Come on. It's like nobody on the show watched Survivor. They just kept running to Dom and Wendell to be saved. As if that's ever won anybody Survivor. On any other season Dom and Wendell would have been targeted long ago and taken out. Instead a bunch of Survivor "fans" couldnt keep a secret.

The best players won. Not sure how that diminishes the season. I think it makes it better.

Agreed 100%, I hate when some weak floater wins because of a salty jury. Wendell and Dom were the best players all season. I personally would have given it to Dom, I feel like he controlled the game just a little more.

On a different season you might be right and I agree. Unfortunately nobody had the balls to actually try and vote off Wendall or Dom. The blonde idiot that just ran and told everybody everything was annoying too.

I think in an interview she said she thought Sebastian would have gotten a lot of votes if he made it to the final vote and she wanted to get him voted out. Lot of people on the jury liked him supposedly. That's why she told Dom.

Much like Derrick from Big Brother, I'd like to see Dom and Wendell come back, to see how they would adapt.

And I know it was Ghost "idol" Island, but for ****s sake dial back all the damn idols. It's 25% strategy, 25% challenges, and 50% idol hunting at this point. Also hire someone to create some new challenges, it's the same recycled stuff over and over.

That's what makes Dan Gheesling the best BB player ever, IMO. His adaptation from season to season was phenomenal. He had no business getting to the end.

When Dr. Will came back, he sort of resigned himself to losing early because of his reputation and he put that in everybody's head from the start. It was a nice card to play, it got him further than he should have gone, but it wasn't a $-winning card like what Dan came up with.

That being said, Dan did have that "veteran coach" dynamic in his 2nd season, which Will didn't get, so maybe it's not a fair comparison.

Yeah Will had the biggest of targets as soon as he walked in, but you are right he just played the same game. Dan was impressive, and I still think he should have won the second time. I don't think Will cared about winning the show all that much, I think he just enjoyed playing with people's minds. For me they are 1A and 1B probably by a wide margin honestly.

FWIW I would make sweet sweet love to that charismatic *******, so I'm a little biased.

Anybody watching this year? Christian is such a fascinating guy to me, such an interesting mix of being extremely awkward while being super charismatic. Natalie is probably the least self-aware person I've ever seen in my life.

Christian and Gabbie ftw! I also like Mike. I loved Christian's astonished face when the brochachos welcomed him to slamtown.

They would make the cutest nerd couple ever. I like Mike too. I was worried Christian would get on people's nerves, but his social game is amazing. Like the brochachos thing, he's so genuinely excited to interact with people. I hope his tribe gets with Mike at the merge and run the game.

Another good Tribal. That attempt by Gabby was 15% game and 85% I developed a crush and got my feelings hurt when I saw Christian with his GF. IMO

Christian is top 3 favorite players with Russell and Parvarti. Also watching the preview for next, seeing everyone toss 100 names around is so dumb. If Christian makes the end he 100% wins, and its probably not even close.

You mean dumb game play by players or a dumb preview? My wife and I were cracking up when Mike said, "the next person going home is you."

Gabby inadvertently did Christian a favor. She was bad for his game. Carl was the wrong move.

Dumb game play, they should all be saying Christian. I did too, it caught me off guard.

She did and she was, he was constantly coddling her and doing damage control.

Well, you got your wish, BJ.

I like Davie every bit as much as I liked Christian, so I'm unphased with my interest in this season. Davie is such a good player all around, but he made a mistake making his feelings about Eric public. Other than that, he's played a low-key impactful game. Davie was protecting himself by keeping Christian because Davie realized he's the 2nd best player, and I don't think anybody else has realized that. Allison? Why?

So long Christian. I liked him too and agree if he had made it to the end, he was going to win.

Our local radio show does fun with football audio - plays clips with dirty phrases/words, they would have had a field day with Jeff's comments about all these balls falling and dropping! :D

Next time they bring back former players Christian will be in if he wants. Not too impressed with the games of any of the remaining goliaths except mayyyyybe Angelina?

I'm wondering if Angelina is a likely person to win. I know it's edited and we see what they want us to but she comes across as conniving and manipulative and it's been out there for all to see yet she's still around. Shes doing something right imo.

I'd like to see her get voted out just because I find her annoying. It's one thing to be a skillful player that can lie or manipulate, but she does it in a whiny entitled way.

And I'm a sad sad puppy. Lol Hopefully he wins America's favorite player, and I'm sure he'll get a future All Stars callback. I don't even know who I want to win at this point.

I can't stand Angelina so whiny. I think this Jury won't even be a little bitter or personal, I think she could win if it's her, Mike, and the blonde chair.

I would say most likely to win in order is...Nick, Davey, Allison, Angelina, Mike, and the chair.

That's how I would play it if it were me. I wouldn't be bitter, I'd respect a good game. I was disappointed in Mike. Early on he led off like he was going to play a strong game, but it was right after the merge I think, he got soft and scared when he could have flipped on the goliaths but stayed with numbers. And kept on doing it vote after vote until the Davids made good use of their advantages and scared all the remaining goliaths into working with them once the number advantage was gone.

I agree with your first two. Nick/Davey. Something about Angelina makes me think she could win it still if they don't vote her out. Unless the show is painting her as an ass, if she really is a sneaky b***h she must be doing something right I guess. Maybe they don't see her as a threat but she's played a better game than Alison, Mike, and the blond. They haven't really done much that I can think of. Mike just got lucky that his lobby against Christian accidentally worked when he didn't even vote for Christian. Sad to see Christian go. I was pulling for him.
