Survivor: South Pacific: A New Season has Arrived
A new season of Survivor has begun and that means it is time for Sir Griffin to begin blogging once again. I have to say that I really like this cast of characters. It has everything one would want, but most of all three extremely hot babes. Again, I renew my call for a season of nothing but hot babes, but I digress.
After our 16 new castaways rowed ashore, Jeff informed them that they would be aided by two former castaways.
Immediately it turned into a chorus of "not Russell" which young Brandon Hantz (who based on the on screens displays apparently does not work because his occupation was listed as Russell's nephew) found amusing. We learned that Brandon has tattoos that say "Hantz" that he does not want anyone to see thus he plans on keeping his shirt on the entire time. We also learned that Brandon has a boob fetish, but more on that later.
We already know that the returning players are Coach and Ozzy. They were easily recognized and it was clear as to which player the teams lusted for, (Hunt: not Coach) Those two broke eggs filled with paint (I'd hait to see those chickens) to see which tribe they would be assigned to. Ozzy's egg bled red so that put him on Savaii. Coach had the blue egg and he went to Upolu. Ozzy was welcomed with open arms. Coach was not. Once that was complete our two old faces would have to compete in a challenge to see which team got flint and Taro. It was fairly close until the end when they had to complete a tower of Hanoi puzzle. Each team got into the act act screaming out help, but in the end it was Ozzy who won. As we all know, Coach is essentially useless in challenges.
Also at this time John, or Cochran as he prefers, proclaimed himself the Survivor expert and immediately made himself a target. Just wanted to throw that in.
As usual, we had a tale of two tribes. One tribe was out to have fun and laugh and play games, while the other went right to work. Let's start with Savaii who were out to have fun. It started when a woman named Semhar recited poetry. As you know I despise poetry, but Semhar had huge cans so I was okay with it. Then Ozzy said they should all go swimming. Now I know that this was nothing more than a ploy to get Elyse & Whitney into their undies because it's exactly what I would have done. Cochran, our resident law student/nerd, felt uncomfortable stripping down and getting in the water with those pretty girls and his pale skin. My goodness where is Phillip and his fuchsia panties when you need him? Ultimately Cochran caved in to pressure and was welcomed by all.
Over at Upolu we learned that Coach speaks Russian and that Christine thinks that it's okay to wander off and look for a hidden immunity idol while pretending to gather firewood or something like that. Anyway, Coach was not really welcomed there like Ozzy was, but over time he seemed to win people over. However, my favorite part was when the super hot and totally luscious Mikayla was working on the shelter and Brandon seemed to be stalking her through the trees. To say this was creepy would be a bit of an understatement, but creepy is sucha good word we will continue to use it. Brandon said Mikayla was flaunting herself, but it just appeared to me that she was working. Now, I do not understand what exactly Brandon's problem was, but I can guess. He likes her. He thinks she's hot and he enjoys looking at her boobs and incredible behind. (mostly the boobs) Message to Brandon: this is life. Women are attractive and heterosexual men like attractive women. It's perfectly natural. She is not bending over to taunt you. Her boobs are not calling you from afar so you will leave your wife. Admire her and move on. Not that difficult a concept Brandon. I did get the idea that, unlike Russell, Brandon was a tad on the religious side and probably was told by someone to avoid looking at beautiful women lest you be tempted. Pish tosh, Brandon. Look at her! She's stunningly beautiful!
Our immunity challenge was a master of a maze to get through followed by a little coconut basketball. Each tribe had to go through some zig zaggy pathways, traverse some painted coconuts, climb over a ten foot wall, dig up a machete, cut some ropes ad then play some hoops. Dang, I'm tired after writing that. Teams were neck and neck the entire challenge and it looked like Savaii could have won except for one problem: Semhar. Semhar could not even get close to the giant hoop with her coconuts. Actually her humongous coconuts may have been the problem because she seemed unable to lift her arms past them to throw. On the basis of the incredible skills of Mikayla, whose coconuts did not interfere with her shots, and what appeared to be one lousy coconut, Upolu won immunity and flint. Coach was happy as he was not going home. Brandon was a little disappointed to be going back to that heathen woman at camp that tempts him with boobies. I can honestly say that I would have no problem with that whatsoever.
So who would be going home for Savaii? Well the discussion at camp came down to Semhar and Cochran.
Jim got really annoyed at Semhar and essentially called her out for her failure to throw coconuts and the fact that she only felt sorta bad about it. Jim was feeling very, very bad and let his feelings show (with an awesome mime routine) and what appeared to be a nice fight had begun. Though it was less intense than I had hoped, the damage was done. Jim and Semhar would not be friendly right now. Probably never.
Tribal council was a hoot. Cochran was feeling like he was being singled out based on what Papa Bear (I like him a lot, but doubtful he'll last very long) had told him. Semhar was lobbying hard based on advice from Ozzy. I did enjoy how Cochran rambled on an on at Tribal and how it was clear that it was either him or Semhar. I also like how he and Semhar held hands while the votes were tallied. In the end it was Semhar that went to Redemption Island by an 8-1 vote. I don't know about you, but I have a feeling there is a distinct possibility of the two of them ending up on RI should Savaii lose the next challenge.
It was a good first episode, but still a little light on the three hotties for my taste. Still, it's difficult to get to know everyone after one episode. I look forward to next week and I hope you do as well.

Yes, I'd stare at Mikayla's boobs too. |

Okay, just one more photo of Mikayla |
