I’m thinking too that production is really tone-deaf but will continue to double down and favor the male cast members, particularly the Toms, and are doing a longer hiatus before next season to make it easier for the Sandoval redemption arc to happen next time.  

This will probably be an unpopular opinion but I think the guys are just more interesting as tv characters.We've seen "Lala" drag a skank home from a bar, talk dirty with him (🤢) and try to make him into a "thing" by calling him "The Don" but no one cared. 😴. Ditto with Katie and "Satchel" 😴 (Sorry for all the quotation marks but I just can't with these "names"! 😄) Katie tried with Max, but he's not allowed on the show anymore so all that did was score Schwartz some more camera time.  Schwartz had Jo and we were all interested in her, and I bet we and the girls on the show will all be gossiping about the new girlfriends too!  The guys may have been idiots getting their bar open, but at least it's a real place that is open and people have been to!  Sandy's band may be a joke but it opens up more settings for interesting things to happen (unlike Scheana's living room.) And finally I think they are still actually friends, while the girls are all just here for the Bravo $$ and it's getting more and more obvious.

I don't think she does herself or anyone else any favors if she lies about how she lost the weight but I can understand not wanting to face the criticism she'd get from some people if she admitted to using weight loss drugs. 

Well she has the choice to face criticism from them for using drugs, or from my type who will call out her lies!  😂. Or she could stay off of tv and mind her business, but is that really an option? 😂

So Sandoval the genius rather sheepishly told us that he usually will delete “stuff like that” from his phone.

Now that Ariana’s and his attorneys have responded to Rachquel’s lawsuit, I wonder how many women are realizing that Sandoval recorded them in intimate acts.

I'll never believe Raquel didn't know - she just stupidly thought it would remain private.

[Social Media: What's Up With Her?]

To me the fact that she agreed to photograph her meals for Will, took a pass on that when she felt like cheating, and laughed about it for her tv audience, but cried to his face when he confronted her tells me she lies about food.  And I don't care what method she used to lose her weight and she doesn't owe anyone an explanation now, but if she does another season of her show and claims to have done it without meds I'll call her a liar again! 😃

[Social Media: What's Up With Her?]

I feel like we know enough about Whitney after all these years to know that she's not honest about what she eats and how she works out.  When Glenn opened the back of her car there were way more food wrappers and drink containers than one could eat on a "bad day".  When she lived with her parents we saw Babs removing stacks of dirty plates and empty wine bottles from her room.  When she worked out with Will and was supposed to send him photos of her meals she just didn't comply when she wanted to eat off-plan.  She got the gig with the Fitness Marshall and dropped out after filming one video - and she was in charge of the "modifications"!  All she had to do was march in place and flap her arms a little until the filming stopped, but she didn't feel like it.  She had 3 pizza apps on her phone before most of us had any.  And this was how she acted when being filmed for her show - I doubt she acted better when no cameras were on her 😂  She has lost and gained some weight over the years she's been on this show, so she was probably making more of an effort at some times than others, but to act like she's "done everything" and it just hasn't worked is not true, IMO.  And even if she says it she may believe it and not have a clear view of her own behavior.  I remember one lovely girl on My 600 Pound Life who told Dr. No what she ate for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and I don't think it even occurred to her that she left out the plate of several donuts that her mom sent upstairs for her to eat as she got ready in the morning.

I feel like Katie and Ariana's sandwich shop has been talked about for years already! According to Professor Google, they introduced the shop in VP S09 (2021-22), and were supposed to open it in 2022 I think. I mean, shit or get off the proverbial pot already! I predict a big fail, unless crazed star fucker tourists to LA want to get a sandwich in the hopes of running into cast members.

I'm sticking with fake shop for storyline - they only "work" on it during filming!

Although not an experience that represents most of the comments on this thread, I have enjoyed many meals at Applebee's.  Is it the best restaurant to which I've been?  No, but it serves a purpose and has some variety on the menu.  But, I will say that their Mudslide (alcoholic drink) is one of the best I have had.

I talked to a friend yesterday evening(Thursday) and she said she had gone to Applebee's for lunch.  I asked if she got the bourbon burger and she laughed and told me that the friend she was meeting was almost an hour late so she went to the bar by herself and spent the time chatting with strangers about the previous night's episode - they were all Survivor watchers lured out to Applebee's.  So it appeals to some fans! 😂

 the show still cast her, so Liz's food allergies is not her fault. If production felt like it would negatively affect their game, similarly to how they won't cast people who are on certain medications, they should have done the same with Liz.

I think this is on Liz - she can play hungrier if that's her choice.  They have cast a deaf woman, who knew she  would be at a disadvantage when she wouldn't be able to hear all conversations.  They cast a woman who had to fling off her artificial leg in one of the challenges!  It's different than why they couldn't cast a blind person or someone in a wheelchair, who would just be literally unable to do what's needed to be on the show.  If adults who know they'll be at a disadvantage want to play, that's on them.  IMO of course 😃

Yes. She's just so ridiculously egotistical. "Every man wants to get with Liz." "I'm going to go home and have a hot girl summer." In a way, she reminds me of Coach, but at least his delusions were entertaining.

I wish Kenzie had clued Tiffany in and hadn’t been pushing so hard for her to go.  She definitely seemed to be having second thoughts and I’m not sure why she thought it was a good move in the first place.  

