Taylor Swift mention!  I wonder how many times Charlie will mention that this season.

It's like being cursed. Listen, I respect Taylor Swift's talent but this past year especially it's become insufferable with the constant smoke up her ass. Can I get a break with at least one show?

[iMonrey]

Holy filler Batman. If this is the best they've got we don't need 2 hours.

[Lantern7]

Is this the first time the term “stan” has been used?

[vb68]

Why do I feel like they are trying to take a cue from the NFL and are hoping Taylor at least posts about the show? I'm sure they would switch back to a live finale if they knew she'd come.

What kind of dummy goes on this show and brags about how much money they have?

[truthaboutluv]

Liz is STILL bleating on about how much money she has? No worries, Liz, you don't have to worry about not needing the money because you WON'T win. 

[LadyChatts]

Moriah and Liz have to be secret twins or sisters.  This is like The Parent Trap: Survivor Style or something.  Those two just look too similar for me.

[KaveDweller]

Why does this Liz lady keep talking about having so much money?

That is obnoxious in general. On Survivor it is obnoxious and stupid.

[MerBearHou]

“Everyone wants to be with Liz, trust me” (says LIZ).  What??!!

[LadyChatts]

I'd say a dummy that hopes it means they get dragged to the final 3 because they can use the argument that they don't need the money but hope the people sitting next to them pissed the other jurors off more.

 

[dizzyd]

These people suck so bad. Idk if I can handle a whole season of this.

[truthaboutluv]

Oh the irony, Randan ends up teaming up with Venus, the one he was quick to tell everyone wasn't trustworthy. 

[LadyChatts]

Wait, Randen goes from calling Venus a liar to suddenly revealing to her he found the advantage?  Why does he need to tell anyone?  Those two are on the bottom by the sounds of it so not sure how this is going to go for him.  He pretty much just handed her a 'directly advance past this TC' card.

. . . and The Challenge is over!

Challenge! Finally!!!

ETA: Holy crap, these people are spicy.

Edited March 7, 2024 by Lantern7

[LadyChatts]

Challenge already?  I wonder if there will be a journey this episode (or maybe a really wild TC).

[Pepper the Cat]

Smack talk at the challenge!

[LadyChatts]

Hunter on Jelinsky: "last name first out".  And he's even asking the Yanu tribe if there were "several" reasons he was voted out.  Q doesn't look amused.

Okay this is the Survivor I've missed!  Drama, mudslinging, Soda asking them how's the food and telling Venus 'he started it'.  

[Lantern7]

Probst has a knife. Good to know, I guess.

Who just said the title quote?

[LadyChatts]

And even Jeff cut the little buff off Nami's idol and tells them they don't own it, they have to earn it.  Why couldn't we have had more time for this?  You can't tell me there wasn't more name calling and snide remarks!

t's still two hours tonight.

Oh fuck’s sake.  I didn’t even know that.  What more could they possibly cram into here?

[iMonrey]

Chop a rope, release wheels, dig up chest, put chest on cart, push cart thru course, open chest, release puzzle pieces, do puzzle.

Yawn.

God forbid this show come up with new challenges.

[Lantern7]

Why do I see vultures circling Liz?

[dizzyd]

They’re even giving out fishing manuals now? Do they give out fire making manuals and stick shift manuals on TAR?

[LadyChatts]

I don't really care who loses but I think I'm rooting for Nami or Yanu if it brings more trash talk post-challenge.  

[Lantern7]

Heh . . . “Mo” and Liz bond on the sit-out bench.

[LadyChatts]

So instead of asking each other what's going on at the other person's camp, Liz and Moriah are admiring each other's glasses and socks.

And now they're bonding on the benches. I think most of these people are actually 12 and it's filmed at a messy summer camp.

[mojoween]

Liz.  No.  Please stop chanting.

[Lantern7]

What is Liz chanting? My anime-addled brain hears it as “Nami-swaaaaan!”

She'd have been a good mate for Jelinski, both delusional af.

I’m impressed they could come up with “persistence”. I have very low hopes for this cast.

[MerBearHou]

I don’t understand physically how this block bridge can stay up.

[LadyChatts]

Despite being unoriginal with the challenge I am glad that this puzzle is a challenge because it has to be held up (and spelled right).

Pre-mature celebration there Nami.

Okay, now I see why they started this challenge so early.  It's taking so long we get a commercial break.

Edited March 7, 2024 by LadyChatts

[Lantern7]

Well, at least there’s no clear-cut favorite. And now we’re going to commercials. Is this a first? Aside from someone getting hurt, I mean.

PESRISTENCE. That was funny.

The arch, once made, is one of the strongest strUctures there is.  There are arches still standing from hundreds of years ago.  No mortar required.  
 

Purple can’t even put the first two letters up correctly.  Ugh. 

 

[Rodney]

Man, this is intense.  A rare Immunity Challenge that actually has me on the edge of my seat, for once!

[iMonrey]

Yanu isn't paying attention to which way the letters go. I still think they're sunk.

They used to build stone arches like that before technology. I remember a challenge like that on TAR a couple seasons ago.

I like that it's anybody's game, and that even the tribes who thought they had it are struggling (Nami because they misspelled the word, Siga because there's fell).  I don't really care if Yanu loses, even though it'll likely be Jess or Bhanu in a predictable boot, but I don't want them to keep losing and get lower in numbers.

[Quilt Fairy]

This challenge turned out to not be boring. 

[Lantern7]

Epic slow motion!

Edited March 7, 2024 by Lantern7

[LadyChatts]

That felt like a long commercial break.  Hey, cool slo-mo shots of everyone sucking at the challenge!  I liked Yanu's with Kenzie falling unsupported with the block.  

 

[Lantern7]

You know, I think Jelinsky’s height would’ve come in handy.

Liz and Soda with the rage!!!

Edited March 7, 2024 by Lantern7

[Haleth]

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. 

[LadyChatts]

Nami wins!  Down to Siga and Yanu.

If Yanu loses I think Jess is toast.  

[Lantern7]

Probst is getting off on Yanu’s woes. Not attractive.

[vb68]

What an insane puzzle.

[iMonrey]

I called that one alright. Second week in a row you could tell who was going back to tribal within the first five minutes. Do better, editors.

[LadyChatts]

Why put Jess in the middle?  She seems like the smallest one of the tribe and is expected to reach the highest and split her arms far apart.  

Yanu must have been put on Lulu's beach.  3 challenge losses in a row.  

Oh, and I just realized Randen doesn't have a vote still because they won.  Venus looks pretty defeated though, she was getting yelled at during that challenge by her tribe.
