Well, here we are again, Big Brother fans.
Just two weeks ago, Donny and Nicole were sitting next to each other on the block, ensuring that one of this season’s sweet-as-pie contestants would be evicted. This time around, the set-up was exactly the same — only the results were different.
But before we get into Donny’s inevitable exit, let’s revisit this rather predictable week in the Bb house:

Apologies for this late recap of Thursday (July 17) night's "Big Brother." Television Critics Association press tour is causing all sorts of time crunching. Where were we? Oh right! Donny upset the field and won the PoV and then used it to protect Jocasta, whose most important piece of gameplay all season has been getting violently ill when she was on the Block and letting Donny rescue her. Let's get down to business! 9:02 p.m. Why is the camera shaking? Stop shaking the camera. 9:02 p.m. The episode begins in the aftermath of Donny's heroic liberation of Jocasta from the Block. Caleb knows that if something bad happens, his decision to put himself on the Block could be one of the dumbest in "Big Brother" history. After several weeks in virtual anonymity, Jocasta is a bit nutty with tearful gratitude. 9:03 p.m. Speaking of nutty, Caleb is in...

It's family day on Last Resort. Well, almost. Unfortunately before the crew can get their day with family members much like contestants on Survivor, the boat transporting them all to the island is captured by the Pakistani Navy.
"Cinderella Liberty" took a hostage situation, the missing nuclear launch key, the Navy Seal conspiracy, and the conflict between Pakistan and India, mixed them all together and came up with an entertaining if not stellar episode.
Let's hit some of the highlights…
Marcus' back was up against the wall as he tried to bluff the Pakistani Navy. They wanted him to launch a nuclear missile at their enemies. There was one small problem. Marcus didn't have the launch key.
I really enjoyed Cortez as the mole as she had an obvious conscience. Far too often a mole is portrayed as one dimensional or as a strict traitor. That wasn't the case here.

Here’s a dirty little secret of mine: I love Survivor. Like Love. No one I know watches it other than my parents and my dear friend Norman Baker, and no matter how I try to convince people that it’s probably the most satisfying show on TV and that Jeff Probst is a Mensa-level reality show host, people don’t bite. To which I saw “their loss” while shielding myself from the Rains of Los Angeles under a tarp I bought at Fred Segal in my backyard and eating hummus with my hands. This season — the 24th if you can imagine — has been hit or miss. There are two grizzly old men named Tarzan on it, a handsome little person, some hot dumb guys, and a bunch of women who are, simply put, simple. Out of all the Survivors sent to that island, there has been only one person...

Benjamin "Coach" Wade was the runner-up of "Survivor: South Pacific." He tells Zap2it that he wouldn't do anything differently and that he is now retired from the game of "Survivor."
Are you glad you went back to Survivor? Was it everything you hoped it would be?
"I'm very glad that I came back and did 'Survivor' for a third time. It was great all around. I mean I got to coach Cochran, I got to lead my tribe from start to finish and I made it all the way to the end."
Do you wish you would've done the final Tribal Council differently?
"A little trouble is always tricky. I've seen people come in and be too arrogant like Russell and lose because of it, and then other people come in to humble. I tried to find the right mixture of humility and also owning my actions.

Survivor: South Pacific castoff Christine Shields Markoski was throwing down a lot of knowledge about her Upolu enemies. So why didn't Ozzy pick it up?' "I don't get it," the outspoken teacher told us today about the Savaii leader's sacrifice—futile, as it turns out—when she made it "absolutely clear" she had no loyalty to her former tribe. Read on to hear what else Christine told us about Ozzy's "myopic" move, her real opinion of Coach, and Cochran's betrayal… So now that you've watched the episodes, what do you think of Ozzy's diabolical plan? Christine: It was somewhat myopic—I don't think he...

