Remember that preview clip that CBS yanked because of spoilers?

It’s been edited and it’s back up. You can no longer see who’s on the jury — and Monica’s reaction shot has been removed.

[Uncle Chip]

If Monica wins that challenge, then those testosterone units out there should hang their heads in shame.

Ah, sort of like when Mark did some creative editing on the F4 to delete Gervase in the first season.

[Uncle Chip]

Well did they hold a rock draw seminar this week. Everyone seemed to be up to speed on it and prepared for it.

With the cameraman pointing at the idol location is anyone surprised that Tyson found it?? That was a bold move on his part not to play it. Now Ciera is on the outs and Tyson has her idol.

She votes with them last week and shared the clue to the idol and then changes sides at TC. What was she thinking or was she???

Well either way she had 4th place sewed up and she still does.

Will they shut down RI and return a player to the game while they still have a chance to win or wait until it’s 3 to 1.

Tina’s son died in a car accident today.

Prayers.

What the heck! Mark couldn’t be mor obvious he wanted to keep Monica and Tyson. Sure, show Tyson where the idol was hidden. I’m surprised he didn’t let him use the thing during the rock draw. Since when to the potential bootees not vote? Mark Obama changing the rules whenever it pleases him.

Tyson was a real prick asking for a hug from Katie and telling her that’s her chair. I’d have had a few choice words for him. Rat and snake, Tyson. Rat and snake. All the boo-hooing over his game play was total hogwash. Ha, he doesn’t know what “rustle” means. Here’s to Katie voting against a Tyson win. Of course, Tina will probably tell Katie to vote for him because he’s such a good player.

At least Ciera finally answered that wake up call that’s been ringing for weeks. Too late, though. Too bad Laura hasn’t picked up hers. Laura might as well have given the clue to Tyson for all the good it did. Sure, Ciera, you’re #4 so read the clue to #3, #2 and #1. And then she flips, assuring her place on the totem pole. Of course, Mark’s camera dude showed Tyson where to find the idol. Can we all say, “FIXED!”

[Lee'sGhost]

Tyson creeps me out more than ever. “I gotta win so as to justify letting my (pretend) girlfriend go when I could have saved her. Boo hoo...”

What a metrosexual. The guy has a “I’m better than you and the world owes me” attitude. Totally a mindless Obamatron.

Not only did they show him where it was located, the put it in a place none of the women would/could likely get to to find it.

I can’t hate on Ciera. It’s not her fault that she’s not that bright.

I want Laura to make a comeback because she is smokin’ hot in my book. Confident heterosexual men want hot (conservative) babes to win. Rules is rules.

Katie has lost so much weight she’s almost reached the state hotness...but she’s not conservative nor very bright.

Rock on, Survivors! All pun intended.

Game play

Much as I agree with you about Tyson creeping people out he is playing the game hard.

As Hayden said - if Tyson gets to final three he wins.

I think this is the first season where the possible winner has been pointed out to the little clutch of final 4 & 5 folks so many times.

Gervase trying to jump in and defend himself? Jury was rolling on that one. I think the guys on the jury will respect Tyson’s game play and vote for him in the end. The question of who gets the million will come down to the females on the jury.

[Uncle Chip]

Thank You Caleb —

Monica explaining why she is solid with Tyson and Gervase

[bgill]

Yes, the F3 and F4 have been spotlighted time and time again, yet no one has tried to boot them until it’s too late. I don’t particularly care for Monica but even less for Tyson and Gervase. From the video, maybe Caleb, the moms and daughters will give her their votes unless the island gods smile upon Hayden. If Hayden makes it through, it won’t be enough.

[Lee'sGhost]

I agree that he is playing hard, but given his competition on the whole, it doesn’t take much.

And I agree about Gervase. He wants desperately to be seen as Tyson’s equal, but nobody’s buying it. He’s that group’s weak link...or should be.

[PeteB570]

Hayden needs to hit Gervase up again...

“Gervase, didn’t you see the jury when you made your comment? They laughed. You’re not going to win if you go to the final three with him.”

[Uncle Chip]

I don’t think that there is much love lost by the jury and jury to be for Tyson-Gervase-Monica — but that’s irrelevant because the jury has to vote for one of those three anyway whether they like it or them or not.

That’s why I think those 3 will and are sticking together. If Laura, or Cerina or Hayden were to make it into F3 they would likely win.

BTW in the Aftershow Caleb says:

“Hi Colton, I can’t wait for us to get married in October and have a lot of babies”.

Neither can I — please send a lot of pictures from the delivery room.

[kjam22]

I think Laura can win this thing. She can win competitions and she can get the votes.

[Uncle Chip]

She certainly could and would get a lot of jury votes but to get to F3 she would have to win every single challenge without fail from here on in. That’s something she is capable of.

[bgill]

They’d have to leave Alabama to get legally hitched. I did a search for the “wedding” but didn’t find anything. October has come and gone so maybe a few adopted children will have a chance at both a female mommy and male daddy. Can you imagine Colton coming within a mile of a poopy diaper, hahaha!

[Lee'sGhost]

Yup. That’s what caught my attention.

[Lee'sGhost]

EEeeeeewwwwwwwwww........
