I was thrilled with Survivor Episode 6 last night! (spoilers)...

It's not just a dislike for Colton. It's how HARD he was trying to BE a villain. He was doing this to be as hated as Russell. I doubt this is the last of him cause you can bet the producers were eating this up! Groan.

Was happy with the merge. No need to drag things out and have one tribe pick off the other. Let's get down to it!

What do you think?

1. I was glad to see Alicia as deflated as she was.

She enjoyed treating Christina like crap. And Colton threw her to the wolves by not giving her his Idol, I love it.
The women might try to ally against the men now, watch for Alicia to double deal and weasel out to the
other side. If she does it will only buy her a few weeks at best. I don't think anyone likes her. And yes,
I look for Colton to return in another season. Burnett likes to have people on the show who the viewers
love to hate. They will say "it is only fair to let him come back to finish the game properly" .

2. I fear that you are correct and we haven't seen the last of Colton...

..which is a real shame because the game is fine without the manufactured drama...

I hope Alicia reaps what she has sown...she was unbelievable towards Christina...and she's a Special Ed teacher? wow...

All I can say is this season just got markedly better...

which is why they buddied up. She was trying to be smarmy for air time. I don't think she'll last long now.

3. There are many reasons I could never be on this show...

had I been in Christina's position, I'd have been a real butt about it. I'd have gone to bed before the others or just lay myself right on top of anybody who wouldn't move. I'd have purposely done nothing to help in the challenge and I'd have smiled about it and murmured that I really didn't care for ice cream. But this is why I'd never last a second!

Thank goodness Colton's gone...he's nothing but a bully and acts like he's about 13.

You can be a villain, like Russell, but Colton is just an immature brat. No strategy at all, just get rid of someone you don't like, like the stand-up comic. And be sure to vote off your strongest players so you're almost guaranteed to lose the challenge and then you can vote off someone else you don't like!

He was playing checkers, and you need to play chess on Survivor.

Did Kat really not know what appendicitis was? Did she say she was going to make sure she never hurt her appendix because she didn't want them removed???

7. Kat was also the one who couldn't figure out how to step across her teammates

in one of the competitions where they stood in line on top of a plank over the water. And, unfortunately, she was positioned as the first one to go across & she took up most of the time before the men's team won.

6. I'm so glad he's gone! I wouldn't have been happy about the merge if he had remained

in the game, though. I would have enjoyed seeing Colton & his tight circle picked off one by one.

Colton's & Alicia's treatment of Christina last night was evil, so now Alicia is on top of my list for getting what she deserves.

Here's what I hope will happen:

The team of men & women that were so strong as a merged team will continue their alliance & Christina will join them & fill them in about Alicia's disloyalty. I hope the game doesn't revert back to men against women.
