I thought Free Agents has been canceled. Glad to see it's back.

I don't remember the RI competitions being so boring in the early parts of last season...seems like more weak/unintelligent players this go round.

Man between Coach and Brandon, that's a whole lotta crazy.

Hopefully Mikayla can knock Christine out at least.

Coach should have sat his own self out of the sling shot portion since he missed just as much as Mikyla. Coach is still a douche.

Re: Survivor: South Pacific -- "Free Agent" -- 10/19/11

Brandon is one of those rare people (like the guy who was abusive to his wife on the Amazing Race and later on Fear Factor) that makes me feel things really personally, despite just watching from my couch. I can't stand him and I actually feel it in my gut when I see him or hear him speak. Combine that with Coach being around this season and it's difficult for me to not look to the other tribe to win challenges and for the winner to come from that side too.

Despite what anyone thinks of the challenges, I still feel like the man vs. man aspect has always been the thing I looked most closely at in deciding, in large part, who I wanted to win these shows. Winning 4 straight times against any challenger is more impressive than anything anyone else has done, so it's difficult to not see someone go on a run like this (or last season) and not think they "deserve" back in the game. That said, I like Mikayla and hope she wins and gets some kind of revenge against the idiots that got rid of her.

I never thought much of Elyse, but she was this season's eye-candy for me, so I'm sad to see her gone for that reason only.

Brandon: "This next challenge is absolutely... detrimental to the way this game turns out."

I guess he meant "critical" or something like that.

Yeah I know what you mean this group seems dumber then the people last season who's strategy insisted on following the orders of Rob and playing for him to win.

Rob's not on this season. I know that disappoints you, but really, you just have to let it go.

Re: Survivor: South Pacific -- "Free Agent" -- 10/19/11

I'm hoping the 2nd half of the season (post-merge) is more interesting because this season so far is pretty boring. Yeah, hate Brandon a lot as a contestant.

Don't try to find logic in Brandon's thought process. That path leads only to madness...

Does anyone else find it retarded that CBS doesn't cut out most of the cursing (ie. calling someone a stupid bitch, ass and damn are said constantly, other words) and yet they edit a chick giving a middle finger to someone and then edit it again when they talk about it.

I mean, seriously...other than a small child, who doesn't know what the middle finger means? And they let all these other things slide but a middle finger is somehow deemed more offensive. I don't get it.

And fuck Brandon. Seriously. I would have a hard time not punching that fucker in the face if I ever saw him in person and I'm not a violent guy. His personal life has to really be in the shitter now after being on this show and showing the world what a asswipe he is. Who knew someone could actually make the Hantz name worse.

I hope he makes it to the family visit and we meet his barely-legal white-trash wife. She should be good for a few cringing moments.

It's not really a CBS thing. I'm sure they'd prefer not having to hassle with blurring out a middle finger or the many other things that are blurred. They show what they're allowed to show. But yes, I think it's silly, too, many of the things not allowed to be seen or heard on network TV.

Brandon just looks crazier and crazier as this thing goes. Maybe he'll chill out a little bit now that his temptation won't be at the camp all the time.

Ozzy is really not a very smart guy. I can't believe how dumb he was. Maybe you're pissed about your snuggle buddy getting voted out, but you can't be such a whiner about it. And you definitely shouldn't reveal that you've got the hidden immunity idol!

They also blurred Mikayla's hoo-ha when she accidently flashed Albert a couple of weeks ago. I'd rather have seen that than an extended middle finger.

That was already available on the 'net before the season started.

I'm really tired of Benjamin. Why did they bring him back?

I would take part in the mocking of Brandon but if someone can read to him what's on a message board he may take vengeance if he ever acquires the financial resources.

Good lord she has some talented make-up and air-brush people.

She is the very definition of a butterface, yet she looks damn good in her pics.

As long as you are a male, I think you'll be fine.
