I think her stoic ice queen nature doesn't really work for Survivor but after seeing her combativeness on RI I think she would be perfect for Big Brother. Although someone who is a DR might not fit in with all La based bartenders and unemployed Bachelor and Bad Girls Club rejects the cast of that is littered with the

From what I remember that season Penner basically handed the game over to Yul at f9 because he wanted "good people" to win over the young kids alliance. If Penner was a woman he would have gotten an emotional edit most of his seasons akin to Sugar and Lisa Whelchel but instead cause of Probsts mancrush he gets mostly

I think Monica is getting the perfect edit this episode if she actually did win. The Brademption this episode with everyone cheering for him is the kind of the thing they would need to do if she is the actual winner since they can't make the winners family 100% hateable. Right now outside of Tyson,Tina and Vytas she

I thought you had to  missile Syrians or put your countries homosexuals in jail to win a Nobel Prize .WTF

He very well might have spent hours looking for it .It's only a 40-42 minute show each week so if no one finds an idol or  them trying to find it is not relevant to the storyline it won't make the tv show.

Although not a fluke winner I would think Heidik would do bad in most recent seasons since the casting skews younger now and to win you need a strong social game and he didn't even make an attempt to learn certain people's names at the merge.

I have thankfully avoided any spoilers but btwn them showing the 5 vets alliance 2 episodes ago and the almost non existent airtime of Laura's and Kat and the other tribes almost certain minority merge status  I think it would be a safe bet to assume 1 of the core 5 vets will win and outside of Tina the other 4  in

As much as I like RI this season its usefulness is almost a curse.Probst now will be enabled to try out more bad twists when really the only reason RI works this season is because of the loved ones element to the game. Otherwise it's still a stupid twist that takes away 1 of the 3 elements of the game.

It's much easier to be a good sport about losing a game with a million dollar prize when you have several million in the bank already.

ZING

I think her winning is not entirely unrealistic. Experience or not Bob Little looks more like a mayors son then a mayor.

The previous 2 times their was a RI once it got down to 11 people in the game + those on RI the 2 people on RI competed to come back in and the winner merged with the other eleven for a 12 person merge. Post merge played like this season with 3 people competing in RI with the 3rd place elimmed except the final RI

The returnees sent Candice to RI possibly the most athletic woman in the game it stands to reason they are not neccesarily thinking about challenge strength with their votes . That said if they  follow the format of Boston Rob/Sophie redemption seasons there would be 3 more tribal councils before someone

Ever heard of Josie And The Pussycats. Female bands existed before Haim.

I think she is a bit unlucky since she was dealt pretty bad hands both times. Even if she misplayed  to Rob her first time he is a smart enough guy to realize taking her and the other older lady out is smart because the young recruits can be easily controlled. And her 2nd time she was just on the wrong numbers of a

Ciera looks like she is 80 or 90 pounds and her mom might be the most athletic older woman in Survivor history. I would have thought it was weird if that match up went the other way.

Crystal was a short distance track runner ie running 100 meters. In retrospect it makes sense that someone in a short distance running is not necessarily a good fit for survivor challenges which are long and grueling. At the very least she gave her best effort . I don't think her game was bad strategically since she

Abi tore her ACL last year in the game and she was never pulled so I think only a much worse injury would require getting pulled.

Now Probst just needs to rip himself for bringing back Phillip and Brandon last season.

It probably formed before they got out there which is why everyone except Aras who was joke voting either targetted Candice or Laura M in the right a name down twist on day.On the surface if the returnees were 10 strangers  I doubt Candice and Laura M  who are really strong challenge competitors would be who everyone
