Survivor - Ghost Island starts tonight.

Good!

I cut the cable a couple months ago so this will be my first time having to watch it live with commercials in a long long time.

btulloh · « **Reply #3 on:** February 28, 2018, 05:39:27 PM »

Looking forward to it.

I can appreciate the cable cutting, but I don't think I could go back to watching commercials. Good luck with that.

Roxie · « **Reply #4 on:** February 28, 2018, 06:14:29 PM »

Thanks for the heads up.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #5 on:** February 28, 2018, 06:29:12 PM »

I'm going to try to watch from the start this time. Got in late on the last one but did get to see the finish. I hope this one is equally as interesting to follow.

Chuck White · « **Reply #6 on:** February 28, 2018, 07:57:06 PM »

Thanks Ron, I was wondering when it was going to start!

Just in time too!

Magicman · « **Reply #7 on:** February 28, 2018, 10:45:40 PM »

Looks like there are going to be some serious twists so it will be "game on".

I was kinda rooting for the the last kid that got bounced. I don't think we will miss that first girl atall

Looks like a decent group of people this time.

Survivor is my test case for cutting the microwave beam. Only one criterion matters WWW Will Wife Watch.

I’ve been trying various streaming services and comparing them to Dish Network our current service. It’s hard to beat an interface you know. Direct TV Now could not deliver, but they gave me a partial refund and I keep the Apple TV 4 on promotion . We have enough iStuff to make that work. It replaced an Apple TV 3.

We are trying YouTube TV they have Survivor, but it may have non-skippable commercials. You can supposedly yell “I want to watch Survivor in the living room” at Siri. We shall see. WWW.

Ron Wenrich · « **Reply #11 on:** March 01, 2018, 06:07:17 AM »

I've never had a cord to cut. We added streaming through a Roku a couple of years ago, and it works pretty good. I wanted it mainly for college football. We have Sling, and it gives a good signal. We also added Hulu, as they carry the Big Ten Network. Sling delivers a better signal, and is cheaper.

We still watch regular broadcasts. CBS is one that doesn't add many programs to Hulu. They're trying to sell access to their programs through their own site. I have found that there is usually a full episode on You Tube that you can watch for free.

I already have a favorite. The phys ed teacher, Brendan. When they lost the immunity challenge, he was the first to walk over and shake hands with the other team. I'm a sucker for good sportsmanship.

Cedarman · « **Reply #16 on:** March 08, 2018, 07:03:55 AM »

Would someone like to explain to me what happened last night?

Roxie · « **Reply #17 on:** March 09, 2018, 09:14:07 AM »

Morgan actually was responsible for sending for sending herself home.

Four purple team and four orange team were now in that tribe. The orange team decided they would vote Morgan, and all four struck to it. The purple team decided to vote Libby, and three of them did, except Morgan, who wanted Angela out because she was loyal to Chris (who is out on Ghost Island). So Morgan not following the plan, left only three votes for Libby, and the orange team victorious. It should have come down to a rock draw to see who left, but thanks to Morgan not doing the math, she paid the price.

I am so enjoying this whole group of Survivors!

Cedarman · « **Reply #18 on:** March 09, 2018, 11:47:25 AM »

Thank you, Roxie. So that's the bad decision.

Roxie · « **Reply #19 on:** March 09, 2018, 11:55:55 AM »

Fatal. Fatal decision. She still didn't get it and was looking back like she'd been deceived.

Outwit is the first rule of Survivor, but not yourself.

Usually, outwitting yourself is not a good approach. That applies to Survivor and to Real Life

Ya mean like the guy that joined the forum just to rant about a timberframe work shop and just got banned? He outwitted himself too.

I was working and missed last week, but I see that the tension, uncertainty, and emotions are still keeping most of them on edge. Some I don't even know why they are there to begin with.

Cedarman · « **Reply #24 on:** March 22, 2018, 08:13:53 AM »

Pretty predictable last night. Right one went home in my book. Chris sure impressed with his pitching abilities in the reward challenge. Did he ever miss? Why did no one hunt for an idol? At least they didn't show anyone hunting.

Magicman · « **Reply #25 on:** March 22, 2018, 08:52:41 AM »

I was on a job and missed the first 45 minutes of last night's episode. $:-\$

Ditto on the throwing. That was an impressive display. The guy had a absolute rifle for an arm. I don’t think he ever missed the target.

