I've always wondered why players don't pay attention to such things. Perhaps they do pay attention, but the producers just cut those shots so that the fourth wall is not broken. Also, on some of the hidden immunity idol searches, it's hard to tell how things are taking place in time. Did Hayden actually walk past

Ditto. Especially after the camera panned out and we saw that Caleb's stack was on the major lean. Had he just stopped with a minute to go, Tina probably would have freaked out as Jeff said something like, "Caleb VERY confident that his stack will hold up" and then she would have overdone it. While we're on the

Are those two crazy kids still together?

I was OK with it. You do get some weird kind of tension by knowing it goes to that point without knowing how it gets there. No different than a movie like 'Captain Phillips.' I knew how it would end, but that didn't make the film any less engaging. Then again, had CBS not foreshadowed the rocks, my brain probably

Correct on all counts.

Episode thoughts: Jeff basically telling Katie, "Yeah, all this political stuff? That's why these people are a billion times better at the game than you are, you floater you." It was harsh but also completely on the money—Hayden and Katie were in the exact same place, with Hayden actually in danger of going home,

A lot of youngsters? Were they ever popular enough to be listened to by a large number of people having sex? I thought The Stone Roses were that one band that that one really annoying person who thought they were better than you listened to.

Does anybody actually think this movie is going to work?

Yes, time will be an ally for 'Dads. Wait, what?

Why are we worrying about Amazon when there's probably some psycho with engineering degree coming up with an armed drone in his basement?

I adore some of my local newscasters.

It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times.

I had literally never heard of the Wii U until I read this article.

I watched 'Joy Ride' last night on a whim.

Basically a long commercial for her new album.

I'm guessing Ciera probably assumes that Hadyen/Caleb have no intention of taking her to the final three when they could easily (in this alternate universe) take Katie, who has just floated along while everybody was focusing on bigger targets.

We really don't have any evidence that she is more disliked than anybody else. There were a few episodes focusing on her paranoia, but on the whole, I'm guessing that people are fine with her. The viewer dislikes her, but that's completely different than how she was viewed on the island day in and day out. The real

While you're spot-on with the logic that Monica probably would have used, if you're just assessing threats, Tyson and Gervase are people who absolutely have to go before you reach the end game. What good is a final four if you're not going to get the jury votes (she's not) over the other three people in the alliance?

If Hayden/Caleb/Katie are above pettiness and vote for who they think played the best game, then yes, she can. Unfortunately, it's reality TV, and pettiness generally reigns because everybody thinks that they're winning until they suddenly aren't.

I think he brings it up solely to make a point about her judgment and decision-making skills. It's misguided, though, because all teenagers are idiots, not just the pregnant ones. If I was being judged today based on the way I acted as a teenager, that would suck.
