Yeah being a threat to win is NOT good when the first weeks after a merge.
The people who made the big moves to take out Josh and Jeremy were totally right in taking them out.
It is shocking that other seasons have not seen this happen more often.
I mean the season Tyson won a couple ago it was so obvious he was going to win people were crazy to not take him out.
Same goes for Tony last season.

These past three tribals have been so great, especially tonight's. Two idols flushed out and Wes voted out...couldn't have possibly gone better in my book. Now hopefully the rest of his crumbling alliance will soon be joining him.

The only thing I can say about Wes being eliminated is WOW. That was well played by both Keith and Jon.
These past couple weeks have been great. Go Baylor!

Keith is ridiculously stupid! Reed's plan to blindside Jon was perfect and would have worked if Keith just STFU at tribal. I mean God does he have any common sense? Reed's mistake imo was that he trusted Keith to follow through on a solid plan and decided to vote for the obvious person to blindside which was Jon. The worst case scenario of Jon finding out he was going but then played his idol to then send either Keith or Wes home (if Keith didn't use his hidden idol) could have been avoided entirely if Reed, Wes, Keith, and Alec would have voted for say Jaclyn, Baylor, Missy, or Natalie. If that happened then one of the women (likely Jaclyn if you really wanted to knock Jon down a peg without getting him out outright) would have gone. The vote would have been: 4 for Jaclyn or another girl sending them home for sure, 3 for Keith, and 2 for Wes. Actually what would have been the best case scenario for Reed and Alec would have been if they both still convinced Jon and the girls to split the votes for Keith/Wes but in reality they voted as a four person group. The key to this plan would be that they would have actually wanted Keith to make his clusterf*ck of an 'error' that they should just stick to 'the plan'. They would need that to happen because then it would tip off Jon and the girls that Alec and Reed really were voting with Keith and Wes. If that happened then Natalie likely would have still told Jon to use his idol on himself to protect himself and they would have still split the votes (3 for Keith and 2 for Wes in an attempt to flush the idol, protect Jon, and get either Keith/Wes out 100%). Like I said earlier, Reed, Wes, Keith, and Alec would have actually voted for Jaclyn or another female meaning that Jon would have used his hidden immunity idol for NOTHING and his girlfriend would have be the one getting her torch snuffed! Maybe even Keith could have been confident that the plan would work and he could have held onto his hidden idol? That would have left Reed, Wes, Keith, and Alec in a much better spot because they would have all been around another week, Jon would have lost his idol and his girlfriend, and Keith would have still had his hidden idol. I really wish they would have thought of that since it would have been an even better tribal!

2 episodes tonight. Or one 2-hour episode. Either way, I hope one of the boots is Keith. Can't tolerate him much longer.

Glad Keith won that immunity but I'm sure he'll only be there for one more week. Or Alec.
That's the benefit of having loved ones. I do really like Keith and Aled so it's going to suck to see them go.

I don't think that was very smart on Natalie's part. I feel like she was just itching to make a big move, and keeping Keith wasn't a big enough move to blindside her alliance over, especially when Jon has an idol.

This is such a bad season. Looks like each week the contestants are sleepwalking through to the finale. I don't know of any players in a minority alliance have done less than Alec/Keith/Reed. And if Natalie wanted to rock the boat, boot Jaclyn not Alec who couldn't win a final tribal against Hitler.

So glad Jon's gone.
Hoping Keith or Baylor win it.

Natalie is the only one I want to win and think has a shot to win. Well to be fair if Keith wins his way to the final 3/2 then he is going to win for sure but if not then Natalie ftw! Jon was stupid as to be so trusting..

I'm really happy Natalie won. I've been rooting for her for most of the season, and she was definitely the right choice to win based on gameplay.
I think Jaclyn and Missy were screwed no matter what...whether they took Natalie or Keith at the end, I think they were bound to lose to one of them.

I hope the twins from The Amazing Race are first few to be eliminated. One of the most annoying teams in reality tv competition history! So in hindsight...I'm afraid I've got some bad news...

I really didn't like the twins when they were on The Amazing Race, but was rooting for Nat for the last few weeks just because all of the other people didn't really do anything to deserve to win the game. Her move to get Baylor out tonight more then likely won her the game as it made the final challenge a three person challenge and left no pairs to team up depending on who won immunity. I don't get why Jon didn't give Jackyln his idol during the tie breaker revote so that she would have it in the next tribal. I loved Reid's speech about Missy during the final tribal as it was true and very funny to see how Missy and Baylor took his words.

Didn't really like Natalie winning it all. Would've prefered Keith or Baylor.
A really great season though. Can't wait for next season!

I still have to watch the reunion but I am so happy Natalie won because she really deserved it. I feel like a lot of the people from this season could come back: Natalie, Reed, Josh, Jeremy, Keith, Baylor, and Jon (maybe Jaclyn) so that is pretty cool. EDIT:Reed's speech about Missy was epic! He burned that evil stepmother bitch hard! Here it is btw: "Missy, you cast yourself as the motherly figure. However, fans of classic literary fiction will see through very quickly to who your true character was, which is—the wicked stepmother, really, of the tribe. It’s the eccentric woman who comes in and makes demands on everyone for the things to which she feels so entitled. She spoils her children by perhaps giving them more rice at dinner and the best places to sleep at night in the shelter. She takes things she’s either not entitled to or didn’t earn herself, which was always evidenced by the fact that you got more gimmes in this game than anyone, and performed the worst out of anyone at challenges. Lastly, you made the quintessential wicked stepmother move by abusing the help, which in this case was the minority alliances in the game. You always made sure they felt inferior. You always kept them in their place. You always made it imminently clear that they weren’t coming to the ball that is the Tribal Council this evening here with you. So that, to me, feels like your fatal flaw in your whole plan, because unlike life, in the game of Survivor, the outcasts are the ones who get the final say. So in a sweeping moment of poetic justice, the people to which you were so rude and terrible to before relegating them to the jury with the help of your alliance are going to decide your fate this evening. This is why I love fairy tales, because they always have a happy ending and the wicked stepmother never wins.”
I loved it. Baylor's tears only made it better.

I loved it. Baylor's tears only made it better. The only ones coming back from this season is Reed or Nat. This season was not good and Probst admitted it to EW. Very few came to play the game. The few that were went right to the jury.
