The "Bitter Old Queen" is gone. Those are Coby's words too. Just watched his interview on the Today Show this morning. He said he was crazy out there, his eyes almost bugged out! He's not bitter anymore though, he's calmed down. I really had to laugh at his own description...bitter old queen! I even had to watch that comment twice.....
My first thoughts last night as soon as the show ended - Stephanie's not alone anymore (yeah!), Tom drunk, Coby gossiping like one of the 'girs', Coby washing Caryn's hair there (why not give her a trim while you're at it, wait, that's right, her hair is so SHORT!), Tom drunk and falling down (can't quite get over that one), thought he was going to sprain an ankle or something, here we go again - injury time thing, Janu napping all day (why did she even try out for Survivor?), Stephanie bonding with the girls (didn't quite see that one coming either, thought she'd be all rough and tough, hanging with the guys), and then the challenge. Jeff kicking back in a chair - had to laugh at that one. He really is the best host for this show! Donuts, milk and cookies and finally pizza - what foods would it take for you to give up your chance for a million dollars? LOL Couldn't believe Steph just jumped right in - we thought it would come down to two - her and Tom. Surprised Caryn hung in there so long - must have been her freshly washed hair that gave her stamina, he he.
Now to the vote - very surprised to see Coby went home. But he really sealed his fate. Complaining, complaining, complaining. All that whining got to viewers, can't imagine what it was like sharing a camp with him. Anyway, they were right to vote him off. But the best part of all was the LOOK on Janu's face - absolute shock, stunned she wasn't going home - that's right sistah, head on back to camp! She thought she was going home to a long hot bubble bath, real food and a bed! To do what she's hasn't done in so long - sleep. Oh wait, correct that - she should be very rested!
One more thing - still surprised Tom would get so drunk (did I mention that yet? LOL) - the patriarch had to step down. For a few hours there. We thought he'd be puking his guts out the next morning, not fishing!
Next!

Here's TV Guide's Friday morning Survivor critique....I'm glad she commented on how the vote came down (suspecting some morse code communication going on while standing on those perches - Kororians did have their voting act together, I thought the votes would be ALL over the place!).
http://www.tvguide.com/tv/watercooler/
Survivor
I love Stephenie, the lone Ulonger. So much so that I had to resist shouting, "You go Girl" in my white-girl way at the screen as she shimmied up a tree to get coconut and then single-handedly rowed that canoe that two people struggled with. She truly is She-ra and I just hope that now that she's been absorbed by the Kororians, who have had 22 days to get under each others skin, that she gets a fair shake. Most of them seem realize that Steph is one tough cookie, and cookies tend to get gobble up pretty quickly when there are nine starving people around. This was proven by the way that the tribemates dove off their platforms for a sweet treat, instead of trying to hold out longer for individual immunity. You'd think they hadn't eaten in days, when in reality the cool Palauan natives had provided fishing lessons and a boatload of aquatic creatures just the day before.
Seems like Jeff is having the blast on this island tour, kicking back in a in a lounge chair with a great big smile, teasing with food and torturing them all with some probing questions. But while Probst was asking about Steph, apparently the rest of the tribe sent out some secret morse code signal that Coby was the next victim. My eyes can rest easy as I won't have to see him in the skimpy banana hammock any more, but I think I felt the fun factor drop when Jeff said the tribe has spoken and snuffed the catty fella's torch. I guess that game is really on now. — Angel Cohn

Janu may now realize that the secret to getting voted off is not to sleep your day away...but instead to spend some energy being miserable to your fellow tribesmen.
Coby did a great job at that....and probably set a new standard for all the seasons in genuinely being bitter and ugly each day!
Unless something changes in the structure of the group, I don't see Janu getting voted off in the next couple of weeks.
The game is about strategy now...and that strategy will change from one of team against team to one of "who's the biggest threat to ME making it to the end."
And that puts some mental pressure on them to start eliminating the strongest competitors, not the weakest links.
Tom a target? Could begin to take shape that way.

