"but Russell is a villain" Heroes vs Villains ep 10.


i loved the line from Jeff Probst in the recap "...but Russell is a villain".. yes he is, & he's a damn good one.

i think the question is whose in control? am i right? & its kinda difficult to tell. Russell is definitely running the show. what he says goes. There's a few who want to disagree with him and act all bad ass & try to get him out but lets face it, they can't. they can't outwit him. Russell is in charge. hate him or love him you can't deny that Russell is great. He sucks in challenges, he doesn't have the numbers, but he has strategy. Russell is in charge, he controls their way of thinking. The only person aside from him who has a mind of her own is Parvati & she's letting Russell think he's in control, so with that is the debate, whose running the show? Russell or Parvati? Sandra likes to think she's this wonderful person with these brilliant plans, but lets face it, Sandra's brilliant plans aren't all that brilliant. Sandra is worthless. She's like that shit stain in your toilet bowl. Its annoying as hell and its only there because you don't want to bother with it. It just lingers & hangs on tight to survive each flush... or in her case each tribal council, but how many flushes can she survive? We've seen amazing game play, amazing, never before done, never before thought of moves from Russell & Parvati this season, there's not a doubt in my mind those two will be in the final. I say that every week in my blogs because 1.) at the start of the show they were my favorites, i've seen their past game play & no one else's compares. & 2.) there's been a few times (w/ Randy, Tyson, Boston Rob, even tonight) i was on the edge of my seat thinking "OH NO! DON"T LET ME DOWN!!" & i'm not gonna lie i've been worried a time or two, but they always pull thru, why? because they are strategic geniuses!! but with Sandra the shit stain sitting on the fence & in a good position its very likely she'll make it to the end (or atleast until the final 5/4... thats when the game gets REALLY interesting! the wrong person winning an immunity screws everything up!) with the jury already started its panning out to be a final 3, if Sandra makes it to the end, will the jury award her, a shit stain & a hanger on & a complete waste of space who has done absolutely nothing & set out nearly every tribal immunity challenge, the money for no other reason than their hatred (and arguably jealousy..) of Russell & Parvati?? Only time will tell....

the merge! i love the merge, the merge never disappoints because just when you think you have things figured out (see the 1st half of my blog!) the merge throws a wrench in that scenario. There's always that one person who flops to save themselves.. Susie, Erinn, Shambo.. just to name a few in the past couple of seasons.. and it gets them a lot farther than what they would have gotten if they hadn't jumped shipped, but it never gets them to the end, it just helps the minority take control. We've already seen Sandra jump ship, but i dont think she's that swing vote for this time like in seasons past. it was a given she'd jump ship, she's a floater, a coat tail rider, thats what they do, i'd be shocked if she didn't. Now Amanda!.. amanda, amanda, amanda, i must say, i'm proud of you girl! smart girl! ol' Poopert & JT aren't exactly good people to go to for advice & now that she has other options it looks as if she's taking advantage of them! Kudos to you, but is it too late to make any power moves? i mean up until this point the girl has been... well basically the same as Sandra, only not only does she lack strategy, she even lacks personality, which makes her worse than a shit stain on your toilet.. she's more like a stain in your underwear. She's there to do nothing except ruin your day & force you to throw away your tighty whities... scratch that, everyone that wears tighty whities should just throw them away regardless. stain or not. she makes you throw away your boxer briefs, your favorite pair & its not so bad cause with a personality like hers she needs to be thrown out, she's kinda boring.... but in tonights episode, she appears to be latching on to the right set of coat tails. she's traded in Rupert & JT for someone smart... then she blows it! is it too late to regret it & try & fix it? we'll have to wait & see

Rupert as we know i hate him. & the dumbfounded look on his face when Jerri said "we're all villains" & his reaction... it just makes me dislike him even more. He's so stupid. stupid is an understatement. I'm done looking at him each week. "If Sandra is true, Russell is playing us. This is where the game gets crazy" NO YOU DUMBASS! the game gets crazy from day one! you don't let you guard down, you don't trust everyone, there's a million dollars on the line! jerri is right EVERYONE IS A VILLAIN! EVERYONE WANTS A MILLION DOLLARS!! i don't want to see him get voted out, i want to see him be held down & Jerri pluck every hair out of his body with a pair of tweezers! thats what i want to see! thats how much he annoys me! i really really can't fathom this guy! They don't get much dumber than ol' Rupert. Granted Rupert was the one who wanted Russell gone, but Rupert is the one who put them in this predicament. He's the one who said at the challenge "Ohhh looks like an all girls alliance!" even if you do think something! you don't voice it! you don't let the enemy know what you're thinking! because then they're gonna say, "Golly Day," (okay okay, maybe only JT will say 'GOLLY DAY') "they think they have it figured out! we should capitalize on this!" then thats what they do! then they end up getting an idol that they shouldn't have. So Rupert, its all your fault anyway! it deserves to blow up in your face!

Candice i'm kinda disappointed in Candice for quitting the challenge. I like Candice. She's proven she's a thinker, she's proven she's physically fit, she's proven she has what it takes. She's been outnumbered, now thats an individual game she has so much more to work with, she has so many more opportunities to advance & she drops out of the challenge... tsk tsk Candice, i'm disappointed.

