Tonight's show was so good!! I really want to see either sugar or matty win

 

[jmskinner]

This was a great episode. I loved how Bob acted like he was going to give the necklace and then didn't. I jumped out of my chair when Sugar gave Matty her Immunity necklace.

I'm still a big Bob fan, but would be so happy if the final three were Sugar, Matty and Bob.

I wasn't really paying attention, but Crystal didn't say anything nasty at the end there did she?

No. She blew them a kiss and the final comments she just said she had no idea that Sugar turned on her.


I did not like Sugar in the beginning, but I like her now.

Geez! Talk about childish. I just watched the latest Ponderosa videos. The other 4 jury members(losers) are giving Crystal the silent treatment. I am not at all surprised that Corinne and Randy would act that way. But, Marcus and Charlie? I thought they were more mature than that.

 

[momrek06]

Anyone notice that Randy was the only jury member who didn't look happy?

What was UP with the MOHAWK????

It would be hilarious if Susie wins.

Who?

I loved seeing those gorilla's....wow, pretty amazing. Absolutely a great season for sure!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BuzznBelle'smom]

I think Susie has an excellent chance of being in the final three/two. Who wouldn't want to be standing next to her?

That said, I think Bob or Sugar will win. I think either one can get the jury votes, for a well-played game. I'm hoping the jury can see how they under-estimated Sugar, they thought she was too stupid to have the hidden idol, and not only did she have it, she played it real well. And Bob, well--who doesn't love Bob? Go geeks!

I also hope the jury can see how well Sugar played. She was brilliant last night. I'm sure Corrinne will come up with something to attack her with. I never could find out why she hated Sugar so much, other than that she's a snob and hates anyone without a DEGREE .

 

[Jennifer S]

I like Sugar, Bob and matty. I hope they are the final three. I'd be fine if any of them win. This has been a really ho-hum season. I really didn't root for any of them. The only ones I hated were Randy and Corrine so glad they are already out.

 

[Metro West]

What was UP with the MOHAWK????

I was wondering the same thing. I wonder who talked him into doing that?

 

[legalsea]

Great episode! We were guessing who was going until the very end.

I liked how Bob managed to change his agreement with Kenny: originally, Kenny was demanding that Bob give him the immunity necklace IF Kenny felt threatened. Bob, tipped off by Sugar, states at the tribal council that he agreed to give Kenny immunity if Bob, not Kenny, felt that Kenny was threatened: and Bob then calmly announces that Kenny is not in trouble. Saved face with the jury.

Sugar appears to have a good heart. She was all for Matty going until she saw Kenny and Crystal "kicking him when he's down". I believe she mentioned that she wanted a 'good person' to win. Her decision to give Matty her immunity idol was utterly unforeseen (at least, by me) and spectacular in effect. One of the great moments of tribal council.

Susie: she reminds me of Sandra (a previous winner), for obvious reasons. Hispanic heritage, female, flying way under the radar. However, if she is in the final two (or three) against Bob and/or Sugar, I doubt she has a chance.

Crystal: one of the most un-athletic Olympic Gold Medal athletes I have ever seen. She couldn't even toss a ball into a basket.

Bob: one of the most unlikely athletes I have ever seen. Four wins in a row.

I would be happy if Bob or Sugar won. I would hate to see Kenny win. Matty or Susie:

 

[kbkids]

I can't believe how immaturely they are acting at Ponderosa. I didn't like Crystal - but geez, grow up people! At least Charley has the common sense to acknowledge that he's acting like a 2 year old. Corinne is just nasty mean!!!

 

[SadieDog]

I would like to see Bob, Sugar and Matty in the final 3.

I was thrilled with the outcome last night. That was great.

 

[jmskinner]

No. She blew them a kiss and the final comments she just said she had no idea that Sugar turned on her.


I did not like Sugar in the beginning, but I like her now.

I didn't see her blowing the kiss and I though she was nice about it, but realized I really wasn't paying attention.

Geez! Talk about childish. I just watched the latest Ponderosa videos. The other 4 jury members(losers) are giving Crystal the silent treatment. I am not at all surprised that Corinne and Randy would act that way. But, Marcus and Charlie? I thought they were more mature than that.

As much as I disliked Crystal, all those other people are worse. Well, at least she got more money than they did.

 

[puffkin]

Sugar made a smart move giving the idol to Matty. It was pointless, as Crystal easily had enough votes, but the symbolism to the jury is quite good. She is playing a very strategic game. I am also glad that Bob finally got up to speed in the strategy part of the game....I think he is going to take the whole thing.

Of course they will take Susy to the final 3 (if it is 3)...nobody on the jury will vote for her.

I liked Kenny a lot at the beginning, but my opinion has really changed of him in the last few weeks. I hope he goes next.

Up until the merge, I thought this season was terrible, but now it is getting pretty good. I really enjoyed Fans vs. Favorites though, so this season isn't quite as exciting as that was.

I don't agree with this. Sandra at least played the game. She strategized and had some idea's as to who would go next. Susie has done nothing to show she is playing this game. The only strategic thing she has done so far was flip alliances. She broke away from Corrine/Randy/Charlie et.al

I would be happy if Bob or Sugar won. I would hate to see Kenny win. Matty or Susie:

What would be wrong with Matty winning?

 

[puffkin]

I agree. Crystal has a strong personality and she was playing the game. I think she is a good person IRL. Those other people are just plain nasty. Marcus seems like a good guy that is just getting caught up in the moment (not an excuse though). I can't stand the others.

 

[Disney1fan2002]

I have Kenny in a pool. I would take $180 if he wins. I don't want him to win! LOL. He was so fake last night telling Bob he feels unsafe. He has a bad feeling, ect. I am glad Bob confronted him, and called him out on his bull. The pouting and puppy dog eyes were over the top...IMO.

I watched the Sandra survivor again a couple of months ago and I simply thought that she flew under the radar, until the very end. True, in many episodes (when she was featured at all) she would be rather snippy towards others, but snippiness is not gameplay.

As for Matty, I simply have not been impressed by his gameplay. He is petulant. I have nothing really, really against him, but I like more proactive players. Bob has been very active: not only in winning immunity, but his creating a very realistic fake immunity idol, and actually passing it off as such, was wonderful.

This may have a lot to do with the editing of the show, but at first I liked Kenny - he seemed like a kid on his first camping trip, and I thought he was an underdog. Then when he made one or two decisions that had an impact on the game, Kenny got WAY too cocky, "I'm in charge" and all that stuff, and that's when I stopped liking him. If he was any fan of the show, he'd know that you can't get too arrogant/full of yourself because that's when the tables will turn on you.

I agree with you, it probably is all editing because I felt the same way. What I am trying to remember though is if all his "I am in control" moments were made to others or if they were just shown in his confessionals? I know he said things like that to Crystal but that makes sense since they had such a tight alliance. I just don't think he is saying that stuff around camp though or the others would have been gunning for him so much earlier. Those editors really do mess with our minds
