I think Bret would have creamed Hannah in a Jury vote, though. Voting out Sunday and Bret when she did were absolutely the right moves. If she had gone for David, she'd be in a very vulnerable position, and Bret and Sunday would still be there as a strong pair.

Twenty-player seasons are extra-crowded, since the game has to get down to a reasonable number in time for the finale, and they are only allotted 13 or 14 episodes per season. In Heroes vs. Villains, for example, there were two double-boot episodes (Tyson and James in Episode 6 and Candice and Danielle in Episode 12).

Oh, Will. Wanting to be taken seriously while doing things that ensure you won't be taken seriously is such and 18-year-old thing to do. Bless.

I guess what I mean is that we don't really know that David has GAD. A lot of people, if not most people, say "anxiety" in an informal way. It's the same with "depression." Just because someone says, "I'm depressed" doesn't mean they have clinical depression, and I don't think David talking about his anxiety means he…

Okay, I walked straight into that one. Good job.

There is no evidence at all that David is mentally ill. He's a successful television writer who is insecure about his physical capabilities. Keep in mind that he's a writer. He knows how to create a narrative. I think it's absolutely possible that he's playing up his insecurities in order to gain sympathy and trust.

To me, David crying because he's not a good swimmer is not a sign of mental illness. More importantly, while David has discussed his insecurities, he has not called them mental illnesses, and I don't think we should be diagnosing him from the couch.

A fire-making tiebreaker only happens when there are four contestants remaining. In that case, one player would have the Immunity necklace, and two players would be immune after the tied vote, so only one player would even be eligible to draw rocks. Therefore, making fire is the only way to fairly resolve the tie.

You need to watch Philippines, Blood vs. Water, Cagayan, and Cambodia.

Everyone went into that vote really agitated, which makes me think that there was some stuff going on at camp that we didn't see. I don't think it had to do anything with Bret's "coming out." He had already come out in a confessional back in Episode 1. (It didn't make the broadcast; it was an online secret scene, but…

I think "bully" is a stretch. You have to admit that, if you were out there, David's constant crying would get annoying, right? It kind of reminds me how, after 30 days, the cast of Caramoan was simply over Dawn's breakdowns. The same thing happened with Lisa in Philippines. Yeah, they were kind of being jerks, but…

That's five out of 19, though. I thought most of the Fiji cast was filler. Similarly, there are a handful of people I like this season, but most of the people eliminated so far have been filler.

Based on this Craigslist ad, I think Jessica is taking her loss with good humor.

The larger casts don't just protect against quitters. They also ensure that the game schedule continues if there are medical evacuations, which have become more common. There were three evacuations last season.

I felt really bad for her, but she was in a terrible situation. If Sunday, Bret, or Will chose the black rock, Jessica would be sitting pretty in a 5-4 majority. If she flipped, she'd burn her bridges and be on the bottom of the other side. Do you remember what happened to Cochran in South Pacific when he flipped to…

I'd really be interested in hearing more about that. I want to know who to give the credit to. I'd be surprised it Sunday came up with it, because we haven't seen much of her, but Jeff Probst has been complimenting this cast as a whole for their next-level game-play. He doesn't usually do that, so I think all 10 of…

These were the best two episodes of the season by far. I've been saying all season that Millennials vs. Gen-X reminds me of Fiji. They both had promising premieres and rather ho-hum first halves. Most of the early boots in both seasons were women, too. Then, halfway through, a shocking and magnificent event occured.…

Sunday and Bret were whispering about voting for Ken. It was a pretty sneaky fake-out, I think.

That was an entertaining Tribal Council. It's too bad that Jeff Probst had to ruin all the organic drama that was happening by bringing up the theme again. Taylor is not an idiot because he's a Millennial, Jeff.

Donald Trump was a public figure before reality television, and Survivor is a game show with an emphasis on strategy and obstacle courses. You might as well propose boycotting Jeopardy! or American Ninja Warrior.
