On Thursday's new episode of "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains," we can very well expect most of the strategy to go out the window in favor of the ever-popular "immunity idol hunt."
Now, I admit that the hidden immunity idol has offered up quite a bit of drama in the past. James left the game with two of them in his pocket, and a number of other people from Ozzy to Brendan to Erik have also fallen victim to the "idol blindside."
However, is this whole search getting a little ridiculous now? Good strategy should still count for something in this game, since it's theoretically possible someone (i.e. Russell) could find an idol every episode, play it, and keep him safe until the end of the game. As Boston Rob and some of the other older players know, the idols have changed the very nature of the game.
Also in this new web video we again see Coach breaking down after being the target of some less-than-favorable comments from some members of his tribe. Granted, we don't know who is making these comments -- but does the Dragonslayer shedding a few tears bring entertainment to the next level?
Check back soon for more "Survivor" coverage, including predictions and interviews. Who do you want to find the idol? Let me know your thoughts with a comment below.
