I don't know, the challenges are rarely that skewed towards strength — there's often a balance aspect as well, and the puzzle aspect at the end is usually an equalizer. Plus, as someone wise once said, basing eliminations on strength in challenges is the death of fun.

Agreed — the tipoff was Malcolm saying "Once we realized it was a mother and baby goat". as if that wasn't abundantly clear from the outset.

They're still two bankruptcies away from having to take a Russian mafia bailout, so I'm not worried quite yet….

I'm going to pretend I knew that, and that the reason for asking was to debut my lovingly crafted pun.

Would make no less sense than Jonathan Banks on Saul, who is noticeably older now but still………..ahh, I can't keep this up. It does distract me, on behalf of future viewers attempting to watch the saga chronologically.

I didn't understand why Sandra voted for Aubry, especially given the rest of the tribe unanimously voted for Tony. Was she so supremely confident despite (supposedly) being on the chopping block that she could use her vote expressly to rattle someone's cage? I mean, I know she's good, but that would be quite the…

There was a cut as Trebek transitioned from the Sam interview to the Kirstin interview. So either Kirstin has him flustered or he'd just called Sam a dorkus malorkus.

Interesting, as I have gotten the opposite impression. Brooke, despite her composed demeanor, has often seemed at a loss to interpret the challenges cohesively, while Shirley, although seeming frantic, is quick to determine her course of action and often relates her decisions on the show to her overall approach as a…

Gotta throw Ladyhawke into the mix. Maybe not as cinematically treasured as some of the others mentioned, but romantic as all get out.

Blais had a bit too much truth serum, and so had to kick things off by talking about his favorite subject — relating other contestants' experiences to his, as if that's why everyone was there. A bit like answering a question about national security by talking about one's electoral college vote totals…but that's where…

Reminded of the log-rolling over "The Art of Fielding", when the entire lit publishing industry disappeared up its own sphincter…

I could be wrong, but I think it might be about him being a try-hard suck-up monster.
