S31.E08: You Call, We Haul

[Tara Ariano]

Another castaway is voted out of the game.

[Mreid]

Wow i am shocked that the green team won that reward challenge! I thought the purple team was gonna dominate. Joe is just making his target bigger and bigger winning these challenges like this, shucks even Keith is threat at this point

[LadyChatts]

Not able to really watch (and when I can the sound is off-I'm supposed to be working, after all).

 

I wish they would show the schoolyard picks.  I know it isn't the most riveting TV but I would sometimes like to see how the teams end up the way they are (I figured Joe & co would win, due to the Wiglesworth redemption and the other team seemed so heavily stacked, so it seemed obvious the underdogs would prevail).  Joe's got quite a little boy smile.  I agree, he isn't doing anything to diminish his target but he hasn't all season.  At this point he isn't going to, and shouldn't try to lay low.

 

They come up with some really random quotes for these episodes.

 

And, if they are going to have endurance challenges, why not a good old fashioned 'hold your hand on the pole' so we can see it slip off like Rudy, or have one of the ladies tell one of the other ladies they are about to fall out of their shirt (just like Neleh/Kathy from Marquesas-distracting her enough that she lets go).  Some of these used to go on for hours and hours.  Now it seems over and done with in the length of an episode.

Did Kass flip off a certain person when she came out or the group as a whole? Keeping it classy Kass.

[NYGirl]

OMG I LOVED that Tribal Council.  Now that's a blindside.

 

GO KELLEY!!!  I actually screamed with glee

 

Savage's face!  I'm glad  I TiVoed it..to watch again and again.

The only thing that would have made that more epic is if Kelley, Ciera, or Abi yelled "we're your new Lill".

 

I think I would have been disappointed if Kass didn't flip everyone the bird.  Savage is a sore loser.

 

WTG Kelley on the idol play!  That's what I like to see (especially since it saved her!)  Loved the look on Savage, Stephen, and Tasha's faces!  That was epic!!!  Hopefully this shakes things up.  I'd hate to see it be like last season, where Jenn's boot didn't buy her alliance more than 3 more days.

I'm sorry. that was amazing. that was.. 
Edguardo just got bumped to 2nd place. this was amazing. just the whole "Oh Crap." and the slew of wentworths and then. "SAVAGE". the face palm, the unbelievable and then Wentworth's "At least you made the Jury."

 

I love Wentworth. that is all.

 

man. I can't stop laughing.

 

eta: it was Abi. Not Wentworth. I was laughing too hard to really tell.

That was such a satisfying blindside and idol play by Wentworth! I was so worried that Savage was going to make it to the end on likability, despite the fact that I think he comes off like such a tool who immediately casts those who don't automatically agree with him as immoral and disgusting.

[rhygirl720]

Happy Dance! Go Kelley! That was joyful to watch!!

 

[mojoween]

I love Joe winning and foiling everyone's plans and I also just love Joe in general.

Nine million times people discuss splitting the vote and it never matters. The one time they don't discuss it and they get bitten in the ass.

I am perfectly fine with Andrew going at any time but Kelley and Ciera were beyond gross. IMO, you can be happy you weren't bounced, but don't be gloating assholes about it.

Keith driving the tuk-tuk around was adorable. They don't show enough of those types of things.

You can't spell "klassy" without "Kass", am I right?

Ciera is so annoying, I can't imagine why no one wants to work with her.

[dizzyd]

I'm pissed off that I missed most of the episode but that TC was so enjoyable. Way to go Wentworth and you can stick the middle finger up your ass Savage.

that's the point (regrettably).  after Tom & Ian broke the regular endurances, they went to the ones that could finish quick and easy. Which sucks. I miss the Stand here and Suffer. without having to balance crap.

[ElleryAnne]

Wow, Savage, poor loser much?   You and Kass will make Ponderosa a happy place, indeed, with the bitterness and the bird-flipping.

[NurseGiGi]

Wow, I am loving this season of Survivor!!  Great play, Kelly!

[Dust Bunny]

J. Walter Weatherman: "And that is why you always split the vote."

[ByaNose]

That was sorta AWESOME!

[vb68]

Wow!   That was just awesome!

 

 Biggest move of the season so far!  Go Wentworth!

 

Savage really had it coming.  Class move at the end there too, Big Guy!

 

I hope this continues to shake things up.

 

Trust your gut Joe.  You knew you still should have sided with the girls!

[Maverick]

Best.  Episode.  EVER.  

 

Did you get what you wanted there, Savage?  I have never laughed so hard at the TV.  From the moment Savage was pulled out after all the Wentworths I was howling.  Savage is an arrogant, privileged dick and deserved that brick wall that just ran into him.   Abi calling him out and the joy of the realization it will be just him and Kass at Ponderosa for 3 days were just icing on the cake.

[Bluegirl547]

Ciera is LOATHSOME. What a sore winner. Gawd.

