White guys who love NWA

This was suprisingly light on Nate and Sophie for a mid-season premiere, but I was not complaining in the least.  The parallels between frat hazing and torture/interrogation was well done (except one on-the-nose comment, but that can be forgiven).  Eliot leveled up in Badass for sure.

So you delve into the world of fonts, but totally whiff on THEM PLAYING JENGA…

When the giant checks stop coming in.  So, never.

Eh, it's a competition and she was on a clock.  If I was overachieving my way to an eighth of a million, I'd take a hostage at the meat counter.

Dammit, this episode was epic.  EPIC.  In a perfect world, the radiation from all the televisions tuned in to watch would fire cancer directly into Whitney Cummings.

Ozzy would toss himself into the fire, not just his buff

My new choice for "All I want from this season"; Cochran gets voted out, him and Ozzy spend three days at Redemption bonding and burying the hatchet, Cochran beats Ozzy in a duel, and then as Ozzy walks off, Cochran says "So long, and thanks for all the fish." *mic drop*

The "Robotic Voltaggio Family Thanksgiving" on Cooking Channel was epic.  It's like no one ever told them the cameras were about to be on.  Energy levels at 1% and fading.

Schaal is a total ender for me.  Just ruins any segment she's in.

No one beats Coach out of those three.  Hell, i don't think anyone beats Coach at all if he makes it to the end unless he has to make a really scummy move near the end. 

Some of the gags were clever, nothing was too terrible, and I just tuned out most of the guest stars.  Solid Meh+

The first round of shots were cut with milk, the finals were pure blood.  And yeah, a couple of locals drained the blood from the cow right in front of the contestants before the challenge started. 

Dawn is definitely playing the social game hard, trying to outlast Jim and Whitney (well, now just Whitney), and waiting for the inevitable "We need to make a move at 7" Savaii implosion.  I could see her trying to make an emotional run at Cochran to split off, but Cochran knows which side his bread is buttered on,…

Can we have more Ben Folds please?  He is our greatest American treasure.

A Kevin Smith movie without having to have Kevin Smith involved?  Give these people all the oscars right now

BBT gives me tiredhead, although the YouTube clip of a scene with the laugh track removed was the final nail in the coffin.  Although I will download a Wil Wheaton episode, oddly enough.

Tap the brakes, this was funny, but it's not even close to "funniest thing on TV".  It's settled right back into the upper middle class of comedy.  Take a decent premise, spend 8 minutes going for the low hanging fruit, and accidentally hit a couple of golden one-liners.  It's cartoon Big Bang Theory.

Sakai is the only correct answer.  We also would have accepted Chairman Kaga out of love.

Well, worst case in that if he makes it to FTC the way he is now, he's the rat who rode coattails (probably Coach's) to the end.  Knowing his Survivor, he knows he'd have to make some big moves in order to defend himself and get jury votes.  He's not going to make it on the "Won a lot of Individual Immunities" path,…
