Survivor: Aww, so sad about James. He dealt with it well, but I thought he could go all the way.
Thought Amanda played things VERY well. Definitely gets points on the "outwit" scale for that make-everyone-vote-for-me ploy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What scrappy said. The show has kept me interested through the loss of good characters via good suspense.

Another fun tribal council, for sure.

ITA Scrappy. This season has been AWESOME with the blindsides.
Poor Alexis, we hardly knew ye.
And poor James, having to show up in the jury carrying his IV!
Has the environment gotten more dangerous, or have the medics gotten more strict?

While I haven't really enjoyed the season, these last few tribal councils have been AWESOME.

I think there have been way more physical challenges (and IMO they haven't been fun to watch, which is one reason that I was pretty bored by this season). Also, I think that they should just treat them right away with bandages and Cipro (or whatever), instead of making them tough it out. I know they are not really out in the wild, "surviving".

Yeah, Jonathan's injury might not have been fixable (though *preventable* is another story) but I think a little freer hand with the antibiotics might have saved James.

Absolutely. They already get free sunscreen, why not free bandaids? The whole show could be sponsored by Nexcare and the makers of Neosporin!

I read over at TWOP that there was more rain than they expected and a lot of accidents. Not just the contestants but it seems there's been huge turnover with the crew due to the same thing.
