Last nights show was AWESOME!! There is one person I already can NOT STAND because he thinks he is so beautiful was it and then he goes on I Know that sounds horrible or mean but its so true that he is so beautiful! GAG!! For some reason I can not remember his name maybe thats a good thing ha ha!!
Anyhow , I also want to say sorry I have not been around for awhile took some time away from my blog and tending to family matters though all is getting better and I am so glad to be back on my blog again missed you all and missed my blog! Once I got started I just could not really stop typing :)
ON that note they made an idiot mistake last night by voting out Darnell and it should of been Alecia blondie barbie doll girl thank you! So he dropped the goggles sorry it happens he owned up to it but he pulled his weight to in the challenge after that where barbie there did NOTHING! Couldn't even try to figure out the puzzle she had to have one of the guys save her ass uh yeah right!
Players I do like rooting for right now are Caleb of course he is showing his true side more outdoors side of himself. I also like our Asian friend to though I don't think he should of been in the beauty tribe just as one other is the brawns that is Barbie doll there they need to trade a few I think production may of gotten mixed up not sure who knows shall wait to see what happens next.
So on that note stay kind to one another be well and live happy with family and friends.

Survivor Kaoh Rong GOOD SHOW LAST NIGHT!
'Survivor: Kaoh Rong' Season Premiere Recap: Brains, Beauties and Brawn Are Back Wednesday, February 17, 2016
The last season of
Survivor gave returning contestants a second chance, but Season 32,
Survivor: Kaoh Rong,
is giving one of their more popular themes a second chance. It's the
return of Brains vs. Brawn vs. Beauty with players categorized into each
of these three tribes to try and determine which attribute is the most
crucial to winning the game. Because people can only be defined by one
single quality, right? Well, that's true at least until a tribe swap!
Let's get to it.
Before Jeff Probst tells the 18
survivors to gather what they can and jump off a boat, he warns us that
this is about to be the most grueling 38 days in
Survivor history. Given how much we know Jeff loves to talk in superlatives, I'm not sure how much I buy it, but I guess we'll see!
Meet the Brains The Brains are the Chan Loh tribe in blue bluffs.
The first person we meet from the Brains tribe is Dr. Peter, who is an
ER doctor who bears a striking resemblance to President Barack Obama
(much to his annoyance). He's afraid that even though he's on the brains
tribe, he's still going to have to downplay his smarts. (Considering
the size of his ego, that might prove to be difficult.)
Speaking
of egos, Debbie is another Brain who can't stop talking about herself.
But unlike Peter, she's not smart enough to simply keep it in her
confessional. She has to tell everyone all about her military training
and her current occupation as a chemist. What's worse is that she even
brags about being able to start fire as soon they land on the beach, but
she's unable to deliver when it's time to actually start it.
Neal, an ice cream maker/entrepreneur, was worried about being the
eccentric on the tribe until he met Debbie. He talks separately with Liz
(an MIT grad) and Dr. Peter about getting rid of Debbie and Joe (a 71
year-old retired FBI agent) first since they're the oldest. So they
solidify a solid group of four.
But there's already cracks in
that solid group of four. Aubrey, a social media professional from
Boston, is having some trouble adapting to the conditions. She's
suffering from heat exhaustion, dehydration, and anxiety. Her tribe
mates try to calm her down, especially Debbie. But Liz and Neal worry
that she may not be stable enough to keep around.
Meet the Brawn The Brawns this season are in red buffs and are members of the To Tang tribe.
True to a Brains, Brawn, Beauty season, we need a retired NBA player (ala Cliff Robinson) and former Boston Celtic Scot Pollard
is here to fill that roll. Only he isn't as nice as Uncle Cliff. He's
been known as "the thug" on each team he was on. And also in a diversion
from retired athletes on this show, Scot decides to be upfront right
away with his tribe mates about who he is instead of trying to hide it.
Jason is a bounty hunter, and he's super intense, even as far as the
Brawn tribe goes. He spent six years in the military, so he knows he's a
bad-ass, but he has a softer side too. He talks about his autistic son
being his motivation for being here.
Jason is also eager to
start playing the game fast. He and Scot single out Alecia, a real
estate planner, as the first boot. Then Jason goes around to everyone
else on the tribe to make alliances with them as well.
Darnell, a
postal worker, and Cydney, a professional body builder, make a
connection right away. They agree to stick together and also single out
Alecia as a weak player to get rid of early.
Poor Jennifer, a
construction worker, doesn't get any sleep on the first night because a
bug's crawled in her ear. She's miserable listening to it's legs move
inside her ear. The next day, it hasn't gotten any better and her ear is
bleeding. She's at her wit's end when finally it too has has enough and
crawls out. Her tribe mates notice it crawling out and they kill it.
Wow, now that's some nasty stuff. But as soon as it's out, Jennifer's
back to feeling like her old self and ready for the first challenge.
Meet the Beauties This season the Beauties are wearing yellow buffs this season and are called the Gondol tribe.
