That might have been the best tribal council all season...Noura is simply nuts! However having said that I suspect the Survivor people will have her back multiple times because her kind of crazy makes good television.
I'm not sure I understand - she is usually very strong in competitions and doesn't she come across as someone very flexible (is she a yoga instructor or something)? She was falling all over the course - it almost looked like she was deliberately trying to slow Dan down.
So glad Karishma is gone but now those poor people at Ponderosa have to live with her victim attitude. She is so not aware of the fact that the reason that you are alienated from others is because you do it to yourself!

Yes, while Karishma's husband talked about what a strong woman she is, she laid her head on his chest like a little child.
I loved the 12 year old boy being there.

I think they kept Noura to keep her vote for this tribal. I did hear them say she would be "next".

Why would they have to keep Karishma, when they have Noura as a goat..... She seems drama driven, not strategic driven in the game.

I feel like Boston Robs and Sandra’s contributions have fallen sort of flat this season. Maybe I was hoping for more interaction or something. And at this point I’d say at least half the contestants know they are on the island,are we suppose to believe they didn’t tell anyone else about them. Seems silly that those two have to stay hidden during tribal council.

Kooklie, because Noura is not a goat. Two individual immunities in a row, with the potential of winning more, and she certainly entertained the jury last night.
Karishma is such a sad sack and bursts out with her her takes of some at every single opportunity, it seems.
I think the jury members have a large enough group so they can tolerate Karishma, or maybe just lock her in a room. I don't envy them, for sure.
I wonder if she was voted most likely to kill the joy in any room in high school?

Yeah, maybe goat is not the right work. To me, Noura is annoying a lot of those who potentially will be on the jury based on her various dramatic antics in the game. She seems to be just stirring up problems, not being strategic at all. The girl just cannot keep a secret.

For some reason I got creeped out by them having Dan's son there. He can go next.

I can’t understand why you would find that creepy. He seemed like a nice kid and it must have been a wonderful adventure for him.

But Noura, goat, annoying or whatever, is an individual immunity threat and at f3 or f4 could win II and choose who stays or competes to stay and then it would be hard to use the I dragged her to the end card.
And if she keeps winning, she could win big.
She is still uncontrollable (and I include self control).
Karishma is more annoying (predictable, too).
I did not associate creepiness with Dan's son?

Elaine committed the biggest blunder of the season. There's no way anyone was going to vote for her after Noura outed her having a HII. Had she used it on Karishma (I know... I know), Noura would have been voted out and Elaine's group would have the numbers. Now they are on the bottom and will be picked off one by one. That would have been a power move.

I’m enjoying this season far more than I thought I would!
I will say that the Rob and Sandra hiding thing is tilting over to comical at this point though.

I enjoy them each week. I do think it's been unfair that not everyone had a chance to go there though

Honestly, they need to have a Rob/Sandra "confessional" every show, so we can see their thoughts on the game!

Yes! If not on air, have them record at the time and blog later. I love their reactions. It could be as great as Pillow Talk is for 90 Day Fiance!

I agree, Seamonkey, they are missing out on a great opportunity... their sense of humor and knowledge of the game would be a big hit.

With the exception of Dan's continued not respecting Kellee's personal space... and Missy/Elizabeth using it as gameplay... this season has been great!!
I listened to Rob Cesternino's recap with Peih-Gee Law... she made an interesting comment regarding Lynn Spielman (she used to do casting)... anyway apparently Lynn and Jeff would disagree about who to cast. Lynn wanted the young, "beautiful" and single ppl... while Jeff wanted the "Fan"... ppl that knew and loved the game... regardless of their age/marital status/body shape...
Thought that was interesting.

I’ve noticed with the exception of Aaron that this season is more of a fan based group versus a beautiful people group.

It's not surprising and to his credit that Jeff wanted "fans" to be cast. He's such a great fan of the game himself and I think that his love of the game is a big factor in Survivor's continued success for so many seasons.

I didn't find Dan's son creepy I just thought it was kind of amusing, because Dan probably wanted to hug the breath out of his son, but maybe a Dad can't really do that with a 13 year old because parents are ALWAYS embarrassing kids that age.

it is never a good idea to win the family challenge, games have been lost because of it

Maybe it seems that every tribal is a blindside because they edit out the negative stuff the loser said/did?

Sometimes it’s hard to explain and translate feelings into words.
It’s nice you’re still enjoying the show and TVCH.