JT now i want to like ol' JT, i do, but i just can't. he's too stupid. as a fan, i pick my favorites the same way i pick my friends in life,i root for the strong, i don't waste my time with the weak. "he's solid man, he's a good ol' country boy!" JT, i'm from the south too. so technically you can call me a country boy too... there's a difference in a country boy and a redneck. Country boys are nice... but Rednecks are stupid.. there's a difference in nice & stupid.. JT, you're a stupid redneck.

Colby, Colby is an underdog to me. He's one of those "ehhh so-so" players to me. He was on the outs & got lucky and managed to stick around, but he hasn't really done anything. he didn't do anything to stick around, he literally, like Sandra, just got lucky. thats it. But being in the shadows & the background is a good position to be in at the merge. (and in the game if you're aiming for a 4th place finish) .. need i say more, Brett?

Amanda i give Amanda credit for her little talk with Parvati. probably the smartest thing she's done all season. But again... its like the lights are on but no one's home. She said in her confessional Parvati is a threat, she wants her idol gone, but she wants Parvati to stay.. so, lemme get this straight? you're voting for someone that you secretly want to stay? how about you get a backbone and stand up for yourself! & her indecisiveness talking to Parvati just before tribal council... you convinced Parvati to admit she has an idol. Parvati put her trust in you, & you're blowing it! She FINALLY comes up with her own, she finally steps out and does something without the assistance of JT & Rupert, & she again blows it. She said in her confessional "Parvati is a threat, Idols are a threat, weed them out!" then she says again in the same sentence "i hope Parvati is safe" ... but Amanda's downfall... she lied & she got caught. This is where a backbone would have came in handy.

Parvati i love her. i do. i'm not even in the game and i'm mesmerized by her. I love that she doesn't care. She's not a follower, she's not a coat tail rider, she stands up for herself and she does whatever she wants because she knows she has the strategy to back it up if anyone wants to disagree with her & her fearlessness is what makes me love her.

Russell now i give Russell credit for a lot of things that have happened in this season, but this all girls alliance, its difficult, because granted he didn't think of it, he didn't even come up with it, but when he found out that the heroes mistakenly thought this, he jumped at the chance to take advantage of it and that makes him the greatest player. thats what makes him so great. he looks for these opportunities & he capitalizes on them. This is what separates him from all the others. He takes advantage of anything & everything. his eyes are peeled & he not only looks out for himself, but his alliance as well. His alliance doesn't even need a strategy, he has enough of one for all of them... unfortunately for him tho, his alliance, Parvati, DOES have a strategy of her own.. & i know he said at the end of tribal she had some explaining to do.. that translates to "you have some lashes you need to bat".. and thats what she'll do, and she'll get out of his cross hairs.

Sandra her attitude & her one liners kinda left me hanging tonight. she kinda fell flat for me. i dont like her trying to take charge. she's far more entertaining in the backseat.. as most women are, but i'm referring to a whole different thing... she doesn't have what it takes to pull it off. She says it herself, she aligns with the majority. she needs to just let the majority take control. She's useless without them & like she said tonight if she keeps opening her "big mouth" it will make her a target. right now she's in a good spot for the final 3, she shouldn't jeopardize that.

Danielle I loved Danielle in this episode. She was not only strategizing on the beach with her alliance, but she was watching for Sandra as well. She kept Sandra from confirming what she already thought. She stepped up to Parvati & refused to hand her immunity because she already has an idol. Danielle didn't seem to mind if Parvati lost her idol tonight and put herself in danger in the coming weeks, she wanted immunity tonight & she got it. However, not catering to Parvati may have won her an immunity necklace, but lets face it she wasn't in any kind of danger anyway, I love that she stood her ground but was it a good move for her in the future?

Jerri i like Jerri, but her problem is her inability to hide her feelings. She's someone i'd love to play poker with (if i played poker) because when she gets excited her face lights up like Christmas morning! when she's upset or bothered she looks like she just witnessed someone stomping a kitten.


So Amanda convinced Parvati to confide in her, again couldn't stay true to what she really felt, blew this great cover! The heroes could have had the upper hand, Amanda blew it for them! Amanda is the reason.. now personally I think the villains could have overcame the minority & finished this season strong anyway, however Amanda probably wouldn't have been on the chopping block so soon. Her inability to think for herself & stick with her true feelings has finally caught up with her. Now the previews for next week show Parvati & Russell's alliance crumbling.. Parvati has a nice body & a little gold bikini, Russell won't betray her. I think they're both safe, not to mention the previews have a history of being misleading. & Sandra "taking control" haha, yeah not gonna happen. The woman is so successful at this game because she relies on everyone else. Why would she step up now and start calling the shots? its not gonna happen. my predictions for next week is adios Amanda. don't double cross Parvati. she is the greatest female strategist to ever play this game and as i said, her little gold bikini controls the mind of the greatest male strategist to ever play this game.. double cross one, you double cross both & with Jerri & Danielle bowing at her feet.. Amanda is in big trouble.

Whats your predictions?
