It is saying a lot that every week Caleb becomes more of a favorite of mine considering that three weeks ago I didn't even want him on my TV at all. I think the Beauty tribe may go far as a whole because they really aren't getting a lot of screen time compared to the other two tribes. I can see an alliance of the three girls and Caleb going far if they don't become paranoid and turn on each other.

I had nothing against Elisabeth I was just happy that she got voted out because of the Obama looking dude. He came across as such an ass this past episode. I really like Neal though, he came on strong for me this episode. Cydney continues to be the best!

Yeah Obama should have got the boot but I can see they kept him. He better hope the win or a tribe switch saves him (I think one will happen soon) or he is dead.

I can see an alliance of the three girls and Caleb going far if they don't become paranoid and turn on each other. Like I told you on the first page, the thing that's so admirable about Caleb is that he's honest to a fault, to the point where he would throw himself out of the game to help an ally. Basically what he did on Big Brother, but here's what you have to remember about BB and Survivor. BB doesn't necessarily rig the game but they force the people to be obnoxious for the sake of entertainment. Survivor is Caleb really just being himself.

Yep. ^
I really hope a douche gets medically evacuated today and not someone I care for like Caleb or Neal.

BB doesn't necessarily rig the game but they force the people to be obnoxious for the sake of entertainment. Survivor is Caleb really just being himself. All very true. BB and Survivor are very different games and shows. It goes along way towards why I consider Survivor must see TV and Big Brother not so much. My biggest problems with Caleb when he was on BB weren't related to his gameplay. It was the way he acted when not playing the game and that is the stuff he isn't doing on Survivor. No creepy stalker behavior. No self-deluded bragging about his self-perceived talents, however imaginary they actually are. If "Survivor Caleb" is more close to the "real Caleb" than "BB Caleb", then he did himself a real disservice by even being on BB and letting him be egged on by producers and/or the other players to act like he did.

Damn, I felt like I was watching a news report from the site of a natural disaster. Three people down from heat exhaustion. Sorry to see Caleb have to be evac'd. I would support him getting a second chance on a future season.
I'd be worried for the beauty tribe because Caleb was so strong in challenges but next week is the shuffle so it won't matter. I hope the brawn trio gets broken up and targeted by everyone else. Jeff all but said that Alecia was more likable than the three of them put together and I agree. Sucks that the season may be reduced to me cheering against the people I don't like but there are very few people left I care enough about to cheer for.

Man, Caleb is the man. The fact that he went all out just in a reward challenge. He would have went all out of the reward was a scoop of rice that's how much heart he had.
I hope he returns for a Heroes vs Villains 2 Season.

I hope he returns for a Heroes vs Villains 2 Season. He IS coming back no doubt. Heroes vs Villains would work for him but if not that then certainly Redemption because he only lost because he was medically evacuated. I am glad Cydney survived because I cared not for Alecia. I do have to say that if I was in Alecia's shoes and was treated like how she was I would have told EVERYONE that Jason/Scott found the hidden immunity idol. I mean she knew she was going so why not go out with a bang and basically cast a Destiny Bond ( bad guy™ you know what I'm talking about) on her nemesis x2 in Jason/Scott? Next week should be really interesting with the switch. I hope my girl Anna and Julia stay together because along with Peter and Cydney they are the only people I really care for now.

Really sucks for Beauty, especially Tai. I don't like seeing him upset like that, but at least he's still cognizant of the game with his mention of the Idol. I was just coming around to Caleb and then that incredibly irresponsible challenge came around. I remember seeing somewhere that they changed a couple challenges for Cambodia/Second Chance because of how brutal this season was. We still have one more evac this season which is ridiculous.
Was relieved Cydney wasn't part of it. Sure, she's teamed up with bully central right now, but they are excellent shields so long as she stays loyal to the point where they consider it a liability trying to get rid of her. She also has insurance of knowing who has Brawn's Idol, so if she needs to blindside, she can (or if to solidify her alliance even more, let them know if one of them is being targeted.)

Really stinks to see Caleb gone but man did that guy fight for it! I know they will bring him back too.
I can't stand Jason & Scott. When Scott told Alecia to keep cheerleading, it's what she's good at, I was so pissed off! Jason & Scott are bullies plain and simple!

