I've just finished and I want more! I hope it gets renewed soon. I've liked all the characters but Riley bacame such an useless damsel at the end that she became the least likeable character. Capheus had the weakest story (IMO) but his character was amazing especially when he was interacting with other Sensates. My favourties are probably Nomi and Wolfgang. Nomi is such a complex character and she is dating Martha Jones (who looks like she hasn't aged a day since I've last seen her in Torchwood). I found Wolfgang's story oddly touching and I loved his interactions with others, especially with Lito. I liked Lito as well but I thought he had the weakest connection to others. Kala, Sun and Will had great moments but they also had very weak moments. I'm still undecided about Jonas.

I probably wouldn't remember them either but I did a little research on the number of returning players from each season few days ago and was shocked that there is 8 returning players from Australia in total (on top of that Colby, Jerri and Tina returned twice). On the other hand, no one from Guatemala has ever returned (Stephenie doesn't count).

4 players from Borneo (Rudy, Richard, Susan, Jenna), 5 from Australia (Colby, Tina, Jerri, Alicia, Amber) and 3 from Africa (Ethan, Lex, Tom) returned for All Stars. 3 players from Cook Islands (Parvati, Ozzy, Jonathan) returned for Micronesia. 3 players from China (James, Amanda, Courtney) and Tocantins (J.T., Coach, Tyson) returned for Heroes vs. Villains. 3 players from Redemption Island (Phillip, Andra, Francesca) and 3 from South Pacific (Dawn, John, Brandon) returned in Caramoan. 3 players from One world (Kat, Colton, Monica) returned for Blood vs. Water. 4 players from Cagayan (Spencer, Kass, Tasha, Woo) and 3 from San Juan del Sur (Jeremy, Kelley, Keith) will return for Cambodia.

The good: - Mike won! Yay! I've liked him since the beginning so his win makes me very happy. I think he is one of the most deserving winners. - Rodney lost again and again and again. He is the definition of a "loser". - Mike and his mom. I loved when he handed her the cheque. - Jenn's jury speech. I still don't like her but her speech was epic. - Overall I really liked this season. For me, it was the best season since Heroes vs. Villains. I honestly can't remember most of the 20+ seasons and who won them. The bad: - The FTC. No opening speeches? Most of the jurors adressing only one finalist? WTF? - The never-ending discussion about Dan/Will/Rodney/Shirin. I don't agrre with Sandra that what happened was OK but she has a point - this kind o thing happens all the time to all sorts of people. It just isn't broadcasted on TV. We won't change the world by shaming Dan, Will or Shirin. We were not there, we don't know what exactly went down. - The Reunion Show. WTF Probst? I feel bad for all the players who weren't spoken to. - Terry Deitz. I hope Vytas will vote him out as a revenge for disrespecting his brother's relationship with their mother (It's more likely that they will join forces and form an "Aras Sucks Club" but one can dream, right?) The shallow: - I know that most people find Joe pretty but I never got the appeal. On the other hand, I will miss oggling Mike every week. It's weird how some people get more appealing by not showering and shaving for over a month. He even looked great at The Reunion Show, I guess he lost some weight and never got it back because I didn't find him attractive before the show. - When did Stephen Fishbach became so cute???

I wouldn't be surprised if Blair and Hayley are the only BD couple who will start dating for real. LOL.

I wonder if they are going to rehide the HII. But maybe there is still the one Joe got clue to? On rewatch I've noticed that Carolyn's idol is yellow, Jenn's was red and Mike's was blue so they were all the original idols hidden at the 3 camps (Yellow - WC, Red - NC, Blue - BC). The thing is there was no other clue after Mike found the idol so maybe it was really a clue to the BC idol? Or nobody found another clue because they weren't looking for it...

That was Dan.

I wasn't talking about looking at the stick shift but looking at my phone. No one who drives manual should ever look at the stick shift. At least that's what I was taught.

I did it once and never tried again. But it wasn't because I needed two hands to drive but because I wasn't comfortable with taking my eyes off the road. You don't need to shift the gears often when you are driving on a highway so I am not sure if it's going to work, especially with a teenager.

Wow, it's 2015 and the contestants still don't know hot to drive a stick shift. I wish people who can only drive automatic cars weren't allowed anywhere near manual cars like in most countries that are not the USA. Btw. driving a stick shift is not hard at all.

