kvm1977#213

I mean, Marianne annoys me but I know she's not insufferable just like Jonathan isn't.

kvm1977#214

Also, this episode is better than all of the best moments of S41.  The minor changes to the twist helped and these people are truly playing.

I know the casuals are lost because even I'm completely confused.

Confused about?

kvm1977#217

Wow even Hai voted for Lydia--kudos to him for playing the game.  Rocksroy voted for Lindsay so is no one talking to him at all?

Peacekeeper22#218

Drea would be good for The Challenge.

Peacekeeper22#219

Drea, Maryanne and Lindsay <3

Flopnanas#220

Drea would be good for The Challenge.

 Hopefully the cbs one bc Yall already complain as is about them casting 30 year old rookies on mtv when drea's like 36 lol

I'n still pissed at this twist, it's unfair and Probst is SOOO lucky Lydia's worthless behind left and not Jonathan or Maryanne. It would have been an outrage imo. He's also lucky this cast is soooo good cause they saved this awful twist. Every single person contributes and adds to the show. Drea, Tori, and Maryanne are iconic women. We deserve a Drea win sooo bad. She has potential to be Parvati level of iconic. Omar and Mike emerged as new favorites for me as well. Hai is ruthless and I love it too. I can't wait to see how this plays out! Never in Survivor have I loved every person in the game, especially at this point in the game.

ChampionDarrell#222

watching this now, 

Jeff excited as hell to do the EXACT SAME TWIST lmaoooo

The change: "THE FOOD IS FROM APPLEBEE'S"  haahahahahahhahaahhaha

"The person can change the game"

i cant believe this

great episode but i really wanted jonathan to go for the outrage :( 

TwoStrikes#224

the only person who adds nothing to this cast now is lindsay

ChampionDarrell#225

this cast didnt need ANY twist this season to make it good. notice how irrelevant maryanne's idol is, or any of these dumb other twists in regards to the gameplay. 

this is just going to end up with a *********** at like top 7-8 where 50 advatnages get played adn someone gets robbed that has ZERO to do with strategy

flyguy#226

was hoping for a jonathan or hai boot but lydia is whatever. Lol @ hai saying he doesnt trust rox when they were deciding who to send to exile. 

anon12423452355...#227

I loved Tori pulling a page out of the Ayanna book of generosity and giving her castmate a gift.

Challenge 17#228

I don't like tori but the way she has the Facebook page seething makes me want to root for her

KChallenge10#229

That twist is dumb and I wish Jonathan would have left because Jeff/producers probably would have been pissed. Lydia is useless so I'm fine with her going and I'm lowkey a Tori fan lol 

Drea or Maryanne for the win though 

Challenge 17#230

The twist is dumb because there's such little reason not to smash it, why risk yourself when you have the chance to be safe 

ChampionDarrell#231

I just finished Australian survivor and that may be one of the worst seasons of gameplay I've ever seen 

Sandra or Nina would have won I think 

TwoStrikes#232

Drea with another advantage, tori with another individual win 2/2, and maryanne using her emotions as a weapon. absolute queens. this cast is fantastic, minus like 4 people

kvm1977#233

Hopefully Tori wins every immunity challenge this season

flyguy#234

not a fan of tori but I always love when the "easy" vote wins immunity ... unless its a white man

flyguy#235

noooo chanelle lmao

not done w the episode but jeff talking to the camera is one of the worst things they added 

ChampionDarrell#238

Drea and the religious guy are getting great edits but im lowkey rooting for Tori 

Flopnanas#239

Tori drea and Maryanne stole the show yet again 

timster3#240

Drea is going to flop hard. And there's a reason why in modern advantage gate seasons the winners end up being people that did not find or use an advantage or only had 1 and it was never game changing for them. I just know she's going to go home with every single advantage in her pocket. I really don't see why you would risk going for that fourth advantage when you already have three of them.... So greedy.

i dont get that sense, her edit is good. sarah had a ton of advantages and won. 

i do think someone like maryanne is going to end up a losing finalist though (spec not reading spoilers this season)
