There was probably a clue in the fortune cookies, given the way JLP alluded to it.I want a Chinese banquet!
BEEEEEEEUUUUWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!…that bloody background music does my head in…… cheers.
Shonee got a little bit excited over JLP in a wet t-shirt.…why not just send The Pags home… I bet that even he’s over it… cheers.
And got the other tribe ready to enter tribal council all in advance ? Hmm.. Rumours haha.Anyway, that was a good episode until the twist at the end.
Hayley looked like the one who would be blindsided, so production steps in to save her.
Well and truly screwed over by production - and all by accident too.…Simon looks like a complete nuff nuff!… cheers.
If they're dumb enough to think Simon is smart enough to make a move like that they all deserve to lose to him.They are acting like spoilt kids over Simon & the non idol.
More production incompetence than cruel. Was happy how it played out last night ultimately having no impact on tribal, but the backlash is somewhat unfair.I think Simon probably shouldn’t have assumed it was an idol. He should have known better.
However, it was a bit cruel that it wasn’t explicitly explained to be a clue.
George first to do it of course when it fell due to another production "error" which hurt Simon and helped George, but as soon as Simon returns the favour they're shouting at him to play fair.Haha George tossed Simon’s ring. Simon’s jump up onto the net was a bit impressive tho.
Exactly.Haha funny. But the problem I have is that it actually isn’t even the cookie jar lid. It was a clue to the location of a hidden idol. But usually even clues come with some instructions. So in some ways it’s understandable that Simon assumed it to be an idol.
Sam clearly on the bottom of that alliance - probably too far back in the alumni to have pre-existing relationships with the returnees. Matt will take that place when they merge unless David and Sam remain strong.What am I missing in regards to Sam?
Seemed to be playing a cracking game and all of a sudden on the outter with his alliance?
Could have been the best episode of the season with a true blindside that affects things moving forward, but no, producers prioritise protecting George so throw in a twist which saves his season 6 buddy and strengthens his numbers at the Heroes.I see these sort of episodes as a waste of a episode.
That is a really good point, especially with Shaun's history which I think George did comment on. But George comments on everything.I do feel kind of sorry for Simon.
Why is it that people accept without question that Shaun and Flick believed it was a real idol, but not Simon?
Talking tribal showed the reasoning.. George wants to vote out Flick.. Liz and Shonnee want to vote out Matt.I’m ok with Liz challenging George for leadership. Fun times ahead!
Yes I noticed that and thought wow, very one sided..George first to do it of course when it fell due to another production "error" which hurt Simon and helped George, but as soon as Simon returns the favour they're shouting at him to play fair.
Yes I agree, I was thinking finally, if it just goes ahead as portrayed it will be a fabulous blindside and the looks on the others faces will be priceless making it a great episode... But, no, production had to step in to fuck it all up & save Hayley WHILST feeding Geo a bonus too...Could have been the best episode of the season with a true blindside that affects things moving forward, but no, producers prioritise protecting George so throw in a twist which saves his season 6 buddy and strengthens his numbers at the Heroes.
Think Liz has screwed herself too long term as she had a strong alliance building there and an idol to protect her, whilst George and Shonee didn't need her and there is clearly only one or two more votes to merge. Find her rather unlikeable too.
I'm sorry that Hayley's blindside wasn't allowed to play out - not because I don't like her (I'm neutral and she's a clever player) - because she won't let them get that close again. It would have been a TRUE blindside and the look on her face would have been priceless.
Now she will be extra wary, and we've been robbed of that.
Yes - so often producers won't let the long game play out in favour of a short term stunt.Yes I agree, I was thinking finally, if it just goes ahead as portrayed it will be a fabulous blindside and the looks on the others faces will be priceless making it a great episode... But, no, production had to step in to fuck it all up & save Hayley WHILST feeding Geo a bonus too...
& the other thing that would have made it such a great episode is that it would have led to more great episodes as we would have seen a new voting block formed + the fallout from the great blindside ... instead we get some shit show scripted by the producers yet again..
Exactly - at least bump her to the follow season. Giving injured players a place in a subsequent season seems to be their "get out of lawsuit free" card. I assume quite a few people said no before they got to her for this season anyway.So if production told Jacqui that she could play in the next season, yet the next season is reportedly a newbie season due to popular demand, they does that’s not a newbie season? I had my hopes up there..
They really need to bite the bullet and go with a fresh cast. Sure, there aren’t Georges and Haileys around every corner, but normal people can be fun too!