Anna the professional poker player, Michele the bartender and Julia the
sorority girl all immediately hit it off. While their similarities are
bring the women together, the men on the tribe aren't having the same
kind of luck. All three of them have quite different personalities.
Tai Trang
is a 51 year-old Vietnamese refugee and gardener who loves plants. He
endears himself to the ladies when he teaches them how to tether their
chickens so they don't escape but they don't have to be caged. The
ladies feel like he's definitely someone they could pull over for
another number.
Then there's Caleb, an army veteran and former
Big Brother star and Nick a self-proclaimed narcissist and life coach. The ladies recognize Caleb as Beast Mode Cowboy from
Big Brother
and that's good news for Anna. She remembers that he was loyal to his
alliance all the way to the end so they can probably trust him.
The next day everyone's collecting firewood when Tai takes off on his
own to look for the idol. Unfortunately, he isn't sneaky enough because
everyone notices he's gone and agree to go look after him.
They
catch him looking, and instead of making something up about scavenging
for berries or something (which would make sense since he's a gardener)
he admits he was looking for the idol. He says he doesn't have it but
the rest of the gang doesn't believe him.
While he keeps looking
for the idol, the rest of them go back to the beach and shake on a new
alliance. Now instead of being another number for the girls, Tai is on
the outs.
First Immunity Challenge
For the first immunity challenge, the tribes have to swim out into the
water to a boat. Then one person has to retrieve four oars. Then the
tribes have to paddle back to shore, dock their boats to create a cart
and push the cart up the beach. Once they get there, each tribe has to
decide whether to do a puzzle or a test of dexterity that involves
stacking balls while standing on a wobbly beam.
The first two tribes to finish win immunity. The first tribe gets a fire kit and the second gets flint.
Aubrey is the MVP of this challenge for the Brains (and for all three
tribes, to be honest). After her shaky start at camp, she rallies to get
all four oars herself and then dominates the puzzle to lead the Brains
to the first victory of the season. (Yay Brains for overcoming the
shadow of their flop Brains tribe forefathers from
Survivor: Cagayan.)
The Beauty tribe gets off to an early lead ahead of the Brawn because
Darnell drops the goggles in the ocean on the first dive. The Brawn
tribe struggles to recover from Darnell's bundle, but somehow they
manage to be neck-and-neck when it comes to the puzzle.
Surprisingly enough, both tribes choose the puzzle instead of the
dexterity test. Jennifer and Alecia work on the puzzle for Brawn, until
Alecia taps out and Scot comes in. But it's Julia and Anna who get the
puzzle done first for the Beauties.
Brawn is going to the first Tribal Council.
The Scramble Begins
Alecia apologizes right away that she couldn't get the puzzle done
(even though she warned her team mates at the beginning of the challenge
that she wasn't good at puzzles) and Darnell follows suit. He says it
was on him for losing the goggles. Even though he used to be a
lifeguard, swimming in the ocean is a whole different ball game.
Jason says it's between Darnell and Alecia (or as he calls her,
"Blondie") tonight. But Scot thinks it should be Darnell, no contest. He
thinks he was dead weight during the challenge and the reason they
lost.
Scot tells Alecia she's safe, and while she doesn't really
trust Scot, she doesn't really have another choice. She does try and
bluff Jason and Scot that she has an idol though. All it does is make
Scot even more annoyed that she's being "too schemey."
Cydney
doesn't want her pal Darnell to go home, and Alecia really gets on her
nerves, but she tells the majority she'll vote wherever they decide.
Tribal Council
Jason says his first impression of his tribe is that only some people
are standing up to his high expectations. With two exceptions: Darnell
and Alecia.
Alecia says it doesn't feel good to be seen that
way. She says she doesn't see herself as the weakest link in the tribe
and that she's a "mental giant." Maybe she was placed on the wrong tribe
then?
Anyway, she points out Darnell's shortcomings in the
challenge. She says she'll continue to work her butt off in challenges
and won't break down out here. Cydney says that Alecia talks a big game,
but doesn't back it up.
Poor Darnell is really beating himself
up over his challenge performance. He says he knows he put them behind,
but he tried his best. He says it's been like a heavy weight on his
shoulders all afternoon. He says things have never been easy for him,
and he's had to fight for everything he has, but it still hurts to lose.
His emotional performance (not so much a performance as it
does seem genuine) is changing people's minds. Jennifer says it kills
her to hear that from Darnell and Jason wonders if they're making the
right choice.
To the Vote! The votes come in and it's a tie! Three votes for Alecia and three for Darnell. It looks like Darnell did change some minds.
But on the re-vote, it's Darnell who gets all of the votes. I feel bad for Darnell, especially si
nce he seemed
more passionate about sticking around than Alecia. But it came down to
challenge performance, and that's something that is important to the
Brawn tribe.
Next week: Looks like Tai tries to get up on Beast
Mode Cowboy. Knowing what little things I know of Caleb, I don't think
he's going to like that much.
Survivor airs Wednesday nights at 8pm on CBS.
