Oh, no doubt about that.

This was clearly one of those cases of two stupid people having a stupid-person fight.

I loved during the preview for next week how there's Shambo commenting on how disgusted she was about being in a tribe with "four people doing yoga".

I don't know what strategy she's planning on using, but to me, any time you see four people doing something together on Survivor, you make it five ... no matter how stupid you think they might be.

She's done it twice now, too, though the first was worse with her being the ONLY tribe member not going for a swim. Who cares if you disagree with what they are doing? Don't be the one person not doing it!

It was like watching a CP politics argument on TV.

It going to be funny to see the reactions of whoever figures out the clues and finds...uh... nothing, lol.
And the best part is he found the immunity idol intended for the OTHER tribe - so in theory he could now make sure he goes to the other camp at some point and yoink! Grab that one too.

He's a jerk to be sure - but he is a pretty good player.

Actually, that's a good point... do you think it gives him immunity even though it's technically the "foa foa" immunity idol? Or is he just preventing someone from the other tribe from getting it? Either way, a stong bargining/strategy advantage for Russell.

The immunity idols have always been tribe neutral on Survivor. Remember the season where they were hung on some gate and the older Asian guy had two of them?

Russell seems to be the most aggressive player on the game in quite some time, although I didn't watch last season.

Shambo.....wow.....

Not sure what to say about her....

Too bad the cop left. She seemed like the only one who would stand up and say:

"If you're a firefighter, what were you doing at home when the hurricanes came in? All police, fire, and army were on duty...."

Oh. Well, I don't remember that season. But admittedly, I haven't watched every season.

Wasn't that YowMan? (SP?) That was a pretty good season. Last season was the most boring IMO.

YowMan was some other season. He was awesome, btw. It was the really big black guy on Survivor China that had both immunity idol, but never used 'em.

Well, that had to be one of the best episodes of survivor in years. Where did they find Russell?

Seriously to be able to find two idols without any clues....simply amazing!

Definitely the best episode in a long time!! Russell's game playing drove me crazy for the first couple of episodes - but now I think he's the best to ever play the game! Just awesome!!!

Yep, still true

Typically I watch the first few episodes of a season then tune it out after all the characters are gone, this was the best season in a LONG time.

The preview, no matter how misleading, is pretty funny too.... everyone is trying to find the idol before Russell, lol.

I'm glad they didn't have Shambo vote for Kelly with them. She's the only link to the other tribe and by keeping the appearance of voting with them, she can get info to the former Foa Foa tribe and hopefully vote out another one of her smug former tribemates.

I don't want Russell to win, but he doesn't bother me nearly as much as he did in the beginning. I think its hilarioius that everyone his chasing after him to see where he looks for the idol. I can't wait until next weeks episode.
