Jon Hall is the first castaway to be voted out and the first jury member in Survivor Philippines Celebrity Showdown.Jon Hall played hard and left with a whimper. That's what you get when you are so obvious in your game play. In the end, his immunity bracelet got wasted since he chose to play the knight in shining armor to his damsel in distress.
So with that move, Michelle Madrigal will be on my TV for another week, maybe. Job Hall is the perfect bootee - he's an immunity threat. But Jon is easier to watch on TV than Michelle.
I hate that Michelle cries at a drop of a hat, insinuating that they were being ganged up on - she and Jon against the entire tribe. Boohuuu... How easily she forgets strutting on Nagar like a pretty little princess to Jon Hall's king of the jungle when she was in the dominant alliance with Jon and that idiot Ian Batherson.
At any other time I would have rooted for Jon to win Survivor he's the close to the epitome of a winner - just tone down the strategizing a bit and lose Michelle and he's perfect. However, casting Michelle Madrigal screwed him from the very beginning. To put it bluntly, the Survivor producers screwed the game for him because they were clearly after drama not good game play and strategy.
Now, Michelle, if she is Survivor game savvy or perhaps has two brain cells left to rub together, can take advantage of her position as a swing vote in a tribe of nine to stay further in the game.
But knowing her strategy, or the lack of it, Michelle will just wait for luck to fall her way. Acting your way into making your tribemates into reconsidering voting you out does not a strategy make.
Now I have to suffer a one or two episodes showing Michelle lamenting her recently booted beau and how she really wants out of the game.
And now if one member of that tribe is smart enough to get away from that herd mentality, they will let Michelle stay and vote out Akiro Sato or Ervic Vijandre. It's time to weed out the strongest.
papa jon!
