I can kind of see why, but I don't look at Charlie exercising to strengthen his grip to be any different than practicing using a flint to make fire before coming on the show. If you watch the show long enough, you know there's a very good chance that a challenge is going to come along where you're going to have to hold on to something heavy for an extended period of time. If Survivor wanted to take away this advantage, they'd amp up their creativity level instead of resting on their laurels with the challenges and throwing in more freaking immunity idols and crap to make things "interesting." Regarding Hunter's idol: I said this in the live chat, but my dad's theory is that the reason no one went looking for it this week is because they may have thought he was bluffing. So they didn't realize there was anything to look for, because playing/not playing an idol has nothing to do with whether one gets hidden again.

I knew she was gone the minute she started talking about how she could escape the vote with the idol in her pocket about twenty-five minutes ago. I literally turned to my dad and said, “famous last words.” And they were. BTW, his theory is that the reason no one was looking for Hunter’s idol is because they all thought he was bluffing, so they didn’t realize there was an idol to find.

I keep trying to remember who we have to curse thank for “Survivor resume” because I am so past that phrase.

I’m a little surprised that Q isn’t trying to find Hunter’s old idol. Isn’t it usual that the idol gets hidden again once it’s out of the game? Did something change? Is Jeff feeling okay?????

Of the things they have on the island/are given, I think it was just coconut and fruit. I definitely remember those being mentioned.

I mean, she didn’t stand a chance in hell of winning anyway, so she might as well take the deal.

That was uncomfortable. Seriously. But what’s more uncomfortable is that they cast Liz knowing she was going to have trouble getting sustenance on the island. I get that this is Survivor, where not eating is a hazard of the game, but not to this extreme for as long as it’s been for her. They bounced someone a few seasons ago because they didn’t realize how difficult it would be for him to be off his psychotropic medications, but they let her on knowing how many food allergies she had, knowing there was a real risk that something like this would happen?

AND I AM ONE OF THOSE TWO!!! And now I won't get that song out of my head, so thanks. 🤣

Same. Hunter's roommate, or whoever it was who introduced him to Survivor, didn't do him any favors by showing him seasons in random order.

Well, I guess since pretty much all three said they were voting for him, they considered that a verbal vote? Show of hands? Something??

Oh for God's sake. This is just getting embarrassing. I can't with this.

This was fun, even if poor Ken wasn't quite Kenough. See you guys next year!!

Jimmy couldn't let the show end without getting in one dig at Matt Damon!!!

No, the Daniels and EEAAO both won last year.

Well...that was a little anticlimactic. Not so much because we knew Oppenheimer was going to win, but a little reminder that there were nine other films in this category would've been nice.

We're absolutely sure he's got the right envelope???

LOL, Jimmy--good point, make sure that envelope gets ripped up!!!

Ooooh, love Michelle's dress!!

Yay to Christopher Nolan...and as for that "Memento" screenplay, which should've won him his first Oscar...

Hollywood, GET ON THIS NOW!!!!

Four awards left...heyyyyyy, we might actually get done on time!!

Oh for God's sake!! I thought it was going to start out okay, with the strings playing Con te partirò, even if I was a little frustrated with the dancers. But when all you're seeing is a long shot of the people who've passed away, and suddenly there are more dancers and here are the singers...no!! Just let us see the pictures and occasionally something from the dearly departed, some nice music (I love that song, by the way), and leave it be!! We don't need an interpretive dance!!!

MASSIVE EYE ROLL

I kind of like Cynthia's...I hate repeating myself, but the damned sleeves!! WHYYYYY??? But Ariana's? No, sweetie, no.

LOL...Jimmy, seriously, put those pants up in a charity auction and they'd make a mint!!!
