Does anyone think that if Frannie hadn't won the reward challenge she may not have been voted off last week? I think I missed something last night. Why did the four non Tika members split their votes instead of all voting for Carson? I'm glad Carolyn used her idol on Carson, but unfortunately it was unnecessary. Now it looks like she's the target next week. I hope she finds another idol, doesn't tell anyone, then plays it. Also, again, I may be missing something, but why wouldn't Tika stay together next week to keep the majority? Carolyn doesn't win challenges so not a physical threat. Or did she win a challenge? Anyway, if she goes, the other three girls can band together to take out Yam Yam or Carson. I didn't quite understand why Yam Yam said they were the majority this week when the other four could have voted together to become the majority. I don't think I'm paying enough attention when watching the show. I do like the idea of a 90 minute show. I'd like to see more reward challenges or the food auction again. Although I'm sure having two challenges per show would be very taxing on the players. Is Amazing Race only on once a year? My daughter and her husband wanted to try out for AR, they are travel bloggers so would have loved it, but he's Australian. I would love Tika to be the final three on Survivor!

It's foolish to vote out Sifu. They're already much weaker than the other two teams. They need him or they'll be going to tribal council until the next merge. I'm glad Sean is gone. What a fake person, telling the new tribe how loyal he is right after he tried to vote out Kaleb. I like the new 90 minute format. Before, it was the reward challenge, a few minutes for camp scenes, the immunity challenge, and tribal council. It wasn't enough time to see their game strategies with their tribe members, which is a lot more interesting than the same old same old puzzle challenges.

ded...I agree. She just doesn't come across as "pleasant". Maria's not "fun". Soda was fun. I liked her, she was a strong, likeable player. Sorry to see her go. Yes....I think there are a few villians.....they forgot to have fun and play a social game.

I never knew that losing your camera crew was penalizing either. In fact, I never gave the camera crew much thought until last night. Now it makes sense that each team would have their personal crew. ha It happened at the round-about. Angie and Danny took a left turn at the last minute while the crew took a right. Apparently it's not a matter of them just following a team, the directions are shared the entire time?
