The HD didn't look so good tonight. It was almost like a 16X9 Standard Def image on Dish Network.

I thought I was watching Legally Blonde with Sugar searching for HII.

That girl must be dumb to get rip of Ace so early in the game. Without him, it would be a sure bet they will lose more physical challenges.

Well, his bio did say he grew up in London. So I'll say it's real.

I didn't think they'd get rid of him. But they could have just as easily gone after Sugar. That would have broken his clear alliance while keeping him in the game. And they could have done it under the guise of wanting to vote out one of the two weakest players. (According to them.)

I think they may be after her at the next tribal.

It was good to see the other tribe finally win. That one dude (who was elected the leader and then quit) sure has a chip on his shoulder.

I'm glad Sugar found the HII, that means she'll be around a little longer to look at! She's sexy. I especially liked when she was bent over talking to Ace. Anybody have those screencaps?

Yes, I would have hated for another lopsided season like we had last year (and maybe the year before?).

I was wondering if the losing tribe had the balls to vote out Ace and for awhile there when he got 2 votes and Paloma smiled, I thought maybe we had a big upset in the making. But of course, they played it safe.

It was probably a little too early to vote Ace out because he is their strongest player and it seems like the other tribe is finally hitting its stride.

Yea, "I can talk if I want to:, "I can ask you a question if I want to", I can whine, snivel and complain if I want to". I think he needs a hug.

I really liked that the girl found the HII so easily while the lawyer gave up his quest looking for a crater in the middle of the pond.

Sugar is growing on me. She seems like she would be fun to hang out with. She was pretty good at entertaining herself while on exile island.

She was really having a good conversation with the camera person. Most people kind of look off to the side when they are being focused on, but she was having a one on one with the camera person. It must have been a hot guy!

To be fair, she got another clue. I think she got a map to the location of the 1st clue. That doesn't explain why Dan was looking in the middle of the pond.

I think they have been to drum up more drama and make Tribal Council more exciting. Unfortunately, not too many have seen the light of day and been played!

I think she got another clue because she was able to figure out the first one, the crater. Though I am not sure if her first clue had more info than the lawyers clue.

I love the fact that Mr. Tough Guy GC was weak as a puppy during the reward challenge. He pried at the guy's arms for all of two minutes before he was gassed.

I watched the VP Nominee Debate in Hi Def on CBS leading up to Survivor, then my local CBS affiliate aired Survivor in 4x3 SD on the same OTA channel. WTF??

Was I the only person who caught this exchange?!?

Jeff: "Kelly, do you think Ace is an asset to your tribe?"

Kelly: "Uhhmm, in some cases because he's almost condescending in a way."

Jeff: "How is condescending a good thing?"

Kelly: "It's not a good thing at all sometimes... Uhhmm say we're cooking rice or something, he'll be like 'oh I thought we were gonna make water' like if somebody wants to make rice like let us make rice we don't necessarily need water right now."

I loved that too:
--Jeff: "GC has quit altogether!"

That dude has a serious problem and needs counseling more than a hug, like when the older guy told him to stop asking over and over if he was trying to be the leader, "I can ask you whatever I want." "Well then I can just not answer you." Nice...

Finally watched the episode.

Memo to all teams: tanking challenges always backfires.

You're not the only one. Its easy to see why her and Palmoa were such good friends. Dumb and Dumber.......
