Go Grant!

Looking forward to another season!

Go Mike!

I have a feeling that this season will be good!

aktick

Hoping there are some likable personalities, otherwise I'll probably be done if Rob exits before Russell.

Red Dog

Go....

JuryDuty

Go...

....who did I pick again? The girl farmer? Oh, right! Go Andrea!

superfro

I can't wait for another season of people getting mad about Russell! Here and on TV.

Please stay to the end you fantastical moron!

Red Dog

I do look forward to the Russell whining as well. That's more entertaining than the show itself.

aktick

I don't whine about him, I just quit watching and visiting the threads if he starts to annoy me. It is, after all, a TV show that's supposed to be entertaining and fun. When I stop enjoying a show, I stop watching it. Weird, huh?

Cardsfan111

DVR set since I can't watch it live. Looking forward to it.

Making of the Tribal Council Area... kinda cool!

CBS's player is sooooo crappy!

Yeah, but on your way to the episode they'll have a big spoiler as to who was sent packing the night before.

I had a class on Thursday nights a few seasons ago, and those spoilers made me mad (that and the crappy CBS.com player) that I ended up subscribing to the season on iTunes and just downloaded the ep the next morning.

one of the best first tribal counsels ever

Kristina is unbelievably stupid for trying to use the idol at the first tribal. She shouldn't have even told anyone yet. She could have easily just laid low for a few tribals, and then decide what to do and who to tell.

And how can anyone possibly take Phillip seriously enough to confide in him about an idol... what a nutcase.

aktick

What a bunch of dumbasses...and the younger people do truly seem to be idolizing Rob.

If they were smart they'd just get rid of Kristina and Phillip next, to save their own sanity. They both are clearly waaaaaay overplaying the game this early on. Even Russell doesn't do that much scheming before the first tribal.

Quack

These people are insane!!!

Amazing first episode.....lots of wacky nutcases to enjoy watching this season.

Double_Oh_7

Redemption island, Rob and Russell, immunity idols... this season reeks of desperation with all the gimmicks.

Merkin Muffley

Here's another vote for best premiere tribal ever.

And God bless whoever put "Francesqua" on their tribal vote.

NiCK Crush

immunity idols have been a part of the game while a while now. and on their 22nd season, it's not a bad idea to add a new element (Redemption Island)... I'm sure it won't be a standard thing for future seasons, but it is cool to see.

Also, as for Rob & Russell, ever since the Heroes Vs Villains reunion, we knew this would happen.

NiCK Crush

cast is already 10x better than last season's

I knew Francesqua was gone from the moment she opened her mouth during Rob and Russell's introduction. She may get some redemption next week when she faces off against Phillip (if their tribe loses of course). I wonder if they'll show the first face-off next week or the week after? And do we know how long redemption island will last? I'm guessing until the merge, but there may be a definite answer that I just missed.
