I'm kind of liking it. Very interesting use of outcast row or whatever it is called. I don't have any favorites yet or strong dislike of anyone. I only know two of the returning people from past shows.

The Good: This week's episode made it appear as if Colton will be on the chopping block.

The Bad: Colton's tribe won immunity meaning he wouldn't be going home yet.

The Ugly: The previews for next week. Colton.

I have to say I do like the added element of voting strategy with the potential swapping. I'm usually pretty bored with the show until the merge.

Why do they have to a make this show so complicated? I bailed when they started the redemption island nonsense and now they're doing it again but now with three people there at a time?

Well at least Rupert is gone. I have never watched a season with Redemption Island, how long before someone comes back into the game?

in the past I think it's usually at the merge and then they start it back up again and the next person comes back when there's like 5 left

I was wondering the same thing, that's an odd position for two straight guys to be in.

Man, Colton is a foul, vile person. Between him & the ridiculous redemption island I may have to bail on this season.

From a distance at first I thought it was a guy and a woman. I was thinking, "Woah, I'm sure when their loved ones sees this they will have some explaining to do" but then saw who it was. Maybe they're trying to get Colton all worked up?

Speaking of Colton, even though he brings the drama, it's not fun to watch. Hopefully he'll be gone soon.

Oddly, I'm finding the returning players somewhat appealing, even Ar-ass.

And while I got really annoyed by Rupert when he was on every other season, he didn't really bother me this time, though he didn't get much of a chance either.

I much prefer separate reward and immunity challenges instead of a Redemption Island challenge. But I agree that the idea of swapping out, voting dynamics, etc. are putting a different spin on things.

I kinda like the Redemption Island aspect. Your tribe can't completely get rid of you. Also there's the strategy of purposely trying to get there... was't it Boston Rob that did that? Or Ozzy?

But, yeah, this new twist of having loved ones was a great idea. It should really get interesting after the merge. These alliances that are being formed may blow up when someone tries to bring a loved one into it (if they are still playing).

Ozzy did, I'm pretty sure Boston Rob could have begged to be voted out and none of the people he played with on his RI season would have done it.

Can someone please post a screen cap?

Colton: As a gay man myself, I must say that he embodies everything I loathe in another human being. What a piece of shit.

Ugh Colton, I knew there was no way he was getting voted out with how much screen time they gave him.

Candice is strong competitor.

And while it's interesting that you can save a loved one at Redemption I wonder how actually useful it would be, as surely they will be an outsider on the tribe they join with no knowledge of alliances and stuff.

I wonder what happened with TVGN's "Survivor AfterShow" with Pavarti Shallow? They promoted it during the latest installment of the "Survivor Preview" that they run before each season and it turned up in thir schedule eventually. According to TV Guide Magazine, -and my DVR foir a few minutes there, -they were going to run each week's "Survivor" episode (much like they did with "Big Brother", followed by an hour-long "After Show". However, the TVGN website never mentioned the show. Now all signs of it have disappeared.

They're advertising an aftershow with her on CBS.com. I noticed it when I went to grab an image for this week's thread.

It's hard to get voted out when your tribe doesn't even go to tribal council.

That was an LOL moment for me when I noticed it. A very "Tyson" thing to do, I think.

I still think Aras got a bad wrap the first time around.

Terry was the asshole. Like most people from the military he was an inflexible know it all douche bag without a lick of personality.