Lol at everybody calling Joe a challenge beast after ONE individual win. He looks strong but right now he is nowhere near the Ozzy and Terry level of challenge dominance. I recommend we wait until we start labeling him as a serious challenge threat especially since there are many strong men and women left int the competition.

Jenn is such a mean girl. When she started laughting while the votes were still being read she lost any chance to redeem herself (IMO). I hate smug players. Was it smart to play the HII? Yes. Was it necessary to high five at everyy vote cast agains her? No. I don't understand why so many people like her and are rooting for her. Her comments about other people were sometimes more offensive than those supposedly sexist things that the BC men said yet no one is hating on her. I just don't get it...

I was starting to think Rochefort was Wolverine. That bastard just wouldn't die even though every single character stabbed him at least once. I didn't feel sorry for him at all. And I am probably a very bad person because I didn't feel sorry for the nanny either. She didn't have to sleep with Aramis and let Rochefort blackmail her... I believe the filming of a new season will start soon. Once again in my lovely home country.

Didn't they also throw a challenge in Russell's third season (Redemption island?) just to get rid of him? I saw some butthurt comments on his twitter (and then I saw Mike's twitter reaction to Russell and my crush immediately deepened...jk)

I knew there was a reason why I liked Mike. He clearly understands the game and seems like a huge fan of the show. I am a little worried that he put a target on his back by showing he is a player so early in the game but I hope it will work out for him. I know, right? While everybody else is ogling Joe I am like "Damn, Mike is hot." And he could easily be my dad...

I rewatched that scene and he had his gloves on when he was removing the shard and putting it in the container. Then the camere focused on other characters and when it got back to Paul he wasn't wearing gloves anymore.

I want Milady's dress. And I don't even wear dresses. It's that perfect. My TV screen almost exploded from the amount of chemistry between Athos and Milady. Aramis telling everybody about the Queen affair was pure gold. The only thing better than the boy's reactions was Athos' snark. Rochefort... just die already! And take the king and the nanny with you. Poor Lemay. Btw. why didn't Constance just close her eyes?

I don't think he meant it in a sexist way. I just think that he was frustrated with Dan and he was (unsuccessfully) trying to make him say that he was sorry without looking like an ass. I think that sometimes Americans tend to be a little too oversensitive about comments like that. Most of us probably said some pretty dumb things too we just didn't do it on national TV.

Why does everyone hate Mike? I didn't hear anything offensive or sexist come out of his mouth. He might be actually the smartest person from the BC tribe. He tried to stop Rodney and Dan from attacking Sierra after the TC and then he made Dan apologize to her. IMO he was right when he told Dan to just apologize without making any excuses. So what's the big deal?

If Constance and Rochefort survive this season I will be very surprised.

I knew there was a reason why I hated the nanny (still don't care enough to remember her name). Girl, you put yourself in that position. Aramis may have seduced you but it was your choice to sleep with him even though you knew it could lead to serious consequences. I know it wasn't supposed to be funny but I laughed so hard at the noises Treville was making while he was being treated. I just couldn't take that scene seriously. I had a serious "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" moment at the end of the episode. What has Rochefort done to deserve King's trust? He spent the whole season plotting how to ruin France and yet Louis still treats him like his BFF. WTF show? I hate villains who never lose.

That was probably the ugliest immunity idol I have ever seen on this show. The only people that seem likeable to me are Joe and Mike (even though he ate a scorpion). There is just something about them... I can't believe no one choose the 5-piece puzzle. That was the easiest puzzle I have ever seen. Glad to see So leave, I hope Joaquin will be next.

Jelani & Jenny and Laura & Tyler are my early favorites. I hope they stay likeable. I have never heard about NKOTB. I am either too young or too European. Libby & CJ annoyed me. I hate when teams go to foreign country and start shouting "English!" at everybody. I would never demand anybody from other country to know my mother tongue. On top of that, they kept getting lost. The Hayley & Blair trainwreck is hilarious. I was sad to see the older couple go. Jeff looks great for his age. On a completely shallow note, there was a lot of Japanese eye candy this episode. I approve. It's sakE. (I am sorry, it's just that I actually speak some Japanese and it's killing me to see it spelled saki)

This! I didn't even hate Rochefort this episode until Louis gave him credit for the rescue once again. Otherwise I really liked this episode even though I was rolling my eyes at the cheesy D'Artagnan/Constance ending. Everybody was just standing there watching them and smiling. It was a little creepy. Athos and his "And... come straight back" to Aramis cracked me up. What was he thinking? That Aramis would jump the queen as soon as they were safe?
