I do like the way the teams are mixed up every week, but the inherent problem is that if you subscribe to the thought that they should have kept Christian because he could have most likely helped where strength was needed...well that could backfire, because if he choose a different colored ball from you, his strength could be used against you...

That's true Bon, I didn't think of that. I think he not doing much amongst the snakes might have been his downfall, but JD seemed to have done less. Right now I like Jay, he's in a really good position too, bc he can play both sides of the fence. I'm already looking forward to Thursday, this show's growing on me lol.

*yawn* they spend like 10 minutes showing the challenge, and they're so dang lame! looks like there might be a bit of a twist next week that will hopefully liven this thing up!

Actually it is kindof boring. John Does team lost in the challenge. One of the girls was really slacking off and I don't know if that was intentional. Azmyth became captain. Made his first mates and him split the money equally with the winning team. He also started talking in a very annoying accent. At this point I turned it off as I really didn't care what happened next.

Jay and Jupiter were named the officers by Azmyth. Alexis, Cheryl and Laurel were marked with the black spot. Jay really wants Cheryl voted out. He had all the votes he needed except for 1. He paid Sean $1000 to secure his vote for Cheryl to go. Sean betrayed him and voted for Alexis. The votes were tied with 4 for Cheryl and 4 for Alexis. Laurel was safe. The captain had to decide who was cut loose. He chose Alexis and she was cut adrift.

I'm glad JD is no longer Capt. Azemyth is great...except for the fake accent. Oy. I'm glad Cameron called him out on it. Show is still dull, but what the hey, it's better than being stuck at my puter working like most nights. Thursday nights always seem to be the one time I can watch an 8pm show. I like how they make deals in this show, and use money as opposed to Survivor where it's just your word. Betrayal (looking at you, Sean) takes an added meaning with that $1,000. Sean should give it back to try to make amends. Not that it would work. Az was smart to keep the Cheryl and cut Alexis. Alexis would hurt any team she ended up on, and Az didn't want her to end up on his, that's for sure.

its so hard to believe that the Survivor ppl made this show, it seems so low key, no sparks, dull editing , how many times do we have to see a rope get pulled?

How many challenges can we have that are basically the same? Row Row Row, row/run up a path, first teams get to chopchopchop and the other team is slowed down, a little, solve to find, look for a bit, find treasure. I was disappointed that JD didn't get a black dot, but I certainly think Alexis needed to leave. I loved that she took her 4 votes as for her instead of to save Cheryl. Azymuth doing ok except for the accent.

This may have already been discussed but where do they keep their money? In a money bag under their bunk? What's to keep a pirate from stealing another's money bag?

Kappy, I think that one of the "cool twists" ::rolls eyes:: is that they CAN steal one another's $. We'll see how they pull that off, I'm sure. I'm glad there is something to watch on Thursday nights, but if I wasn't home, I wouldn't care whether I remembered to tape it or not. This ain't Survivor, that's for sure. Sea summed it up so well with her description of the show. Bleh

I actually think I remember reading that they CAN'T steal money from one another. I like the bribing concept, AND I like that the teams are made up by random drawing. This is not an edge-of-your-seat show, but I find it as entertaining as most other TV fare.

The bribing aspect was fun to watch and I agree that JD should have gotten a black spot. Not giving him one makes him think he still has some sort of power. psst: I'm a Titan fan too

We've tried, I mean really tried to get into this show. With just a few exceptions this show is boring. The challenges are really nothing but a foot race with a little water mixed in and, except for the snake pit, are almost identical. It's getting to the point where the show will be one of those "ain't got nothing better to do" shows rather than a "got to see it" shows for us. Not going to build my evening chores around this show anymore.

I will continue to watch to see how it plays out but this show certainly doesn't have me longing for Thursday nights...luckily BB is just around the corner. Thought it was smart of Azmyth to share the wealth but it certainly didn't endear him to Jay (since it cut what Jays share would be). And what was up with the British accent? I also thought Cheryl did a good job of defending herself and made some great points (I bet she's good in court).

I don't think Sean voted for Alexis. Weren't there nine pirates voting? Jay needed five votes to get Cheryl out. If Sean was the "swing vote" (meaning his vote would set Cheryl or Alexis adrift), then maybe he copped out and voted for Laurel? Azmyth's accent was a bit freaky. And even when he kept getting called out on it he kept up with it. Not sure that's a good move... irritate your crew and they'll not want to help you stay as captain. No matter how much you share the booty.

There were only 8 voting and I think Sean was the swing vote to keep it from being a tie. Some of the women seemed to nod when Cheryl was talking so maybe one of them switched...does CBS reveal who voted for who (like they do for Survivor)?

LOL, was anyone reminded of Lex (yet again) when Jay said that Sean was dead to him because of his vote?

Am I nuts? I thought Jay totally wanted Cheryl to stay--as he wanted to be loyal to JoeDon. Yet everyone here is saying Jay wanted to get rid of her. Am I hallucinating???

Julie he said he wanted Cheryl gone because he had no deal with her as he did with JoeDon. In fact it was Jay who recommended to the capt that she be black spotted instead of JoeDon. In fact, if I remember correctly Jay is the one who picked all three that got black spots and he picked all women!

Oh, thanks Jan! Yes, Jay did pick all three, so it all makes sense now!

I am not liking Cheryl, she comes off like she thinks she is so much better than the others. I have to agree the show is a little bit slow but hoping it gets better, either way, I will watch.
