  1. That risotto made with corn looked exactly like dog vomit. For a minute I actually thought he was going for that for the “chaos” but no it just looked incredibly unappealing.

    (Add me as another who loves Kristin’s outfits btw.)

  2. At this point it looks like both Q & Liz will be dragged along to the Final Three. I really hate the strategy of taking horrible players to the end. As a viewer it makes the show practically unwatchable.

    I know it's within the rules!  In my book what they did was cheating even though it's allowed

    🧐 I don’t think you understand what “cheating” actually means. If something is allowed, it is by definition not cheating.

    I've only seen the first two episodes and I think that may speak volumes on my interest in this season. Does it get better or should I skip this season?

    Not really. Boring tasks, every episode in a location that seems the same, bunching start-times. One of the worst seasons overall so far. (Nothing will touch the awfulness of the Family season)

    That may be, but, the only answer then is to never accept any racers who are native speakers of another language.  That doesn't sit well with me.

     No… the answer is to never again have a season only set in counties that speak Spanish. If the reason this happened was because of Covid restrictions then hopefully such a season will never happen again. But it sure makes this one boring.

  5. I’m getting so sick of this entire season being in Latin America. It’s no wonder the boyfriends have been leading the whole time since they can speak the language. This season can hardly be called “a race around the world.”

    Since Andrew won the last Master's, and Amy and Sam were finalists, why do they have to win this tournament to get back in? Wouldn't they be locks to get an invite? This has been bugging me all JIT long.

    Andrew didn’t win. The finalists were James, Matt and Mattea with James winning.

    It's only within the last month or so that I learned what she looked like.

    So, point taken. But there is much culture and history out there and when an entire generation knows none of it... Well, it's not a good sign for the country.

    One person on TAR doesn’t know Elizabeth Taylor and now “an entire generation doesn’t know older culture!!” Why are young people supposed to know everything from when Boomers were young, but you not knowing current pop culture doesn’t also mean “omg the country is dooooooomed!”

    Funny how you ignored that some of the younger people did the best on the rebus and map while the one who went home was one of the older teams.

  8. I really don’t know why Tevin has such a hate-on towards Venus. And Kenzie was acting so much like the Cool Girl wanting to stick with all the men while making fun of the “girly girl.” Both those two seem like such toxic people.

  9. What was Brandon doing to that poor buzzer!? 😆 I’ve never seen anyone else hold it in such an awkward way before.

    I also got the meso=middle part of the clue but got stuck on noxia-noxious? Bad? Dangerous? Totally didn’t think of “night” but was obvious once revealed.

  10. “At least I made them dig for three days, so serves them right for voting me off.”

    uhhhhh, that’s not how that works. It’s “serves you right” for making them dig. I don’t think she was as great a liar as she thought. Every time someone would mention the idol she’d start smiling and looking like she was trying to stop laughing. Totally looked like she knew something and was pretending she didn’t.

    I thought Ben was pretty clever at Tribal, “you want to make sure the people you choose will stick with you after the merge. Btw I’m getting a Siga tattoo!”

  11. How in the world did all three of these champs not know FJ!? It was so easy! I immediately thought wound+nickname-> Scarface->Al Capone and spent the rest of the 30 seconds trying to figure out what the trick was because surely it couldn’t be that obvious.

  12. I had no idea Yuri Gagarin died in a plane crash! I also said Dag Hammarskjöld, after being totally stumped by what “Sochi 6” meant. All I could think of was the Chicago 7 but knew that couldn’t be right since the trial was after 1968, and finally just said a name of an international person who died in a plane crash. Mercury 7 of course! That makes so much more sense.

  13. Well that was the first time I fast forwarded through Tribal and didn’t even watch the vote. I could not stand to hear another whiny pity party for Bhanu. You did not win my heart Bhanu, you took a spot from someone who actually wanted to play the game. He’s got to be up there as of one of the worst players in Survivor history. Seeing him flopping around on the ground like a dead fish was just embarrassing!

    Oh and I noticed Soda yet again grabbing the idol out of Venus’s hands.

    Liv diving under the car and shooting around under there was practically satire. Maybe the mechanic is (or looks) young but FFS what's up with Liv derisively telling him he looks too young to drive and just being like "you can't possibly know how to do your job."

    Well the mechanic was a man. Just imagine Liv saying that same exact line to a female tech who looks young. She’d probably congratulate her for being so far  along in her career at a young age.

    Fin: “It’s not about the victims, it’s all about you, Liv!” Most accurate line of the season. I laughed.

    Finally an interesting case with a killer unlike others we’ve seen, and the show still manages to ruin it with St Olivia worship.

  15. Yeah I hate the chartered flights. It made sense during Covid but it really saps so much of the drama from the race. Seeing teams have to figure out on their own how to best get from place to place and choosing between various flights and airlines was always one of my favorite parts. Without the airport drama the show can be quite boring.

    Don’t they normally start with 11 teams? I guess they have 13 this time because there aren’t any non-elimination legs.

    BULLSHIT. Anthony Hopkins had less screen time than Lily in Silence of the Lambs and he STILL won Best Actor that year!!!!!

    Anthony Hopkins winning over 30 years ago has no relevance to who won this year. The voting body is different, there are more international members, and the movies and performances are different.

    I don't like putting my jacket on the back of the chair, but that is where the jacket goes. I don't see that it would be in the guys space as he's sitting in the chair. 

    Not in theaters. I’ve never seen anyone drape a coat over the back in a theater like that. It would be in the way of the persons legroom. You either sit on it, put it on your lap, or under the seat.

    I’m now reading in Deadline about all of the In Memoriam omissions.  There were many that I didn’t think of, besides dear Treat.  Norman Lear, Burt Young, Cormac McCarthy, Frederick Forrest, Lance Reddick who’s been mentioned here.  And they’re saying that Treat was in that small print of names that appeared in the big circle at the end of the Memoriam.  The consensus is that the whole thing was a massive fail.  

    Did Norman Lear do movies? I think of him as a TV person. Treat Williams and Lance Reddick were some of the names I saw in the big list at the end. I also caught Ron Cephas Jones, Sinead O’Connor and Suzanne Sommers. It went off the screen too fast before I could read the others. (I had no problems reading the names during the montage though.)

    eta: just watched it again and Norman Lear was also in the big list at the end.

    I don’t know what Pacino was doing. I really wish they would stop bringing out the octogenarians to announce the Best Picture. It is always awkward. He made it so anti-climactic, you could tell the audience wasn’t sure how to respond after he said “My eyes see Oppenheimer.” There were several beats before anyone clapped or the theme music started.

  19. So how did Frank actually die? Did I miss what they said his cause of death was? Blood loss from the stab wounds? Didn’t they say he only died 24 hours after Joey Bishop? So he wouldn’t have starve to death that quickly, and if he died that fast why did he resort to eating maggots from a dead body? Did the wife know he was still alive when she walled him up and how did she do such a professional job of installing the walls? Everything happened over a weekend right? Not a whole week?

    Really this whole case made no sense.