After 14 straight days of near-solitude on Redemption Island, you'd expect Survivor's Christine Shields Markoski to be relieved she was sent home. But the 39-year-old teacher says she was unfazed by an experience that would drive most people to the brink. "It was just very natural for me to be on Redemption Island. It was fine!" Christine identified herself as a tough cookie from Day 1. In the season premiere, as the other tribe members welcomed veterans Ozzy and Coach with open arms, Christine publicly called them "temporary players." We chatted with the nature-loving New Yorker about her experience, whether she regrets her attitude toward the vets, and what she would have done differently if given the chance.

Christine Shields Markoski was voted out first by her tribe on Survivor: South Pacific. But it’s not easy to keep a punk rock loving Long Island teacher down! The ousted Upolu member won five straight duels — even while her former tribe openly rooted against her — and was one away from reentering the game before finally losing to Ozzy. Which side would she have joined had she made it to the merge? What does she think of John Cochran’s big switcheroo? And why was she giving Jeff Probst — and not Rick — the finger? All answers were revealed when...

After Ozzy Lusth voted himself out of Survivor South Pacific last week, I really, really wanted the Savaii tribe's plan to fall apart, with Ozzy losing to Christine at Redemption Island, or the merge not showing up as planned. But their plan worked perfectly: He easily beat Christine, who'd previously won an incredible six challenges in a row, and the tribes merged. The way their plan actually backfired was far more entertaining than I ever...

If you missed one of the most bizarre moves in Survivor history, make sure you catch up with last week's recap.
This week's episode begins at Savaii the night of the last Tribal Council. Cochran notes how quickly the game changes, and thanks to Ozzy's plan, it has changed quickly again. The move may go down as one of the biggest moves in Survivor history. Cochran addresses the group about what he should say to Upolu upon The Merge. He's pretended to like the members of his tribe for eighteen days, he can pretend to like Upolu. Ozzy arrives at Redemption Island and tells Christine that Cochran pulled out the Hidden Immunity Idol and ousted him. He then confesses that his move could have been the craziest thing he has ever done, or, in the alternative, the ballsiest.
The next morning, Christine and Ozzy arrive at the Ri Arena with...

“It’s a little bit surreal, but also a little bit exciting, that I am the person right now who gets to decide how Survivor: South Pacific takes shape, and possibly ends.”
Call that statement the rantings of a guy on an ego trip, if you must, but it doesn’t mean Cochran wasn’t spot-on about his position in the newly merged Te Tuna tribe during this week’s episode.

Karma's a bitch. The question tonight on Survivor: South Pacific was whether that bitch is named Christine or Cochran. Could Upolu's original outcast Christine and six-time Redemption Island champ continue her winning streak and send her opponent, Ozzy, straight to the Survivor Hall of Shame? Or did the veteran's diabolical plan to sacrifice himself, beat Christine, even the tribe's numbers in the merge and rely on Spy Kid Cochran to be Savaii's mole actually succeed? The short answer: Ozzy pulled it off. With all the Castaways looking on, he soundly defeated Christine in the R.I. duel and immediately returned to the game as the two tribes merged.

Some well-written and delivered lines and a disappointing premiere make up this week’s Rewind, Speakeasy’s look at the week’s TV highlights and lowlights.
Let’s start with the lowlights: After a much-anticipated return of “Chuck” for a final season, the show came up short with its private spy angle. Worse though, a Chuck with no Intersect is a dull Chuck. The show, after all, isn’t called Morgan.
Another lowlight was on “Survivor.

"Oh my gosh, it was everything and more. You think, 'Oh yeah, yeah, I'm gonna be on Survivor, awesome' and then it's day 7 and you're like 'I'm starving, what was I thinking?!' This show has taught me so much, showed me how strong I can be ... I'm a very trusting person and it just shows some people in this world aren't going to like you."
Speaking of people who don't like you tell us about Brandon. He had you pegged as quite the "scarlet woman."
"Oh my gosh, could you believe him? My family and my friends were like dying laughing. I'm the biggest tomboy.

Ozzy has owned his fair share of boneheaded moves in the past, but this latest one could well take the cake: after losing what looks likely to be the last tribal immunity challenge going into the merge, Ozzy volunteers to be sent to Redemption Island so that he can personally knock reigning duel champion Christine out of the game for good, keep the numbers even for his tribe, and make it home in time for the traditional merge feast. His tribe, almost uniformly unsold on the plan,...

