The Quasi Juice

Was a good episode, yes. The two undeserving returnees are already on the outs, love it. I can see this being a good season.

After watching the interviews by Dalton Ross with the players I have a better idea of everyone. Laura's daughter (I forgot Laura was one of the returnees) will be the first one out. She seems weak and she was already crying about being away from her family DURING THE INTERVIEW. The game hasn't even started yet. It seems like Laura wants to be there badly and she begged her daughter to be her loved one but she doesn't really want to be there. Rupert's wife is pretty fucked too, I think she'll suck in the challenges. As for the returnees Rupert is screwed because he still seems delusional and annoying and I think Gervase will do very well but get voted off near the end due to having an amazing social game ala Brenda. I'm still sticking with Hayden or Aras to win, although Aras' brother Vytas is a potential winner too I think. Tyson will probably make a stupid decision again.

That's what I thought from the start; people were never screw their loved one which makes for a very boring season unless most pairs get broken up pre-merge.

City, Monaco and PSG could afford to pay the same price I suppose.

Can't wait, I need some Survivor in my life. I was under the impression Sandra would return with her military husband but they were false rumours apparently. Fun to see old school Survivors back like Gervase and Tina, even though Tina will probably be one of the first out. Kat and Tyson should be hilarious. Aras seems like a very cool guy after listening to some interviews with Rob C and he's a winner so kinda deserves this. Most people hate Colton but I don't, he made the first half of One World slightly entertaining. Is that his gay lover? Doesn't seem like the type he'd fall for. Fuck Rupert and Candice. It's Rupert's FOURTH TIME and he was a complete dick the last 2 times. I can't see his wife doing well either. What did Candice ever do to deserve to come back? Yuck. Surely there are other Survivors with interesting loved ones like Lisa W's brother who seemed to grasp the game pretty well and he was in shape. Monica I'm indifferent about, I was sort of rooting for her in One World for a bit but she doesn't deserve to return solely because of her husband. Hayden is a former winner of Big Brother, part of the well known "Brigade" that ran the show. He made good decisions throughout the show, did well in challenges and had a good social game. I can definitely see him go very far, especially if somehow none of the cast members know he's a former winner of a reality show. Hayden and Aras are my two main picks to win.

Who the fuck gets an eye infection?

Bumpity bump. I haven't been on for a good while so I just saw this video. It's not that bad honestly. Shamar seems unstable but it's not like he's aggressive and out to hurt somebody. Why was there an HD camera following him right from the start anyway? Seems staged. Anyway you can also make a case for Brandon being casted twice for the show despite clearly having mental issues. They could have made a mistake the first time, but they could have known he'd be a loose cannon the second time but that's obviously what they wanted. It's not like Survivor is the only show that does this type of casting though; Big Brother, the MTV Challenges, Redneck Island etc they all thrive off of these crazy personalities.

Hells Kitchen. It's a horrible cooking show with ridiculous Americans. Still watch it. Same here. I haven't been enjoying True Blood that much for a while now but I still watch wanting to know what is going to happen with the characters and the occasional bad ass moments.

How did the UK NOT give The Netherlands any points? I was very surprised. Same goes for Germany who tends to vote for us, they gave us no points and Hungary the full 12 points? Da fuck? Anyway, was a great show and a deserved winner although I liked the Ukraine song a lot too plus that woman is gorgeous I quite liked Belgium's too and I have a soft spot for Romania's performance just because of how crazy and impressive it is.

Lithuania's song is just.....decent. There's nothing special about it, it's just there. I found Belarus and Ireland much worse though.

@Yubari, I avoid Sucks now unless it's at a safe time like now but I won't look after this week. I've been spoiled too much. I've resorted to watching no YouTube Survivor stuff either because that's how I knew Cochran was going to make it to the end kinda. I also knew Malcolm was going out around 7th place. I also heard Brandon got taken to the hospital after the game and the early spoilers were that he made it to the end, heh. People also said Dawn went to a mental hospital in the Philippines after the game :/ I didn't know how Redemption Island, Philippines and South Pacific were going to go which enhanced my viewing experience big time.

