Once you were voted off, who were rooting for? I will have to say that I hope our one last Hero makes it to the final three. I would love to see a Hero sitting in that final Tribal Council. The odds are kind of stacked against him, so I don’t know. It is probably [...]
“[A ruler] should act with due prudence and humanity so that being overconfident will not make him incautious, and being suspicious will not render him insupportable”– Machiavelli, The Prince Russell Hantz thrives on chaos. He’s created an epic poem’s worth of metaphors to describe the way he turns people against each other -– he’s the [...]
But in a perfect world the strongest competitors would end up in the final three. There’s Russell, who’ll definitely face another apathetic jury if he makes it that far. There’s Sandra, who’s playing the smartest game so far. Sandra’s kept out of the fighting for the most part, but she’s not afraid to pull some [...]
Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains – Life at Ponderosa: Rupert Pt. 1 Rupert is voted off and joins the jury members at Ponderosa Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains – Life at Ponderosa: Rupert Pt. 2 The jury members get messages from their friends and families and get ready for tribal council
It’s bittersweet for Russell because was toying with the idea of getting rid of Parvati. Sandra talks to Rupert, telling him she wants to get rid of Russell. Rupert makes his first successful strategic move of the game by telling Russell about Sandra lobbying to get rid of him. This gets Russell mad enough to [...]
Immunity Challenge. This is a simple endurance challenge. Each player will stand with two poles being held between an overhead board and the backs of the players’ hands. When one pole drops, the player is out. Last one with both poles up wins Immunity. Jeff starts the challenge, and says that if a player allows their [...]
And it’s Colby. And since The Donaldson has been anything but a force of nature during this strangely hypnotic “Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians” season, it’s tempting to say that he probably won’t be a factor in Sunday’s finale. But what if he is? You’ve come down to a finale with only one likeable person left [...]
Colby and Rupert were this week’s targets. Parvati felt it was important that one of them go home because if they made it to the final three they would win. They haven’t played dirty yet made it so far – something the jury would think highly of. The fact that Russell changed his vote at [...]
In an emotional moment, the reward challenge reunited the contestants with select family members, whom they competed with side by side. Jerri won the reward and was allowed to bring another contestant and family member. She chose Parvati but asked if she could bring another. With host Jeff Probst’s blessing, she invited Sandra and her [...]
Parvati and Russell have been ruling Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains for so long, it’s hard to remember there are other players. Colby? He’s been worthless: no heart, no skills, no fun. Jerri? Slinking around the shadows, trying to stick with the winning squad. Rupert? Clinging to the idea that he’s one of the good guys. [...]
It was Rupert and his giant beard that went home on last night’s episode of Survivor, which was a mish mosh of sibling rivalry, giddy girl talk, he said she said, and then the tribal council. Let’s start with the sibling rivalry. The reward challenge saw Survivor contestants gifted with a little piece of home [...]
Who went home: Rupert Boneham, 45, of Indianapolis, Ind. He runs a charity program for children. From the start, Rupert was kind of counting on Sandra to protect him as he believes she did in Pearl Islands. He thought he could trust her. Of course, there is a reason she was selected a villain, but [...]
PRE-TRIBAL Wow. They’re all losing their minds. Sandra: Rupert, loose lips sink ships. Rupert: Yes, they do. Sandra: Yes, they do and they just did. Russell: Are you with me or against me? Sandra: I’m against you, Russell. Parvati: Who invited Boston Rob back to the party. Are you with me or are you against [...]

Mini-review: Family day! Jerri wins a visit with her sister, but snubs Russ by choosing Parv and Sandra as playmates. Russ gets mad, but comes to his senses and decides it’s finally time to blindside Parv. His plan goes awry when Parv wins immunity, setting up a constructed cliff-hanger over whether Russ will take out [...]
We’re going into this one with new air. I believe Russell has really screwed up his chances of winning. Is he good at strategy? Yes. Is he a social player? Yes. Is he socially responsible? No. When it comes to betraying and backstabbing, Russell needs to realize that doing such unethical things might get you far [...]
Then, Evil Loser Russell reminded the world why he is known for Losing. He arbitrarily decided the time was right to betray Danielle (it wasn’t) and that the primary Villains alliance would be fine without her (it won’t). Instead, Parvati and ELR have declared war upon one another with the primary beneficiary being the best [...]
Sandra’s idol play ultimately turned out to be unnecessary because of Russell’s vote, but she did get to shock everyone and prove that she’s more of a player than she lets on. And now she’s one of two previous winners going into the two-hour finale on Sunday. Will her alliance with Parvati and Jerri hold [...]
Nothing says family like an extended product plug. Parvati, apparently an “Electric Company!” fan, wakes everybody up with a loud “Hey you guys!” She has a box and in that box is a phone. That phone comes from Sprint. That Sprint phone is a Palm Pre. In many tight close-ups, we learn the magic of [...]
With Parvati safe, the alliances must make some quick changes of plan. Russell leads the group down the beach and Russell says that Parvati’s immunity makes his move easier. He decides that since he can’t remove Parvati from the game, he has to flip on the guys. Sandra tells Rupert that everybody wants to take [...]
