The Snake is Spared As Peih-Gee Eliminated on Survivor

Props to Survivor 's Peih=Gee -- she was a good competitor. But she had to go.

As I said in my post this morning (Who Will Come in Fifth Place on Survivor?), if Amanda knew what was best for her, she'd stick with Todd. For now. Peih-Gee would have won a jury vote -- she played hard, she was the underdog, and her former tribemates make up the majority of the jury. And giving Todd the chance to sway the jury was a risk Amanda just couldn't take.

But now that Peih-Gee is gone, anything is fair game. Neither Denise or Courtney will be able to make much of a case for themselves, which means Todd and Amanda are now each other's biggest threat. Both played strategically -- Amanda more subtly than Todd, but she stabbed some back as well. If either has the chance to eliminate the other in the Final Four, they should take it.

The rest of the show was pretty run-of-the-mill: Denise couldn't eat the gross food item; Courtney once again proved she has absolutely no skills whatsoever; and Todd and Amanda both continued to actively, and wisely, strategize. Still, I can't wait for Sunday's finale.
