Probst/Headless Body of Mariano for President

"I'm not here to make support programs."

That challenge was awesome. And Spencer would probably have painted a giant target on his chest from these two individual immunity performances if Joe hadn't won both of them.

With the lingo of 2042 replacing Probst's well-worn catchphrases.

To me, Ciera's situation is of her own design. Seriously, I have no idea why she keeps making these complaints about tribal council trying to nudge people into admitting they're playing the game and to play it better, particularly since she doesn't frame it as a pitch to work with her. She comes from a place of

Seriously, THIRTY-ONE freaking seasons, and this show can still pull off episodes like THAT one.

Kudos to the editing team this week. As a guy on Team Fishbach, I spent the entire episode preparing for him to get bounced. In fact, they were hitting on the "Stephen is Finished" narrative so hard throughout the episode (even before the immunity challenge) that I probably should have realized it wasn't what would

I agree. Unless she can find a way to turn the tables, this bought her one more week, tops. Perhaps the mythical all-girl alliance is her ticket? I have no idea.

I don't know if this broke the record for fingers given, but did this break the record for the most votes any person has received in a single tribal council? I think Wentworth got nine. I actually got exhausted waiting for Probst to get to the first non-Wentworth vote. It was like a freaking clown car of votes.

I found it hilarious that the "previously on" tried to characterize the Kelley/Ciera/Abi-Maria alliance as having been 100% on-board with Kass, ignoring that neither Kelley nor Ciera even voted with her (hell, they didn't even vote with each other!).

Savage's response to that final remark was incredible. So was his flipping off the immunity challenge after he lost. He can find absolutely no fault in his own gameplay. It had to be the challenge that fucked it up for him.

What's even more painful is that this was practically the only time where the bottom alliance wouldn't have had the votes to overcome a vote split anyway. So the Bayons would have lost absolutely nothing by splitting the vote.

I recently began a rewatch of the first season, since I found the old DVDs in the attic, so I found it amusing when they brought up the "losing to a guy who can't swim" moment.

The look on the faces of the Bayon members were the faces of people who realized they should have known better.

Yeah, I think it's less a matter of this group repopulating on their own and more about finding other pockets of humanity.

I didn't realize they were letting Reddit write couch gags.

I really wanted to hear Carol's reply to Phil's proposal, because I get the feeling she would have really knocked him down a peg, in her own Carol-esque way.

I wonder why Carol didn't include "repopulate the Earth" or "human race doesn't die out" on her list of Pros for having a baby. I feel like there's an interesting conflict you could mine (for comedy and drama, much like they do with the spoiled gas) in having Carol argue that it's selfish to live for the moment at the

It's as if every episode now has to have Phil doing something gross with food. And yet, I find all those sequences strangely appetizing. I mean, yeah, it was gross, but I kinda want a waffle now.

Melissa is super pretty, but I think that's literally the only function she serves, such as when Carol comes to approach her about having a baby and she's literally just splayed out on a rug like Cleopatra or something.
