Survivor South Pacific - Episode 12

[dr.strangelove]

So Edna is out and Coach's five actually made it to the Final Five. I give them credit for sticking together. Now lets see how good they really are as players.

Last night's episode was predictable, but still fun. I loved the awkward Cochran cuddling up next to Ozzy on redemption.
I also love edna for making a play at staying. It was too little too late, but it was good. She put all her eggs in the coach basket awhile back, which was a mistake. I am starting to see Coach's game better. He wants to try the final four beign the best players. I suspect he will go with Albert and Sophie, say to the jury that they were the core on the alliance and ask them to vote for the best one. If Ozzy makes it back, I suspect he would want Albert with them. Its a terrible play, but certainly in Coach's style.

Gotta give soem love to cochran. He was a terrible player and very annoying, but he gave Ozzy a run in that duel. I was hoping he would win, but so long cochran.

So we had the tear-jerker family visit. I have grown to hate this episode. In season one, when they got the letters from home and Jenna did not get one, they struck gold. they have never been able to repeat that. I'm not surprises that Brandon's dad is just as cocky and demanding as his brother. I feel badly for brandon, he lost the genetic lottery. that said, he has made his own terrible decisions and deserves to go. That dig at Edna was so uncalled for.

I hope they post cochran's arrival with the other jurors.

1. I hate the tearful family reunion episode too...Really? They're playing a game for chrissake....

...it's not like they're on active duty or going on their twelfth deployment...

"It's so hard..."...oh grow up for fuck's sake...you're playing for a million dollars not living in Somalia, anytime you wanted to go home, you could just quit...

*ahem*

Anyway, glad the Ozz-meister beat the most annoying contestant in recent memory...Edna waited too long to play her hand (not that she really had one other than the "I'm Coach's Handservant" ploy...) but looks as though she's going to beat Ozzy at redemption island this week...I hope not, but if she does that won't change a thing as she'll just get voted straight out again...

I think Coach wants Brandon to go with him to the final three, possibly with Rick, if he takes Albert or Sophie he might lose...

With the exception of Ozzy I can think of no-one, save Sophie, that I want to see win this thing...I will be pissed if Ozzy doesn't make it especially it Coach pulls it off, but I still want to see Brandon go mental when he finds out Coach has been playing him all along....

Overall I'd have to give this season a 'Meh'....I hope that we are done with returning "stars" for the next series, otherwise i am going to have a difficult time giving a damn...

Go Ozzy!!!
