I don't know if you all watch Deal or no Deal island but dude just walked with 5.8 million. He is a Survivor Austrailia winner and we need him to play the American Version. He was a complete master on Deal or no Deal island and he apparently destroyed everyone on Ausie Survivor when he played. HIs name is David Genat. Seems like a real quality type guy also.

Behind you
If u are not rooting for Joe and possibly Eva. I don’t want to be friends with you. At all.
When we were watching that challenge my wife and I were both pretty affected, our younger daughter shares similar traits with Eva in that she can get overwhelmed and when she does it causes her to react pretty similarly to how Eva was reacting after she kept failing to complete that puzzle. So glad Joe was there to help bring her down. She picked the right person to entrust with her story early.

I think Cedrick made the right move. Sai, while absolutely insufferable, is zero threat in this game. No social game, not a challenge threat, and is playing way to hard. I don't think his choice had anything to do with loyalty and everything to do with strategy. Bianca had a strong social game, and could've been a challenge threat. She messed up big time telling Ced that she didn't have a vote. He made the right call, I have no confidence he'll be able to cut ties with Sai before it bites him in the butt, but he made the right move last night.

Im not sure I disagree, but I also think getting rid of cancers in the tribes before the merge is beneficial to the tribe. Looks like next week is the merge, so no biggie there, but he for sure should of get rid of her on week 2.

Last night just put me over the edge with him. Also soured my view on Chrissy.

Sai will turn on him though. He made the mistake of not getting close to the others in his tribe and strike some deals. Sai is there for Sai and won't help him and will end up cutting him

She will absolutely turn on him. He made the right move in the moment. Let the chips fall where they may later, but he showed Chrissy and Mitch he's open to working with them.

Welp. First time for me ever crying during an episode happened tonight.

Just watched this week's episode just now. Episodes like this are why survivor is the king of reality shows. Wanted to give Eva a hug through my screen and was so glad Joe was allowed to help her through her episode.

Awesome episode! Well other than the tribal vote at the end but I guess you can also give them credit for the edit to make it an unexpected result too. I figured as soon as Eva started to struggle with the challenge that she was going to have an episode and we'd get that moment with Joe and her having to reveal her autism. What I did not expect was how much it tugged at my heart strings and how Jeff got pretty choked up. The contestants in general I was very impressed with how they handled it as I don't think they recognized in the moment what was going on with Eva and you could see that Joe was really struggling not to intervene until he pretty much had no choice. Pretty sure him and Eva are going to be lifelong friends after this season as that was one of the most courageous moments I've ever seen on the show. And I am glad she powered through it and won the challenge because you know had Sai won she would have been over the top celebrating while she would be freaking out. Going to be disappointed if 1 of them don't win this season but other than Sai and Cedrek and maybe Starr (more on her below) there isn't really anyone left right now that I can't stand.

Onto other things, this was probably one of the best episodes in the history of the show I thought. Had a lot of neat moments with Joe's new tribe too who could have basically said everyone for themselves after that last tribal but instead bonded over stories of their heritage and decided they were going to come together as a block going forward. Then you have Eva's tribe that really bonded after their win and Starr does a complete 180 and now wants to be best friends with Eva after being the 1 person that was pushing to get her out. Even lets her have her beware advantage idol! She finally realized that her social game sucked and it was time to start making allies not enemies.

And then there is Cedrek and Sai... both have no business being in this game anymore and hopefully the merge is not kind to them. I really want to know how he got Chrissy to vote for Bianca. Obviously he had to say something to her after Bianca told him she did not have a vote. That was a dumb move by Bianca too and I was waiting for him to be dumb at tribal and out her on it before the vote. If he had done my play would have been "I only told you that to see if I could trust you and now I know that I can't so my vote is definitely in play tonight." That probably would have caused some fun chaos at tribal if she was able to pull off the bluff. Anyways he is a fool for not using the opportunity to vote Sai out who they can't stand and who is not someone you want to take to a merge when you have already wrote her name down twice. I think Sai still gets voted out here soon but the longer she stays in the more of a snake she becomes.

Special Agent Phillip Sheppard was pretty bad, and made it to the final tribal. Then he got invited to play again.
Him and coach may be the 2 most annoying players ever on Survivor. I mean this guy claims he is a former federal agent but how do you take this seriously?

All I remember about him was his saggy pnk drawers...
My wife and I ran into Phillip in Vegas. We told him we enjoyed him on Survivor and asked for a picture. He declined saying he was heading to charity event where people would be paying for pictures. No hard feelings, and he was nice about it.