[LadyChatts]

Wow, Savage, poor loser much?   You and Kass will make Ponderosa a happy place, indeed, with the bitterness and the bird-flipping.

 

So I guess we'll be getting a double salute next week when the jury walks in.

[Haleth]

Well played, young lady. Well played.

[PaperTree]

DAMN! That was orgasmic!!  Well done Kelley.  Cut off one of the heads of those snakes.

 

Damn! Keith is tough.  

 

"Joe's balls continue to move......"  Probst doing all he could to get everybody sweaty.  Hey, it's ratings and Joe brings the pretty.

 

Nice entry to tribal Kass.  Fuck 'em all.  Nice eye rolls Ciera.  Amazing how she can cross-eye them!  And then she trolls Savage on the way out and he sinks to Kass's level.  Excellent!  

 

He'll have lots of time to stew at Ponderosa.

[nottopbravo]

How did the Survivors move their hands back on the rope on the Immunity challenge?  Was someone else (production) there to center the balls?

 

Cass is really bitter, isn't she?

[wallflower75]

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaa

Awesome episode--man, was I getting tired of Savage.  I'm not as familiar with his season as I am with some of the others--my history of watching Survivor is off and on depending on what night it aired and the days I worked--but he did not make a great impression on me here.

[Lamb18]

THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!! HA HA SAVAGE! Have fun with Kiss in Ponderosa. You can lull her to sleep with tales of your supermodel wife. Ciara and Wentworth rock! My only regret is that Kelley had to use her idol, but if she hadn't .  .  . That was brilliant and now the core alliance is blown to smithereens. I loved seeing their faces as Jeff read the votes, especially Tasha's.

[susannot]

That was EPIC!  So, so satisfying to see all those votes for Wentworth and to realize that girlfriend had read the room correctly at just the right moment.  Best idol play since Parvati.  Go Wentworth.  Loved the looks of surprise and respect from all of her competitors except bitter Savage.

[toomuchtv47]

That was so amazing!!!  I'm still smiling.  I was counting along each time Kelley's name was read and when it got to 9 I put the computer down and sat forward, waiting with glee at who the ladies voted for.  Yes, I was expecting Stephen, but when Savage's name was read...it was oh so satisfying.

[Ms Blue Jay]

Jeremy's body all over that Reward Challenge.  Hoisting that Cube thing upon his shoulders.  Oh mama mama mama mama.

 

I'm sorry but it is so hysterical that Spencer is NOT the nerdiest person in this season.  I'm sorry to find every element of Spencer fascinating, but I do.  

 

Andrew taking the show seriously is still so funny.

 

I still dislike Ciera.  Not hate like Kass, just dislike.  I don't like her.  What does her body language remind me of?  Is it a praying mantis?  Kermit the Frog?  

 

The Two ball challenge!  For men with two balls

 

That Immunity Challenge - most fucking tense challenge ever.  Joe is a fucking beast.  He is so fucking unreal.  Poor Spencer he looked so defeated when he lost.   Fishbach wasn't even near first out this time.

 

I'm starting to think Kelley Wentworth is really hot.  I got a little jealous when she was being flirty with Joe.  It would be basically zero possibility that I could resist doing that.

 

Spencer is in a fantastic position isn't he?  The girls all seem to trust him and not put him in the Controlling Top 4/5. And I think Jeremy has trusted Feelings Boy since Day 1.  I don't think Spencer should even play in the immunity challenges as hard as he does.  He always gets close to Joe then loses, so what is the point?  He just shows everyone he's the second toughest threat in the game.

 

I also thought it was Abi who said "At least you made the jury."  Hehe :)

 

I thought the purple team was gonna dominate.

 

No, I thought the complete opposite.  Green has Kelly Wiggles, Joe, and Kelley W. right?  And purple had Fishbach and Abi.  I actually thought Purple would do a lot worse than they did.  Wiggles is a whitewater rafting instructor (am I making that up?) That's why it was so embarrassing she lost the challenge in Season 1; she wanted to win this one so bad.

[LanceM]

"You made it to the jury!"

 

lol. love Abi.

[LadyChatts]

Joe wanted to work with the girls, Spencer's been a bottom feeder, Stephen's wanted to make a big move, Kelly Wigles always finds herself in the minority (she's still outplayed even when she votes with the majority!).  That's why I'm hoping this will shake the game up.

Edited November 12, 2015 by LadyChatts

[jsm1125]

Did Kelley say that, or did Abi?  For some reason I thought it was Abi.  Guess that means I'll have to watch it again.

Abi did indeed say that and also "right back at you" after Savage gave her the bird. Speaking of Abi, how has she not received a single confessional since the merge?

[MKL122788]

Where was the split vote? In fact, why didn't Savage and Joe try to get them to split the vote, then flip so that 5 was enough to vote out Stephen?

 

Either way...

 

YESSSSSS! Smug ass bitch gets roasted. Glory to Wentworth.

