I liked the switchup tonight where they split the tribe in half. That paid off its potential to mess up everyone's voting strategy. Also liked that they sent the losers straight off to council w/o any time for plotting. Anything that introduces more randomness into the show is always welcome, at least in this parish. Was not so crazy about Jeff Probst asking leading questions and basically giving everyone a forum to announce how they were voting. Hell, if you're go halfway down the road, might as well go all the way and really give them ZERO chance to drop hints about how they're planning to vote. Not too happy with the results of the vote. I liked Michelle okay but mostly I'm sorry to see her go cos she was part of the alliance with Earl and Yao who have provided pretty much all the highlights this season -- Yao with his mad geek skillz and Earl, among other things, for the scene where he created the Earl Island logo. I see from the coming attractions that Mookie is gonna have a go at Dreamz and I don't blame him. If Dreamz disliked Stacy as much as he said he did and if they both agreed they didn't want her as the 5th person in the final five, then tonight was the time to make a stand and change the game. One of the things I've long noticed on Survivor is that there are always contestants who talk a good game but, when offered the chance to take action and make something happen, they decline to step up and lead. As a side note, I'm not sure what Dreamz' strategy is. His vote against Michelle seems to align him with Alex and Edgardo. But telling Earl that Mookie's got the immunity idol runs counter to that. Oh well. It will either make sense eventually or it won't.
