Very good interview BUT Brandon is still not facing up to the Mykala episodes. What was he so afraid of? What was he afraid would happen if he did not remove that tempatation? I found this very disturbing about Brandon. In regards to his familly relationships....that (the Hantz family) is a whole family of short men with "short man syndrome" which explains why emotions are laughed at, frowned upon, and ridiculed.

I'm proud and supportive of Brandon if he is trying to break the cycle of the emotional abuse he has experienced in his family since day 1. And, if he does that with the strength and power of God, then more power to him. It is a vicious cycle and at least he seems to be trying to rid himself of their intolerances. He may have fallen short with the Mikayla incident because he does not fully understand yet the amazing grace and power of his God. However, he can only grow and learn.......maybe my new name for him will be "Grasshopper".

Read Brandon's interview and I had a question. He talked about getting home and his family not being supportive of him. Well, they filmed this thing awhile ago and when he got home his family was not supposed to know if he did good or bad. So I just don't get it. They didn't know how he did until they watched it on tv...like us...or did they???? I think it is just a bunch of made up comments to try to get us to pull for him and want a Russell vs Brandon show...which is NOT what we want. CBS....this is soooooo fake!

I'll second that, Auntiemike. I admire his efforts to become a better person. Yes he may have fallen short or been confused about some things but he is making a great effort.

Jimmer, I'm afraid it is an uphill battle so he will need all the help he can get. I'm just happy he has a hire power to call on. He is not alone. I do like his "bounce back, positive" spirit.

I don't know how much people tell their family. Certainly his Dad had a pretty good idea. Maybe Brandon talked in general about trying to play a "Christian" game and they disapproved. It does look like they may be laying the groundwork for a "Hantz" season.

His dad was around a few of the others too, they probably told him a lot. I won't watch another season with Russell, unless I know he's been kicked out. I can't help but feel quite maternal over Brandon though. It's clear he's trying to be a good man, he just has a lot of baggage to work through and a lot of people around him who just aren't helping.

Wow, Albert is really delusional! And Rick is still just a nice, quiet guy.

That was my thought about Albert as well, Merrysea.
