Any death from the show is really sad but Rudy finally going is devastating. Loved that grouchy old man and I wish they put Rudy and Rich back together on the first allstar season.

If he was really suffering from Alzheimer's these past few years, his death is probably kind of a relief both to him and his loved ones. That poo poo is rough, especially in the end stages, and I would not wish it on anyone.

Truthiness!
My grandpa had dementia in various forms from strokes for the last ten years of his life. While it was excruciating and didn't seem much like him anymore, I'm not sure if I'd call his death a relief. The hardest part was probably dealing with my heartbroken grandmother (who was not at all happy to see him go, even in his then-current state).

It was a terribly over cooked smash burger with absolutely no taste that was so dry it cracked in half when I took the sandwich apart to add condiments. Somehow I lived through it. I'm ready for my Survivor run now.

The Great Twist
There’s no way the Rob/Sandra reveal is going to be as great as we hope, but I’m hoping it’s something a challenge that takes place immediately upon merge.

Have the merge be a special night thing. Do that night challenge where people are running through a maze in the dark collecting certain clue answers or just whatever the gently caress you have to collect. Have Rob and Sandra at separate collection stations surprising everyone that gets to them.

People who don’t know they’re on this season get shocked. The four or five others have a quick hello. Sandra and Rob aren’t letting them relish the moment and urging them to compete faster.

Jeff crowns the winner and gives them spices or whatever crap. Reveals Rob and Sandra officially.

Yeah, I'm kind of floored by how well they're pulling this twist off, especially considering the show's shoddy track record. The busts are incredibly goofy, but Rob and Sandra are just good tv.

What’s the point of keeping it a secret though? Even if you don’t know you have to know they have a chance at an idol when they go there.

The most offensive thing about applebee's is the misleading name. Johnny Appleseed died to bring apples all across america, our last hope for apple themed restaurants instead sells microwaved cisco and not a drop of apple in sight!

They're innocuous and entertaining. It's a twist that doesn't impact the game in an obnoxious way like EoE. It's kind of ideal, imo.

Yeah, its really minimal so its just two really entertaining people who are legends in large part because they're really entertaining just having fun. The key is basically that they seem to genuinely be enjoying themselves so its fun to watch.

It's Ghost Island with jokes and no dud weeks. The advantages mercifully expire before they can build to a poo poo show with 5/6 of the cast immune.

Up to now the IOI visitor has been picked apparently at random.
After the reveal I expect the tribe(s) will vote on who gets to go and hang out with Sandra & Rob potentially return with an advantage and information.

I’d probably absolutely love it too if I was starving but gimme a loving break about all those people saying it’s their favorite food ever like they have a gun pointed to their head for an impromptu commercial.

Now that you mention it, Olive Garden has the best food I have ever had. Whenever I go out to eat, that is the first restaurant I choose. They have the best breadsticks in any place in the world and I feel like I am in Italy whenever I go. Like they say: “When you’re here, you’re family.”

Although that just means there's more moving pieces for viewers to keep track of. And I think they dropped that little text display they introduced last season that would tell you what people had.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

The producers are leaving money on the table by not having Rob & Sandra eat food from various sponsors while doing their tribal council commentary. "Uh oh, Karishma's goose is cooked as much as this delicious KFC chicken!"

Chelsea found it and then was immediately voted out with it in her bag.

I can't remember if that means that it's out of the game entirely or if it's been rehidden. She confirmed producers took it from her after she was voted out but if memory serves idols only get rehidden if they're played.

Out of spite I'll point out that apparently-

If you want to dump somebody, you do it at the Olive Garden in Times Square. You can duck out quickly to a very well connected subway station without ruining a restaurant you actually like.

I've been too busy to listen to much RHAP recently but saw that Coach was on a week or so ago so I had it in my queue to listen to, obviously. Just listened to it and holy poo poo.

In the first minute, this guy delivers. He is quite literally the most insane person to ever grace this show and he's been snowballing the insanity since he was last on TV. Check it out if you want to jump on this bus ride to hell.
