TV Review: Survivor Micronesia - Devil Went Down to Micronesia
Published April 18, 2008
There’s more Parvati ranting to come. Ozzy, Amanda, Erik, and Jason returned from the reward. When asked how everything was, Ozzy told them the food was great and that the experience was interesting. Parvati complained to her girlfriends how annoying it was of Ozzy to talk about the trip. Um, you asked him how it was … Parvati will now be referred to as ‘the brat’, due to my extreme annoyance.
Apparently, I’m not the only one sick of Parvati. James and Amanda started talking together and knew she was playing two alliances. James and Amanda began to wonder how much they could trust her.
Honestly, if Parvati thinks she’s going to win at this point, she’s sadly mistaken. No matter what alliance she sticks with, half the camp hates her. She’s lost half the votes right there, and let’s face facts — she doesn’t have the best strategy. My prediction is no matter who she would go against, she’d lose. She’s betrayed too many people.
The immunity challenge was a repeat of a challenge from a previous season. Each survivor would have their arm tethered to a bucket filled with water. They would have to hold their arm up or else the bucket would dump the water on them. The last person to have their bucket dumped on them would get immunity.
Everyone held strong in the first part of the game, but when Jeff started bringing out treats for the losers to eat, people started giving up. Eventually it was down to Parvati and Jason. Jeff told the tribe that if one of them were to give up now, there would be a tray of treats for everyone. Jason agreed to give up the challenge if his tribe mates could guarantee they would not vote him out. Everyone agreed, though some crossed their fingers when doing so. It seemed like a deal with the devil for both the tribe and Jason. Either the tribe would betray him and Jason would get nothing out of the deal, or the tribe would have to stay true and get rid of someone who they liked more. Either way, the deal was made and Jason reluctantly gave up the challenge, making Parvati the winner.
Afterwards, Ozzy, James, and Amanda wanted to take back their word, thinking that Jason should have known better. Cirie, however, wanted to take this vote to get rid of the immunity idol and Ozzy. She figured that since Ozzy the Fishman figured that Jason was leaving that he wouldn’t know that they were voting for him and wouldn't play his idol. Ozzy and James had a bad feeling about the vote but chose to ignore it.
I’m gonna cut right to who was voted out so I can rant. Ozzy was voted out. I was so angry. Out of all the people there, Ozzy deserved to win the most. I mean, in a way, I’m frustrated that Ozzy didn’t play the idol. He should have followed his instincts. What did he have to lose? Worst case scenario: he wasted the idol, Jason is still gone, and he would have won the rest of the immunity challenges. Jason was the only one that really gave him competition, everyone else was just following behind. In any case, it was a prime time to use the idol and he wasted it.

"Out of all the people there, Ozzy deserved to win the most."
Deserve has nothing to do with it, and when you stand out as the strongest physically you usually lose other than Tom the Fireman. Besides the only person who ever deserves to win is the one who does.
Ozzy was way to cocky and needed to play the social game better much like Eliza before him, and he didn't. He should have been voted out by Chet and the gang. I am sure his having the idol and not telling anyone played a part in his dismissal. Kudos to Eliza for that because not many impact the game after they leave.
Please don't call Erik the Fishman. It was already annoying with Ozzy.








Good recap. Ozzy was one of my favorites too. But here's what pissed me off:
He told Jason he was safe. He had a deal much like a temporary alliance if you will. Now, he backstabbed Jason. But got pissed off that people backstabbed him.
Hello, Karma.
