It's that time of year for the new Survivor to start up again.
Tonite get out your bag of Cheetos and turn on the big HDTV.
Party time from 7:00pm to 9:00pm...(I love CSI too).

... and turn on the big HDTV. Is that your way of saying that it finally arrived? |

Well....it was backordered, so I got a substitution....
Yes, we now have HDTV and we picked up the HD cable box yesterday also.....
Just in time for The Olympics (and Super Bowl)

I never thought I'd love the HD so much but I got it in December and it is AWESOME! I got the Hitachi 42" Plasma HD and Mediacom HD service.... The one thing that sucks is there is no ABC HD down here! Argh! No HD SuperBowl! But watching the NFL playoffs and my beloved Fighting Illini beat Wiscy in HD was great!

I don't think I'm going to like this season of Survivor.

I'm with you Cher!! I just didn't get it. Why not vote out the weakest link? The one who is a detriment rather than asset? I think the older women already screwed themselves...
We have a 42" LG Plasma with HD. I love that it is mounted on the wall and is out of the way! Dammit I forgot the Cheetos!!!

Well, I bought the Cheetos and have been watching...Does anyone else think that the people on Survivor are crazy because of the people they have voted off (or not voted off)?

I've missed the last 2 weeks of Survivor (and everything else) as I've been glued to the Olympics....

We Tivo! Watch the ads (Circuit City did this) because you can get it for free (due to a rebate) as long as you contract to pay for the Tivo. (Its like five or six bucks a month and you gotta do this anyway in order to use it!) So far you can't get that deal on the HD, though.

I'm so pissed Terry didn't win.  Glad the bitch Daniel lost though ;D. That's what she gets for double crossing Terry. Plus she never really did anything out there. Never really rooted for Aras, but he at least contributed to the group for survival. Wondering if he's Latvian or something. |

I'm with you Anita. I was so hoping for Terry. He was fabulous....but couldn't pull it out in the end. Thank goodness that Aras beat D though...she was worthless...except where it counted in that last immunity. I haven't watched the reunion show yet, but am looking forward to it & to the preview of what's next for Survivor. At least we know that Terry should get picked if they do another All Stars....he ruled!  Liz |

The next one will be at Cook Islands and will include another Exile Island.
It's a shame Terry couldn't do better on the final challenge, but I am happy that Danielle did NOT win.

Interesting. Let's assume he should have paid say 27% of his winnings or $270,000 to Uncle Sam. Take that amount over 51 months and its $5,294 per month. I don't know about you but I wouldn't give up over four years of my life just trying to cheat the government for $5,000 a month. Or maybe he's just stupid. |

I believe it was Rob who won the car & then chose to take Amber on the reward challenge & she also got a car. But technically she didn't win the reward, but she did win the game. I'd still watch out for that curse!! |

Terry screwed up by not playing the immunity idol. If he would have given it to Danielle at the final tribal council she would have taken him instead of Aras. He would have on on a 5 to 2 vote.

Do you think she would have taken him? I'm not 100% sure of that. But I do agree, that he should have given it to her then.

Played hockey there for a time in collage. I was close. Latvian names are very similar. |

But she turned on him twice before. Hard to say. He should have played her harder at the end.... but that didn't seem to be his nature. |
