Do we know who voted for Janet? I was shocked!

I'm impressed with both TC votes so far this season. Not going for the usual weakest links!

True but in all fairness that TAR teams would have struggled more than others if they were dropped on a beach in Survivor. They've learned through experience already. Hopefully they just wouldn't whine about it as much as the Survivor teams whined last night!

It compliments his orange D-list spray tan!

Lauren B. is 25 it's not as bad as 22 but still relatively young compared to Aries 36 in overall life experiences.

Not only is Bekah too cute for this show she is the type of girl that scares the heck out of the other girls! She is non-conforming and owns it which means she can't be controlled with usual girl-code behavior. A gal can be stunningly beautiful, dressed to kill, and boring as heck yet, you can look at Bekah and know she is going to be unique and fun. Very threatening combo to many ladies! It's not just her age that makes her wrong for Arie, she has too much spunk and perkiness for him. They both need something different from a partner, IMO.

Just finished catching up on the season last night. Can see I'm not the only one that feels the overload of idols and the "twist" were put in place to ensure Ben making it to F3 and ultimately winning. I try to not get caught up in favorites but watch for who is playing the best game. When a player gets to F3 it should be because they made the right moves to get there even when they didn't have numbers on their side. Ben was given the red carpet to F3, IMO. Then he smartly used the opportunity to tell his "hero" story and really, who isn't going to vote for the veteran? I would have too... but I don't think he deserved the title of sole survivor. Maybe it was because we were binge watching the finale 5 episodes but it all felt very manipulated.

Interested in hearing this story play out. Thinking about how many women have exited this show under strange circumstances; Ann Curry, Natalie Morelos, Tamron Hall. Can't believe what a hypocrite Matt is reporting news stories on so many other men in similar situations. His ego must be huge to think he was untouchable.

So not surprising to hear about Matt this morning. My DH and I actually talked about Matt and the probability of sexual allegations that could come against him a couple of weeks ago. Men like Matt and Harvey must think they were untouchable but all of the attention lately on inappropriate workplace events is taking them down! I'm curious if it has anything to do with Natalie Morelos and her departure to be on a show out west. I believe there were rumors about something happening between her and Matt while covering the Olympics and I can't believe it was mutual on her side... he is slimy. Savannah is very naïve and her personal comments this morning were an embarrassment to women who have been harassed or put in inappropriate sexual workplace behavior situations. She needed to be more professional and not so concerned about Matt while reporting this story. In all honestly we stopped watching the Today Show awhile ago and Meghan Kelly is so horrible on her segment that I don't even tune in for KL and Hoda. I wish the Today Show luck now... they need a complete overhaul!

It was extremely bizarre yesterday. She was obviously confused and slurring, then appeared almost to hallucinate like she was seeing something come at her, then just collapsed straight downward. I agree she has gotten extremely thin lately so not sure what all she is taking but that combined with stress and lack of food made for a scary moment. Also was strange how she did come back after the incident and carried on to finish the show like nothing happened.

I'm beginning to think Matt is the main problem with this show. He is derogatory to his female co-hosts and regardless of the political environment still refers to Trump as Mr. Trump and not President Trump. Right there it makes his segments more opinion and less news. Give me the news, facts and all, and not an opinion piece from Lauer... and show a little respect.

I thought Savannah was due back last week... has Meghan totally messed up the anchors on this show?

So disappointed this morning to see GMA give so much time to the man that disrupted the Trump rally and caused the Secret Service to go into action. Nobody that causes a security risk should be given air time, it just creates a situation that other protesters will try to gain attention at any rally for either candidate. I wish the media would not sensationalize bad behavior.

I'd been a long time fan of Today but for the past couple of years found I was only watching because it followed my favorite local morning news show. The antics this past year finally forced me to look else where and I've landed on GMA. What a breathe of fresh air! I'd advice anyone still hanging on out of habit to just do it, change the channel, you won't be disappointed and you certainly won't be missing anything. Actually I've gained some very entertaining morning news personalities with broader opinions and more neutrality. I just wish somebody would save Al!!

I was already so over the Today Show and their lack of fair reporting or interesting personalities but this just made it easier to cut the cord completely. If they had been at all fair and neutral on some topics I would be more forgiving on the way they've handled the Billy Bush tape but this just emphasizes their lack of integrity.

Maybe it's just me but I'm finding the "professionals" tactics this season coming across as straight up bullying and manipulation. Thank goodness Heather stuck to her guns and called for the divorce. It's not even anything against Derek as much as she saw the farce that the match-makers were pulling and wasn't going to play their game. The other couples are a bit more trusting and seem to be allowing themselves to buy into the "process" or they are just willing to play along for a few more weeks. Over all the seasons this is the most obvious that they just threw darts at the board and called them "matches". I'm having a difficult time finding anything remotely close to having things in common between these couples that would constitute a good match. Beyond that, none of their personalities are lending themselves to make good tv either. Thought maybe Miami would bring the fire needed to refuel this show but no...

