'Boston Rob' Doesn't Like a Player's Strategy on 'Survivor: Redemption Island' and Blindsides Him (VIDEO)

Boston Rob is no dummy. I'm enjoying his play. He really suckered Philip, the former federal agent (?), lol. Love that question mark CBS shows. I do wish this show was longer because just about the time we really get into the strategy, it's over. Would we tire of a 90-minute or even two-hour show? Possibly, but it would be fun if at least the first show of any season was 2 hours long, giving us a chance to know something about the players. I think the little blonde girl (yes, girl) is going to do some damage to Rob. What's with her? Did she have a real crush on Matt? I've watched this show from the beginning, and every season has interesting twists. But please stop bringing back old players. Surely among the 40,000 applicants or so, CBS could find interesting players without reverting to old ones.

I didn't see anything wrong with Matt being a good sport. Rob is SCUM and wanted him out cause he is a threat and used that as an excuse. Rob hasn't changed. Can't stand him and never could but he does make the game interesting that's for sure.

If this kid was in the Military, and in a firefight, and all his buddies were killed, would he walk over and shake the ENEMYS hand?

Why did Russel shave or wax his body he looks like a shaved pig with all of the rashes it has caused lol. Dont wax before going to the tropix.

Going to be one of the Best Season Ever. Look forward every week to the next. Make it a longer show -- 90 minutes. Less editing and more show. We only get 40 minutes and you film for 24 hours a day - 39 Days. Come ON. The best show on TV.

Brilliant move by Boston Rob, loved it!

Oh please, it wasn't because he was nice. Boston Rob pointed out earlier in the episode that the kid was developing a "couple" alliance with the little blond. He knows from personal experience that that's a tough alliance to break. Anyone recall Rob and Amber? Not to mention Russell's longevity on two seasons in which he manipulated a strong alliance with one of the girls.

I thought it was a great move: Get control of Mr. "I'm a Federal Agent!", force the immunity idol into play, and break up a potential threat. The one big flaw to the plan could be that the kid wins the challenge on Redemption Island and gets to go back to the tribe. Also the girl he had an alliance with might decide to go after Rob herself.

Type your comment hereI used to watch survivor but when they keep bringing old players back it gets boring so I dont watch anymore

Hey CBS...Why not put Boston Rob on Two and Half Men and put Charlie Sheen on the island. Now that would be the ultimate REHAB!!!!

I'm so tired of stupid moves on Survivor. I was a huge Rob fan until now but that move was pure ego and no brains.
When will these people get it - when you're already losing, your ONLY option is to kick off your WEAKEST player and hope you can turn the tide. Instead, the losers go after some of the strongest players, virtually guaranteeing that they keep losing and the other tribe has the numbers going into the merge. When Boston Rob is making such an incredibly stupid, shoot yourself in the foot move, it's almost unbelieveable.
