Survivor Stock Ticker: Episode Eight

By John Powell – Binge News

There was lots of scrambling this week as many of the Survivors battled to steer the bus. Amazingly, even Ben tried to slide into the driver’s seat. How can you tell the endgame is coming soon, eh? You got to give it to the players though. They didn’t take the easy out. They took out the big threat Hunter and left the D.O.A. Quintavius in the game for another week. It would be different if the castaways actually listened to Q but they all would rather align with a palm tree or hermit crab at this point since he cannot be trusted. What’s with Jiffy flat-out telling a team they have no chance at winning the challenge? As a host he is supposed to be objective. He isn’t supposed to side with one tribe or another, one player or another.

Here is how some people felt:

Jesus, @jeffprobst just calling out the team of misfits – pretty shitty.

Nobody likes "Spicy Jeff" @JeffProbst. Reminds me of the very first Survivor, where you were arrogant and condescending, like telling Greg Buis he "really stunk" (as if he could help it). It was a turn-off then, and it's a turn-off now.#Survivor46 #Survivor

I feel like Jeff Probst has entered his nasty, middle aged male phase of life, sometimes known as manopause.#Survivor46

Jeff Probst was extra extra annoying tonight

On with this week’s Survivor Stock Ticker:

I am surprised he made it this far after the merge. With the endgame in sight nobody wants a challenge beast around. Hunter just didn’t have the social bonds, game to offer him that support and protection.

Well, despite her attitude nobody can say she isn’t trying. In the last few episodes Venus has flexed her strategic muscles. She has done a lot of lobbying. She isn’t improving her social game at all though.

Another big push for Liz last night. Everyone is looking to build and improve their resumes. Is Liz too late to the party though?

Kenzie cutting Tiffany loose, making a move against her BFF shows how much she wants to win this game. She really is that mermaid dragon after all.

More and more Ben’s name is being brought up as a possible target.

At least when you hit rock bottom there isn’t any further to fall is there?

Things cannot get any worse for you when your closest ally leads a charge to stab you in the back. Tiffany’s idol is the only thing stopping her from taking a seat on the jury at this point.

Who’s next to go?

His time is almost up.

With her idol being public knowledge and her allies throwing her under the bus her jury seat is waiting for her.

Like Q, it is not IF but WHEN she will be booted.
