Survivors: Heroes Vs. VilliansA Survivor Premiere Episode Recap:
This is going to be another awesome season of Survivor. The All Star seasons are fantastic because you know everyone going in. This year's cast is great on both sides of the Hero/Villain Survivor coin.
The contestants were choppered in, giving them a pampered entrance, as in other years they've had to read crude maps and hike or swim 9 miles to camp. As Jeff Probst assembled them, the villains grumbled that they really weren't villains - "What did we do?," wailed one anorexic contestant. To which, Jeff recited a litany of bad behavior. Seriously.. how great is Jeff?
Things got heated up super fast as Jeff launched them into their first reward challenge, wherein Stephanie almost immediately got her shoulder dislocated due to the roughhousing of the other contestants. It was mean. The boys loved it. Know what they loved more? On the second ladies round when Sugar got her top ripped off and promptly ran topless with her prize into the end zone turned and flipped the finger at the other girls. The boys really cheered on that run!
Sadly, Colby got owned by Coach who "frog rode him to the pad." Oh Boy. Coach is back. And speaking of the Dragon Slayer, he's smitten by original Survivor Villianess/Temptress/Black Widow Jerri Manthey who seems equally flirty. They actually would make a cute couple. Plus, seeing Jerri suck the life out of Coach would be fun. It's a Bad Romance...Haha. The Bad Bromance..? That's Coach (again) and Boston Rob who had some of the best lines of the night. Typical, BR, "Our women are clearly stronger than theirs." What a riot. He's probably right, though. After all, Stefanie ripped her arm out of it's socket and tried to decline medical afraid she'd get booted.
The second challenge, immunity, was ridiculous. Swim here, assemble this, light this on fire...it was all of the challenges mashed together and proved Chirie knows shit about solving a puzzle. She had a ten minute lead and BLEW IT. And somehow, Sugar is to blame and is the first Survivor to get voted off.
Russell is back and this is his chance to prove that he is the greatest Survivor contestant ever. He also had some great lines last night, although he is trying to keep low key for now.
J.T. needs to be subtitled. We can't understand a damn thing he says.
Poor, Rupert has no clue how to start a fire and almost wasted all the flint. It was sad. On the other hand, Boston Rob was wondering why no one on his tribe wanted to do anything as far as survival. They didn't feel like building a fire, or a shelter. So he started a fire by himself the old fashioned boy scout way...rubbing sticks together.
It was a good episode and a great preview of what's to come this season...
