whammo

Oh, pleeze. Besides all the issues above, DeLuca in a red jumpsuit is ridiculous. No sane person confesses a white-collar crime to the police without getting a lawyer. No sane employer calls the cops on said employee without instructing that person to get a lawyer. Even without a lawyer to arrange self-surrender, he'd be held for arraignment/bail in a jail cell in street clothes. He'd get a bail he could easily make, and be out on the street in a couple of hours. If Meredith winds up in a red jumpsuit, I'm out.

Brian, I actually was rooting for you, but you're an idiot. You're dead to me. I've enjoyed this season. A few clever tasks we haven't seen before, the outsiders clawing their way to the top -- basics for a good season. But, the entitlement and self-righteousness of Mat, Steve, Shawn and Sharn is unearned and irritating. You can argue that Shonee and Monica have been relatively useless to date, but at this point I'd much rather one of them win over the bitter and the stupid. I'd prefer a Contender over a Champion, so I oddly find myself on Team Shonee. Biggest fear, Brian wins individual immunity, so everyone knows he's safe and he doesn't have to use his idol. Then the vote "should" be 3 for Sharn and 2 for Shonee. Monica flips, Shonee goes. We're stuck with all champions, none of whom are worth a damn, either socially obnoxious (Sharn and Shane) or useless in game play (Monica and Brian). As the least bad choice, Team Shonee for the win!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, Tristan gets screwed on two continents with non-competitive partners. Sadly, I give him about 3 weeks. At least the roaming tongue made an appearance.

Peachy and the inventor of the TPI just demonstrated why overindulgence in HIIs sucks -- I want to watch Survivor, not Treasure Hunt.

I kinda like bitter juries when they do the right thing. I still think Tony owes Spencer a pretty big cut of the million.

Wow. Spencer may have just won Tony a million bucks.

DAMN! Woo smacks down Kass! And, Tony has flushed this down the crapper.

Holy Crap! Woo can actually string together full sentences that make sense. That may be one of the better opening statements this game has seen in a while.

Colby is banging his head against a table right now.

Side note -- Peachy's live bits are pretty cringy and quite useless.

My current fantasy - Woo drops the Keanu Reeves voice at Final Tribal and turns out to be a brilliant scientist. And, will get a great giggle if it turns out that the spirit of Spencer rises from Ponderosa and smites Tony.

I think Amy's very inspirational, but how do you pull 3 10s when you mess up the leg synchronicity on a dance sitting on a table that is entirely based on synchronicity? And, James' dedication to Peta made me sick in my mouth just a little. And, and . . . Erin said "money shot." Heh, heh!

SHOCKING ELIMINATION!! Time. I thought they would have pimped this more.

Two 9s? Safe? Apparently, God did get out of the tub for Candace. James is definitely road kill.

I started out this ep with a thought that never crossed my mind last time around -- I wanted the Afghanimals to win. Kiss of death. Sorry guys. Though, you might have been a titch more humble on the way out the door ("We'll ALWAYS be remembered!). Like the rest of you, I just don't care who wins anymore. I've backed D&C even through their more annoying moments, but Connor's pouting throughout made them dead to me tonite. He still has great hair, though. Country girls -- congratulations on competently running a leg all by yourselves! Well, almost competently. If you'd pulled off the win and managed not to get lost, I might have backed you until the end. Brenchel -- there were moments this season where I didn't hate you. You almost brought me on side for a minute or two. Today, though, was Rachel Classic, which reminded me why I have intensely disliked you in every reality TV show you've ever been on. If I HAD to choose between the three, I'd choose . . . . wait, I don't have to. Globetrotters FTW!
