SURVIVOR 39: ISLAND OF THE IDOLS premieres Sept. 25, 2019

Why none of them want to keep Karishma around to the end baffles me. She's not a challenge threat and they all complain that she doesn't do anything around camp. Who on the jury is likely to vote for her?

 

[starvenger]

I really want to know what they're not showing us about her, because at this point it's not the best strategy to pick off the "easiest person to beat" at final tribal.

When it was tribal challenges, yes, get rid of her. She couldn't do anything to help win and she caused a lot of losses. Now that it is individual immunity, she needs to be the one you take to the end. Unless, Like a PP said, there is something they are not showing us about her game play. Like Rob and Sandra said at TC a couple of weeks ago when I think Tommy said he would take her to the end, they both laughed and said they would too. If the producer's are truly showing us her game play, she would not get one vote.

Did they beginning seem off to anyone else tonight? It seemed to start with them walking up to the loved ones challenge, almost like they started the show to early.

 

[L&Lfan]

I despise Noura.

I noticed that too!

 

[lovin'fl]

I watched tonight. Freakin Dean ruined everything. Gah! So Janet or Elaine for the win! But not likely to happen

Weird night for me tonight. I have been wanting (highlight)Karishma to be voted off many weeks ago, she does nothing for the game, and at this point, she would only be brought to the end as a goat. Literally no one would vote for her. Yet, tonight I found myself screaming that they didn't vote off crazy(highlight) Noura. She is a fruit cake.

I started the night liking Noura but, yep, she is a cray cray. ANd Dean too. Like why not vote his disloyal sneaky butt out. Uggh. Hard to find anyone to root for this year. Sad when Karishma was top of my list.

Noura reminds me of DD#2...if there is a secret to be kept, or if she has information that you don't, she cannot keep it to herself.

I think Noura is ok with being in the center of the loop, but when she gets to those outer bands (like tonight, with not being chosen for reward), she has to do something to get herself back to the center.

 

[starvenger]

All that posturing and they went back to the original plan (kinda), because as the top four predicted, they couldn’t get their stuff together.

 

[toolmanjan]

It looks like Nora and Dean just punched their ticket to the end. Because they are the weakest. This is the dumbest group of survivors ever. Voting Karishma out makes no sense. I thought Dean was an idiot before but last night proves it. Janet or Elaine winning would make me happy.

 

[EMom]

Dean is always so pleased with himself. But why?

 

[starvenger]

Upon reflection, this might actually have been a decent move. Karishma might not have been any kind of challenge threat, but she was at least showing some fire in the last couple of episodes. Again, I feel like there was some edit trickery because it should not have been this hard to vote her out at any point in time. And if she was truly that weak, they should be dragging her, by hook or by crook, to that Final Tribal Council, because you are effectively increasing your odds or winning.

Dean seems to think that his 3-person alliance is strong despite every indication that Lauren and Tommy are a power couple of sorts. Noura is seemingly both aware and unaware that she is #5 in a 4 person alliance. And so if that core four is not targeting Elaine next, I'm not sure what they're doing.

I think Noura or Elaine will be the next target. Prob Noura since she can win comps. So she better keep winning and/or find an idol.

Spoiler: leaked final three

I read a spoiler leak that said Dean, Tommy and Noura are F3 (and Lauren is F4) so Noura must go on an immunity run and Elaine likely goes next week. Dan and Janet not far behind. Also there are still rumors of Dan getting sent home.

 

[starvenger]

Not gonna read that spoiler (I have an inkling that I'll be mad when I find out), but appreciated!

 

[mnrose]

Interesting spoiler. If correct, your winner from THAT group is nearly a foregone conclusion. I don't care about ANY of these people. Most worthless group of survivors since the soft porn guy won many many years ago.

 

[starvenger]

I dunno. The group on Redemption Island was pretty weak. I'm a Boston Rob fan, but he really didn't have to try very hard to win that season.

 

[wgeo]

What a drag of a season, unlikeable characters and I'm not impressed with the storyline editing either.
