ER is kind of a non-issue with me. I've seen people play his game many, many times. I don't understand why they advertised him as the biggest villian Survivor ever had. IMO, Russell is just a regular player. I think the most hated Survivor would have to be Coach from last year. Don't y'all think he was worse to watch than Russell?

I find for me personally the difference between Coach and Russell is intent. Coach was arrogant (and clearly delusional) but I didn't find him mean or malicious. Russell is (again, just my opinion) both. And a huge bully to boot. Throw in condescending and belittling toward women...

Throw in condescending and belittling toward women... That in particular bothers me -- A LOT ! Usually I can let that kind of thing go, but not with ER.

I may have to disagree with you Roxip (and I really, really hate to disagree with you). Coach constantly referring to Sierra as a "cancer" was a real turn-off. He also referred to Candace as a "cancer," but she went out pretty quickly.

Russel seems to big talk to the cameras. He doesn't seem to act that way toward the women or others there. So far he hasn't lost his temper with anyone in camp. Maybe he is just all talk.

To me "coach" was just an embarrassment.

Didn't Jeff try to sell Coach to us big time as well?

ok, here's a question: who was more condescending and belittling to women so far: ER or Ben? Because I think Ben was more, especially during his TC's.

Love him or hate him ppl will remember Coach for years, unlike half of the rest of the players last season. Same will go for Russell. I dont think JP tries to sell us anyone I think he just sees things from a producer point of view. Coach got ppl talking, ppl talking = ratings. Same thing for Russell. Same thing for players that were really good and loved by viewers such as James. I bet Shambo and James would have been bffs out there, they both have the same work ethic

I don't think he owns the cemetery. Lexie, I always love a good debate. I think we can both agree that Coach and ER are both people we would like never to see on our television screens again!

I just watched all the episodes so far On Demand. Had to fast forward thru most of it. Dull people & boring challenges. Will not watch any more of it.

ER is somewhat of a non issue for me too. Don't like him as a person. As a player, he is good. He goes all out in challenges and is always playing the game strategically in his mind. He is there to play and to win, so, I like that part. I don't necessarily think everything he does is a good move strategically though. I'd rather have him there than someone who does nothing. Most of his degrading stuff or maybe all of it, has been to the viewers only. I can't wait to see what the other Russell does in response to his entire tribe voting against his wishes. I think leadership has gone to his head a bit. Interesting dilemma, vote out the one that does nothing at camp or vote out the worst in challenges. You have to work at camp to have food and water to be strong for challenges. Yaz's attitude about not working at camp so they couldn't find something to hold against her wasn't good. What if everyone said that? Nothing would get done at camp.

Yaz was just manufacturing an excuse to be lazy! She was completely out of her element there and unwilling to learn -

James certainly did not own the cemetery. He gave his occupation as "grave digger"...if I recall correctly. He was a sweetheart!!!
