And I don't think JT set them up.

 

I don't think he set them up. But if he would've kept his mouth shut and not try to be cute then I believe Malcolm would still be playing.

It was freaking great. I cannot imagine how anyone doesn't like that.

 

I just didn't like it because I liked Malcolm.

 

I said at work the other day, I would have liked to see that tribal play out without them being able to get up and whisper to each other. Like a real that they had to talk aloud, in front of everyone.

I think I like them being able to whisper and get up and move around. I would have really liked it if I was in the game. Alliances and connections were certainly revealed.

We've seen whispering in the past, but I can't remember players getting up and walking over to others even once like the did last night. For the first time, Probst almost didn't know what to say. I know there is much more of tribal council edited out, but you would think they would show us if something like this has happened in the past. I think this really highlights the point that there are actually very few rules of Survivor. It didn't work out for Malcolm and his tribe, but in Survivor unless explicitly told not to, it is better to act and be told to stop rather than ask permission for anything. What a great episode.

I couldn't agree more, this was something we've never seen in the history of the game.

I know a lot of people don't care for Sandra, but she cracks me up. I love when people do things like steal the sugar. Or when Rupert stole shoes and I think Russell buried socks. Just cracks me up.

Varner was too afraid of the repercussions of going against Sandra in that vote. Would've rather seen Michaela go home, but he made the right decision. Only wanna make an enemy of Sandra if her torch is getting snuffed.

A surprise return?

I thought it was hilarious. I'd be mad as hell if I was the one being blamed for it, but as a viewer it was funny and a brilliant move.

Varner is scared to do anything. When JT said some of us are game changers and some of us are just filling space he should have been addressing Varner not Michaela.

I might be in the minority, but I don't really care for Michaela much at all.

Do you think the Survivor staff recovered JT's idol before they returned to camp? They could then put it back into play.

They probably have 50 of those things laying around anyway. But you're probably right, you know they followed him when he hid it somewhere.

My idea for an interesting twist. Let's say there are 15 people left and they are going to go to two tribes. I'd like to see them draw rocks. 2 white rocks and 13 black rocks. The 2 white rocks become the captains and there is a school yard pick up for whose on your tribe. Whoever doesn't get picked goes to Exile.

 

I think it would be really interesting to see the approach the captains would take. First instinct would probably be to pick people that you like and/or are in your alliance. However, what happens when you lose the challenge and you gotta pick off people within your alliance? Would you be better off getting your core go-to person or 2 and then a few people that you don't really care about? I think it would create a very interesting strategic dynamic that they've never had before.

I might be in the minority, but I don't really care for Michaela much at all.

 

I like her. She's got spunk!
