Stacy's Blog Has Got It Going On

 "Homeboy ain't Aquaman." -Danny Kilby You know when we get to the Immunity Challenge about fifteen minutes into the episode, something crazy is going to happen.  And when there is still twenty-five minutes left of the episode and we're starting the second Tribal Council, you know we're about to go off the rails.  If you were watching the clock at all, you got to enjoy the building of the tension and that made this episode so much fun to watch.  I love it when I know something insane is going to happen, but I'm not quite sure what it's going to be.  Let's get into who played well and who sucked. Who Played Well: Starting over on the Dina tribe, I'll give Kilby and Lewis credit for trying to break through Savu.  Kilby made some great bonds that would have saved him over Lewis and Lewis tried...something with his Blood Ring idea.  But once Maggie came in with a pair of Extra Votes for them, they kicked it into high gear.  They went for the tie, whic...

 "Wah!" -Eric Macksoud I never thought I would see the day where my favorite video game character, Waluigi, would be mentioned on my favorite TV show.  Am I thrilled that Eric is our Waluigi fan representative, not really, but I'll take it!  I'm rooting for Eric slightly more now because of this.  Oh yeah, I suppose there's an episode of Survivor to talk about here.  I would have liked one more episode before going to three tribes, but I like the format of going from two tribes, to three, and then merging, so I hope that's what we do here.  Anyway, with these new tribes, lets get into who played well and who sucked. Who Played Well: We'll start on the new Dina tribe.  I'm really enjoying the bromance between Eric and Kilby.  I'm glad I'm not living on the same beach as them, but it's fun to watch for a few minutes on TV.  Kilby came into this tribe in a terrible position and I think he did a phenomenal job finding a way off of the bottom....

 "The friendly vampire needs some new friends." -Eric Macksoud Wow, if Survivor 51 was a bowling match, call it a turkey because that's three strikes in a row.  I loved this episode.  I didn't even mind the quit because it was kinda funny.  After that, we had the long-awaited return of the Mutiny to absolutely stellar results.  Plus I was genuinely blindsided by the vote.  I didn't think there was anyway that the 6 was going to be able to lock it in, but they did it and it was excellent.  Season 51 is definitely in the conversation for having the best first three episode run of the show.  I'd throw Cagayan in there as well.  Does anybody have any other nominees?  Anyway, let's get into who played well and who sucked. Who Played Well: We'll start over on newly decimated Savu tribe.  I can't believe they managed to pull out the Immunity to win and they can thank Cristian and Kristin for their clutch performances on the puzzle. I also ...

 "I'm missing a quarter of my thumb." -Brady Booker A castaway literally cut off part of their thumb in this episode and that didn't even manage to be the craziest part of the episode.  Just...wow.  The hits keep on coming in Survivor 51  and I'm digging it.  This cast is a mess and I hope the implosions keep rolling.  Pure absurdity.  Let's get into who played well and who sucked. Who Played Well: Starting on Savu, there was a lot of eavesdropping going on, some more accurate than others.  Alexis learned that Ana was not someone she could trust and immediately threw her under the bus to Linnea and Sharonda.  They were all still willing to take out Eric to keep tribe unity, but then Linnea misunderstood Carter, but even though she didn't hear what she thought she heard, it led her into making the right move and I don't think they even know how good this move was.  The three of them took charge and led the vote against Ana, who they not o...
