survivor - heroes vs. villains

Pretty certain it will be a final three - with the current jury 3 Heroes (Amanda, JT an Candice) 3 Villains (Coach, Danielle and Courtney). I don't think you can count on anyone keeping their alliance in the final vote (amanda will vote for Parvatti, Rupert and probably anyone besides Colby who threw her under the bus with the clue) JT could vote for Russell.
But it seems pretty clear Parvati has this thing locked if she's in the final, Sandra or Jeri next.
I give Russell credit though - he can't out physical anyone, he lacks the social graces of say the bikini chicks and he entered the game with zero friends. Nobody knew him. He's just outworked everybody. I figured for sure he'd be one of the first to go, but if I was playing, I'd want him next to me at the final. But really, figure this thing is going to come down to someone picking a number between 1 and 10 to decide their vote.

 

Even if this becomes a girls vs. guys, which is what they're hinting at, they'll go after Colby first, Rupert second before they worry about Russell because he's the one they know/think they can beat in jury.

If that happens, Rupert and Colby could vote for Russell. J.T. might vote for Russell. Coach might vote for Russell.

I don't think he'll win, but I think he has a chance.

 

If you're a dude, you've got to take Russell. All three women left have a better shot at winning the thing than any of the guys. Then it's probably Rupert, Russell, Colby.
The last weeks are the best because it is normally where you get the vindictive votes.
They really need to go to the rocks this year. I always hate it when someone chickens out and changes their vote.

 

Russell is also smart enough to know he can't beat either of the other guys, so he's not going to get too stupid and try to vote out Parvati. I'm guessing he'll try to get rid of Sandra, not knowing she has the idol and it will come back to haunt one of the guys, probably colby or Rupert.

Colby might be the guy who nobody can beat in jury. He's finished second twice, one to Tina in Season 2 when he should have won and to Rupert in the "Who should get $1 million just because we like them" after the all-star season.

 

If people look at it logically, Colby shouldn't beat anyone this time around. He has sucked in the competitions and has zero strategy.

 

If Colby wins, it's a lifetime achievement award.

 

I want the best player to win. This season, that's Russell, or maybe Parvati. I hope one of those two win.

 

Colby is freaking horrible. Has any All-Star/Hero/Villain ever played a worse game the second or third time around? Geez, he was blaming his brother because he couldn't throw the water properly and then he lasted 15 freaking seconds in the challenge. How he's survived is amazing.

 

See, I'm on the fence now. I used to have no respect for Sandra, whatsoever, but her strategy is brilliant.

She sucks in challenges and every week finds a way to get to the next round. Take tonight, for instance. She basically tells Russell, point-blank, that she's waiting for her chance to get rid of him and all he can do is smile and go along with the plan because she's put herself in a position where she is, by and large, untouchable.

Her line to Rupert during the vote just shows how great she is at this game.

"I'll write your name down again and you'll still give me the million dollar vote."

I don't think I've ever seen a player so weak get so far on brain power and alliances alone.

It's like she's the anti-Colby. Sure, she's useless for the most part but, damn, what she lacks in physical skill she more than makes up for in the mental/social aspects of the game.

Oh, and unlike Russell, she does it without pissing everyone off in the process. They all view her as a non-threat and I seriously think she's going to get to the finals.

 

Did anybody else keep looking at Russell's eyes and face tonight, and the way he was looking at, and seemingly, through people, and keep thinking that he reminded you of Charles Manson?

For some reason, that kept happening to me, and I think Russell even looks a bit like him.

 

Colby doesn't even care any more. Did you see him at Tribal? He was looking away when the cameras captured him, seemingly not even paying attention.

His heart just isn't into it. The game has passed him by since Australia, and he can't physically dominate it like he did then.

 

It would be so crazy for her to be the first two-time winner.