LOL How about we build a S2K pool and hire Tom to be our poolboy? The younger members can pick a younger guy from Survivor.....
But you know, the guys will want their own poolgirl...or hire her for a specific purpose - lifeguard? LOL
Steve - you're right, the game has shifted now. Janu isn't a threat to anyone. Tom is. Stephanie is. Both are fierce competitors. Remember, in Survivor 9, Sarge was voted off when it got closer to the end. Stunning many. Tom could be this Survivor's Sarge. He'd better snag immunity again!
Hey Karan/Spunky - maybe Tom will be available afterall? he he

Sunny - we'd better feast our eyes on Tom next week huh? He could be next! All that firefighter talk and Steph being as strong and welcome as the men, didn't get too far with her!
As tonight's episode began I wasn't too excited, for once. Last week we wanted to see how long Stephanie would remain on her own. This week it was anyone's guess how this game would go. Janu bailing in 6 minutes from the underwater/claustophobic challenge was a shock! First you assumed she'd quit or bail, but you'd think she'd do anything not to be alone for the night, struggling to build her first fire. We've had the impression she's slept a lot so I didn't think she was paying attention much to survival skills. She hasn't been eating, that's apparent! But we were surprised she willingly quit first.
Tom winning immunity challenges is getting a little old, I must add.
Did anyone catch Stephanie's face when her 4 man crew lost? Especially when Jeff told them - I've got nothing for you, head on back to camp. That girl hasn't won a challenge yet!
Had to laugh at Janu's enlightenment tonight when she realized she had the power to lay down her torch all along. You could almost read her mind - then why the heck have I been hanging in here this long? Now she's on the Jury and can't really go home yet!

Looked as though Janu was able to handle a little dessert back at camp after having to leave the challenge-winning award feast to 
some cookies!
Coby sitting across from them all (during the tribal council) at the jury area having a smirky smile!
I agree Mary about it's getting old watching Tom taking immunity...It's like "No Contest, Hands Down" it seems...

Eric - wondered who would mention Janu tossing her cookies. LOL at your icon choices! She was just eating way too fast. Look at her - she is skin and bones. She should have paced herself but what do I know.....well, I do know firsthand you can drastically shrink your stomach and when you begin real eating again, in no time is your stomach full and by so little intake. She did kinda ruin the feast though....that had to have been a bummer to the others. Then she came back and was belching! The considerate thing to do was wait by the boat.
Nice that they brought back food. But as my family keeps telling me - it doesn't pay to be all that nice in Survivor Mom.....LOL
Forgot to comment on Coby's smirk, telling looks, smiles, putting his head in his hands - that boy didn't say a word but was saying a lot!
On last week's CBS morning show, Coby said Janu was sick most of the time she was on the island. He seemed to explain that was the reason she didn't do much. How sick or what kind of sickness, I don't know. But that's what he said. So I kept looking at her a little differently after I learned that. Before that bit of info, I just thought she was lazy!

Mary,
Thank you very much for explaining that to me about the reason why she couldn't handle the feast well. I was so focused on what kinds of dishes the native women were carrying to them that I didn't really notice her gorging before getting sick and having to leave. I wonder if her being a Vegas show girl for a career may have to do somewhat with her watching her weight but she probably lost more lbs. than she intended while in the game.
She may have been sick in part while at camp due in part to coconut meat...I've read it's a natural laxative.

Eric - Janu's career probably has something to do with how thin she was when Survivor began. But she seems very thin now. Coby said on an TV interview he lost 28 pounds while on the island. Can only imagine how much Janu lost and it didn't seem like she had much to lose. I just had the impression she ate too fast and too much. Must have been hard though with all that food nearby. I wasn't aware that cocunut meat is a natural laxative! I know fresh pineapple wreaks havoc with me, sorry for that detail everyone. Canned if fine, fresh for some reason is too raw. Janu must have been starving out there!
I know Coby is gone but closeby on the Jury. But I just saw this recent interview with him at TV Guide and the headline alone, grabbed my attention....enjoy!!!

