I don't like the switch to a free for all, guys vs girls just doesn't work. Every time they try to "level" the playing field it makes for boring TV (puzzles) or almost always goes way in the girls favor.

Need to have a guy winner and a girl winner or keep the teams.

they just did this a couple of seasons ago.

basically, zach was kicking everyone's arse and then the final challenge after a ton of physical stuff was a puzzle. zach got like a 15-30 second head start on cara maria, who then won, even though her total time was much worse than zach's.

it's just fricking stupid. have a male and female winner, there is no reason not to. you simply cannot even up the physical aspect of things in regards to gender.

Glad bear is gone, glad Kyle won.

Bear has been sitting there for an elimination layup for weeks. There's basically no more gimmes at all anymore.

I like how it's now 3 vs 3 on the guys side: hunter, Wes, Kyle vs Paulie, Turbo, and Theo. Also like how Wes basically called Mattie and unstoppable force for the girls.

I don't know if the turbo stuff was an act or it was just some crazy Dagistani/soviet union/Turkish whatever psycho shite kicking in.

Hunter was also clearly drunk when he started talking shite.

It's kind of bizarre. Apparently wes, turbo, JP, and Hunter are all friends after the show, if you saw that photo Wes put on social media not long ago.

I also think Wes is about to get pissed and go on the offensive, too. I think he knows he barely survived going in this week.

There's really nobody left to piss off and the sides are set.

Seemed like just drunk guy stuff that Theo was egging on, and Turbo got bent out of shape. I didn’t understand everyone acting like Hunter was scared. Dude literally held his ground as this crazy person was in his face.

Would like to point out that after people have been talking all season about the UK alliance, they only have two members left. That alliance hasn’t made an important move all season. Of the two left, Theo is an Olympic level athlete who was partnered with a good female competitor. Georgia was partnered with Wes’ top ally.

Wes tonight had the quote of the season. “Georgia is crying her eyes out, while Bear is running off the Killing Floor to call his cousin.” That woman is a damn mess.

Absolutely.

I'd say a close second is the Captain Jack Sparrow line from Zach.

Georgia must cringe very second she watches this in retrospect. She blubbered like a 6 yr old that just fell off her bike and he didn't even acknowledge her.

I laughed when Nany even called out the Kyle/Paulie beef. Even the people in the house are over it.

I hope we get to see Turbo in a physical challenge on the Killing Floor just once. That dude is scary. I wouldn't say Hunter was scared, but he definitely was disarmed a little in that shouting match. He presents an interesting problem.
It will be interesting to see how the guys try to eliminate him before the final.

I don't think Turbo will go into the Killing Floor all season. No one is going to vote him in because they all have bigger fish to fry. Turbo is at least the third ally for every single guy left except Hunter. And absolutely no one is going to pick Turbo if they are sent in and have to pick an opponent. The only exception I can think of is at the very end if there is a puzzle.

Turbo isn’t huge but he is physically intimidating. His accent makes it feel as though he has killed people without thinking twice. He is athletic and smart. He won Survivor twice which says a lot. People don’t wanna frick with him. I think he can win it all now that he isn’t on a team. People will go for Kyle, Hunter, Wes or Theo before him I think.

Hunter is too dumb to win it all.

I'd bet on Turbo or Paulie to win it all.

Although if the final is old school with a lot of endurance then Theo is the man to beat.

I doubt that it will be though since it's one winner and not one of each gender.

Turbo somehow may be the best competitor and most protected politically. Pretty sure he has been working with Wes and Hunter all season. Even after the fight with Hunter he didn’t say Hunter’s name. Now he has the deal with Paulie.

I didn't see it like that at all, I definitely felt he got scared once Turbo got pissed.

Hunter went from literally saying he'd kick Turbo's arse and a few other things, then the moment Turbo got mad, Hunter never said that again, and didn't say anything else other than "i'm not scared of you." It felt like he knew at the point Turbo snapped, he better not say anything else and just kept repeating himself over and over because he knew he didn't want to say anything else demeaning to Turbo because he wasn't confident in himself if Turbo got truly pissed.

Then once they left the original spot of the confrontation and all the dudes and all the producers were involved, meaning it was very obvious there would be no real fight, then Hunter all of a sudden got a little more active.

I honestly felt that he was drunk and popping off, then when he realized Turbo was mad and not fricking around, Hunter had an oh shite moment and wanted no part of that dude. That's how I saw it.

I know plenty of dudes like Hunter. Tough guys who can handle themselves, and even when they know they will probably get their asses kicked, still won’t back down. Dude could meet up Brock Lesnar on the street in this exact situation and say “I’m not scared of you”.

Hunter was just talking shite. He didn’t expect Turbo to react like that. But, he never flinched or even moved backed when Turbo got in his face. He literally stood his ground. I don’t see how telling someone you aren’t scared of them is different than the shite he was talking earlier. He was straight up saying “I’m not scared of you”.

I was actually sad to see Bear go, which made me feel bad. As annoying as he is, he’s solid tv. And he’s actually pretty good at the challenges. And Georgia is a total fricking idiot. I wish I could sit next to her on the couch when she watches the episodes air.

I’m still fully on Team Kyle, and he is the best person they’ve added to the show in a decade. He’s legit good, and hilarious. And he just is there for fun and all that, but then can turn on the strategy when he needs to. He’s also an idiot at times. Just all around entertaining.

The Turbo/Hunter shite was just weird. I like Turbo but get the feeling that he plays up this robotic, psycho shite for the cameras. I hope I’m wrong and I hope he’s a psychotic murderer. But I just had a bad vibe about him this time.

And agree with most that they better not straight up hinder guys versus girls. Make that shite fair and separate the genders. It’s bad tv when you don’t.

Kyle is great, his interviews are the best behind CT.

Agree to disagree. I think telling someone directly you could kick their arse and then when they get up and are ready to go and literally the only thing you can say 20 times in a row is "i'm not scared" ...I feel like those are 2 completely different statements.

When Turbo was up and ready to go, Hunter certainly wasn't still saying he would win the fight, just that he's not scared to fight, big difference IMO and kinda showed he probably was a little scared and just didn't want any part of Turbo.

I really wish they wouldn't have let everyone in the peanut gallery yell out the answers in that last elimination.

I agree with you.

Now while he wasn't actually scared of Turbo, he wanted no part in him either. You can tell his is a bit intimidated by Turbo. Normally Hunter would get aggressive in those types of situations and get up in their face.

One look at Turbo and all I can think of is this fudgepacker probably knows a million different way to kill you and get rid of your body. I love his addition to the challenge.

I want to see Casper in one of these challenges but they'd probably have to pay him to come on.
