I like Turbo but get the feeling that he plays up this robotic, psycho shite for the cameras.


Would be hilarious if, at the reunion, he dropped the accent and revealed that he’s basically a Turkish Shane.

Really not a fan of all these timed challenges where we have no clue how fast they completed it.

Episodes like tonight are why John and his crew always hated Wes. His game is manipulative and kind of weasley when he gets the chance, turbo saw it first hand. He obviously likes Wes, but knows it's just stupid to get drunk on one weeks worth of power.

The play here I thought was for the girls to take out Cara. Not only is she a huge threat to them in the final (despite what Wes says, and I know she's not as good as many think in finals) but she's very experienced.

If they take out Cara, you also break up the most rock solid voting block in the whole game.

Kyle has to be gut punched by that vote.

But in saying all that, I think Georgia picks Cara nonetheless. Could be dead wrong, but I think she's of the mind, I'm going home, so let's go big. You also have to think how much does she really want to be there now that bear is gone, so she will throw caution to the wind a bit.

If it's those two, I'd say it's a toss up, too.

It's still amazing that they're all basically playing a game not to piss off paulie. He has Cara and Ninja on his side, so I guess I see the point, but damn.

Also, what the hell is hunter doing?? Is he really going home because he knows he's not as good as he thinks he is, or does he just not want to get embarrassed in a final if he makes it that far by all the puzzles and running?

I like that the girls are tired of Cara's shite. Just from watching her on tv its obvious how she can't get over Kyle and Paulie is changing her attitude. Nany and Davonne see it just like all the viewers do. I think Georgia calls her out too.

They did so well all season keeping it Daily Challenge / Drama / Elimination, and now they did their first to be continued. Hopefully this isn't a common theme for the episodes moving forward this season.

Yeah I think Georgia calls out Cara too especially since they saved it for next week. She knows she’s probably going home, so she’s thinking let’s go big and maybe I’ll catch lightning in a bottle and take her out.

The worst elimination challenge in the shows history. Who ever thought of that should be fired

I can't decide if I hate Dee or Ninja more at this point. Dee seems like a total bitch who can't really run or swim, and ninja is maybe even a bigger bitch, who thinks she's a guy I guess, acting like some kind of cock jock, but, in reality, seems kind of scared.

Turbo knew the tantrum was a bullshite, act, and totally shut her down. It was beautiful. But still, dude can't start crying when he feels betrayed and then talk about how much of a badass he is.

Kyle has taken so much more mental stress bullshite this season and hasn't come close to breaking down. He just knows that he's the only one who has his own back now.

As for next week I'm almost 100% positive Theo is in tbe elimination from past previews, therefore Paulie doesn't pick himself go in.

I also think Theo then picks Kyle.

His reasoning is Probably two-fold: one Hunter has a huge leverage advantage on him, even if he's not in the greatest mindset, and two: Theo probably feels that if he can win, he can spare hunter so he can run against him in a final.

Hope Kyle wins, the guy has heart, but he may be too screwed physically at this point to basically outmuscle an Olympic sprinter.

his reasoning would more likely be Kyle is hurt and can barely walk right now. Kyle is probably the tallest guy left on the challenge outside of Theo who is 6'5". Hunter is only 5'8" according to his FAMU baseball profile (he was terrible btw ). If you meant brute strength, then sure.

Nany should legitimately feel like she got screwed. Terrible elimination.

In the last two episodes, Wes has been in two tribunals, one of those an endurance/strength comp with probably the weakest female runner left, and won over 3 of the 4 people left who hated him the most. That’s pretty good.

I’m out on Dee. Ninja was 100% in the wrong. I have no idea how Dee convinced herself and Ninja that Turbo was yelling at Ninja and acting stupid. Ninja literally threw a child like tantrum, which looked even worse when they finished top 3. Turbo and Wes had the same strategy, and Ninja didn’t trust him. Was none of Dee’s business.

They were doing so good all season with Daily challenge / drama / nomination / elimination. And now they are back to their cliff-hanger shite from last season. Completely throws off the momentum of each episode. The eliminations lose their punch because you forgot the build up from the week prior.

Paulie getting angry for someone picking his girlfriend is hilarious. Those two are the epitome of a middle school relationship.

That was a good episode. I have no idea where Natalie's temper tantrum came from. Wow. That was the best tantrum I've seen in a few seasons. Turbo is one of my favorite challenge competitors ever, and he just started. He's just so genuine/black and white/tough/ and strong.

If Paulie doesn't get down there with Kyle, that would be a massive letdown.

The two competitors for this elimination were spoiled in the season trailer.

I won't say who for spoiler reasons, but if you want to see it, it's at the 45 second mark of this YouTube clip. (Not sure who wins though).

Never would have guessed Turbo was so sensitive. People might be able to get in his head in future eliminations and use that to beat him if they can't do it physically.

Paulie won't volunteer against Kyle because he's all talk. I think him and Kyle will be teammates on a future rivals season and they'll get along just fine.

That elimination was total BS. No way Nany's game should be decided by someone else like that. Agree with the rest of the posts Ninja sucks. Can't believe Dee tried to spin it on Turbo.
