Thank god Sugar is gone. I can't stand her. So useless and pathetic. What the hell were the producers thinking?

That vote gives me even more confidence that this will be the best season ever. Get rid of the driftwood and Game On.

The teaser for next week was very unnerving...

Oh great....a spoiler. Thanks CP. Didn't we just go through this in the Lost thread?????? :)

I'm always annoyed when we see all the scheming for a vote and then it ends up just going back to what we all expected anyway. WTF. Sugar was dead weight, but those who don't get rid of Cirie are doomed to be knocked off by her schemes.

I'm sure that they talk about all possibilities every time there is a vote, and when the producers want more tension they include those conversations.

There are a lot of schemers out there this time around. Sugar wasn't only dead weight, she was also a drag to be around. At this VERY early point it's crazy to think about keeping her around and risk losing both morale and challenges.

I have a theory that seems to work out so far: During voting, they will show certain votes before they are tallied. The person who will be voted out that night always gets their vote shown during the process

(as a past example, in Australia, the night Jerri was to be voted out, they showed who Jerri had voted for as she was writing it down).

This helps us to guess who's really going. :D

That's not always true. The only votes they show before they are counted are ones that are not in question based on the strategy talking we've been shown through the episode. That's the only common thread through every tribal. If they've set up any doubt about how someone will vote, they won't show it. That USUALLY corresponds to them showing the person being voted out writing their vote, because it's usually very obvious who the person being voted out is going to vote for. But it's not a universal rule. The only universal rule is that they only show votes that don't give us any new information about which way the tally is going to fall before the votes are read.

True. I guess I'm just tired of the same old editing trick. It would be nice if they would have "deleted scenes" or something to see how it was that things went back to voting off Sugar. Most likely it was to get rid of the weakest in challenges.

I wonder how long Rupert will be able to function on that broken toe?

If Rupert's toe is his undoing I'll be very sad.

Nooooooo!!!


Dead I tell you, Dead. The hero tribe is dead to me. May you all get sand rot in an uncomfortable part of your body.

Farewell my Island Goddess. You were taken from us all too soon.


Now, as for Boston Rob.....

Exactly how did all that play out. The camera crew stands by as they guy face plants into the jungle? Wait for Jerri to find him, shake him a time or two and then sit there filming while she runs off for help? I have to think that some of that footage was re-staged later for dramatic effect.

It looked like Rob took his shoes off and laid himself down. The faceplant POV was clearly silly. I doubt that medical was more than a couple of seconds away.

Yeah... the Heroes team leaves a lot to be desired at this point. It's going to be an interesting season.
