Who ended up with the shields? I know Carolyn was fighting someone for one of them but I FFed through a lot of that.

On the mission, were Rob, Carolyn and Danielle split up so that they know who has the 3 shields? I forget what happens if they try to murder someone with a shield.

Season 5 Discussion Thread

Well, EXACTLY! This reboot has ret-conned things from the beginning. Lighten up, people. -
To me, it's no different from watching a commercial on television. While that commercial might make me aware of a product I hadn't heard of before, I would never buy a product just because someone else uses it. But I've also never been impressed by celebrity endorsements of any kind. And I'm a boomer who supposedly grew up in a simpler age. I would have thought a younger, more social media savvy generation would have more skepticism.

I think the phrase is "I would like to have his babies".

I wonder if they were told in advance how many rounds of the riddle game were going to be played. It made no sense to go early, when presumable everyone (except Danielle) was going to give themselves a shield, but it seemed like a majority of people didn't even TRY to play. I also didn't like them editing out many of the riddles and answers, just showing who won or lost.

Quoting myself from 4 1/2 years ago: I'll be frank, I don't remember much if anything from the 2nd and 3rd seasons like I do season 1 because Bryan Cranston in S1 was so freaking awesome as the bad guy and the finale was jaw-dropping. But because of your post I've reread some of comments about S3 and while people had criticisms, I don't think anyone was saying that season was bad the way the last season of Westworld was bad. A show like this is hard to write because multiple story strands have to be laid out and then woven together in surprising ways in the finale. Easy to do the first time when you're not on the clock, but harder once you get renewed and have to do it again and again. I know I would have gladly watched a season 4 if they had made it.

Eh, he's been OK but not more than that. Allison, however, was MADE for this show. She's terrific.

Does anyone in the UK know WTF is going on with Noel Fielding? Apparently AppleTV has pulled the 2nd season of Dick Turpin because he didn't show up to film the last part of it and now there are questions about whether he's going to stay on GBBO. The articles I'm seeing over here in the US are just rehashes of what the authors have seen elsewhere on the internet like a giant game of telephone. But aside from nebulous statements from his agent, no one is saying what the actual problem is.

Season 5 Discussion Thread

Did anyone else find this episode incredibly boring? In a 6 episode season, this one was totally wasted, IMO. -
I'm just disappointed that all these women seem to focus exclusively on pumping out babies and being SuperMom. Also, I don't know who is in charge of documentaries at HBO these days, but they seem to be paying by the minute. Just like the excruciatingly boring Hot Yoga one, the producers are taking multiple episodes to drag out a story that Dateline or 20/20 could tell in 45 minutes plus commercials.

The circus challenge required no strength at all and they mucked it up completely.

I wasn't sure about having a group of 4 traitors, but this is working out fine. There has been antagonism between the traitors before, but I can't recall outright war. BTW, I would appreciate it if people didn't spoil the winners of the international versions of the show in the threads for this show. You can describe situations ("Wow, that final had 2 faithfuls and one traitor." ) without naming names.

I don't have the encyclopedic recall of others when it comes to Survivor, but I remember thinking that Carolyn was a ditz at the beginning of her season but liking her quite a lot by the end of it.