Last night's Survivor saw what is perhaps the show's biggest, most daring move: getting yourself eliminated to kick out a possible threat on Redemption Island, and return just in time for the merge. And Ozzy, he who was put in a precarious position last week, has done just that.
At first glance the whole thing makes sense. Christine has been doing so well in Redemption Island that she can be quite a threat when (and if) she returns to the game after the merge -- and since the game shifts to individual mode by then, you have to eliminate anyone who gets between you and a million dollars. Also, with both tribes pretty even at this point, Christine's return will give Upolu a one-member advantage. Oh, and it makes Ozzy a hero to the rest of the Savaii tribe, and considering what happened before, he definitely needs it.

After more than a decade as host of Survivor, it takes a lot to shock Jeff Probst. But at tonight's South Pacific Tribal Council, Jeff's jaw dropped in amazement (actually he was so astonished he might have dislocated it) at one Castaway's "ballsy" sacrifice. So who fell on the sword—and mortally wounded their own tribe? In his third attempt at winning Survivor's million-dollar prize, Ozzy Lusth actually snuffed his own torch. Why exactly? It's complicated. With the outnumbered Savaii tribe predicting a merge, Ozzy assigned himself the task of knocking out five-time Redemption Island champ Christine at the next duel. If he succeeds, and the merge does...

More and more, I'm coming around on Coach and Ozzy being in this game. Starting out, I was bugged by their lack of history, their unevenness, the complete dearth of any connective tissue between the two other than, "Hey, these guys played the game a couple of times, they were pretty popular, and it worked for us last season, so why not bring 'em back?" Now, I'm starting to get on board, precisely because these two are such imperfect players.
Let's start with Ozzy. The Savaii alpha male got knocked down a peg or two last week when Elyse, his not-so-secret back-pocket ally and warm body to snuggle with, was booted from the tribe behind his back. (She was permanently removed from the game in this episode, too, when she lost her Redemption Island duel against the increasingly awesome Christine.) Instead of licking his wounds and thinking...

This week’s edition of Survivor: South Pacific examined an important question — and thankfully it had nothing to do with whether or not Edna’s blind loyalty to Coach would result in her eventually serving as Ozzy’s Chief Hiney-Wiping Officer. (More on that horrific image in a moment.)
No, as Jeff Probst so astutely framed it, Tribal Council asked the members of Upolu which type of tribemate they’d rather have heading into a possible merge: The physically stronger player (Mikayla) who could help them win the final pre-merge immunity challenge and enter a blended tribe with a numbers advantage,...

On "Survivor: South Pacific," the losing tribe has some decisions to make about merge vs. immunity, numbers vs. loyalty and strength vs. lapdog.
Redemption Island
Christine vs. Elyse in a game of shuffle board. Rick cheers Christine a bit and she flips him the bird with the ol' "scratching your nose" ploy. That was weird. Rick/Sophie and Keith/Ozzy are the observers. Christine wins her fourth duel in a row to stay on the Island. On the way home, Sophie and Rick talk about how Christine is never going to rejoin Upolu if she comes back in the game.
Savaii
Ozzy is obviously not pleased about Elyse's ouster, especially because he wasn't in on it. After Tribal, he has a bit of a fit - says he's done with the alliance and he's a free agent. Done playing for anybody but himself. Um, everybody should be playing for him or herself.

Ozzy is obviously not pleased about Elyse's ouster, especially because he wasn't in on it. After Tribal, he has a bit of a fit - says he's done with the alliance and he's a free agent. Done playing for anybody but himself. Um, everybody should be playing for him or herself.

