What are you watching?

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Yeah, but she took that worthless Mike to reward. Disappointing.

Maybe good strategy if she brings him to the end, he's burning bridges. -0-?

Spoiler:
Seems like Lindsay is going to be targeted along with Jonathan.
Omar seems too fickle and the sneaky is catching up with him.
Romeo is a number and not well liked.

Mike? Seems well liked.

If Maryann wins I think I'll :puke-left:

Dreas's exit was a moment. They should all be like that.

Major mistake telling Omar.

Makes me realize how much the edit hides in the name of storytelling.

At least Mike got some votes. Loved seeing Jonathan and Lindsay survive against the (literal) odds.

I've got mixed feelings about the rule that says if your idol isn't physically on your presence you can claim you don't have one. Clever plan, but unless your idol was irrevocably given away, it looks like you DO have one. Suppose you just hid it somewhere back at camp. Could you say "no I don't have one"?

I can see her beating Romeo, but who else?

That'd be a bit of surprise after the first few episodes with her annoying goofball edit.

It looks like her social game may be better than it looks to us. I haven't seen anything out of her but yap yap yap. I don't see her winning immunity. But she does have an extra idol.

I guess if she's the winner it'd have to be. Up to this point we haven't been shown any other reasons. Maybe she makes big splash plays with her idols.

Great final tribal performance by the winner.

It was a good season and, if those were the final three we got, I liked the choice. I didn't ever like Mike and still don't, but if undeserving Romeo had won it would have been time to fling beer cans at the TV. I really wanted Jonathan and Lindsay in the final, but they just had too many people out to get them.

They did a decent job fooling us with the edit and/or creating a narrative. Maryanne went from annoying flighty goofball to player to deserving winner.

It was never going to be Romeo, he was an editing afterthought all night.

RFDS (Royal Flying Doctor Service) on PBS. Australian 8-episode season about a group of medical people serving outback locations. Good characters, good stories, good acting, good scenery if you like desolate. Stream for free with Passport or, if you prefer ante up $40 for DVD.
