That "have" camp was really something.
The previews for next week look pretty intense.
Was it just me or did the cast members seem (with two exceptions) to be getting along better then normal?

I couldn't get to know them enough to warm up to any of them yet. Some of them are truly obnoxious. And what is with all the nicknames? Are people intent on taking on new identities out there now? Very odd.
I do like the twist with having the two idols back at the camps instead of on Exile Island. Nice! But the have and have-nots? I'm not sure how that will play out. I'm surprised the Have-nots took it in stride.

What an interesting start... one person backing out at the last moment. What a shame... they have alternatives.. if they would've just had the notice then someone who WANTED to play could've played... anyway...I know that if I had to go to this Exile Island with all those snakes,well,they'd be carrying me off that island - ick! I agree about the nicknames... are they thinking a new name will extend their 15 minutes of fame? I thought James (Rocky) and those two girls (Erica and Jessica I think) had an alliance?? If you check the website you'll see that all three voted for someone different... Mookie seemed to be the 'ringleader' in getting Jessica booted... with 6 votes total - if that's the case then he's a silent leader since he had no real airtime. I am shocked that they did not boot the 'easy' target of the 'old guy' like they usually do. I do think this will be a good season!

It will be an interesting season I think, I think the motivation of all those snakes would make me do just about anything to keep myself off exhile island...hidden idol clues or not.

A good start. Not really crazy about the nicknames. Rocky, Dreamz, Boo, Mookie...
Yao-Man is great! Watching him open the crate made me laugh. He obviously won't be a serious contender physically but it will interesting to see how long he sticks around. I thought Sylvia was a goner after she took charge of building the camp. Interesting that she had to go to "Snake Island". Eek. She was OK with me until the "askew" conversation with Rocky. If he didn't know what "askew" meant, did she really think he would know "orthagonal"? Crooked, not straight, leaning...all would have worked.
The two camps are an interesting twist. Does ownership of the "good" camp change according to the challenges? I thought that was how this was going to play. Winners get the good camp.

I liked the first episode ... although this season seems kinda soft? A house? A potty? A kitchen? Food? Fire?
Half the fun of this game is watching them struggle and learn to survive ... they sort of took that away with the Home Depot approach ...
Anyway, I kinda like the cast. They seem a lot more normal than some previous years. This group doesn't look like a bunch of people trying out for acting careers.
Although the nicknames are odd.

I hate the nickname thing!
It was a little much having all the Survivor's in one group to begin with, but my early favorites based on that were Yau Man, Earl and even James. I really expected to not like James. Gary seems like a sweetheart.
sleepingbooty, you can watch the episode on cbs.com.

Yao Man is my fav!! He may look weak, but he is one smart man. Sometimes that is more important to survival than brute strength! I hope he stays on for quite awhile.
GO YAO MAN!

In a MN article he is one of the top 5 people to watch, and article also said that he is a too nice of a guy and is hard to vote off. Jeff Probst starts calling him the cool dad. He is my husbands coworker at the school bus company. He is a super nice guy!

That's Earl. I like him too!

I'm a dedicated Survivor watcher, and I loved last season-thought it was one of the best ever. The jury is still out on this season, but I'll stick with it and hope for the best.
I lke Earl as well; he seems pretty level-headed and someone to keep an eye on. I didn't care for Rocky during the first episode, but he kind of grew on me in the second.
It always amazes me that people keep making the same mistakes on Survivor that have gotten others booted off. One example is Sylivia, the architect, who was bossing everyone around and treating people with an uppity attitude. I know she survived this week, but she's irritated enough people so she's on the very short list to be kicked off soon. Erica, who was booted this week, irritated some of her tribe members with her yelling at the challenge. Those people who call attention to themsleves in ways that grate on other people's nerves tend to get the boot. I guess it's hard to change who you are in that type of situation. I don't know if I could do it.
Here's to what I hope will be a great season.

I haven't had a chance to watch. What is your perception of Rita? I'm not sure if they have shown much of her yet. As I said before, I love her brother Nick from Project Runway, so I hope she's as great as him. I think she is competitive since she trains a lot of pageant people from TX and CA.

Shari, you want to know my honest perception? I don't even know who she is. She apparently doesn't stand out to me.
-
That's what I was thinking, she hasn't been shown much, b/c no one has said anything about her. I will probably keep reading here, I keep missing the show! Thanks!
-
They showed a lot of Rita in the first show. I like her. She was the one they were going to vote off before they went with Jessica instead. Long dark hair, in great shape.