Mikayla Wingle got voted off "Survivor 23,South Pacific' in episode 6.Tonight's episode kicked off with scenes from last week's episode when Elyse got booted to Redemption Island. Then they showed commentary footage. Ozzy was pissed off,and started pouting to the rest of his tribe,claiming they went behind his back to vote Elyse out. He got very emotional and told them that he had the immunity idol,and he's a free agent now,which was really dumb. After the break, Ozzy's tribe complained that Ozzy behaved like a stupid bitch. At the Upolu tribe,Brandon started looking for the immunity idol that Coach already found,while Coach and Albert laughed at him. Coach also thought that Brandon's actions reminded him of Russell a lot,which scared him. Next, Elyse and Christine battled it out at Redemption Island in their duel. They played shuffleboard,and the first person to...

Christine was looking to repeat Matt Elrod's performance last season by getting back into the game on 'Survivor: South Pacific' (Wed., 8Pm Et on CBS). Meanwhile, Brandon Hantz continues running from the legacy of his Uncle Russell, though ironically Coach noticed this week that he runs exactly like his uncle.
!!Spoiler Alert!!
It was Survivor Shuffleboard at Redemption Island, and Christine kept alive another week, and proved to her tribemates she's still holding a grudge by flipping them the bird when they tried to root for her.

Before her Duel on Wednesday (October 12) night's "Survivor: South Pacific," Stacey Powell must have sensed she was heading home, so the 44-year-old Texas mortician decided to go out with a bang. In the latest in which has become a quickly established tradition of Pre-Duel Rants, Stacey exposed her tribe's core alliance, revealing Coach as the strategic ringleader. But Stacey refused to refer to "Coach," repeatedly calling him "Benjamin," much to Jeff Probst's amusement. [Coach's subsequent in-camp temper tantrum proved that Stacey had smartly targeted a sore spot.] Stacey's actual loss in the Duel with Christine wasn't nearly as...

Stacey Powell was booted off of Upolu on "Survivor: South Pacific" and once at Redemption Island, she had no problem telling anyone who would listen what was going on with their tribe. She tells Zap2it that she's ready to let bygones be bygones with Coach.
Are you glad you did 'Survivor'? Was it everything you expected/ hoped it would be?
"Yes! Yes it was. Most definitely. I knew it was going to be hard, but I knew I was going to need to fit in with every body and that is the hard social part."
How mad were you when the tribe booted you off after you almost won that strength challenge for them?
"Ughh! I was mad but I accepted it because I knew it was either going to be me or Edna. I think it was me because... I just don't think they went with...

If you missed last week's episode of Survivor: South Pacific, catch up with my recap here.
This week's installment begins at Redemption Island where Stacey arrives and wakes up Christine. Stacey tells Christine that Coach is running things at Upolu. She thinks Coach is acting "holier than thou," but he will receive his comeuppance soon because when Stacey has the chance, she is going to spill the beans on Coach and his alliance.
The next morning at Upolu, Brandon notifies the tribe that Tree Mail has arrived. He complains to the camera that Mikayla said she didn't like him because he's a Hantz. He protests that he doesn't care what people think about him...but his tears betray his true feelings. Albert and Mikayla go to the Ri Arena, as do Dawn and Whitney. Stacey tells Savaii that "Benjamin" is running the tribe, and that they are a bunch of liars.

It's night 11 on Survivor and Stacey's just arrived on Redemption Island with Christine. She breaks the news that Coach is running things and says she doesn't think things are as "hunky dory" as they claim it is. She says Tribal was "fake" and Coach is a "joke" and she can't wait to spill everything she knows to the players. The next morning on Upolu, Brandon is reflecting on the emotions at Tribal. He thinks Mikayla's answer to what she doesn't like about him (the fact he's a Hantz) was pretty prejudiced and he gets teary-eyed when he says he is a good person. The Duel Stacey calls her former teammates Albert and Mikayla liars and warns Dawn and Whitney to watch out for them. She says that "Benjamin" is running things for the tribe, and when Jeff quizzes why she chose to call Coach by his birth name,...

My sympathies go out to anyone who happened to be eating dinner — especially if it was pork (or even a pork byproduct) — during tonight’s spectacularly disgusting immunity challenge on Survivor: South Pacific.
The showdown featured Upolu and Savaii battling to see which tribe could tear more meat off a pair of roasted pigs in a 10-minute period — with the contestants’ hands tied behind their backs. As if the sight of players gnawing/tugging at hunks of flesh caught in their comrades’ teeth wasn’t repugnant enough, there was even a “bowl’s eye view” angle from which you...

