Synopsis:



I try to stay away from doing the Survivor threads since Auto normally does them, but I'll do it this week since it's almost time for the East airing.

Easiest poll ever, unless she has to armwrestle Cochran

auto

Thanks man. Long day at work and I didn't find time to sneak this one in. Appreciate the assist this week!

funstan

Russell's nephew is one strange, creepy kid.

LiquidSky

Little Russell is a fucking freak!

..and on the other tribe.....

Weed Wacker is a tool.

leeta

Wonder how he passed the psych eval.

GuessWho

Poll is moot... there won't be a redemption challenge until next week after the second person has been there for a day or so.

OldDude

Yeah, but watching Semhar and Christine compete is going to be watching a turtle race a snail. There will be lots of talking trash followed by the lamest competition ever seen.

Red Dog

I got even odds that Russell Jr. spends many years doing hard time.

Cardsfan111

I thought last night's episode was entertaining. I wasn't sure what was going down once the voting started. Every shot of little Russell was good for a laugh.

Spiderbite

Russell Jr. is one creepy douche. Once again going on about how he is married and acting like that chick is just all over him. She doesn't seem to even know he is alive. What a fucking weirdo. And claiming to be this hardcore Christian makes him even more creepy.

This already has me eager for the reunion special.

Eddie W

I hope Mikayla has gotten a restraining order on Little Russell since production wrapped.

Quack

I love how next to Brandon's name it doesn't even have a job, just Russell's nephew.

Goat3001

Little Russell is a weird dude and he just doesn't seem to get the game right now. Why admit that you put Mikayla's name on the block? He's not long for this game.

And man I loved that Christine called Coach a "temporary player" and then he just went out and got her out of the game right away. I really couldn't stand her. I didn't have a problem with her friend (Stacy?) but she came off as pretty awful at tribal council too.

And really how stupid were they to be in an alliance and not vote for the same person?

Wow. Russell's nephew is proving to be one of the creepiest Survivor contestants ever. We all gave him some benefit of the doubt last week that it might have had a lot to do with the edit, but it's becoming more clear now that it's not the edit. Does he really think that she's even remotely interested in him or would be up for it if he showed interest? Does he think he might really force himself on her against her will or something? I think Coach - and the episode title - hit the nail on the head: this guy must have some kind of demons he's battling with. And as someone else said, the Christianity angle added to it makes it even creepier.

LiquidSky

I'm half expecting next week for Little Russell to say: "I can see your dirty pillows."

marginal

I think he's so self-absorbed that he really hasn't even considered how she might feel about him. Supposedly "Christian" people like that often view the world as an assault of temptations, a test of faith designed for them personally.

Spiderbite

Well, everyone is definitely laughing at him.

dino88

What will happen when Brandon has to spend a few nights on Redemption Island with a female? Hope they have security.

I love how Coach has become the voice of reason. He's playing a great game so far.

mgbfan

Yeah, some odd ducks this season. When Coach seems like the stable one, you know you've got a good crop of crazies.

LOL at Christine. It never occurred to her that just maybe telling one of your tribe members that he's a temporary player could backfire. How moronic can you be? Think it if you want. Say it to someone you trust, if you want. But announcing it before the entire game? Why not just beg to be sent packing and be done with it?

windom

That would be great if Brandon and Mikayla end up on RI together!

I wonder if they have to keep a cameraman at the RI camp the whole time. Talk about a sucky job.

Goat3001

I wouldn't mind being on redemption island with Mikayla.

And why haven't these players learned to not obviously search for the HII the first day? Once they pick up one you doing that you're going to get voted out.

sven

Well after last weeks episode I thought people were overreacting a bit to Brandon's alleged creepiness. I thought maybe it was creative editing making him look a bit worse than he actually was. I was wrong. Dude is a nutball.

TheBang

Well, I'm glad we didn't have a recycled challenge this week. Does anyone else miss the separate reward and immunity challenges for teams? We haven't had them in, what, three seasons or so? Did they combine them to save on budget?

clckworang

I figured they did it to try to show more drama. I miss the reward challenges, too. I liked how things ebbed and flowed then.
