-Well as
this is the first review I am doing, please don't be
too hard on your critics!:) So, after a Super Bowl
dominated by the Baltimore Ravens that finally ended
a little before 10PM EST we could finally see this
new season premier! So the show finally started
around 10:20PM after what seemed like hours of
endless comments by the analysts!
The show
started off with a presentation of the 16 new
contestants who were chosen out of over 49000
applications! And I must say it looks like a good
choice for the big majority!:) You can get more info
about them in the contestants section of the
page. The first shot was a plane flying towards
the new show set with various views of animals,
insects and different other faboulous views from the
Outback! Then we saw the new introduction
music...It's the same music from last time but with
new images of course!:) The contestants seemed
awfully tired from a long flight (actually there were
several flights for all of them) and some of them
were quite sick actually.. They had not talked to
each other in the plane.. Once there, they had one
big box full of items they would need including water
for a few days! They separated following their maps
to find their new place! Each tribe was to be
separated by 4 miles. It was quite a hike and
officially the first challenge as it wasn't that easy
to find the new emplacements.
The
Ogakor clan was the first to find their emplacement
while the Kucha tribe was really getting tired and
could not find their way...it started raining and
things weren't going very well! Elisabeth was getting
annoyed by Debb already! But they finally got there
and things calmed down! What a first day, it was
raining and was getting pretty cold! The main concern
was to make a place to sleep. So they were cutting
trees, and trying to get it to work.
Back to
the Ogakor plan, they were trying to find out the
perfect place to set up their camp. They had a
big Texas flag was the basis to their new camp as one
of the members had brought it as his luxury item
(can't remember who though!).
They also
showed a few imagesof the Kucha tribe at night where
not many people seemed to sleep! The next morning
they were trying to find stuff to eat but all plants
they were finding had tons of bugs on them! As the
day goes on, Kimmi is getting more and more annoyed
with Debb! Rodger had brought a bible as his luxury
item and they tried using some pages to start their
fire...
After,
Ogakor started to make their fire ! Keith was the one
who seemed to knew how to get it working and was
working very hard to make it work. He was doing the
work with Amber (lucky guy!)... They knew very well
that getting a fire was the first step to getting
boiled water and especially getting food..
Ok, back
to Kucha, they received their first message about the
first challenge. The winning team would get some
matches while the losers would have to vote off a
member! The new challenge was our first look at
returning host Jeff Probst. They had to get torches
and had different things to do with them before
lighting up another torch to win it all. Ogakor took
the early lead and never let go to that
lead!!!!!!!!!! Kucha had one night to think about who
to vote off while Ogakor had a chance to enjoy their
fire and could make some rice!:)) The Kucha tribe was
a big letdown and some people were getting sick,
everyone was feeling down. Debb started telling that
Jeff wanted to go, and when Alicia told him about it,
he couldn't beleive it!
So on
they were going to the tribe council. At that point,
Jeff, Rodger and Debb seemed most likely to be voted
off. They had to light up their torch at first so
that the one voted off would have to give back
his..There was a little conversation before the
actual voting...nothing important was said except
that the other tribe was the enemy for now.. And
Rodger thought it would be hard to vote off
someone... So everyone voted (Debb voted for
Jeff and Kimmi for Debb, the others were unknown)..
So Jeff was to announce the person to be voted
off...: Debb got 5 of the 6 votes that were
reveiled!:))) I was really happy, I didn't like her
very much...