On this week’s episode of Survivor, "Taste the Victory," Whitney and Keith used a very interesting strategy to get the result they wanted without making the move obvious. How the rest of the Savaii tribe interprets the move will determine its true effectiveness.
Knowing that Jim, Dawn and Cochran were voting for Elyse and that Elyse and Ozzy were voting for Cochran, Keith and Whitney had a choice to make between which group to go with. The challenge they faced was getting the result they wanted – Elyse going home – without alienating Ozzy.
Their solution was to take their two votes and throw them at someone random, in this case Dawn. That made the vote three for Elyse, two for Cochran and two for Dawn. Elyse was sent home – as Whitney and Keith wanted – but they can tell Ozzy they didn’t vote for his former main squeeze.
How will Ozzy react to the move?...

Tonight on "Survivor: South Pacific," we have one of those disgusting (and by "disgusting," we mean "awesome") challenges where the contestants have to gnaw on a pig carcass and spit what they can onto a scale. Excellent.
Post-Tribal
Stacey and Christine bond at Redemption Island. Stacey is pretty mad about being voted off and she should be - she was Not the weakest person on that tribe. She is completely ready to jump ship should she get to go back into the game.
Meanwhile, Brandon is hurt because everybody hates that he's a Hantz. I'm with him on this one - he's a weird little dude, but it's terrible to hate someone because of who their uncle is. That's silly.
Redemption Island
Albert/Mikayla go for Upolu, Dawn/Whitney go for Savaii. Christine and Stacey spill some beans about their dysfunctional tribe. They also keep calling Coach by his real name,...

Usually getting a nickname on Survivor is a sign you've made it far in to the competition - but that was not the case for contestant Mark Caruso. After losing his duel against Christine, Caruso, 48, became the second contestant eliminated from Survivor: South Pacific, but not before his cuddly disposition got him the nickname "Papa Bear." The retired NYPD detective, 48, spoke to People after his elimination and explained what it was like on Redemption Island, how his ally Jim was the reason for his demise, and all about his aspirations to do commercials for Dunkin' Donuts. What was it like on Redemption Island?...

Mark "Papa Bear" Caruso was the second person sent home from "Survivor: South Pacific," but he tells Zap2it he couldn't be happier with the experience of "Survivor."
Are you glad you did Survivor? Was it everything you hoped or expected it to be?
"I had the time of my life. I had this opportunity given to me from Mark Burnett and Jeff Probst. They chose me out of thousands and thousands of people. Best experience of my life. I'm a family guy, I'm a regular guy on the street and they chose me. How can I walk away with anything but the best experience of my life?"
Would you have done anything differently if you could do it over?
I would love that opportunity some day in the future. But I think everything I can do, I did to the best of my ability. A lot of it's...

With this week’s episode of “Survivor: South Pacific,” we’ve officially fallen into that familiar early-season rhythm: a couple of characters remain consistent breakouts (bHantz, we’re looking at you), while the remaining players are either too under the radar to make an impression or are too obviously about-to-be-gone to give a hoot. To that end, this week brought another obvious boot, another person to be permanently removed from the game, and some typically classic Hantz moments. Survivors ready? Go and click past the jump for the full recap!
Episode four begins at Savaii, where there is NuLife for NuCochran: after two tribal councils with his neck on the chopping block, “South Pacific’s” dominant dork is approached by Jim with a secret proposal: target Elyse, their beautiful tribe mate who just so happens to be a bit too cozy with Ozzy for comfort. To them,...

Over at Upolu, Brandon says that his pride has ruined his game, so he's decided to be a better player. He apologizes to Mikayla for his temper, and though Mikayla confesses that it's nice he apologized, maybe he should think before he speaks. Brandon then...

