Im sorry, but theres no way Eliza is not in the final two...you have to be a complete idiot not to take the seasons most annoying player into the jury...
BTW, has ANYONE used the fishing angle since Brady tried it?
Chris COULD have been the mack daddy by bringing the girls fish.

also, Chris is still an idiot in my book. He couldn't even come up with the idea to bring Eliza into an alliance with him. Twila had to tell him. She told him that she hasn't even tried talking to the wild card yet. Chris says, you mean you (Twila)? Then he says "Scout?" Finally Twila has to say, Eliza.

I missed the very end when they interviewed Leann. What did she say? what was her reaction? I knew she was going when she said she didn't motivate her friend in the challenge bc she wasn't in danger of being voted off

I want Eliza to win. Maybe I just like to root for the underdog. Maybe I like her breasts better than Ami's. Either way, I would be quite unhappy with a final two that didn't include Eliza.

Count me in as another who didn't see anything so terrible about Chris' interaction with his girlfriend. It must be a terrible feeling to realize that the one immunity challenge you absolutely MUST win is going to be played by someone else. Of course, I've never had as much of a problem with the men Lopevi as everyone here. There was nothing wrong with the men voting Brook, JP and Brady off. The only mistake I think they made was voting John K off when they did. The thing is, John didn't do himself any favors by conspiring against Chad when he could have presented a united front and targeted Twila or Julie.
The women of Yasur were doing the exact same thing by voting off Dolly and Mia, but people around here don't seem to mind as much since the women ended up controlling the second half of the game. It shouldn't be an issue anyway, as this game really isn't about who did well in what challenge and it never has been. So Chris had a lot of trouble with the balance beam. So what? This isn't a game about balance beams. Should he have volunteered himself at Tribal Council that night? Eliza after the pig challenge? Leann after the swimming challenge?
This game is about surviving the other people. Part of that involves alliances. Chris gathered 4 men and created one. They stuck to their alliance (which is probably a smart move early in the game to ensure trust later on) and weren't doing bad until they lost two of their men to a swap. After that Chris did everything in his power to get ahead in the game. Lopevi did well post-swap. They only faltered with the John vote and I explained that above. It's not like it was a drastic 8-2 ratio at the merge. No season of Survivor has had a extremely lopsided merge.

Isn't that how it always is? 2 episodes to get them down to the final 4 and the last two hour show has the first hour getting it down to the final 2 (no reward) and then the final hour is it.

Previews made it look like a new episode. My guess is that if they haven't done a clip-show yet, they won't at all.

I'll give credit to Chris though. He was an easy choice to be gone the first week, and he instead convinced the mildly retarded soon to be members of the fat five to slit their own throats by instead voting off their strongest teammates in the first days of the series and thereby ensuring they would lose and lose and lose again to be later picked off by the otherwise far weaker female team. And somehow Chris still survives.
