So I've seen comments on Sucks that Yanu loses the remaining IC, with Bhanu and possibly Q being the ones voted off pre-merge. I don't know where this came from but Kenzie makes the top 8. In a merge situation, if Siga goes in with 6 and Nami has 5 and they want to take out the other side, Kenzie and Tiffany might become valuable assets for a few votes until one side gets the upper hand, and then those two get dumped. Siga is interesting. At least on Nami there's tension there with Venus, and from what we see in the previews for next week maybe cracks with Tevin and Soda. There was also the Andy Griffith alliance episode one with Tevin and Hunter, and then Liz talking about how ridiculously wealthy she is. With Siga, they aren't interesting enough to get current time frame footage in an episode, and instead, we get footage from their tribe from days ago. I mean seriously, how boring are those people? I think Hunter will be a big threat down the road. The fact that he got his backstory package tonight makes me think he could be an early merge boot. Who else has gotten their backstory packages so far? Bhanu, Hunter, Venus...I feel like there have been others.

This overall episode was very meh, which is how I feel about the season so far. I felt like last season had a much better pace for longer episodes, but this season is off to a slow start. It doesn't help that one tribe can't seem to get it together in challenges, and I'll continue to say the 3 tribe format is not helping, along with the advantage with the disadvantage twists. When you have someone like Bhanu, who may have very likely been walking into his last TC tonight, but has a chance to possibly pull off his own miracle by successfully playing his SITD, but then loses that chance because of losing his vote in an advantage. Even the most predictable seasons of Survivor weren't this bad. I knew this episode was probably off to a bad start when the first 12 minutes focused on why Bhanu is not the type of superfan you want to cast, and then we got footage from the Siga camp that was labeled as 4 days old. I was proud of Jem for finding the idol, and I hope Charlie saying he wouldn't tell anyone if he found it is foreshadowing to Jem actually keeping the secret to herself. I was glad to get a break from Tevin on Nami. I admit I got a laugh out of Hunter showing off his Survivor Challenge shrine at home, and then pulling an epic come-from-behind victory in the IC. Of course he would be the one to do that. I hope Venus manages to hang in there because she definitely sounded defeated after Randen left tonight. Which I also find humorous, because she called him an ally when he originally was the one planting stuff about her being untrustworthy to Soda and calling her a liar. But maybe there was more to that duo than we got to see. If Randen left, I assume that means his advantage gets re-hidden? Especially since he never actually got to the idol.

I said in the live chat thread that if Hunter's Survivor Challenge Museum isn't enough of a sign that they need new challenge designs, then I don't know what is. When he was describing the items he had it was pretty much from Probst's script how a challenge is run. Thank you! I'll add this above.

After tonight, I wouldn't rule out Tiffany as a winner contender. I feel like once we get to the merge we'll maybe have more of a read when it comes to the edit and dynamics. But I just don't see how Kenzie isn't either being set up for a humiliating blindside or losing in the FTC because she has poor jury management and can't quit talking about how awesome she is at the game compared to everyone else. But for Tiffany, I'm curious to see where her edit goes. We have Bhanu saying she is super close with Q and won't vote him out, yet is being controlled by Kenzie who is the real mastermind. She seemed reluctant to want to vote Kenzie off tonight, but then Q made it seem like there was a chance that was happening. He maybe planted some seeds at least that Kenzie is a dangerous player. I feel like I need to see more of her before dismissing her chances. In next week's preview, we see Bhanu tell Tiffany he said something wrong. I'm wondering if he confesses to her what he said on the journey, and if that impacts her decisions going forward. I think Yanu goes to at least 1 more TC before the merge so that might show where Tiffany's at in the game-does she vote Bhanu or make a move and vote Kenzie. When you mention the Denise/Malcolm reference those two made, I wonder if Maria will actually be Charlie's demise. Like he feels safer with her and potentially bringing her in with the guys over being on the bottom with the girls, but maybe she ends up being his demise in the game. I just don't feel like we have enough info on Siga yet. Ben mentioned not wanting to tell his tribe he lost his vote because he might see cracks appear. So he at least doesn't seem to have an alliance, or at least one that he trusts fully.

I am wondering about that, because when we last left Tiffany she wanted to get rid of Bhanu. So maybe this would have been an interesting TC after all.

Survivor 46 Previews and Speculation (NO SPOILERS)
LadyChatts replied to LadyChatts's topic in Survivor
Next week: Members of Siga are digging in a tree trunk and Tim says 'is it under here?' There's a TH from Moriah saying they found something mysterious and it made their brains melt. A shot of Soda talking to Hunter, saying something about 'we're all vibing because I love everyone', with a voiceover from Tevin saying she's manipulating and that Soda's got to goda. Bhanu confesses to Tiffany that he said something wrong, and a TH from Kenzie saying Bhanu needs to go. Wonder if he confesses what he told Liz and Ben at the journey? -
And Q is disappointed because he actually thought Kenzie was going home this week. Maybe Bhanu will survive next week if Kenzie considers Q a bigger threat and gets Tiffany to vote with her.
-
Bhanu's probably the only one whose joy is genuine. Don't worry Bhanu, you'll probably be able to give that heartfelt goodbye speech next week.
-
Yeah, I think Bhanu will be safe by default. It's funny that Venus is talking about what a close ally Randen was, not knowing he was talking crap about her being a liar and untrustworthy. Hey Bhanu, here comes your miracle. He looks a lot like Jeff Probst.
-
I didn't care much for Randen, but I hate to see people get pulled. Especially when Probst says there's a chance he might be fine but he just needs more testing than they can do out there.
-
Okay, we are at Nami and here comes medical and Probst. Randen's going to get pulled for sure.
-
17 minutes left and I can't believe we are going to come back to more of Yanu pretending it won't be Bhanu and seeing Bhanu cry. We didn't see them start off for TC before the commercial so maybe something else is going to happen.
-
Q is making valid points here. But I doubt he'll get Tiffany to change her mind. Kenzie is a bigger threat than Bhanu, other than Bhanu can't keep his mouth shut. I swear I've never heard people talk about what big Survivor players they are like the members of Yanu (minus Bhanu) do.
-
I'm sad Bhanu is going to leave but dang, put this guy out of his misery already. And now we get the 'maybe it won't be Bhanu after all!' because we have to pretend the obvious isn't going to happen.
