Survivor 14 - Page 11

Well, it's too late for all that for this group, that's for sure.

I like any rule shake-up that knocks the contestants out of their complacency. It seems like contestants go in with their plan because they know what to expect from watching it for umpteen seasons. I'm all for their plans and manipulations and alliances getting a little upheaval.

I'm still finding myself rooting for Earl or Yao-man, but losing Michelle was definitely a strategic blow. They will not be happy when the tribal counsel group returns. Dreamz is going to make things interesting when he spills the beans.

So far, I really think Yao is playing the strongest game. First to win the idol, devilish replacement of said idol with a fake, did fantastic at the last immunity challenge and pretty darn good at this weeks as well. And, nobody would want to face him in a firebuilding challenge. Of course, at some point he is going to be viewed as a threat and ganged up on, unless he continues to stay way under the radar, which he is done pretty well at thus far.

Interesting stuff going on.

FYI, it's spelled Yau-Man.

Too bad Earl has lost one of his closest allies.

Yeah, that puts Earl and Yau-Man quite a bit in jeopardy. But the fallout from Dreamz spilling the immunity beans could change that dramatically.

Yau-Man is really the only thing (besides the recent twist) that I have really enjoyed this season.

Just resurrecting an stagnant thread. Lots has happened in the last couple of weeks.

I really though Yau-Man might be going home last week and was surprised when they showed the votes at the end and it was unanimous. Still, I think he would be better served by not discussing his strategy openly, even among those in his alliance. Eventually, those are going to be his opponents.

Can I say how thoroughly I've enjoyed seeing Mookie and Alex get the boot. Their last few antics were quite entertaining, especially when they thought they were going to stick a dagger in Yau-Man by telling the tribe that he had the idol, only to find that nobody cared about said idol, only that they were going through his personal belongings. Talk about a backfire and he played it perfectly.

I'm still rooting for either Yau or Earl. At this point, I think they have played the game very well. If they are up against each other, though, that could be a tough decision.

Early reminder, new episode Thursday, and then finale on Sunday, Mother's Day.

Meh'. I guess I would have felt differently if I actually cared about any of those who are left. Now I can go to bed early and not feel like I HAVe to wait up to see who wins.
