Just caught up on a handful of episodes and i agree with most everyone. This group is quite the assembly of morons. Its almost unwatchable at this point, seeing these people act like sheep. Instead of making a big move and trying to win, they hang on and settle for 5th/6th/7th. I lost any and all respect for Christina/Tarzan/Alicia. I'm fully in Tryozan's court for the rest fo the game. I wish the producers would tell him where the idols were to mix things up.
Rico, kim isn't smart. She's just the smartest retard. Much liek brenda a few seasons back, she's not nearly as smart as she thinks she is. She's not She'd get schooled by any of the real players, like Parv/Russell/Boston Rob, and dozens of others to play the game before her.
I think the majority of the problem comes from survivor casting the frat boy and sorority girl types. I know everyone wants eye candy on the show, but none of these early 20-somethings actually have anything to offer outside of their looks. I'm gladly take a nice mix of ages like the early seasons, with some real strategy. I hope these are some fixes, btu i don't know how. Maybe force the tribes to change every episode? what about making the show entirely individual and doing away with the tribes? Or perhaps, what about giving each survivor their own personal immunity idol at the outset. You can't give it away, and you know everyone has one, its a matter of figuring out when to play it.