When the likes of Ireland, Lithuania and Belarus got through I thought we were fucked. Then when there were 3 left, Belgium took a spot and Ukraine and Serbia were still left I was 100% sure we were screwed. I was wrong yay So deserved. The crowd was chanting for us even.

Okay wow the first 3 make no sense.

Okay, wut, Cascada's song is Euphoria. None of these countries would have made it. All their songs suck. Denmark has this in the bag.

If Holland don't go through to the finals this time it's a fucking disgrace IMO. Most of the songs tonight were cliché as fuck Euphoria-ish songs. Serbia particularly sounded like Euphoria and every sentence in the Irish song I could finish, it was that predictable and cliché. I think Denmark is the definite favourite. I expect Ukraine to do well too.

Boston Rob did well in All Stars and his wife won. In HvV he got screwed by a retarded decision by Tyson, otherwise he would have run that alliance to the end. Don't forget he also did well in Amazing Race, came second. What a great moment that was, Dawn taking her teeth out. Justice. By the way, I thought Brenda's announcement was going to be she's competing in the Loved Ones season. Anyone else? Although eventually I did notice her boobs were larger than usual

Eh, you are the one that gave us the theme for the season so nothing in my post is new to you. I'm using examples of people that I think could be in the season but I have no clue, there is no list yet nor is there a boot list obviously. So reading my post spoils absolutely nothing for you. They haven't even started filming. I HATE spoilers that ruin the season. HvV was almost ruined for me because I accidentally read Sandra was going to win and I hated it. I will never post that shit. @Rock, you're right, a Loved Ones themed season has the potential to be very dramatic. I'm just worried relatives will stick together if the situation arises they are on the same tribe and that's just boring. I just can't see a wife blindsiding her husband for example. As for pre-existing relationships, there are definitely some cases that it didn't help at all but if you look at Boston Rob, he was friends with most guys when he went into All Stars and he used it to get far. Cochran apparently is one of those guys that goes to all fan events and has made many Survivor friends, thus going into this season people generally liked him already. I think it did help him this season.

Ah fuck it, let's just not spoiler it anymore, we all know it anyway and it's not like we're discussing boot order or something. I wonder if this Loved Ones season is really going to happen and how. I guess the best thing to do is make sure the loved ones aren't in the same tribe at the start. Instead of returnees vs. their family members, they could also do a mix like Russell Hantz on a tribe with Lisa W's brother etc. But I'm not sure I like the concept, because you run into the risk that it'll be lame as fuck. Every family couple will form an alliance once they are on each other's tribe, simple as that, and that eliminates possible blindsides and shit. And say Sandra's husband makes it to the jury and Sandra to the end, you really think he'll vote for someone other than Sandra?

I love Survivor and I don't want it to die I love returning players even though i'm a hardcore fan which I guess is an oddity I guess. If they go with the returning players you mentioned next season I'll mark out and watch anyway. Hell, this season has turned out to be great. The best seasons have been Micronesia, HvV, this season etc for a reason.

Would mean two seasons in a row that are returning players heavy though.

No, they haven't started taping next season. They usually tape two seasons somewhat in a row during the summer, which is why it's already such a long time ago for the contestants in this season on TV. By the way, that spoiler is now rumoured to be for S28, and S27 will most likely be an all new cast. Because they are casting both seasons at the same time it's difficult for "insiders" to distinguish which person is in what season. Hell, they could even tape S28 before S27. Probst promised on Twitter while back that there would be an all new cast season in 2013/2014.

Yeah, fuck Dawn. She's been a mess this season and not likeable at all. Brenda really shined the last few episodes, she was sweet, kind, strategically she was doing well and she was a beast in challenges despite being injured. Dawn won that challenge 'cause she's short, simple as. I'm guessing Cochran, Dawn, Sherri final 3, Cochran wins. Erik is the one that gets taken out of the game. If it's not Erik, it's probably Dawn going mental which would then mean Cochran/Sherri/Eddie final 3. By the way, SPOILER for what the (rumoured) theme will be for the next season and one major contestant:

Aww Andrea <3 But yeah Dawn is crazy, uber paranoid. Does this mean Dawn has the idol?

It would be best for entertainment if Cochran gets voted off next week because right now he looks like the set winner, but I doubt it. Dude has this game on lock.
