Lauren is really cool, I like my badass Survivor girls. Victoria is not a badass Survivor girl but I like her attempt to bring boho chic to the island so I'm here for it.

I just wish they’d call Wentworth Kelley. There is only one Kelley this season.

I have a cousin who, for his entire childhood, wouldn't eat meat that shared the name of the animal it came from. So, chicken was out, beef ok, fish out, etc.

Fish isn't meat

That doesn't make them Not Meat any more than the church having declared beavers and muskrats fish (in a further extension of religious rules-lawyering) makes it true

When you look at recipe books it's always called the 'Meat and Fish' chapter

That's because meat is fish and fish is meat.

The 2-to-3 swap is actually almost always a Good Thing, with turnouts like this being aberrations, so they should keep doing it.

Are there any links to some good Forums games? I'd be interested to see how it plays out when it's online-only.

Awful Big Brother 1 has imo the best story arc out of any of them and I'm not just saying that cause I was in it (the OP spoils the final 2 so scroll past it)

I don't think things are as bad for Lesu as they seem. If I'm David/Wentworth/Lauren then I don't see the need to worry too much because between them they've got two idols, a great strategist and one of the best playing-from-the-bottom players ever. If I'm Wardog then I got shove my head into an oven because I'm the Wardog.

I'm starting to think the reason Wentworth has spent her entire Survivor career playing from the bottom is because she's actually just bad at Survivor. She (and David) got served a complete lay-up here and they totally whiffed it.

It's also an interesting point that David and Wentworth have survived by being separate although I'm not sure I fully buy it, if only cause they've both had idols banked anyway. Sure, them as a pair might attract more attention but because they're both strong players they could play their way around that handicap.

Either way they've both shown that their last seasons weren't flukes and their inability to get on the same page is my favourite thing.

At this point, I really hope every one just sort of forgets about Devins as a target and he slips through to the end and wins

Am I right in thinking he's the first player since Lill to return to the game and not immediately get voted out? It's impressive that he's managed to slip back into things without any attention.

Something that shouldn't get lost in the shuffle is how loving terrible Kama were at hiding their reunion from Lesu to the point their plan was going to fail from idols anyway.

No it won't. They film 2 seasons together in the spring/summer and air them in the fall & winter. Season 39 and season 40 will both be filmed and completed long before season 39 actually airs. They do it this way because it's cheaper and the weather in Fuji isn't that great most of the year.

Except the reunion and winner announcement airs live at the end of the season so the S39 winner won't be announced until S40 is already filming.

Wowza, Australian 2017 Survivor has a challenge where this dude's underwear fall off and him and some other dude are wrestling over football and they actually show his rear end. The tribe come and slap his butt when he wins, not-Jeff even tells him "nice cheeks." I was just caught off guard, seems like Survivor gets the censors out when someone has too deep of a wedgie.

Kelley got an awful lot of airtime and lines at tribal. Lines that aren't even good. "They voted out Wardog for me." I think they voted out Wardog for their own game... but okay.

Makes me think Wentworth is coming back from Extinction if they're giving us this.

Wentworth was probably the most popular player going into this season, they might just be milking her for screentime while they can

When there is many platforms to sell things on, if you're just an Etsy store owner, there's gotta be some poo poo loose in your head.

She's probably a stay-at-home mum who does some Etsy stuff on the side to keep busy, ain't no need for it to be a thing dude.

Has anyone ever tracked how much screentime a winning player gets in relation to others in their seasons. Like, could the winner of a season be predicted through mere screen time, or time they are off-screen but the topic of conversation by a robot who can't understand the context of events?

Next week:

Finale:
Extinction player comes back and tells people about Lauren's idol because of freakin WEntworth's loose lips!

At that point Lauren would have to play her idol anyway so it wouldn't really matter

Any reason why they didn't split the vote 2/2/2 tonight that I'm missing? They got played hard.

They obviously knew Devins/Julia would be voting Aurora and that's who they would have done the vote split on so at that point you might as well roll with it and vote Aurora out. It's not worth the risk for Vic/Gavin/Lauren to put one of themselves into a 2-2-2 split cause they risk going home if something goes wrong.

Chris played well on his return to the game but it doesn't change that both the winner and the guy who would have won couldn't be voted out of the game at any point past the final 10. That's real bullshit.
