facial expressions of the jury are going to be priceless if and when that happens. 

I assume they are out of ideas for Island of the Idols at this point because I always forget about Rob and Sandra until tribal.  It is very frustrating that Dan is still there and I  havent forgotten what happened last week but it was nice to watch last night at what felt like a normal Survivor episode. 

I have to disagree about Karishma being like Sandra. They are nothing alike. Sandra had a good social game & contributed around camp, whereas Karishma isolates herself from everyone, is lazy, & cries “woe is me” about everything. Such a complainer.  

Now that she found an idol, she’s suddenly mighty full of herself. She is the last person I would want to find an idol. Can’t stand her or her attitude. Everyone probably wants to drag her to the end because she wouldn’t get any votes, but I don’t want her to get $50k for coming in second (or is it F3 this year? It seems to change without a pattern). What does 3rd place get?  Regardless, I want people in the F2/F3 who really played the game. Karishma has done diddly squat. 

Well, Missy does comes across as if her opinion is the only way, the right way and if you don't follow her you are stupid. She comes across very aggressive and dismissive especially when dealing with Karishma.

I am happy both Aaron and Missy are gone, but kinda wish Tommy went to. Dean comes across as a weasel with his commentary, no loyalty and reversing himself on his voting. mmmm....only three guys left, Dean, Dan, and Tommy. Are they physical threats?

Luv how many people want Karishma to go with them to the final tribal council as they all think that will garantee them the win. It does guarantee Kgirl second place.

I did want Kgirl to shove those coconuts she found down Noura's throat. Noura is annoying.

I think she's a lot of princess  why she applied for this show  is beyond me. Is she even a fan of the game, she's a lazy so and so.!

I don't like how so many episodes of Survivor this season have turned into afterschool specials. We've had lessons on bullying, racism, arranged marriages, inappropriate touching. Can we just get back to playing Survivor without making every tribal council a teachable moment??
