How many next times do these people think they're going to get? It's so frustrating. Jay must've been so afraid to blow his cover as a triad loyalist that he wouldn't even approach Ben with the mutiny idea. He has never been afraid to try to persuade people before, but this time he left it up to Louie. Well, of course Ben wasn't going to turn. He had no way of knowing Jay was also willing to go along with it. While I don't care for Azmyth, I do respect his honesty about why he isn't "changing it up." Why fix what isn't broken? He's getting richer every round, so why would he want to risk putting Jay or Ben on an opposing team for a future challenge? My biggest frustration is with the crew. After the challenge Nessa said she kind of wished they had lost. Well, duh! Why the heck don't these people get it through their heads to throw the challenge when they're on Azmyth's team? This was their golden opportunity. Joe Don and the rest would've known to black spot the triad if they had won. The crew should've done anything necessary to sabotage. It would be worth giving up one challenge's pay to get rid of the huge threat posed by the triad. Jupiter was pretty much asking for it. Knowing everyone wanted to mutiny last week, she chose to stand in their way. At that point she only had the triad on her side, and instead of going to them she chose to alienate them as well by openly lecturing Azmyth about changing things up. Even if she had never mentioned the word mutiny, she had to know she was making enemies of the two officers she was suggesting he replace. She should've known she couldn't afford to do anything that might earn her the black spot, since she had already made clear to the crew that she opposed their agenda. As for the ghost team, they showed why they were out of the game. If they really wanted to win they would've all been sweeping that river, searching like mad. Instead they chose to just stand around moaning about John losing the key while waiting for him to find it. And nobody was watching what he did with it in the first place. Equally ridiculous.

I don't understand why the crew didn't make sure to lose, either. So they'd miss one week of treasure, but they'd get rid of Azymth and three of them would make officer--pretty good odds.

Thank you, Urgrace, for that explanation. But I'm with Curlyq - I just can't figure out why the others seem to be letting Azmyth get richer and richer.

Thanks to Urgrace for the episode recap! I had forgotten that they changed nights and totally missed it this week (argh!) This is a great show, I really enjoy it - I knew I'd find the scoop here!

The show has officially walked the plank and off of the CBS schedule. They're dumping the remainig episodes on CBS.com, every Tuesday, starting this week.

Well, I will give them credit for at least allowing us some way to see how it finishes out!

Argh! It's hard to believe that they will get any better ratings with some replacement. People seem to love reruns.

Well that sucks because so far any episodes from a U.S. network put on their website I can't get in Canada. :-(

I'm not set up for my computer. Maybe someone can keep us up to date as they show them? I would like to know if the crew finally wises up or if Azy is going to take it all. I think out of the remaining crew... I would like to see Christa or Laurel win. Thanks to whoever will post info on this.

<self-modded>. <*&^%???>. <self-modded again>. Pirate Master. The Nine. Studio 60. Drive. On the Lot. ... Is it just me, or is network programming starting to feel like a really miserable speed dating experience?? Every time you start a quick date with someone and you think it's going really well, inevitably it ends suddenly with a pathetic "It's not you, it's me" line??? Never mind they're being oh. so. kind to honor the fans they have by putting the remaining shows up on a RESTRICTED ACCESS website that alienates a large portion of their audience because once you cross that 49th parallel, the content is not available. I'm throwing away my TV.

If you can't get the show, go to the other thread (the spoiler thread) and Episode 9 has been spelled out for you there by those that are able to get the video at CBS.

Well this sucks. Even though I CAN watch the show on my computer, I'm not so sure I WANT to! Good going CBS. Blech

Thanks Alaginger. The only problem is that I like to watch my TV, not read about it. It's not just CBS though. It's all the people who would rather watch re-runs than see any new shows.

Because the site wants to stop and start so much, I let it all download and then it worked fine. Pretty good epi.

Can those of you not in the US watch videos on YouTube without problems? Maybe someone will post it on YouTube? CBS sometimes puts stuff on there, so maybe they'll post the whole episode in segments for those outside the US?

Yeah, Darclyte, YouTube works for us here in Canada. For me, though, it's the principal of it, y'know? I pay for a cable package, I bought a nice TV, and I (foolishly) put my faith in the <bleeps> who produce the TV shows I want to watch. It's a slap in the face to us fans; as if the networks know that we don't really have a choice but to 1)put up with it or 2)turn off the TV. And we all know that society won't boycott the TV long enough to make a difference, so the networks get away with playing us like yo-yos and starting and stopping shows at their whim. I'm sick of it.

You know on the CBS Early show or some other CBS show, they had a "heads up on whats on CBS this evening" and Pirate Master was on that LIST FOR TONIGHT!! Imagine my surprise to get 48 hours, and you all already know it!!
