Right but Woo has also been flipped on by Varner twice and Tasha is wise to Varner's shady ways. Plus there's always the option that Abi flips out on Tasha or Savage in the next three days.

Her edit is crazy good. What is happening this season???

Hot take: Kass and Joe are this season's Malcolm and Denise and they're going to take the game by storm. Kass is going to win Survivor. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

Woo will pretty much never be in danger. He's never going to want to upset the apple cart. Sure he'll win challenges post-merge, but there will be bigger fish to fry. There's no way he could win in a final tribal against anyone but a completely socially terrible goat (KASS). Woo is here to stay.

So there's no way that Stephen and Savage don't end up on the same split tribe, right? They've been building this storyline pretty strongly for the past two weeks so either Savage will continue to be the hero and (dragon)slay the evil, emotionless, gamebot Fishbock or evil will prevail and Savage will once again fall…

Fair, though I still would argue that Vytas has at least a better understanding of the game than she does. My point was that being a first boot on a returnee season does not necessarily make you a bad All-Star. Maybe I should have argued instead that Tina and Fairplay were both first boots and I don't consider either…

It was definitely a cheap shot but I don't think anyone would put her in the pantheon of elite All-Star players.

Josh Wigler has been doing some stellar Survivor writing this season, and his exit interview with Vytas is no exception. It's unfortunate that Vytas seems to be taking the first boot really hard, but I hope he comes to the realization that he's not the worst All-Star for having been voted out first. Let's not forget…

The creepiness was at least partially due to the edit. They need an excuse to vote him out, after all. As far as the underwear, apparently his first choice in underwear was "too boring" and the producers made him go get more exciting underwear. Go figure.

Oops you're right! Stephen did really deserve at least a vote though.

Both of them had really terrible FTC performances. I don't think Stephen was quite prepared for JT to come after him so hard. Plus, Stephen was up against one of the most charismatic players ever, maybe only topped by Kim in One World. Seriously, people were throwing their games at JT's feet. It was unfortunate that…

It's already happened at least twice. Ian and Tom hunted a shark in Palau and Richard Hatch was actually bitten by a small one in All-Stars.

They still got in their dig at her with Spencer's "with all the crazies under the sun" quote and a pan to Shirin.

Are you implying you're sad we didn't get another MORGAN BEHIND shot like in Pearl Islands?

It reminded me of the intensity of the Wrecking Ball challenge in Philippenes, though obviously with way higher stakes.

Stephen's best chance at the moment looks like the Babe Brigade staying in charge on Ta Keo and for him to swap onto Shirin or Spencer's Tribe to give them a numbers advantage.

The question is if they are giving us a dodo edit for superfans like Max got or if this is Stephen's equivalent to Mike eating that scorpion on day one. I hope it's not the former because Survivor really needs to stop hating on its superfans.

My assumption will be that Ta Keo will no longer get an idol hidden on their part of the challenge but Bayon will. I'm guessing that there will also be a merge idol.

Welcome back, Survivor Club! I'm so excited for this season. If tonight's episode was any indication, we're in for a great ride. I am rooting so hard for Fishbach and was thrilled to be able to breathe a sigh of relief after Bayon won immunity. Things still aren't looking great for him though…

Survivor premiere tonight! I haven't been this excited for the premiere of anything in a long time. My life is super lame, but Survivor is great!
