S40.E07: We're in the Majors LIVE CHAT

[Whimsy]

Quote

Some winners sprint their way to an opportunity to gain an edge over the other castaways. One tribe employs a different strategy in a rigorous immunity challenge.

Original airdate 3/25/20

This is your LIVE CHAT thread.

[Lantern7]

Oh, right. Two insane Councils last week.

[LadyChatts]

I'm fine watching EOE.  To heck with everyone left in the game lol

 

[Lady Calypso]

Heh, Rob pointing out that Sandra's move on giving up an idol to someone else is uncharacteristic.

[Daisy]

hahahaa Parvarti - 
"Sandra being here is a small consolation."

Rob "+ Amber "Why did you give Denise all that power"

Me: RIGHT?!

 

[LadyChatts]

Dang, Sandra isn't wasting any time quitting.  

I wish she had waited until the jury phase.  

[Lady Calypso]

Ah, so Sandra decides to peace out because she's done and knows she can't win her way back in, so why wait another 20ish days?

[Straycat80]

Yeah, Sandra you got bit in the butt. And she’s not staying. I don’t blame her, she can’t do anything physically challenging. 

[LadyChatts]

Her parting words: "Get Denise for me."  

 

[Daisy]

Wow.... Sandra is quitting?  😞
this double sucks. 

Still no Sandra Jury performance. 
(I get her reasoning though. but dang)

Sandra says "screw it" and walks.

[Lantern7]

Great. All the crap I got, and now I gotta read through an infinite amount of “Sandra sucks” for the next few months.

[truthaboutluv]

I agree Yul. Totally unnecessary.

[vb68]

Sandra leaves as a true Queen.

After her glee at not participating in challenges there is no shock or sadness here . I still ❤️Yul

[LadyChatts]

Yul said that Wendell got into it with Parvati, which wasn't necessary.  I agree.  Also agree with his point that Wendell created a lot of drama for no reason.

I'm really not liking Wendell this season.  

[Lady Calypso]

Michele vs Wendell is so damn awkward.

[LadyChatts]

Five minutes in and already drama between Michele and Wendell.  

I do think it's Michele bringing the drama out here.  I don't know what Wendell did, but Michele needs to let it go.

[Lantern7]

Seriously, Sandra, didn’t you think of the fans?!?

I mean, I understand the move, but she’s now subject to be on the same list as the likes of Osten and Naonka.

Edited March 26, 2020 by Lantern7

[Lady Calypso]

Wow, Michele actually gave Wendell one of her fire tokens.

[vb68]

Certainly doesn't seem like Wendell is long for the game.

That said Michelle still irks me.

[PaperTree]

Wendell is not helping himself.

EoE looks really boring.

[Lady Calypso]

Camera guy, MOVE AWAY FROM PEOPLE'S FACES. I do not need to see Ethan's irises. 

[Whimsy]

I get to join in on the live chat this week!  I usually work my part-time job on Wednesday nights, but it’s closed due to COVID-19. 
 

both Michelle and Wendall are bugging me.

And she acknowledged it in her day after video. That she went against the strategy that had always worked for her. That as long as it wasn't her, she was fine. And the fact is she knew the votes were going for Denise, she wasn't in danger and so she should have just laid low and let it play out.

Same.  I think being around each other has been toxic for both of them, but I think Wendell would be just fine if Michele didn't seem to have a stick up her butt.  Like I said, I don't know what happened between them, but I hope one of them is voted off soon.  I'd prefer Michele, but don't care if its Wendell at this point.

I disagree. I thought she was very calm and rational and she was probably right that Extinction was not for her. She also right that she has nothing left to prove. 

[Straycat80]

Hang in there Ethan! 

[truthaboutluv]

Aww, poor Ethan.

[Kerri]

I don't put Sandra in the same category as someone like Naonka. She was voted out. Honestly there should be no EOE.

[LadyChatts]

Scramble for fire tokens on EOE!

[PaperTree]

Don't waste your rice!

[LadyChatts]

Tyson that fire token was out in plain site.  You aren't amazing for that.  Remember, you got blindsided.

[truthaboutluv]

Um did Amber even bother running off?

[CletusMusashi]

This isn't a challenge. It's an Easter egg hunt.

[Lady Calypso]

So, Rob finds three out of four fire tokens LOL.

[vb68]

Heh, they may be bros in real life, but Tyson likes to get his digs in at Rob.

"He's a portly dude."

[LadyChatts]

So Tyson got one, Rob got three.  Guess we know whose amazing now.

This must be a dull episode tonight since we've had more EOE so far.

[Lantern7]

Rob got three fire tokens. Yaaaaaaaaaay.

Honestly, while I know everything is on the up-and-up, I can’t get rid of the image of a cameraman leading Rob to each token.

In my world (and i'd be consistent on this). if you're on like "Standby Island" if you decide to leave, that's not quitting because there's no chance you'll be back anyway. the tribe already spoke, she got voted out and thus she's going home.

I'm sad she's gone, as I at least hoped she'd make it to the jury.  The re-entry challenge must be coming any time, unless they do it differently than they did for S38.  Whatever the case, she's going to have an uphill battle with whose already been voted off.  I don't blame her, either, and wouldn't consider her a quitter like those who quit before getting voted off.

[truthaboutluv]

Nice, Rob. But as much as I adore you, I would like to not see you in your boxers again. 

I did laugh at Natalie saying, "I think she'd tell you" when Rob asked Amber if she had any tokens.

Doubt it because there are many OG Survivor fans who hate EoE and would prefer old school, "you're voted out, you're out" Survivor. So I think they'd be fine with Sandra saying, "hey I was voted out and that's the game".

[Kerri]

Also didn't she just finish the last season as an advisor? I get she wasn't a contestant and it wasn't as grueling but still- it's an awful lot of time sitting on beach with bugs.

[LadyChatts]

This scene of Tony running reminds me of James out running JT in HvsV to show he could still participate in challenges even though he was injured-and he beat him handily.

So suddenly Jeremy wants to vote Tony off, whose a bigger threat?  What happened to him wanting shields around?

[Lantern7]

I’m a bit behind. Did Tyson buy a second jar of peanut butter?

Sad thought about last week: Russell probably busted both nuts seeing Pavarti and Sandra getting voted off.

Tony is still a dork. Okay, then.

[Straycat80]

That’s funny Tony is so happy Denise is still there, he tried to vote her out last week. 

[Lady Calypso]

Tony thinks he's totally safe; meanwhile, Kim and Jeremy are considering voting him out first lol

[LadyChatts]

So despite what Tony thinks, Kim/Denise/Jeremy seem tight.

Hopefully those three realize they need more than just the three of them at the merge.

Can we skip Yara and just go back to EOE?

[Lantern7]

People slowly losing weight, Denise puts on 500 lb. of pure ego. . . .

I don’t blame her, but still . . .

I hate naonka she was the one who ate in a challenge knowing she was going home she was the worst . I’m not a Sandra fan but Sandra is not like that. But her ego was bruised for sure .