Magicman · « **Reply #27 on:** March 28, 2018, 08:10:39 PM »

We are under a Tornado Warning so our TV will be showing weather and not Survivor. $:-\$

Ron Wenrich · « **Reply #28 on:** March 29, 2018, 06:20:50 AM »

They're just showing a different version of Survivor.

Cedarman · « **Reply #29 on:** March 29, 2018, 07:28:39 AM »

MM, if your weather had as much drama as last night's survivor, you didn't have much weather.

WDH · « **Reply #30 on:** March 29, 2018, 07:41:37 AM »

A bit lame this year so far.

Magicman · « **Reply #31 on:** March 29, 2018, 08:18:59 AM »

Our weather warning ended at 7:45 (no tornado) so we got to watch the "tribal". We saw a tribe vote off one of it's stronger players so they will probably be back.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #32 on:** March 29, 2018, 08:23:30 AM »

I thought it was time for Denise to go. I thought James was pretty decent guy. No wonder they kicked him off.

Magicman · « **Reply #33 on:** April 04, 2018, 09:19:26 PM »

Since I missed all or most of the last two episodes I've missed some of the dramatics but I am still watching and enjoying. I see some surprises on the horizon.

Cedarman · « **Reply #34 on:** April 05, 2018, 07:42:42 AM »

Two idols and a double vote coming into play can cause a lot of chaos. Last night was a no brainer.
Who can keep their mouth shut about having idols? Loose lips gets votes imho.

Raider Bill · « **Reply #35 on:** April 12, 2018, 12:20:04 PM »

Glad to see Chris gone.

I am on the road sawing again and missed another episode. $:-\$

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #37 on:** April 12, 2018, 02:37:10 PM »

I will say the immunity challenge was pretty creative, very tough and I was very impressed by the way she won it especially with the wind blowing. I don't know who thinks these things up but they are pretty devious.

Chuck White · « **Reply #38 on:** April 12, 2018, 03:37:29 PM »

I just plain forgot that yesterday was Wednesday and therefore missed the show!

Ron Wenrich · « **Reply #39 on:** April 12, 2018, 04:55:02 PM »

I missed a couple of episodes and went to the CBS website and looked up Survivor. I think they'll let you get 3 episodes for free. I didn't pay anything for the 2 that I saw. You'll still have to watch some advertisements. $:-\$

No! Why Libby? Why? She didn't win challenges, or hunt for idols, or conspire to eliminate anyone. She got along with everyone, and she was adorable. Why?

DPatton · « **Reply #44 on:** April 18, 2018, 10:25:07 PM »

Wasn’t it Morgan who said don’t trust the pretty blond?

I would have been with Wendell on that eating challenge. No way I could have gotten any of that down.

Roxie · « **Reply #45 on:** April 19, 2018, 04:47:15 AM »

I can't even watch the eating challenges. That is just too gross.

Cedarman · « **Reply #46 on:** April 19, 2018, 07:07:53 AM »

I enjoy watching an idol well played. What does a sea slug taste like? I hope not to find out.
Libby didn't have a group to belong to. No one needed her.

Jeff · « **Reply #47 on:** April 19, 2018, 07:47:34 AM »

Since Chris is gone, I don't have a clear "get rid of them" person in my mind. Most series, I know who I want to stay and who I want to go.

WDH · « **Reply #48 on:** April 19, 2018, 03:40:20 PM »

I hated to see Libby go.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #49 on:** April 25, 2018, 09:01:44 PM »

I'm happy with tonight's vote. I figured Desi stirred up so much stuff folks were tired of her and it backfired. I thought they should have voted her off 3-4 episodes back when she messed up the puzzle completion for her team. I figure Michael is real happy but also figure his days are numbered.

Chuck White · « **Reply #50 on:** April 25, 2018, 09:43:33 PM »

I agree, she just got too mouthy, especially at Tribal!

Magicman · « **Reply #51 on:** April 25, 2018, 10:19:08 PM »

I was on the road and missed the past two weeks episodes, so I was happy to get to watch this one tonight. I have no favorites left so I'll just watch and enjoy.

WDH · « **Reply #52 on:** April 26, 2018, 07:03:00 AM »

She made her move way too early

Since I have missed at least three episodes I have no favorites or even expectations. I am just watching and enjoying. I see that paranoia is alive and well.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #54 on:** May 03, 2018, 09:25:31 AM »

I forgot it was on till about 15 minutes after it went off. Next week does not look good either. Will be real different look by time I do see one.

