  1. He didn't have to tell her he was playing the idol on her. It took at least two conversations about the possibility of voting Dee out. The initial one, which he said it was a good idea but he had to think about it, and the second "how dare you make me swear on Nana" conversation. Or it was one very long one that had them changing positions and moving around their environment. Should never have taken that long. What difference does it make whether it's Dee or Julie? If Katurah wants Dee (which was always the right move for both of them, anyway) you agree right then, not leaving it open in her mind whether you're committed to that. Not like Jake had trustworthiness on his side. As for the person above going on about, "voting for who you like," whatever. Drew's an idiot just like his buddy. That’s why they didn't win. Austin played with his dick. Drew was too stupid to recognize that and put a stop to it. Instead he rewards it. Dee has a million dollars because of those two being idiots. Good for her.
  2. Finally got around to watching the last two episodes No one, not even Jake, gets to the end without other people. Besides that, Dee--as much as I didn't like her--very much was her own player. She won immunity on her own. She stayed smart and kept her cards close while Austin played with his dick. She played the social game that made people want to be in alliances with her. Jake didn't win immunity. His social game was so bad he couldn't even get Katurah to vote for Dee when she wanted to vote for Dee because of his dumbassed "big move" obsession and inability to build a trustworthy alliance at any point. As for playing with his dick, the fact that Drew rewarded Austin for doing so finally broke my moderate support of Drew. He didn't vote for the best player. He voted for the guy who fucked up both of their games because he not only couldn't keep his mouth shut but he was also easily played by his "showmance" partner who could keep her mouth shut. Drew is an idiot. So is Austin. Both deserved to lose. The best player won. Good for her. And I hope she follows Emily's demand of spending none of her winnings on that foolish boy.
  3. I always had sympathy for Katurah. I mean, they showed how pushy, condescending and controlling Bruce could be on a regular basis. Other people even mentioned it on occasion. It was more odd to me that some viewers didn't see it. There was never any doubt in my mind that Katurah had him pegged from the start or why she would hate to be around someone like that. Her story tells us even more about why a controlling man might be uncomfortable or even frightening for her, but no woman with a lick of sense is comfortable with that shit.
  4. Brando was uninteresting even when they finally remembered he was there. I don’t understand Drew being so open about rejecting his offer, though, and I like Drew. I do not, however, like Bruce. Exhausting. Bossy. Annoying. Self-important. If Katurah is really the only one who noticed, the rest of them are clueless. Her dislike of the dude speaks to her ability to peg people accurately. Can't imagine having to deal with that dude 24/7.
  5. Harder? I wonder what these people would have done in the early days when it was really hard.
  6. Pon's tattoo was way too dark for my tastes. Definitely felt they made the right choice, especially since he got to pick his own tattoo.
  7. I don't think blind judging is ever truly blind. As long as Anthony stays, I am happy.
  8. I was really afraid that Katie was going home because she got so much screen time. I love her so much as both a tattooer and a person. I am always so happy when she posts pictures of her little one on social media. Please let Katie stick around! The weird thing is that I didn't recognize most of these people except for Katie. I guess it goes to show how the last few years of Peck and Nuñez had lost the glow for me. I vaguely remember Gian (sore-losing motherfucker) but that's really it.
  9. I didn't realize Dave was still going to be around. That makes me happy. I was never a fan of any of his bands, but I liked him as a TV host going back to the Rockstar days. I am more excited about this than I reasonably should be.
  10. So, it looks like we get new episodes on Paramount Plus beginning Sept. 7. https://twitter.com/inkmaster/status/1565036702132867078?t=C5cRMrbc-37ZIgs33foj4w&s=19
  11. I am finding everyone and everything about this show tiresome and ridiculous. The nostalgia element isn't even holding me anymore because everyone is so damned annoying. I mean, it's been heading this direction each season for me. The first one was fun, but it's progressively weaker each season. They're officially at bad now.
  12. I was wondering if I should even bother. I tried to watch the first episode, and the back story bullshit had me running for the remote.
  13. Was on the DS wiki today because I am watching the early episodes again, and I randomly went to Mitch Ryan's page. Blinked a couple of times when I saw a recent death date. I mean, these folks had long lives, but it still kind of hits me when another one dies. Maybe because they are my parents' age or a little older and I am anxious about their mortality.
  14. So many of these men are idiots. Weaken your own alliance so that you can feel like the Big Man who is Playing the Game™ instead of listening to a woman. Deshawn and Ricard are the fucking worst.
  15. I don't have a problem with Danny, but this obsession is fucking dumb. When men want to "keep the strength" by voting out women or just join together because they're "bros" (like Danny, DeShawn and Naseer, for example), no one thinks anything of it.
  16. So heavy-handed. This has to be one of the worst rip-offs of classic material yet. It's not just about disliking all these dipshits. It's about not believing they could exist.
  17. Shan wasn't rubbing anything in with Genie. Genie was throwing a fit about losing her ally and Shan laid out exactly why Genie should not really care whether Brad was gone or not. Sydney is attractive. Don't know how savvy she is yet, but she's attractive enough. Two attractive, thin young women. I wondered which one would get the internet hate this season. Looks like it's two for the price of one. But at least they're not being called guys, I guess.
  18. Political correctness run wild, guys! Anyway, I like a little of the back to basics stuff, but would prefer it be related to idols. At least the "earn your shit" stuff is a little more like old fashioned Survivor. Ricard is super annoying. Everyone else, I like well enough. Shan is a little annoying, but not too bad. I really like Danny. I might stick with the whole season.
  19. You could just not watch. I think JJ Abrams destroyed Star Trek, so I don't watch anything that he is involved with. Works for me.
  20. I love Tommy Helm. Even if he made some ugly women's faces in that season. 😂
  21. The "Amazon woman?" Do you mean Andrea, who is from Colombia? She is a perfectly beautiful woman from Latin America. So, no.
  22. I just did a re-watch of the first several seasons. I was honestly surprised at how tame the "conflict" was for the first season or so. It was a lot less about characters than it became later. That was especially true of the first season.
  23. I think Andrea is a much better business person. For most of the season, I thought she and Gary were pretty comparable as far as design. I much preferred his vintage to her sequins in the finale, though. I have my doubts that a lot of people want to wear sequins, but maybe I am wrong. In the end, I think her business savvy, both past and present, won the competition for her. As for who will succeed after this, Andrea has already grown her business. Gary's went under. I don't think she's going to suddenly fail. Hopefully he can get someone who has business acumen to help him, because I think both the pop-up shop and the business plan presentation showed why his business failed.
  24. Maybe he's just a shitty businessman. I have not seen anything from him that makes me feel he has the backbone or confidence to get through tough times in a tough industry.
  25. Damn. I wanted Andrea to win. That's a jumpsuit I would actually buy. I liked the print of Gary's dress, but I am not sure I want his because that jacket isn't my thing. It looks like a pain in the ass to wear.
