Predictions for tonight's boot?

I'm thinking that Mike will definitely live to fight another day, either through a challenge win or a HII play/bluff. Will is sitting pretty in the final 3 unless Mike can round up Dan and Sierra and take the game back from the Rodney 4.

I can see Sierra getting booted tonight. So far her strategy has been to go wherever the numbers go and take out anybody that might be able to beat her in the FTC. I think that her lack of pro-activeness is going to bite her in the butt this week because (based on her aforementioned strategy) she's not going to side with Mike, the person that she has a poorest chance of winning against. This also makes her a safe target for the Rodney 4 to dump their votes on without fear of an idol play. I would be surprised if Mike played his idol for anybody but himself. If he does, Tyler is out.

Logic tells me that Dan would be dumb to vote for Sierra and not see he was introuble then at which point he'd force the issue with a tie and who knows what happens? But Dan's dumb so I don't know if he'd do that. Or if he'd clue in Rodney's four fed him an obvious lie.

My intsincts tell me Rodney tells Dan and Sierra they're voting out Tyler and then Rodney, Tyler, Carolyn, and Will vote out Dan. That FEELS wrong to me because of Dan's advantage but the narrative can't necessarily make up for a Survivor being an idiot and wasting an advantage. So while my sense of narrative flow tells me Dan will wise up my brain tells me he's going to get blindsided tonight.

The problem is that Dan is dumb. No act is too stupid for Dan to do.

I'm hedging my bets and going Dan/Tyler as well. Although Tyler DOES have a chance at winning immunity, so that makes it more Dan-Heavy.

Oh yeah and Sierra really sucks, so there's that.

So I just changed my mind in the last 5 seconds. I put it 50/50 on Dan/Sierra.

*edit* Plus Caroline has an idol and that gives Tyler a slightly higher chance of survival, so yeah Dan/Sierra

Future season casting: I've been trying to stay out of the loop on the potential returnees, but apparently Greg Buis has been cut and the field of returnees, down to 32, still includes people like Jim Rice. So, basically, gently caress this show

I guarantee you Greg himself was the one who eventually declined. They've been trying to get back him on for a long time and he has been turning them down

I can't hate them as much as One World until they prove themselves incapable of trying to better their position in the game. It takes a lot of loathsome behavior to ruin a season.

Fiji had Rocky, Lisi, Alex and Dreamz. This season has Dan, Rodney, Will, Shirin, Joaquin and Max.

Slate might have a point.

Agreed. Rocky was an amusing meathead. Lisi gave us Tighty Whities. Alex had the best reaction GIF of all time.

That article's link for Rodney's sexist rant goes to a 2007 article about a Rodney on the UK version of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.