Papa1stuff · « **Reply #55 on:** May 03, 2018, 04:16:24 PM »

It can be watched on CBS

Cedarman · « **Reply #56 on:** May 04, 2018, 09:47:58 AM »

Donathan just saw his tenure shortened by one week by playing his idol. Will he be the next to go?

DPatton · « **Reply #57 on:** May 04, 2018, 10:25:41 AM »

Although Donathan is not one of my favorites this season, I was sure glad to see he didn't fall victim to Jenna's evil plot. Serves her right to get voted out.

Jeff · « **Reply #58 on:** May 04, 2018, 11:33:10 AM »

Two good flippers could splash cold water on someone's survivor plans next week. Watch two of the women dance. Are they hearing the fat lady sing for them?

Dom turned out to be a better player than I first thought he would be.

Raider Bill · « **Reply #64 on:** May 10, 2018, 08:20:44 AM »

Donathan and Laurel kept their loyalties and promise.

Magicman · « **Reply #65 on:** May 17, 2018, 07:35:19 AM »

I guess that it is being edited in such a way that who knows what is happening behind the scenes. Anyway, I am enjoying this series and I have no predictions or favorite.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #66 on:** May 17, 2018, 09:14:16 AM »

I was happy seeing Laurel stay in. She seems pretty decent and a good player. I am surprised Donathon has survived this long but I think he almost blew it this time. I believe everybody thought he was no threat before so never worried about him. I thought Wendel was very classy about losing the immunity even though he finished first. Both he and Laurel are to be commended for the way they handled that I think. Hated to see Kelyn (?) go. I thought she was pretty classy - I'd have booted Dom off instead.

Dom turned out to be a better player than I first thought he would be.

When Donathan told Wendel that he would vote for Dom when he was in the jury, he was saying what I've been thinking for weeks now. Dom has had a consistent game and been on top in his tribe from day one. Every player left is and has been riding his coattails. Why haven't they gone after him? They acted like it would be a bold move to vote Wendel out? Why not Dom? He didn't have immunity and Donathan was the only one brave and contrary enough to write Dom's name in the tribal council vote.
Desiree attempted a mutiny weeks ago and ended up on the jury. I look for Donathan to be joining her before the women left get the boot. This season is putting me to sleep it's been so boring and predictable.

Ron Wenrich · « **Reply #68 on:** May 17, 2018, 11:35:17 AM »

I believe both Wendel and Dom both have immunity idols.

Next week should be interesting.

I guess that we will have a 2 hour finale this coming Wednesday the 23rd.

WV Sawmiller · « **Reply #71 on:** May 23, 2018, 10:34:44 PM »

Wow! What a finish. I was actually rooting for Laurel. I was impressed when Dom discussed giving up the final immunity idol and trying to knock out Wendal in the fire making and would love to have seen him do that but he wimped out and it cost him. Great finish.

Chuck White · « **Reply #72 on:** May 23, 2018, 10:49:45 PM »

I kinda thought that Dom had it in the bag, what a surprise when Wendell got it, and Laurel didn't get any votes!

Cedarman · « **Reply #73 on:** May 24, 2018, 06:40:20 AM »

A very well played game. I remember Wendell graciously conceding an immunity challenge to Laurel when he didn't holler for Jeff. I remember at the time thinking this could be important and it was.
An enjoyable evening.

WDH · « **Reply #74 on:** May 24, 2018, 07:06:38 AM »

I guess Dom did not think about the possibility of a tie. If he had brought Angela, she would have voted for him in the event of a tie. But, then again, there would not have been a tie had Laurel been on the jury and voted for Wendell as a jurist. A very interesting ending.

Magicman · « **Reply #75 on:** May 24, 2018, 07:40:14 AM »

I missed the first half but wow, what an ending. I had no favorite but it was a very good series.

Raider Bill · « **Reply #76 on:** May 24, 2018, 08:12:26 AM »

I was hoping for Laurel but felt Wendall would win.

Jeff · « **Reply #77 on:** May 24, 2018, 09:11:55 AM »

I was impressed with how this season's contestants conducted themselves. Especially after tribals. For the most part, very good sports.

Yes, quite a bit of class.