Huge survivor fan, didnt know this thread existed, but from the first 4 episodes I think we can rule out some winners and narrow it down. From my perspective, only Anna or Michelle are viable winners from Beauty, and I'm giving Michelle a very low chance, but weve at least seen a little from her so she might turn it on down the line. From brains, only Debbie has a shot. She's probably my number 1 choice to take it as we speak. She's been given a great edit, with confessionals talking about her daughters, her career(s), camp life, and most importantly her strategy (she's a mastermind!). From Braun both Cydney and Jason have a great shot. While Scot is in a good position, theres not enough "strategy" talk and confessionals. PLus no jury will ever award him the money. I think thus far, the people that will not win are Nick, Julia, Neal, Peter, Joe, Aubry, and Scot. I do not think Tai will win, but I have not counted him yet. If I had to guess the person most likely to be medivaced it would be Tai. Just like Caleb, he has been given a wonderful edit, but I think that is because they want us to remember him so they can bring him back. Probst is not high on this season, and that generally means he doesnt like the winner. A Tai win would make him love the season, as he said hes the next Rupert. I think Peter may go far, but hes too arrogant to win a jury vote, i could see him being a potential goat, similar to Albert. If I had to rank who I think is the most likely winner, I would say 1. Debbie 2. Jason 3. Cyndney 4. Anna 5. Michelle 6. Tai. While Aubry, Neal, Joe, and Julia are in great positions currently, the lack of any meaningful confessionals from them really makes me think they were not the winner.
Also, between twitter and reddit, the SJW have come out in full force in defense of Alicia. I believe the word bullying is overused and in turn it makes actual instances of bullying less significant. Bullying is bad, of course, nobody says it isnt. But when every little rude remark, or moment of frustration gets called bullying, then when somebody is actually being bullied it makes it seem less important. Scot and Jason did not bully Alicia. Talking trash about alicia in confessional, where she cant hear it, is not bullying. Is it rude? Yes. Does it make them look like a-holes? Sure. Is it bullying? No. I didn't think it was bullying when I originally watched the episode, and after watching it 3 more times, I still don't think it is. Jason calling her Blondie isnt bullying. Is blondie really a derogatory insult? Not really. Jason is from a military background, in the military plenty of people get called little nicknames. If anything, I think "Blondie" was a term of endearment for Alicia. At the medivac Jason even says, "I may not like them or agree with them, but they are my teammates and I'll stick with them to the bitter end." He may not have liked Alicia, but he would have stuck with her and rode with her. That is until she made it very clear she wouldnt do the same. She dug her own grave by telling her tribe BEFORE THE IMMUNITY CHALLENGE (shes not very smart) that she was flipping at the merge. Therefore they threw the challenge. Had she not said that, they wouldve tried to win. Put yourself in their shoes. Its one of the most miserable locations ever, you're sweaty, dehydrated, hungry, and you have an annoying person like alecia who probably never shut up, constantly bickered back and forth, is dumb, and cant do anything (Dont give me that she started the fire crap.) I'd be pretty annoyed and probably snap too. Nothing they said was even bad. If calling someone blondie, and telling them (while theyre kicking dirt and not helping in a challenge at all) to keep cheerleading is bullying then everything is bullying. Hell the cashier who doesnt tell me to have a good day is bullying now. Its ridiculous. Being a little rude is not bullying. Its frustrating to read and listen to.
Just my 2 cents

Also, I know its a proven fact that whoever is portrayed as the underdog will be universally loved, but WHY? Alecia not only was dumb (you can tell from how she talks and how she spaces out ie. the first challenge with the puzzle pieces,) she also has a terrible personality. Have any of you ever left your house and had to be around people like her? Ya know, people that argue all the time about EVERYTHING no matter how little it is, people that constantly try to insert themselves into every conversation, people that have to be told a thousand times what and how to do something? Have you? Now can you imagine living with that person on an island 24/7 with no food or water in the baking sun? You only see a person how the producers want you to view them. Theres a reason why you didnt see Alicia feed scot and jason that rotten fruit shes so proud to share in every interview. But I guess thats fine, because even though its the first day and they havent even done anything to her, shes Alicia, so...SLAY QUEEN! No, its a two way street. Shes not a victim, and she wasnt bullied. Calling this bullying devalues the significance of ACTUAL bullying. They were a little rude to her. Thats it. Get over it. This is life, and shes on survivor, a game for a million dollars. People arent gonna be nice to you when youre playing for life changing money.

Am I the only one who likes Debbie? I'd love to see her and Joe last the show. No, Debbie is awesome. Very entertaining and endearing and very perceptive and savvy about the game.

I'd be very happy if someone like Anna or Cydney won this season now that Caleb and Elisabeth are out.
Tomorrow should give us a BIG sense of who will make it to the merge by seeing the new tribe dynamics.