[Daisy]

Like honestly,  I was  surprised that the votes weren't split

 

and honestly,  - paint me a sore loser too  if you were told it was one way - then it was thrust back on you, and NO ONE was making a move  - I would have A: played my Idol and B: been a brat about it to. to me it's like playing a trump in Uno, or Crazy Eights or whatever  and you come back (for that round) you get pumped up and you cheer, crow, etc, and move on. I wouldn't blame anyone for those reactions 

 

It's how they deal with it afterwards. they're still at the bottom. 

[ByaNose]

I really can't believe that they ALL voted for Wentworth. I thought they would at least split the vote for Kelley & Ciera. That was freaking awesome. One of the most EPIC Tribal Councils ever!!!!!!!

Edited November 12, 2015 by ByaNose

[Chrissytd]

That TC was great. Kudos to Wentworth. She's been playing hard this go around compared to SJDS.

Did Kelley say that, or did Abi? For some reason I thought it was Abi. Guess that means I'll have to watch it again.

It was Abi. That's why Savage flipped the bird.

[Mreid]

That was the best tribal so far this season!.  This season is the bomb!!! Kelly Wentworth definitely wins the player of the week award in my opinion. Well done!  So long Savage lol

[susannot]

Loving the girl alliance of Wentworth, Ciara, and Abi.  The group was right to target Wentworth first as she is the strongest player.

 

ETA:  IMO, they didn't split the vote because they severely underestimated Wentworth and assumed she would be an easy boot.  You know what they say about the word assume.

Edited November 12, 2015 by susannot

[KaveDweller]

That was an awesome TC.  I can't believe they didn't split the vote, people are always splitting the vote. I would be offended if I was Kelley and knew they didn't think I was capable of having found an idol.  The looks of terror on everyone's faces were hilarious.  And I loved that she hadn't even told her alliance about the idol so everyone was shocked.

[Haleth]

Second best moment was Keith driving everyone around in the tuk tuk.

[LanceM]

I am not surprised they didn't split the votes. Do you really think it ever crossed someone like Savage's brain that one of the women could have had an idol.

[me5671]

LOL!  So glad Savage got the boot.  He was getting so smug and holier-than-thou.  I'm not a huge fan of Ciera and Fishbach either, but the way he reacted to them daring to play the game really didn't sit well with me.  In other news, it turns out that Kelly Wentworth has serious game when she's playing without her dumbass father.  So awesome!

 

To top it all off, Abi-Maria's taunt too Savage as he left was also LOL-worthy.  "At least you made jury!"

[Straycat80]

And a storm went thru my area ten minutes before the end of the show and knocked out my power so I missed everything, Arrrrgh! I'm going to have to watch on CBS. Website when they put it up. Sounded epic.

[tinaw]

Woowww Kelly played the Epic blindside. I'm surprised ciera didn't get any votes though. I would have been glad that her rolling eyeballs were gone.

Savage blindside was awesome

[Daisy]

Did Kelley say that, or did Abi?  For some reason I thought it was Abi.  Guess that means I'll have to watch it again.

 

Awesome episode--man, was I getting tired of Savage.  I'm not as familiar with his season as I am with some of the others--my history of watching Survivor is off and on depending on what night it aired and the days I worked--but he did not make a great impression on me here.

 

It may have been Abi. Heck it could have been of Ciera. 

Honestly - me too. and I was really team Savage at first, Maybe I was just uber-anti Outcast twist or something, but I liked Andrew in Pearl islands and I got uber tired of him here, and even if this was say, Varner (sniff. no Jury!!). i still would have had the exact same reaction. i never saw this coming, it came, and i lost it. it was great. 

[mjstrick]

Now that? Was fucking hilarious.

[vb68]

 

Andrew taking the show seriously is still so funny.

 

 

I'm sure he will relive this one for another dozen years like last time.

 

So why didn't they split the vote?  Cocky, cocky, cocky.

[dkb]

I hope that all the tribals are as interesting as the last two have been.

I think I kind of understand what Ciera is saying about "big moves" and I think some of them in the alliance did too.

 

Glad they made the smarter decision to get rid of Savage instead of Stephen. Stephen's not winning any immunities, and isn't as arrogant.

[PaperTree]

Did Kass flip off a certain person when she came out or the group as a whole? Keeping it classy Kass.

My guess is the whole group, but I wondered that too.

[Sarahsmile416]

I'm a fan of Wentworth and would have been more excited about that idol play if either a) they had split the frigging votes and gotten Ciera out or b) Stephen had been voted out. I am over him. Whine whine whine...

I love how Ciera talks about the four on the top but she doesn't even know if it's Stephen or Joe in the 4th spot. Yet again, it becomes clear that she is simply pissed because people aren't playing the way she wants them to. That being said, I was frustrated with Jeremy saving Stephen tonight...I wonder if he regrets that now.

[Cutty]

Cierra rolls her eyes a lot. WE GET IT. 

 

I was surprised it wasn't Fishbach. Spoilers got it wrong.
