‘Survivor’ sends two castaways home

The tribe has spoken — twice: Dave Ball was voted out at the first of two Tribal Councils, and he wasn’t blindsided; he knew he was probably going to be voted out.

Another castaway goes home on ‘Survivor’

Rocket scientist John Fincher flipped on his tribe last week to save himself, and they repaid him by voting him out this week.

Bartender Erik Cardona, 28, was voted out of the newly merged tribe, and became the first jury member and this season’s biggest blindside. “Wow, wow, wow,” he said after being voted out while holding a hidden immunity idol, which he didn’t play because “you can’t defend against something that’s invisible.” His strategizing around camp seemed [...]

On ‘Survivor,’ the weak shall not inherit

New York lawyer Elizabeth Kim, 33, was voted off Foa Foa. Russell was annoyed by her constant talking — and by the threat she posed to his strategy.

Swan dive brings some drama to ‘Survivor’

Russell Swan, the hard-working leader of Galu, was removed out of the game after passing out during the reward challenge, but he kept fighting until the end.
