Regarding the lack of any recently found immunity idols, is anyone else wondering if maybe production has hidden 67 immunity idols around camp and these bozos just won't get up and go find them? Must be driving Jeff crazy.

I will second your shenanigans with a claim of devilry and mischief. On the first episode, it seemed obvious that a good number of these people would not be able to accomplish the required tasks simply because they were not physically up to the challenge. The contestants seemed to think so, too. But they keep showing tasks that should defeat them -- or any non-athletic, non-trained couch potato -- and they breeze through it after a bit of dramatic whining and whimpering. The ice axe climb and the long ladder climb come to mind. If you are not in great shape, those will kick your ass really quick. But they show them climbing a few rungs or a few steps while saying they can't do it, and then suddenly they're at the top. When the most out of shape, older players are still in the game and succeeding at every physically demanding task, something is afoot.

Dramatic pause, music stops, everyone waiting for the twist when Ramsay calls her back…. ”You have to push the door.” Hilarious!

I was hoping Amy would pull out a Hidden Immunity Idol. Or at least play her Shot in the Dark. Geez, doesn't she know how to play this game?

I think I heard the safety officer’s real explanation: “There’s a big storm coming and that might make this show interesting to watch. We can’t have that. No way, not at all. So pack your stuff.”

Yes. They should just skip the boring “challenges” that everyone breezes through, but that would leave only the nonsensical yammering about who to vote out. The show is such an empty vessel.

Good lord, these people are idiots. Do they not even want the money? “You’re most likely to haul our fat asses to the top, so I’m voting you out.”

I wish no one had said anything about those two idiots eating the stick of butter. Just let them sit there waiting for someone to ask about it and feeling stupid when no one does. What a couple of superficial, attention seeking plasticized nitwits.

Corona dresses like a clown and acts like a child. … I was going to say more about the rest, but nah, these people are all gross.

I'm starting to feel bad for Jane Wickline. She appears in almost nothing, and when she does, she's so stiff and unconvincing. She strikes me as that kid who wants to be part of what's going and the other kids don't dislike her, but when they try to let her join in the fun she just brings the whole thing down.

Veah is using her ex like an emotional support dog she can't be separated from because she might need him at any moment. She explained to Sonny that the ex can't go home because "You threatened to break up with me!" So if Sonny breaks up with her (which he absolutely should do), Veah wants to be able to rush to the arms of her "friend" instead of dealing with it like a grown woman. She is not well. Will her ex always have to be in the wings waiting to protect and console her? If she and Sonny get married and have kids, will that guy have to stay close just in case something goes wrong? Will he be like an emergency boyfriend mounted on the wall with "Break glass in case of sad"? And that ex is no innocent friend. The looks and attitude he gave Sonny said it all.

And Loren adds disgusting, childish table manners to his many charms.

I thought all of those lobster dishes looked terrible. Maybe they tasted great, but the plating was just one unappealing pile of mush after another. Gordon talked about how lobster is supposed to be presented as elegant and sophisticated, but that's not what those dishes looked like.

I don't see it as desperation. She told them because it's pretty outrageous that he hasn't even kissed her yet and she didn't want to play along like everything is fine between them. She has every right to feel like he misled her and put her in an awkward situation with his friends.

I was in the driveway cleaning the carburetor on my lawn mower yesterday when a helicopter appeared, hovering ominously close to me as I focused on my task. Thank goodness I was able to hang on and get the job done.
