Starts tonight!!!!!

Very excited!

I love when Jeff gets hung up on his themes (white collar, blue collar, no collar or brains, brawn, beauty!) and crams everyone into the box he wants them to fit. 

I expect lots "hard work" from the Gen Xers and lots of complaining about how much the Millenials miss texting, tweeting and the Facebook.

Apparently everyone gets evacuated tonight, based on the preview. A Survivor first.

Hi, Ken.

Ken, I'm a little hungry. Would you and Probst make me a sandwich?

Seriously.

Adam or Ken hopefully for the win.  Both seem like genuine good guys.  Paul and the lawyer with the red hair for the quick loss.  Especially Paul.  As annoying as David is, I detest bullies.  Paul comes across like the pieces of sh*t we had to deal with in high school.  That bit*h looks 10 years older then his supposed age of 52.  I thought karma was going to taking him out last night.

It was hard to watch that tribal council last night. That millennial tribe is SO stupid! Why would you allow a couple to stick together like that? Hannah (the curly-haired girl who hemmed and hawed about voting) was so idiotic. Why would she vote off one of the people who would have taken her furthest in the game.

If you found out you were going to be on survivor, would you get on Hulu and binge watch the entire series to learn from the mistakes of others? 

Oy!

That tribal left me wishing we could vote off an entire tribe.

Ken equals hot.

Hot dam!!  I was thinking David would use his idol to save CeeCee.  Didn't have to.  Now that lard ass Brett can be the next to go.  I didn't like him laughing about Ken when he was describing the art of language.  Another bully.

That post-tribal spat between Adam, Zeke, and Hannah was painful to watch, as Hannah seems pretty clueless about how to interact with others if she wants to make any connections that will take her somewhere in the game.

Ken has emerged as my early favorite, and not just because of his face. He seems like a level headed guy who's taking the game very seriously, and I'm glad that the women came to their senses at tribal and decided to get rid of the insufferable Paul.

^ Agree.

There is something very wrong with Hannah.  She seems completely unfamiliar with the game and almost acts like she wants to be voted off.  She'd be one to keep around strategically to the end as someone who could not possibly win.  Like Lill or Twila.

Bye bye, Figgy.  So glad to see your smug figtail ass go home.

Tribal Council was INCREDIBLE last night!  I screamed and applauded.  It was so satisfying.

Did anyone else happen to watch Australian Survivor (season 3 just finished)?  It's virtually identical to the American version.  This season was one of the most satisfying and compelling seasons I've seen in a very long time.

And I almost forgot...this summer, I noticed Spencer Bledsoe (Brain/Brawn/Beauty and Second Chance) sitting near me on the lawn at a classical concert in Millennium Park in Chicago.  I was dying to run up to him and ask him a thousand questions, but I just silently geeked out and didn't intrude on what appeared to be a date.

NOOOO, Michaela!  But, YESSSSS to the best blindside ever!

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 11/2/16 at 9:55pm

That was DEVASTATING.  Michaela was my favorite.  Her big mistake was letting on how smart she was and assuming she was playing with reasonable and logical people.  Voting her out at this point was MORONIC.  They just removed their actual reasonable strategy PRE-merge.  And true to form, Hannah was clueless.

Ok, that's my new favorite blindside/elimination EVER. 

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 11/3/16 at 3:22pm

I think that's the first time Probst stopped in the middle of a vote tally.  Michaela's death-stare was epic.  My favorite blindsides are reserved for those who I'm happy to see go.  That was not the case for me with this one, however.  Of course, it was all greatly enhanced by editing considering there were several conversations we never saw that got everyone but Michaela and Hannah on the same page.  I hope they bring Michaela back for another season.  That girl is a star.

I guess i'm kind of confused as to why people like her, she just always seemed like a total bitch to me.

[Mister Matt]

Personally, I saw her as a confident, intelligent and tough woman who genuinely liked her tribe, but was seriously frustrated by their lack of foresight and gameplay.  I think she was brutally honest to a fault, but also accurate.  She definitely needs some classes in tact administration (and perhaps anger management), but I did see a softer side to her that shed some light into her character and unflappable determination that I found refreshing and admirable.  When she was strategizing with her alliance using the shells and for the majority of tribal, I think she was being honest and genuine.  It's the other times that she needs to learn how to moderate, but I never felt like she was being malicious or cruel just for the sake of hurting others.  Honestly, if I'd been thrown into a tribe like those Millennials, I probably would have suffered the same fate.
