I am really loving this season. (I think this is the season Jeff should've way overhyped, rather than the Merica one, but I guess he learnt his lesson there.)
It helps that they have a new location and that it is so lush and green and filled with amazing wildlife. The camera work is a delight - even if it was all arseholes left, I would still be enjoying each ep just for the beauty of it.
But so many people I really like are still there. (No more Woo! is sad. I will miss Savage, and still miss Varner.) It is fantastic that Spencer got to stay this long, and is now in a nice little nest I hope for a while. Ditto, fantastic to see Joe in a somewhat better position than on his vile season. God I hated Merica. So good to see Keef again. I like Tasha a bit less than I did on Cagayan, but it's still good to see her play.
Some dick I don't much like will probably win. But it is so beautiful, and the gameplay is varied - I hate it when it drags on, with the obvious person in the strong alliance winning. (Merica, again.) And monkee! makes it all worthwhile.
