Cheryl seemed to have forgotten that when she was an Officer, she didn't help the crew with the hard work, didn't offer to share her money, and hung out in the Captain's quarters, isolating herself.
Bye bye Cheryl.
Unfortunately, the "Lost background people" will soon take over the show, and we'll all be like...
Huh, who is this, where'd they come from.
Like Nikki and Paulo.
Big Brother 8 can't get here fast enough.

They really missed the mark on this show. All the build up about which dead pirate buried the treasure and what they were known for and they don't use it. Big whoop the guy liked to look in the mirror at himself, so let's make a reflection of an X for them to hold their map up to...Why not a mirror maze or something like that? How about the dead pirate that liked codes, why not a coded map that they have to figure out. It's too simple to follow the map they are given, there is not enough to do. Both DH and I are bored with the show. I actually FFd through Pirates Court to see who got booted. I just am not emotionally invested it's boring.

I just can't get into this show. It seems so obviously scripted and the people are NOT actors so its very amatuerish. Also, I'm not really sure exactly what happens if there is a mutiny because there hasn't been one.

I'm not that thrilled with this show either. Not sure I'll watch it when they change the time/day after BB starts unless it gets more interesting. The challenges are lame and so are their "sabotages."

I tried to watch for the first time last night. It was like a bad version of Survivor. The format was too similar in more than 1 way! urgh. It was hard to watch even though I really tried. :-(

What or who is the "Lost background people" ?

We watch until BB comes on, but it is a losing show and I agree with whoever said the pardon was to ensure JD was left in the show. Too bad, <100>

Nynana, it's a reference to the show LOST, where the fans griped that it was all about the main characters, that we never got to know about the extras in the background. When the producers introduced two of those 'background characters' to appease the fans, the fans hated the characters, and 'Nikki and Paolo' were killed off just about as quickly as they appeared.

Does anyone else think that Sean looks like a young George Clooney - like when he was on the Roseanne show?

Man, sometimes when he was in the confessional thing he really reminded me of Clooney.

I guess it's a matter of opinion and expectation. I love this show and have not seen the fizzle.

I miss The Mole. Now that was a clever, entertaining show!

I don't hate Pirate Masters and I will watch it until the end of the season. It's not as good as I hoped. My biggest problem with it is that it seems so obviously scripted. They also don't seem to be able to fit enough into one hour. They don't seem to include enough footage of the cast relationships and strategy. Survivor does it so why can't Pirate Masters?

yes it was. I loved the Mole. That Last season Sucked so bad it didnt even end, they pulled it.

Typingfool. I actually FFd through Pirates Court to see who got booted

Oh I'd go back and listen to the dialogue. Based on his performance I'd expect to see JD starring in a soap opera soon.

(well, other than the mumbling LOL)

and Capt Louie's Spontaneous booming laugh was sounding rather strained at Take 9....Try it again and this time Louder!
(my theory of why It sounded fake)

They didn't pull The Mole permanently. They stopped it for a while and then showed the entire series later. It was a little slow at first but it was great by the end.

Anybody else glad that Azmyth's English accent disappeared with his captain's hat and coat?

I wonder if you mean Celebrity Mole.. even that didn't suck THAT bad!

In the US all seasons of The Mole ran to completion and it was only cancelled because they lost Anderson Cooper as host, to CNN.

Roxip.. count me in as happy at the loss of
"accent"!

Even the most idiotic show can be good. It's all about the casting. Remember My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance. On paper that couldn't have looked good.

The blonde drama queen was on Treasure Hunters, I think. Another show I would like to see again!!

The ship is the star of the show.

They say that they like Louie, so maybe I am missing something. They didn't show him doing the laugh so much this week and he looked good in the Captain's Uniform.

I can't seem to pick a favorite and if they got cancelled in the middle, I can't say I would care.

What I find interesting about BB and Survivor is the interaction between the contestants--the fights, the promises (often lies) to "have your back," and that stuff, because you get to like or detest the participants.

This show has a lot of confessionals, which seem overly staged, and little real interaction. Also, on Survivor, the tribal councils are a zillion times better than the voting discussions at the end of this show.
