Roxie was stupid about commenting on how everyone wants to work around camp after the challenges. I think that attitude sealed her demise.

Yeah she clearly didn't get they all didn't like her work ethic so that was the exact wrong thing to say.

hard to attack the decision last night when you can't undo a simple attachment 2 feet underwater you're probably going home. Admittedly Russ was equally inept but he's so much physically stronger than Angie it's probably the right decision to keep him.

I agree with the call, but I am sure going to miss looking at the balloon smuggler.

Yep. RC is good to look at too but much more annoying.

I'm guessing there may be some kind of early merge coming up because they have a real problem with one team losing every week. They're now 3 players short and it's not only going to impact challenges, it creates an unnatural situation where too much of each show focuses on one smaller tribe because they're preparing for tribal council.

Yeah that was pathetic. She barely had to go underwater to release that first one. Then during tribal she kept trying to claim she could have done more but deferred. Yeah right, if she couldn't get the one 2 feet underwater, she would have zero chance with any of the others! Saddly she needed to go.

I'm interrested to see if Jeff Kent and Penner team up.

the thing with Kent cracks me up. When he was on the Giants he had several issues with Bonds. Everyone knew Bonds was a jerk but at the time the steroid thing wasn't really clear so people hated Kent for messing with the hometown hero.

In hindsight I suspect Kent probably wasn't such a bad guy he probably knew Bonds was using and didn't respect him. So far on the show he seems to be a pretty standup guy.

I wonder how bad he tweeked his knee in episode one. I haven't noticed it hampering him too much so far.

I think it is amazing how that one chick figured out who he was so quickly.

Man the carnage continues for the losing tribe. Unreal, no way they should have lost last night but they did and Russ goes home.

I gotta believe they're going to merge next week given one team is now down to 2 players going against two 6 team tribes.

I think they will put Denise on 1 team and Malcolm on another.

I think they will completely reshuffle everyone onto two teams. The whole pick a rock out of a basket thing.

:shrug:Or maybe take a player from the 2 larger teams and move them to the 3rd.

Yeah the problem with splitting Malcolm and Denise is they are both the obvious targets to go home if their new tribe loses since they are the new person.

I like the player from each larger team idea.

Too bad RC got booted before anybody figured out it was Pete not her that dug up the idol clue. I was really wondering if the Brazilian girl is able to say the words "I'm sorry" or "my mistake" but we may have to wait for the reunion show to find out.

RC was also the last of the eye candy, although she was annoying.

Looks like Penner is going to blow up next episode but they usually intentionally mislead us so my guess is Pete is probably the next guy in people's crosshairs.

I hope Skupin goes home soon, he's not going to have any skin left on his body he's got cuts and scabs everywhere you can see.

Don't want Mike S to go home. Neither do I want Lisa. As a Christian. But would love to see older people go as far. But then again, you have eye candy along the way to see!

I'm thinking for Mike's own safety. If you noticed last night his right (?) shoulder has a huge chunk of missing skin off it. Don't think it was a sunburn that peeled like he scraped it on something. he's got cuts all over him just seems like he's been consistently getting hurt. They showed most of his injuries early on but now he just keeps showing up with new wounds they aren't explaining.

I actually like Lisa I think she has a chance as they were saying last night to get to the finals because everyone seems to consider her non threatening and if Mike and Penner don't make the final, nobody else seems to know who she is.

Its weird.. This season I am having a hard time picking who to root for.. normally this is not an issue, and its not as though the show is boring or unwatchable.. I just am struggling to find anyone to root for or even root against..

Not too many villains (If any) this season either IMO...

This show is still on?!


Jeeeez.


I remember back when that funny, naked gay dude won it. Thatd had to be season 1 or 2 right. The next season I remember is some dude fainting into a fire and getting Air lifted out.


The ultimate American television show: Survive in place where people already live. lol

The guy that fell in the fire is back this season.

Actually the show has little to do with "surviving" and is pretty much a social game.