These kids have a lot of talent particularly for their age. I wish they had shown more dancing last night. If the next episodes are similar I may not make it to the live rounds. It's brutal to watch kids get cut and I cannot imagine the stress they are feeling. I would have liked to have seen the kids working with their All Stars more. Maddie is a complete waste of airtime. Her distain is because 99% of these kids can out dance and perform her, she just got lucky that she started on a reality show years ago and has a foot in the business. While she can dance, her talent has not been as strong as the story lines that boosted her "career".

Savannah cannot interview Trump. He bowls her over every time and it is just a frustrating experience to watch. She is seriously lacking interview skills.

Personally, I am finding the SM interaction much more exciting than the actual season! Do Ashley and her family/friends really think that taking to SM in this defensive and childish manner, is really going to save her crappy edit and turn David into the villain? Ashley stated all of the negative comments in her PI's and has had bad behavior since the wedding. She signed up for a tv wedding... what did she expect? It takes 6 weeks of pure strength and resolve to get through without a bad edit. If you don't say it, it can't be used against you. Ashley and her family need to get off social media and just move on. They are making it worse on themselves but I guess more entertaining for the rest of us!

Between the hallucinations and springing 3 years forward and back again, I'm not sure I know what is real or fake anymore or if I even care. Agree with other posters that the good/bad brother story line is old. Anyone else count how many times Damon referred to Stephan as "brother" this episode? Began to wonder if he forgot his own brothers name while stuck in the Phoenix Stone... either that or they are making a new drinking game. We need more of the fun scenes like Bonnie and Matt being matched on the dating site and the baby shower diaper game. Too much bad mommy and crappy MF characters. I'm trying to stick with this season but it feels like they are purposely trying to lose viewers.

Introvert, extrovert, physical attraction or not... even if David is an over excited puppy who cannot contain his desire for physical affection and attempts to progress the marriage, Ashley has lacked basic communication that could have solved many of these issues. To be married means to have tough conversations and she should have sat David down weeks ago and set some boundaries. All of this could have been avoided if she would have just communicated openly, honestly, and directly about her boundaries and comfort level. David is a smart, decent man, from what I've seen he would have been happy to have the communication and would have respected her boundaries. Good communication can lead to a deeper relationship. I just wish Ashley would have at least attempted it instead of freezing him out which has led to some crazy accusations and speculations on both of their personalities and reasons for doing the show.

Watching this episode I continue to have the feeling that the experts identified 6 individuals to be on the season and then worked out which woman would be matched to which man. Wonder if the geographic issues this season have to do with them originally planning on different matches. I not that familiar with the locations they are all from but would Ryan D have been better with Davina? Ryan R with Jessica? Sean with Jaclyn? Feels more like they used the dart board approach to matching. These people are not even likeable. At least last season I could root for them through the issues because they were mostly likeable.

Regardless of Sean's issues, and he has MANY, I could never tolerate Davina's me me me attitude. How many needs/wants did she lay down? Then proceeds to arrange the whole NYE to her liking? There is no compromise going on in their relationship and even a sane person would check out. She needs a little purse dog with a collar and leash, not a husband. I don't think Ryan is as into Jaclyn as she is into him. He is the straight line and she zigzags back and forth hopefully they end at the same point. Ryan and Jessica? Just no. Last season the couples had more interaction and meetings each week with an "expert". This season is sadly missing that component and it is obvious by how off track the couples seem to be.

When someone says they are open to relocate, they probably are open to it, but that doesn't mean they want Manhattan. Manhattan is a lifestyle and not for everyone. Davina's "sex in the city" personality started to show itself as they were driving into the city and she was on my last nerve by the time they hit the lunch spot. Any of her likeable characteristics shown in the previous episodes quickly vanished. Sean is just creepy. The match-makers did a horrible job with this couple. The experts will claim they gave them each what they asked for but that in reality it's not what they actually want. Similar to the excuses they gave for Vaughn a Monet last season.

I'm still on the Sawyer train and I look forward each week to hear his unique interpretation of a song. The emotion he puts into his music is incredible particularly since he is so young. Yes he stands on stage and plays the guitar but I prefer that to the gimmicks some of the other artists need to be entertaining. I don't even vote but when he puts out his first album I will buy it... and I am no teeny-bopper! You can tell that it's the point in the show when all of the singers voices are getting strained and tired.
