Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Well in Vanuatu they make good points, and Eliza's is just funny. I'd watch it. It was a fairly decent season. Before the merge it was a bit boring IMO, but postmerge the game got interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Chris puts on an absolute spellbinder of a show during the second half of Vanuatu. Watch the season from Chris's point of view and pay close attention to the vote at F9. At F9, the game completely changes (I mean F9, not F7). Vanuatu is a good season to watch.

Janissary Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Chris was hilarious. He was wearing a wifebeater. Surrounded by women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strawman Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I liked Africa, Outback and China. Africa and Outback because after that they just kept doing like Islands and watery places and it got too similar for me. Haven't watched it in a long time though I used to be obsessed with it.

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Chris was one of my favorite winners. Without spoiling too much, the man knew how to work the jury very well. He's smarter than he looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Chris was one of my favorite winners. Without spoiling too much, the man knew how to work the jury very well. He's smarter than he looks. Chris's FTC performance is something I can only describe as "BULLSHIT UP TO YOUR EARS". On the Vanuatu DVD, they took a revote and Chris actually ends up winning that one 6-1. Guess who flips.

Caliban of Sycorax Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Wow, really? I wouldn't expect that. The thing is, the ones who voted for him Scout and Ami were the only ones who were able to see through his ruse. The others fell for him, or at least didn't like Twila enough.

frat_tastic Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 So I just finished Vanuatu last night, and it was a really good season. I wasn't disappointed. I liked the final tribal council a lot too, I didn't really feel like anyone was super butthurt over losing to the final two. Although I probably would've picked Twila to win (Scout and Ami were totally right in calling out Chris's COMPLETE bullshit the entire time), Chris was able to convince everyone else he was sincere so hats off to him. So what season should I watch next? Should I just hit up Palau next since I haven't seen that one yet? The whole military kind of theme bores me though.

Palau's decent if you want to see one of the best challenge dominaters of all time (the Koror War Machine) but as a season, I find it meh. About Vanuatu. When the DVD aired with the commentary, the jury did a revote. Apparently a fight broke out at some point. But the revote was 6 for Chris and 1 for Twila with Scout switching sides. Mind you, Scout was a female Chris. She was a HUGE jury threat since she was such a great bullshitter herself. Hope you enjoyed the storyline of "Chris gets screwed so he vows revenge".

I did enjoy Chris's whole revenge plot. And Scout was definitely a great bullshitter. I think she was probably even better at it than Chris because she seemed way more subtle about it (although maybe that was just the editing of the show). Do you know what the fight was about? I'm gonna have to see if I can find that somewhere, I'd like to see it for sure. Any season you'd recommend next if Palau is just meh?

Everyone hated her but respected her game a ton. I'd call her Sandra 2.0 if Chris didn't turn out to be such a good player. As for seasons that you want to watch... depends.

frat_tastic Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Ugh. I've wanted to watch it for a long time, but they don't have it on itunes. Eh, I'm sure I can find an alternative method to seeing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I'm sure I can find an alternative method to seeing it. Yeah. There is. In addition, this season teaches you to respect Fairplay. Sure he lied about his grandmother dying. But he was one of the best strategists known to play this game (and he followed Cesternino, mind you).

Life Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) I'm going to do a watch of PI. Been a long time since I've seen it. One of the best theme songs in Survivor history. Makes me want to be on Survivor so badly. Edited July 8, 2011 by Kitty Admiral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliban of Sycorax Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 One of the best theme songs in Survivor history. Right up there with Thailand, HVV, China, and All-Stars (even though this one is just a remix of the first seven, it's still really good) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darros Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'm pretty sure Colton lost every fan he may of had after that horrible terrible speech and that everyone on that island is an idiot. Seriously. Anyway, Colton needs to go ASAP. I'm predicting a tribal switch next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colton has been getting so much screen time though that I'm predicting he's gonna make it pretty far, he's definitely this season's major villain.
