Just Jack Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (BTW, where did ajzepp go? Miss ya, buddy!) Last I heard he was seen in an alley with a blood pressure cuff, some empty saline IV bags, and screaming "The microbes are coming!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Looks like Brandon did a lot of growing up since his last jaunt. No more God talk. No more Mr. Hantz Redemption.

WWVaBeach Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 This should be good. How about being voted out 1st twice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 This should be good. How about being voted out 1st twice? My sister has said that since there's been enough seasons, they should have a season of just people that were voted out 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in San Diego Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 My sister has said that since there's been enough seasons, they should have a season of just people that were voted out 1st. That's a good idea. Except for the person who gets voted out first in that series. A misfit on misfit island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope = I feel sorry for Brandon after last nights episode. He's going to need some help. I won't be surprised if he does not show up for the reunion show. And next week looks like they'll mix up the tribes. Still 14 people left and I don't think they have merged that large of a group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told my wife that I think he was off his meds. I'm not sure how long mood stabilizers work after you stop taking them but I think we just found out.

UConn James Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 I told my wife that I think he was off his meds. I'm not sure how long mood stabilizers work after you stop taking them but I think we just found out. I don't know if he was ever on any. "Survivor" does not require people to be cut off from Rx medications, all the way from contact lens solution to cholesterol meds. We just do not see it because it's not really pertinent to the game, and there's also legal medical privacy issues. If Brandon were on anything for a mental condition, he would have absolutely been able to take it. Judging from his first season's emotions where he was crying every five minutes and some of his related stories and the complete meltdown in last night's show, as I wrote above, I don't think he's ever had that kind of help. As someone who's been in that arena myself, he really needs help. And that's pretty obvious. Probst's quip question of "whether it's in the Hantz blood" is astute. As with everything, it's genetic and experience/environmental. He can't blame the game for it, he can't blame Philip. Philip is a pedantic jackass, sure. You can't do things like that in public --- nevermind on national teevee --- and expect people in real life to not keep a wary eye on you or not want anything to do with you. How can you behave anything like that and keep friends or a job? You can't. From my earlier comment, it really looks like Brandon's father and Russell got into his head prior to this season's taping. Whereas he was a weak personality tag-along/coattail-riding Jesus-boy last time, it was either ingrained in him or he ingrained himself to be the 180* from that. The extreme poles aren't good places to spend your life, tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a tweet from Russell in this article... http://tv.yahoo.com/news/-survivor--caramoan--recap--brandon-hantz-breaks-down-150954653.html?cache=clear I'm just gonna guess he was not pleased with how it went down. Brandon has his own Youtube channel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philly McButterpants Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Let's all agree to keep the Hantz family off of television going forward. Russell was entertaining the first time out, but since then, they've proven to be hormone addled wackos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more surprising, people that think Russell should be on Dancing With The Stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajzepp Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) Nice little blindside. It's pretty satisfying when one of the little people start thinking they can take over the game, only to wind up having to watch Probst snuff their flame. Long live the Specialist!!!! (and Kudos to that crying lady who actually DID something this time...) Edited April 6, 2013 by ajzepp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Seriously? This whole "Dawn breaks down and may leave" bit that has been hyped since last week, took only 1.5 minutes of the episode, and it was over in the first 5 minutes of the show?