Why Survivor's Gay Guy Wears "Manties"
by Angel Cohn
After last week's tribal merger on Survivor: Palau, 32-year-old Texan hairstylist Coby Archa was the first cut. The wisecracking troublemaker earned his tribe mates' wrath by blatantly attempting to ally himself with newcomer Stephenie and acting bitchy when he felt left out by Koror's tough-guy clique. (As a newly minted member of the jury, however, he may yet have the last laugh.) While TVGuide.com initially pegged this scantily clad gay guy as another Richard Hatch, he grew on us and we were bummed to see him go. Fortunately, this convo with Coby about his hair and wardrobe issues picked us right back up!
TVGuide.com: You were so much fun to watch. Survivor won't be the same without you.
Coby Archa: I had a good time — a real good time. [The remaining contestants] are not going to be entertaining, but it will be fun to watch them eat each other. And don't worry, I'm going to give you some good [final] tribal [council comments] to look forward to.
TVG: What a tease! As this season began, you bonded with Angie, but then you didn't pick her to join the Koror tribe. Do you regret that?
Coby: [Smirks] Aren't I awful? I stabbed her in the back and twisted it. I'm just cruel. Hindsight is 20/20. Do I wish Angie had been on my team? Yeah. But, at the same time, I didn't pick her because I knew she had a target on her back, and so did I. I think we would have stuck out too much.
TVG: This season's Survivors were stranded with only the clothes on your backsides. What was the deal was with those teensy underpants you wore?
Coby: Don't be jealous of my manties.
TVG: Manties? Very funny. But weren't you uncomfortable?
Coby: Totally. I didn't want to be on national television in a pair of black bikini underwear, but Survivor is good at tricking you, and we didn't know the game was going to start. Those were the clothes I had on.
TVG: What would you have worn if you were prepared?
Coby: I probably would have worn something that was breathable and not denim. That is my fashion tip for the day: Don't take denim to a tropical island.
TVG: Did you get rid of your big, unruly beard?
Coby: About an hour after getting voted out of the game. I could not stand it. After eating some pizza, I ran for a razor and shaved it off. Sasquatch is not my look.
TVG: Good plan. You gave a up a shot at immunity for doughnuts. Were they worth it?
Coby: The doughnuts were worth every lickable bite. Really, it wasn't about the doughnuts; it was a strategic move on my part. I knew I was going to jump [off the post] first before I even got there. I was going to call their bluff on the game. Either you want to play this with me or you [want to vote me off]. I'm not going to sit up here all day long begging for you to play with me. [But daring them] obviously didn't work.
TVG: Did you give up?
Coby: No. I stirred up a lot of trouble before I left. At the end, I was trying to play the Jonny Fairplay card. I was going to be the crazy a-hole that nobody liked, in hopes that somebody [would] want to take me to the final two.
TVG: But reaching the final two doesn't necessarily make you a winner.
Coby: Right, but that is all right. I didn't care about winning. I cared about playing the game as long as I could, and if I won the $1 million, then great. For me, it was the life experience. That is why I had so much drama with Tom, because he kept getting in the way of my experiences. He drove me out of my mind.
TVG: Did you get along with anyone?
Coby: [Laughs] In the beginning, I got along with everybody, but once we kept winning and winning and winning, things changed. I did get along with my whole tribe, including Tom. After a while, I just got so bitter and twisted against everybody that, toward the end, I wasn't crazy about anybody. I think I knew my time was up, and I was an unhappy little kid storming off the playground.
TVG: You were less than subtle about letting Steph in on the Kororian secrets. Why?
Coby: It was strategy, in that I was trying to help Stephenie, because I really like her. It wasn't to get her to trust me or vote with me. At that point, I had no numbers. It wasn't going to do me any good, but I thought it might do her some good.
TVG: You mentioned several times that you always felt left out of sports as a kid. Did you ever feel like part of a team on the island?
Coby: I totally felt like I was part of the team when it came to challenges. But when it comes to camp life and playing the "game"? No. That is why I got so bitter and twisted. No matter how good I was in challenges or how much hard work I put into the camp, still nobody wanted to play with me.
TVG: I loved when you kicked James' butt during the wrestling game.
Coby: That one was good.
TVG: He made some comments about the fact that he lost to a gay guy. Did that bother you?
Coby: No, because I loved James. Any kind of trash he talked was welcomed. I think he's great.
TVG: Would you ever do another reality show?
Coby: Sure, only because I am an experience junkie. I would love to do The Amazing Race. But I think Rob and Amber are going to ruin that for me, because if they win, there is no way they'll put me on.
TVG: Who would you take with you?
Coby: I'd take my best friend. We'd add some drama because I'd probably scream at her. But [if I chose someone] from Survivor, I think it would be fascinating if Wanda and I were on The Amazing Race. She could sing, I could do the challenges, it would be great.
TVG: What's next for you?
Coby: I'm going back to Tyler, Texas, where I own a salon. [I'll] be enjoying my family. That's what matters in life, being with your family. That is what Survivor taught me.
TVG: So no acting aspirations?
Coby: I'm not going to move to L.A. and chase down that dream. Honey, there are enough people out there. If something came to me, great, but I'm not chasing it.
TVG: Wait, so you didn't go on Survivor for the money?
Coby: Correct.
TVG: And you aren't trying to break into showbiz?
Coby: Correct.
TVG: So you really went just for fun?
Coby: I just had a lot of skeletons in my closet that I wanted to bury. Being on a team sport was one of them. Everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame. At the end of my life, I can say I've been there and done that. I've been in TV Guide. I can die a happy man!

