Survivor!

For those of you who do not know me personally I’m a Survivor nut! I love everything there is about the show (especially Jeff Probst) and have watched every season since the first were Richard Hatch could never keep his clothes on.

So I’ve decided to start writing about some of my favorite shows and I thought why not start with Survivor. I know the season is almost over but better late than never…right?

This Thursdays (December 10th) episode of Survivor will have *spoiler alert* a double elimination so I’d like to take a look at the remaining contestants.

Brett – Up until a couple of episodes ago I didn’t even know who Brett was. He’s been in the background so much that he’s rarely shown and when he is it’s usually to be told what the plan is for voting and how he should follow along. While I don’t think he’s in jeopardy of being voted out this week I do think the former Foa Foa needs to take him out soon. The current jury seems like a bitter one and if one of the former Galu members makes it to the finals they will most likely vote for them out of spite.

Dave – I think Dave’s time is almost up. In reality I think he should have gone last week to keep Shambo from switching back to Galu. This week the Foa Foa members will most likely have to give a vote to someone Shambo wants gone in order to keep her voting their way.

Jaison – I like Jaison a lot and I hope he makes it to the finals (which I think is very possible). However I’d like to see him step up his game play this week. Yes he won immunity last week but he really didn’t need to and now he may have a target on his back for posing a physical threat. He was the only Foa Foa member to be smart enough to predict Shambo’s feelings being hurt from voting John out although he wasn’t able to convince his alliance to vote that way. I think he’ll be fine for this week but he may have something to worry about next week.

Mick – Wow has Mick been a disappointment to me. He’s hot and looks like he’s physically fit but he’s barely registered at challenges. Does anyone have the feeling he’s purposly doing that? When it comes to the Foa Foa members I believe Russell will get rid of Mick before Jaison and I really don’t see Mick making it to the finals. I feel like he’ll be safe this week unless he mouths off too much about Russell like he has in the previews. If this season has taught us anything it’s that if Russell finds you a direct threat…you are gone. Mick better watch out!

Monica – I really want Monica gone! For some reason I haven’t been able to stand her from the beginning. She could certainly go home this week especially since there is a double elimination but I think Dave will go before her. Once Dave is gone I have a feeling she’ll be the next one on the chopping block.

Natalie – Natalie has surprised me this season. I really thought she would have been gone by now but it seems like Russell was her around. She’s shown some decent game play (helping to get rid of Erik) and she did very well at this past weeks immunity challenge. I have a feeling she might be in the final 2.

Russell – By far my favorite player! It’s amazing because at first I couldn’t stand the guy. I wanted him gone ASAP but then he turned into a great player (by far the best player this season). I really don’t think he’s in jeopardy of going this week and I do think he might make the finals. However, I don’t think he’ll win even though he deserves it. This jury is bitter and they won’t be able to admit that he outplayed them.

Shambo – Shambo has certainly been played by everyone this season. I don’t mind her too much (she seems like a nice enough person) but her time in the game seems to be coming to a close. Although I do think everyone should keep her around in order to take her to the finals. I don’t think she could beat anyone (even Russell). She’s going to be bitter after the John vote and it should be interesting to see how she reacts back at camp. I believe Russell will try to calm her down and get her to stay with Foa Foa but if she gives him an ounce of doubt I think she’ll be gone this week. Foa Foa will still have the numbers without her.
