Didnt we have that whole segment that even made me yell Vis? Lol

Interesting statistic from reddit regarding the edit and where we may be heading next week:

The winner of Samoa had 15 confessionals and the guy who was in second place had OVER 100.

Going back, Survivor hasn't had an unequivocally GOOD penultimate episode since San Juan Del Sur.

Tonight: Hot garbage with Rick as the only person worth a damn.

DvG: A whole episode revolving around Nick making a fake idol, Davie finding a real idol, and both of them being targeted because of idols, only for Christian to get booted and not even make the finale.

GI: Trash in general, but Kellyn should've made the finale over like, 2/3 of the final 6.

HHH: Ben finds another idol and showboats with it at tribal council...no thanks.

GC: Andrea is the obvious boot in the first half-hour, then Michaela is booted with no explanation whatsoever in the second half-hour.

MvGX: Double boot of Will/Sunday in completely pointless blindsides that carried zero weight since who gave a fuck about Will/Sunday.

KR: I PERSONALLY love the Joe medevac, but I'm willing to bet most of the casuals hate it and hate the fact that it led to Michele winning the season over Aubry.

Cambodia: Eliminating Abi in a pointless blindside that removed a player with personality to further shore up the number of stratbots in the endgame.

WA: The season was so garbage that even Dan getting idoled wasn't satisfying (especially since it's hardly humiliating to watch Dan go out via idol, rather than people just choosing to vote him out.)

SJDS: The Jon Misch blindside. Last time the pre-finale episode was good.

Let's not go overboard. This episode didn't have an asshole accusing an innocent guy of racism over stupid reasons.

My problem with the EoE segment is that it felt like pointless filler, designed to evoke emotion without warning it. Dont get me wrong, it was not dissimilar to the old Rites of Passage segments that I miss. But in this case, its people still technically in the game just commenting on their own growth. It lacked the artistic qualities that made Rites of Passage work: namely the flashbacks to highlight the players journeys, and the commentary from the remaining players about the impact each boot had on them.

Actually, thinking on it a little, you know what wouldve made me give a shit about that scene? Minor tweak, but give them letters from HOME. Have a whole scene of these are the people youre fighting for, theyre the reason youve touched it out on EoE. Itd humanize people and give some insight into their lives. Instead, its just Read this letter YOU wrote to YOURSELF, and pretend it means something.

lol, Mary's always fun.

I used placement as one metric to measure the power of an alliance, but it wasn't the only metric. I recently broke down the PB's vs. Brigade, and I think I'd still have Brigade as #1 (with PB's as #2).

I don't think you're wrong. You make a good point, my immediate thought was that it at least gave some nice closure for the other player's very little story that they did have.

There was an unaired head-to-head comp in the latest episode of TAR31. Right before the mat, the teams had to play some game of badminton. Rachel/Elissa lost to two teams before beating Corinne/Eliza, which is why theyre both on the mat at the same time.

Also explains why C&C were willing to work with Vic & Nic at the end (I think).

How did they lose to two teams? They were one of the last teams to leave the detour, so they would've had to have arrived BEFORE Janelle & Britney, lost to Leo & Jamal/Janelle & Britney, and then faced Corinne/Eliza.

The difference between this and HHH even I'm over Rick. He's the worst of the Holloway, Driebergen arctype


This is weird to me because those two were significantly worse for me. Not a huge rick fan but after this episode...he deserves to win. I really like Victoria but they should have called devens bluff and voted Julie tonight. Made absolutely no sense not to. If he plays the idol, Aurora still goes. If he doesn't play it, you get bonus points against Devin's by defeating his plot.

I just finished BB12 and I really did like it but I think it is in large and part to do with the Brigade. I can't stand Rachel, Britany was okay like she was real good at the end but I watched it short term and so when the season ended I still remembered the ugly things she said towards the beginning of the season, Brendan was okay but then the he would do stuff for Rachel that just made him unlikable. This ranked a lot higher than I thought it would but I just had fun and kept coming back. Here's all the rankings for those that care.

Season Ranking
7 > 2 > 4 > 10 > 18 > 12 > 20 > 8 > 11 > 6 > 3 > 5 > 19 >= 9

Player Ranking (this is my order of favorite. one person/group per season)
Dr. Will (2) > Danielle (3) > Enzo (12) > Dream Team aka Three Stooges (4) > The Renegades (10) > Victor/Paul(18) > Drew (5) > Eric (8) > Kaycee (20) > Jeff/Jordan/Kevin(11) > Josh(19) > Adam(9) > Chicken George (7) > Janelle/James/Howie (6)

Winners (in terms of game, then likeable)
Will == Dan > Drew > Maggie > Dick > Nicole > Boogey > Hayden > Jun > Kaycee > Jordan > Adam > Josh > Lisa

Will > Dan > Drew >Hayden > Kaycee > Jordan > Boogey > Josh > Nicole > Adam > Dick > Lisa > Maggie > Jun

Just watched Survivor.

You know, Rick may not be the most offensive personality on the season (ie he doesn't seem like the most horrible person) but his presence is single-handedly dragging the season down to a degree that few other contestants have ever done.
