    Probst was probably worried that in a season where they have so much invested that they were losing one of the most popular players so early.

    Or happy hour at the Marriott tiki bar hadn't started yet.

    What's the rule on cameramen getting involved? I'm sure it's seriously, seriously discouraged, if a guy drops like a rock in front of you, you don't do anything?

    And I forgot how good Boston Rob is at this game. A lot of the time, the people that get labeled as "good at Survivor" I think, eh, a little luck, a little skill, a lot circumstance. Boston Rob though, man, everyone knows he's a favorite to be there in the end and I'm not sure there's anyone capable of getting him out before then, either. Crazy if he can go wire to wire as the favorite.

    I don't think with this kind of group that anyone is a true "favorite" Boston Rob would have a lot of trouble in jury since they know how rich he and Amber are. The same can be said for anyone who won the game (Tom, JT, Parvati...)

    How about Coach flipping off Probst when he thought he won but didn't? Gee, what an honorable, spiritual guy.

    This single-challenge format sucks.
    All the chit-chat stuff at camp is boring. They need two challenges per episode to keep it interesting.

    It was a great challenge wrapped around 45 minutes of mostly worthless chatter.

    This show is definitely better when the villains are winning.

    It would be amazing TV to have Colby, Tom, Boston Rob and Russell in the Final Four.

    We're not that lucky. I really think the winner of this season will be someone who is completely off the radar.

    I hope I'm wrong.

    I looked at the clock and after almost 30 minutes, literally nothing had happened. I think they think all these big personalities are interesting enough that we'd rather see them interact than see them compete. I think they're wrong. They're certainly not going to be able to keep that up as the numbers dwindle.

    From Probst's blog, sounds like James is pretty much losing it. I wonder what's ahead there.

    And Probst again brings up a great point: If Russell could check his ego, he'd realize that if he would team with Boston Rob they'd be able to run the game to the end.

    That would be so great to see a Boston Rob/Russell alliance.

    Probst's blogs are great.

    Considering the persuasive abilities of Russell and Rob, it would be tough to see the rest of them putting together enough votes to oust them.