Coby: Sure, only because I am an experience junkie. I would love to do The Amazing Race. But I think Rob and Amber are going to ruin that for me, because if they win, there is no way they'll put me on.
TVG: Who would you take with you?
Coby: I'd take my best friend. We'd add some drama because I'd probably scream at her. But [if I chose someone] from Survivor, I think it would be fascinating if Wanda and I were on The Amazing Race. She could sing, I could do the challenges, it would be great.
LOL thinking about Wanda's crooning!

No, No, No!!! Plugging up my ears.....not Wanda!!!
Oh she wasn't so bad but when she sang, we all thought she sealed her fate. And in an interview, I love these interviews don't I? LOL Anyway, she said she was quiet for that long boat ride while rowing, that took over an hour. She sang only a few songs, b/c everyone asked her to. And that's what the producers decided to air. Wanda said it looked like all she did was sing out there. And she was right - it did. Unfortunately, she'll be the one that sang, Jerry was the one that got really mad, Richard was always nude, Johnny Fairplay lied about his grandmother being deceased, on and on. Poor Wanda - she should never have uttered a note.

Brent - what got me was Janu seemed very surprised to learn she could have quit all along! As if to ask - now why didn't you all tell me that before? Someone else could have had that hammock!!!!
Janu was hard to peg. You could tell Stephanie was trying to figure out Janu's motives for even wanting to go on Survivor. I must admit I was also. Sure some of the girls seem less competent - Katie or Jen - but Janu just seemed very out of her element.

PS - edit, here's the Friday morning TV Guide Survivor critique. Had to laugh at the UPS get-up reference to Jeff Probst's attire last night....I noticed he was wearing all brown too. Like a uniform!

What the heck?!? Janu just quit in the most bizarre and lackluster way. Like I guess I'll give up, I don't really like any of you people, you don't like me because of my annoying eating habits and bug-eyed looks. And I know I just came back from a rejuvenating night in isolation but maybe you should just keep Steph around for a few more days. Did she not want to win a million dollars? Does dancing in Sin City pay that well? Couldn't beat watching an adorably cleaned up Coby just shaking his head in disbelief that his former alliance mate threw in the towel. If only he had thought about using She-ra's crocodile tear strategy last week maybe he'd still be in the game. And Jeff, dressed like your friendly neighborhood UPS man, is way more chatty and probing here in Palau. He broke Janu's spirit during the underwater challenge, not that it was too difficult to push her over the edge, and then basically encouraged Steph's teary-eyed speech. Break alliances and encourage people to lay down their torches, I guess that is what brown can do for you. — Angel Cohn

Laughs at all of Coby's comments and Janu's "lightening bolt" that she could quit anytime she wanted, HA!
Did you see her face light up when Coby walked out???? That gave it away to me. I have been amazed that they haven't shown more folks tossing their cookies after food rewards as your stomach does shrink and they gorge and there is no room for anything and they just keep on.
I hope Stephanie gets to go further, just because she has tried so hard and is a good sport or has been so far.
I am disappointed in Tom, I thought he would hold up his agreement with her and talk the others into keeping her, or at least try, it was like, he said one thing and Gregg said no, so he didn't try anymore.....maybe he did more off screen that we didn't see, but was disappointed in him all the same. Also thought he would add a twist and give Stephanie the immunity necklace, but he didn't even get asked did he?
