Survivor: Ugh, Millennials Edition

[blackwind]

Russell Hantz and "Boston" Rob Mariano Join Survivor: Redemption Island

LOL. He'll be out after the first vote, but all the same, GO RUSSELL!

[tvmanismadformad]

I am NOT happy about this AT ALL! I mean come on, 3 times in 4 seasons! 3 times in 2 years! That's way too much. I don't mind Rob coming back because at least the last time he showed that he's more willing to try different strategies to win, but Russell will do the same thing he always does. I just hope the tribe is smart now that they know his game and boots him the first chance they get. They brought this redemption island thing to give the show a new feel and they have ruined it now by bringing back 2 guys who have had way too much exposure on this show. What is wrong with them?!

Jeff said in another interview I saw today that if you don't like Russell you are not a Survivor fan, which may be the stupidest thing Jeff has ever said, and the comment in the article (it was in this EW article by the way) let him know that. I hope at least Russell is out fast because if he's not, this is going to be another season ruined by this jackass.

They will be huge idiots to not vote russel out first.maybe they'll get some kind of exception so rob and Russ will stick around longer

[tvmanismadformad]

I've heard that they won't be allowed to get idols. I don't know what that means but if that means they can't get hidden immunity idols then Russell is doomed. The idols are his whole game. Without them he's got nothing. I really hope that's the case.

[tvmanismadformad]

Ok I did a little "cheating" and looked at that spoiler site. I'll just say that I'm not incredibly happy, but not furious.

[tarzapam]

how could u spoil yourself like that???

i love when they bring back prior survivors but i feel like this is happening too soon after heroes vs villains

[tvmanismadformad]

I needed to. I just needed to. And you're right. It is too soon.

[blackwind]

My thoughts on this season:



Ugh, why didn't they cast any attractive women this year?



Wait a minute...



Could it be?



HOLY SHIT.

[tvmanismadformad]

Wait until you read her bio. Total religious fanatic who believes that because a "spritual being" is always with her she will never be alone in the game.

I will also say that I am a big Survivor fan. Listen to Rob Has a Podcast and Dom and Colin every week big.

[blackwind]

Yep, and believes God has actually spoken to her on multiple occasions (audibly, man to man, in the flesh), has done extensive research into dragons and is certain they exist in the real world (just like God, dontcha know), and signed up for the show solely to get the word out that the Bible needs translating into more languages. I fucking love her. But she hasn't had a chance to wave her freak flag yet, and she damn well better get it, because this is a classic character in the making.

Either way, Parv and Monica just got effortlessly dethroned as sexiest of all-time by an ugly girl. Embarrassing.

*begins praying for a Michelle, Ken, and Jessica final three*

Do you hear me, God? We MUST get the word out about the Bible's dire lack of translations so the good people of Click-Clack, Africa can hear The Word!

(Ba-ba-ba-bird bird bird...)

[tvmanismadformad]

I'm not even sure how to respond to all that.

[blackwind]

Haha, I felt the same way at first as I kept reading nutty quote after nutty quote, but ultimately, I did the right thing and embraced the crazy. This kind of headcase only comes along once or twice in a lifetime, so it's our patriotic duty, or something, to enjoy it.

BREAKING: Girl's got a Jesus fish tattoo on her hip as well.

After tonight, I can now also say I like Jay quite a bit.

[tvmanismadformad]

I like Jay too, but I know everyone is going to hate him for the Michaela thing. Also, she is now the 4th coloured woman to go home this season, and the 5th woman in total out of 6 boots. The podcasts this week are going to be full of colour bias this week.

She was funny, but Jesus H. Christ (he's so relevant now in this thread!), what an insufferable, nasty woman. Not only did she get exactly what she deserved, Jay manned up and took credit at the risk of possible manslaughter. Solid.

I look forward to this becoming the scandal of the week once the mainstream media is done with Trump. Absolutely deplorable!

[tvmanismadformad]

Yup. I can't remember much about the episode though. Have been too caught up with this election.
