Colton is working himself to be one of the biggest reality gimmicks in the history of TV as the biggest power bottom in the world.
It makes sense though, as most of the ppl who are on this show were recruited by agents (like Big Brother) than auditions.

Damn, did I miss the premier? I only remembered to add this to my DVR a few days ago and for some reason I thought tonight was the first episode.

I'm rooting for Monica from here on out...
But they're going to have to mix tribes soon, I don't see the women beating the men much at all.
In the preview for next week, Colton with a shocker...

I was really hoping they would vote out Kat the ****, but I knew it wouldn't happen. Did anyone else notice the bulge in Monica's bikini bottom? Maybe Colton and Monica should switch tribes.
Chelsea made a really dumb move tonight when she said that she would be in a different alliance if they started over today.
My early pick to win: Kim (aka Eyebrows)

I think Chelsea might be the hottest chick ever on this show. Of course she's in "medical sales"
Note: I say MIGHT because recentness effect is probably forcing me to say that.

Chelsea & Kim are both hot. Kim's eyes offset the brows, though she could use a waxing.
The women are completely inept and hopeless unless they get their shit together now.

This season is already a mess.
The "you have to give it away" idol idea will hopefully be scrapped... when they hide the idols so they are discovered within a day, how are you supposed to decide who to give it to. The sole purpose now seems to be to create chaos and in the case of the men's idol - hide it where it can be found easily to increase the chances of the social outcast getting it (as the opposing tribe would likely give it to him)
Hopefully the conditions do turn miserable as the pick five people on day 1 alliance strategy needs to be broken up and just introducing randomness (via immunity idols) is a pretty weak way to do this. They could do a bunch of things - trade players between tribes, completely mix up tribes somewhere along the way, merge early and then split the tribes a 2nd time, have the tribes pick people to switch and instead twist it and have them form a 3rd tribe (maybe at 15, so the 5 person alliances would then be forced to potentially vote off one of their own if they lose)
I think it's also great that Survivor is not casting people to feed stereotypes.

Can't believe the women stuck to their alliance even when half the women said they'd have chosen their alliance differently now. It's only Day 5! They should have dumped the alliance and started over. No one would have held it against them by the end of the game. Getting rid of one of the strongest women will only hurt them more.

Agree, she's smoking hot. I hope she does well this season.
Being an Asian man myself, I also appreciate Christina. Nice to see a full figured Asian woman.
Hate Colton. I don't mind gay contestants, but I can't stand obnoxious sissy boys like him.
The woman team is a train wreck right now. I don't think Sabrina really has control of these chicks, especially with Alicia running her mouth. Nina had no chance of making it out of Tribal once she started bragging about her life experience and 13 years as a Cop.

I'm a gay guy and find Colton to be insufferable. I cannot stand guys like him.

Kat reminds me of Lori Petty around A League of Their Own time. I missed last week too, so had to jump in last night.

I'm sure the producers will switch up tribes if this keeps happening w/ the women's tribe.

Sadly, I think it's more likely than not that Colton acts perfectly normal in real life ... and that he's playing things up to be a reality tv "character" (with the producers fully egging him on).
The producers are doing everything in their power to give the women the advantage in these challenges. They did this exact challenge in the last "battle of the sexes" season ... but the women kicked ass, mainly because they're just physically smaller. Though Lief turned out to be huge (so to speak ). He gave the guys such a huge lead. And in this challenge, it became progressively easier as more of the team finished.
Even though I can't stand Colton, I like the idea of a guy's "misfit" alliance. It seems smart that they realize the 4 young guys are seeing themselves on top ... but the misfits have the 5 to 4 numbers advantage. Interestingly, there was a similar male alliance in the last "battle of the sexes" season. Normally, the big strong guys can make the case that they're too valuable pre-merge to vote off. But if all the challenges are designed to neutralize size/strength/speed advantages, these types of guys are completely expendable.

Another thing, any and every person that is ever on a reality show and is remotely from Alabama always gets a small update in the second page of The Birmingham News the day after any show airs (page 2A no doubt...hey fuck education and poverty!). I find it interesting that Colton lives in Monroeville, Alabama yet has not garnered a mention in the last two weeks. They usually post the update and have before with other gay reality show people but I am assuming Colton is even too gay for that.

I couldn't believe the girls were getting smoked in the balance challenge last night but then my wife said that their tits were probably getting in the way. Sure enough one of the girls said the boobs made the challenge hard and confirmed what my wife said. Maybe they should have gone ass to ass.
