Yeah, his broad expressions would probably be considered vulgar. On the other hand I was thinking about how subtle the performances of other actors are, especially Anna Sawai as Mariko. Just the slightest twitch of her lips or narrowing of her eyes to suggest what she is feeling. Oh, kids these days! Leave them alone for a moment and they start a war.

I don’t know. Probably.

Just warming up for Tamron. Unfortunately Patton dared to contradict the all knowing Whoopi.

Only because the guy asks about using it on his... toes. But we all know what he meant.

Good book. I’m looking forward to this.

I finally got to watch. Really enjoyed the dancers who were put through, especially Easton, Olivia, Dakyala, and Jin. I'm disappointed Comfort isn't going to be a judge and Jojo will. She's exhausting. Oh well, I tend to record the show and FF through the judging anyway. The clips of tWitch made me cry.

Those clips of Katie Britt are hilarious. Bless her heart.

I think Whoopi engages in hyperbole. (That's hyper-bowl. 🤣)

Did the Jelinsky several/seven convo occur when all the tribes were together? I thought it was at TC so I was wondering how anyone on another tribe knew about it. Yes! And it’s getting boring.

This was one of those days when they mostly didn’t know what they were talking about. It’s so annoying.

Yeah, but he probably would have quit. I don't really like many (any?) of these people. The ones I kind of liked last week (Bhanu, Soda) showed their ugly sides this week. This may be incorrect, but in the past didn't they actually do more challenges that weren't shown on TV because of time constraints? With the 1.5 and 2 hour time slots you'd think the show could fit in additional challenges instead of all the plotting and complaining. It's getting tedious. Every season is the same.

I’ll be shocked if it’s anyone other than Jess.

What’s with all the makeup Venus is wearing?

If he didn’t decide to give up.

I wonder if it’s against the rules to stand on the chests. It would help with the letters at the top of the arch.

Yeah, and I’m guessing she never hiked the Appalachian Trail either.

That looks fantastic! I can’t wait!

Sunny said she used all her embryos. I guess she didn't have many to begin with. I too loved when Dr Jen kept dismissing Sunny's comments with science.

This was cute, certainly similar to Poker Face and Columbo with the cat and mouse game between the quirky investigator and the villain. I agree Elsbeth can be a bit much if the writers aren't careful with her, so we'll see how well they can balance whimsy and drama. I never watched The Good Wife but I loved The Good Fight. Double spacer here. Heh. I'd heard that was a Boomer thing. I think it's maybe a mark of people who learned to type on a typewriter vs a keyboard. Maybe?

But he didn’t know until Macao until he talked to the priest in the prison.

He did say he was fluent in Portuguese. I didn’t think it was strange that he’d know enough Portuguese (and Spanish and Dutch) to converse in his travels.

I’m with Joy, very depressed about the current state of things. Poor Sara. Being so firm in her opinions and willing to argue with the other hosts must have been too much for her. Taking a day off. From yesterday’s silly segment. I soooo disagree with the hosts that seem to think it was perfectly ok to invite a person to a wedding but not their spouse. I would be pissed off and wouldn’t even send a gift. Don't let the door hit you, Mitch.

Yeah, when he was complaining about that I said “don’t worry, it won’t last long.”

Wow, have they ever had a more useless, less self aware player than Jelinsky? He had to be a fake, right? Quitting every challenge yet thinking (acting) that he would sail through tribal? He couldn't have been real. If you are allergic to everything (especially coconut!), why in the world would you apply to be on Survivor? I'm liking Bhanu and Soda. Tiffany is the one who found the idol? I like her too but I don't know why contestants can't keep quiet about finding idols.

Same here. I watched the original miniseries and read the book decades ago so I remember little except both were fantastic. This one probably is closer to the book since television has changed so much in the meantime. More brutally real. I do remember the antagonism between Blackthorne and the Portuguese and I do remember some of the Japanese politics. Whew, you really have to pay attention to who is on what side. I imagine many viewers are really confused by all the names in the first episode. Omigosh, I had no idea that was Nestor Carbonell! Guess it's been a while since I last saw him on an island. (Or Hiroyuki Sanada for that matter.)