Semhar, Christine and Papa Bear. The first three people voted out of Survivor made sense in terms of strengthening the tribe, as there was no other obvious choices. This week, through?
I can’t justify sending Stacey home ahead of two other very worthy candidates.
Brandon and Edna were insufferable and both were significantly better candidates to be sent to Redemption Island over Stacey. Removing either form the tribe would have improved tribe morale and improved their chances of winning challenges.
(On a side note, what does the record for weight in this week’s challenge stand at? Is it 240 lbs because Brandon and Jim reached 240 lbs, or is it what they successfully accomplished, i.e., 220 lbs? In my opinion it should be the weight that you were actually able to hold. Adding weight and then having the bar fall shouldn’t count for hoisting that amount of weight.)

"Survivor: South Pacific" sees another strong woman voted out and sent to Redemption Island. What else is new?
Post-Tribal at Savaii
Ozzy and Elyse are getting cuddly, which Jim and Cochran are not excited about. Cochran doesn't really trust Jim and his suspiciously white teeth, but he's on board with working together to get Elyse out because it keeps him safe.
Upolu Tribe
Brandon apologizes to Mikayla and she accepts his apology, but she's still very wary of him - she should be. But don't point who his uncle is. That's so ridiculous. Don't buy into "Survivor's" silly schtick with that. My uncle could be a murderer - doesn't make me a murderer.
Brandon then runs to Edna, saying right out loud this is dumb game strategy, and he tells Edna that she's not part of the core five. Oh. My. God. Shut your mouth, dude! Coach is going to kill you.

This week’s Survivor: South Pacific found Little Russell (aka Brandon Hantz) once again proving himself as trustworthy as a campaign promise the day after the polls close. Look, regardless of whether or not you think the guy’s war against perfectly innocent Mikayla — or “the whore of Babylon,” as Sophie kiddingly tried to sum up Brandon’s feelings about the lithe young lady — there’s no denying his actions are putting his alliance at risk.
When Mikayla — quite reasonably — tried to find out what she’d done to incur Brandon’s wrath, he brought her out in front of the entire tribe,...

We’re only three weeks into “Survivor: South Pacific” and already Brandon Hantz is in the running for most unhinged contestant of all time. His big dirty secret came out of the bag in this week’s episode, and despite attempts to shirk his Russellness, Brandon proved to his tribe that he’s still a true blue Hantz in the end. Details on that, some hidden immunity idol shenanigans, the first Redemption Island duel of the season and more await you past the jump!
The episode kicks off as Christine, voted out last week, arrives on Redemption Island and meets her new bunkmate, Semhar. Any meaningful bonding is put aside in favor of dwelling on their own reasons for being ousted from the game.

Survivor South Pacific delivered a good episode last night, though one more notable for its baffling behavior by contestants than for strategy or game play.

In case you missed last week's episode, catch up with my recap here.
The episode begins at Redemption Island where Christine arrives and tries to wake up Semhar. Christine doesn't know what happened at Tribal Council. Maybe her tribe just didn't want someone who was ready to play the game from the beginning. At least Ri gives her another chance to play. Back at Upolu, the tribe returns from Tribal Council. Mikayla can't figure out what she did to Brandon. She's glad Coach took the heat off her at Tribal. Brandon confesses that he regrets his blatant lie, as he didn't want to play like his uncle. "I reap what I sow, man."
The next morning at Upolu, the tribe receives Tree Mail instructing them to send two members to the Ri Arena. Coach and Stacey will go for Upolu. Coach hopes Christine loses so she can't come back to haunt him.

First of all, I need to correct a mistake I made in last week's recap. I thought Brandon was calling Mikayla "Poverty," when actually he was referring to Survivor villain, Parvati. And it turns out that Havarti is a type of cheese, while we're clarifying. Anyway, I wrongly assumed it was some obscure Biblical reference that just didn't make sense. So, if you can forgive me and we can all move forward from that, let's enjoy this season!
So, Christine joins Sad Sack Semhar on Redemption Island, and she blames her tribe not wanting someone "who wanted to play the game" around. Who would you rather see back in the game, Christine or Semhar? I vote for neither of them.
