I got through the show today. And yeah, I'm going to include spoilers. I think it's better to not put spoilers on the main BL thread, but this is about the show, so it's easy to avoid or delete notifications for this thread if someone hasn't watched yet. I do it all the time.
All right, that final torch stunt was the most ridiculous face-off challenge ever. Stand there with a weird thing on your head and don't move? I don't doubt that it was hard, but for TV, it LOOKED ridiculous!!!
I am glad to see Melissa go, but she did get a little less abrasive the past few weeks. I am still not sure what the deal is with her weight or if "she threw the weigh in" like Jillian said. Weird that she gained a pound this week, but I guess you never know.
Wow, Koli sure was taking things hard this week. Seems like he's got some negative internal dialogue to work through (and which of us doesn't, I suppose?).
I thought the Duathlon challenge was a pretty crazy challenge as well. It's one of those where the strong people are at the biggest disadvantage because people take them out first, so you've got two older men with bad knees duking it out for immunity. I actually prefer that to giving immunity to the strongest players. These are the guys who need it most. And Darrell really could have used it this week, too.
As for whether it would be better for black or orange's senior member to go home (in two freaking weeks!), either way. They both seem nice enough, both need to be there etc. Silly cliffhanger.
Who knew that Extra Sugarfree gum was better than blue pudding or chocolate cake? That pudding did look blue, didn't it? The thing that would have tempted me was the soft serve machine, though.
Oh yeah, I could have some gum instead. Nevermind.
There really were surprisingly few products this time - unless I'm forgetting one...
me too! I'm 95% sure we'll have at least a 2 hour delay tomorrow so might let dd stay up too (she's in 6th grade). 
Maybe Lance and Melissa go home . . .
I would seriously burn some calories doing a happy dance! 
I don't think the other half of that team was the brains of the outfit so may not last too long -- unless they have a "sea change" like Miggy. Interesting show!
