YOUR FAVORITE LOGO TV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

"Survivor" Liveblog: "Actions vs. Accusations"

We'll be liveblogging tonight starting at 8:00 p.m. ET - hope you'll join us! Here's a preview:

I'll be joined by my friend Brian who will be occasionally chiming in with snark, reactions and Survivor wisdom. Oh and by the way, we're also on a date and this is how we roll. So make sure to make him feel welcome! We'll get started in a few minutes.

8:00 p.m. - and we're off! reviews in progress. Rocker must have been 'roiding before this show—he looks way too veiny. Val went bye-bye after lying about the immunity idol. Back to current game play. He may be hot in the daytime, but John Rocker doesn't look very good in night vision. Rocker looked like he was performing fellatio on Josh, which is unfortunate given his homophobic past. Weaving begins, and Drew is slacking off and not contributing to the work. From Brian: "It's hard to weave when you're hot." He is pretty hot, actually. I'll try to dig up a pic of him somewhere. And we're on break.

8:08 - and we're back! and the violins start to play with Jeremy complaining about Val getting sent home. Rocker admitting to working with Val is not smart at all. Reward challenge starts. Playing for bedding, or trade for fishing gear. The father-son team are squaring off and I gotta tell ya, that country kid Wes is a teeny bit hot. In sort of a backwoods Tennessee kinda way. Looks like they're neck-and-neck. Keith just had a serious save and almost lost his plate, but ends up dropping his next one—and Wes wins. The father-son duo get emotional and hug it out. Wes chooses Josh to go to Exile Island. From Brian: "Did he pick his dad a boy toy on purpose?" Jeremy still whining about Val. And we're on break!

8:20 - back from break right where we left off—with Jeremy complaining again. And he's totally outing John Rocker as saying "sexist and homosexual" things, which, for readers of this blog, sounds exciting. he meant homophobic, but whatever. Rocker's gal pal is descending in to tears because she feels targeted. Cut to Exile Island with our fabulous Broadway gay and Country Keith. I'm thinking that Josh is enjoying this visit to EI more than Keith. "There ain't gonna be no spooning going on." Keith lays down the law.

8:26 - when you pan back from Rocker in night vision while he's wearing wet board shorts, I approve of that. Baylor is starting to seriously get on my nerves. A lot like Big Brother, it seems like the guys are ganging up on the gals. We'll see how that works out for them. and we're on break.

8:31 - back with the immunity challenge. With Keith and Josh returning from EI, Brian started singing "One Night Only" from Dreamgirls. And that make me cackle. Anyway, back to the competition. This is an athletic challenge and so Rocker had better do well. this is a tough competition and really favors people who can be both athletic and have hand-eye coordination. Rocker and Jaclyn bust their way through and he makes it on the first try, bringing them to within one of wining. This is a balls-to-the-wall competition and Hunapu wins for the third time, and the trash talking starts with Rocker, who stands their stone-faced. Natalie talking smack and Rocker says, "If you were a man I'd knock your teeth out." Well then. That bodes well for any guy who crosses him in the future. From Brian: "Allegedly, John Rocker was recruited for the show and never really liked it." Which might explain his overall disdain for being there maybe. And we're on break.

8:42 - Oh Baylor, honey, you're definitely gonna have votes. Rocker's point about Josh being his closest ally is a good one, though, in that people can change and attitudes can shift. Related sidebar: Rocker's eyes are pretty amazing. Josh is rethinking the whole Rocker-is-my-ally thing, but he's dumb to do that since John is such a strong player. Now the scheming begins on how to get John out. Tribal council debriefing begins, and the gals are asserting that a shift may be happening away from guy-centric alliances. But if Rocker uses his immunity idol, it will be another gal going home—most likely Baylor. "Grow some balls and vote one of the guys out." We'll see what happens. The interesting thing to me is that Rocker is clearly an asset in the game, despite his nasty mouth. why didn't John use his immunity idol? Brian and I are both stumped. Well then: Rocker's mouth got him in hot water before, and it got him voted out of Survivor now, too. Do you guys think this blindside is what this tribe needs? I highly doubt that given how much of a physical threat Rocker is. Oh well, no more Rocker Candy for Will.

That's a wrap guys! thanks for joining us. Brian said he had fun, and I hope you did, too! We'll see you right back here next Wednesday night. Until then, have a great week and weekend.
