Well,
I watch The Amazing Race too so I was a little disappointed to see the twins at the beginning of the show last night. Was hoping for all unknowns (except for Off His Rocker) as we talked about above. By the end I was doing better........:D
I know. And there are going to be two former Survivors on Amazing Race! I don't like it when they do that.

I don't watch Amazing Race, so they were "unknown" to me, but they shouldn't cast people who already have been on other reality shows. Give other nobodies a chance! But I'm glad she
got out, she and her sister annoy me already!
I thought the premiere was ok, it was only the first episode, but still can't wait how it all plays out :)

They were very good on Amazing Race. (Not good enough, though! ;-D) I agree, in their case, they've already had 2 chances.

Lol I thought it was smart in their part to
to vote her out because she's been on this type of thing before, so she knows how it "works"
Yes, but she was right when she said they were different type games. There is much less social strategy to AR, they just have to follow their clues faster than the other teams to move on. But I thought it was probably their best move, too...although I do think she would have helped them in the challenges.

Ahh, this armchair quarterbacking is fun, isn't it?!? ;-D

This is the first time ever in the history of Survivor that...
the player I found to be the most annoying got voted off immediately. Usually the players I want to see gone arn't voted off until much later in the season. Sometimes they even make it to the final three :(

I pretty much like all the players this season. I didn't think I'd like John but it looks like he will be a team player so I like him too :) Do any of y'all have a favorite player yet?
I was kinda surprised at him right off the bat too, since I had him pegged as the troublemaker. But did you see the preview at the end? I don't know if they were snippets all from next week or throughout the season, but there were some very unsavory moments featuring John there.

I don't understand Exile Island :umm:

I'm glad you mentioned Exile Island, nbnp. I'm not sure I get it either. You get voted off, but not to Exile Isle, but forever. That's new isn't it?

Yes, the previews for the next episode make it look like the players aren't playing together well :) Lots of anger towards players who are (I guess mistreating) other player's partners. I'm real curious to find out why John's g/f feels deceived. I don't remember any players in past seasons getting angry enough to punch another player. Maybe someone will this year.