She did have second thoughts - that's why Maria & Co. left her out of the vote!  Kenzie voted for Q after telling Maria that tonight was NOT the night to vote for Tiff, and telling us that she was having second thoughts on that whole thing.

Few of them knew Hunter had an idol, why didn't they look for one?

I believe the idols are only replaced if they are played - that's why they want people to go out with the idol in pocket - so they don't have to worry about it being replaced.

I don't need for someone to cause a scene, but I need to see a little fire or some pain for losing.  Show that you care more than people like me who can't understand why you'd bother to obtain a hidden immunity idol to use as a Ponderosa poker card protector before playing it to advance in the game

At this point I think they don't want to look like crybaby sore losers.  Like Liz did the whole time, especially when it was Tiff vs. Charlie and Liz groused, "Well she ate". Team Q on the not picking Liz for the reward.  For all we know, Liz's daughter eats burgers on Wednesdays with Fairplay's grandma 😂

I liked Lala’s dress, but then again, I am one of the six individuals who likes Lala. I think she has the most perfect body. Her implants are a little too big, but otherwise I would die to have a body like that. But you guys are right. It was impossible to relax in. She covered her chest with her hand as soon as Schwartz leaned over to chat. Even though she swims without her bikini top.

There are six of you? 😂😂😂 (but she does have a great body!)

Dan is much better looking in person than in the pics we saw before the season aired - I like his big smile!  But his hair is stupid, IMO.

What I learned tonight is apparently both Ann and Penny are VDR employees, and the sandwich shop is still a joke.

  I don't think initially that she thought she was going to be thrown together with Sandoval the way she has.  

But then again.....maybe this is all just being supremely scripted (and in some cases well-acted) long-con attempt to keep a dying show alive.  I have one friend who, after looking at all of said the only thing she believes wasn't planned in advance was "the bubble head not wanting to come back."  

If she didn't think that then she's certainly not the smartest person she or anyone else knows!!  She's been in the game long enough to know how it works.  What she also knows is that she can act as outrageous and horrible as she'd like and the producers will smile and nod and say, "More please!" 😄

Both Jax and Kristen would shag anyone!  The rest of them weren't abnormal so much as they were all cheaters, and seemed to get into what they called "relationships" by sleeping with someone enough times to start living together 😄

Yep, that too!  I can't help but feel like it's bad luck or in poor taste for these bitter and angry MAFS Denver girls to donate their wedding dresses from failed joke MAFS marriages to terminally ill women who want to get married for real love during their last days.  A donation to that type of charity should be with good intentions and without any negativity towards the actual dress that's being donated.  The girls didn't really seem to care about the charity's cause, they were all boredly talking about the potential dress recipients and Emily was smirking all throughout it.  It depressed me to watch it.  

The brides probably won't even know it unless they watch this show and have a sharp eye.  The dresses are just inanimate objects - hopefully 4 ladies will find them and wear them and have lovely days! 😃

You take me somewhere to drink unsweet chocolate, listen to a woman say random words, and then rub a stick on a bowl, we’re throwing hands. 

I laughed in agreement at this post yesterday, then watched the show today and found out it was the guys doing this! 🤣. The bolded part is what Cameron and Brennan said to each other on the phone when they decided to skip it 😂

I'm glad that Orion learned he has to be more clear with his words.  Maybe the next time he deliberately baits someone into saying a word he finds so offensive he needs several hours alone time afterwards to decompress, followed by announcing that he can never, ever, ever forgive the use of said word, he'll be more clear in advance.  Fucker.

Kenzie and Tiff are a pair, and have been working together. But everyone's favorite Mermaid Dragon started orchestrating a blindside of Tiffany already Seems a clearcut case of Big Move Fever. Say she had succeeded as early as this episode. Where would that leave Kenzie in terms of future votes? She can't rely on Q, not only because he is generally unreliable but also because she would have been instrumental in ousting his No. 1 ally and to the extent he cares about it still, a member of the Six. She might sidle up to Charlie/Maria and Ben to give old Siga a 4-3-1 lead, and then hope she's not blindsided once she's no longer useful, or flit back and side with old Nami to get rid of one of her Siga allies. Venus and Liz are weirdos and had been on the outs. Anyway, does she think it won't get back to Tiff that Kenzie has made a move on her? 

Maria wanted credit for the Tiffani vote out, but if she's smart she'll let Tiffani know it was Kenzie!

I can't help wondering what today's casting choices would do if they were made to play old school style Survivor.  No idols, no advantages, no SITD, the only immunity is the necklace/statue.

I say this every season in case someone in charge looks in here - I think they need to do a season where they repeat everything exactly as they did it is season 1 - challenges, rewards, etc.  And NOT tell the contestants and see which "superfan" figures it out first! 😃

I said in the live chat thread that Probst is becoming too much of a character.  It used to be TC was the overly solemn place where everyone got their feelings out and he just listened.  Didn’t really need the theatrics of him immersing himself in the game but I guess it fits the theme of the season.  I’m just glad he had something Liz could actually eat.  

But then they decided having them all jump and run and whisper to each other was more entertaining for us.  (Which it is not, IMO).  So why not more ridiculousness?
