I have rather a lot of admiration for Maya -- it takes a lot to realize that you're on the wrong path, no matter what it potentially offers, and to walk away.

ITA. This seemed to be the point Seth Aaron was making, too.

Mila, I just don't know about. The question of "Do we want to see more from her?" keeps coming up, and I'm with the judges there - I liked her a lot in the beginning, but I feel like she just on the wrong side of the fuzzy line between "strong POV" and "can only do one thing." And so many of her clothes just plain don't fit.

Finally caught Survivor. Don't get the logic of Jerri or Coach at all, especially with what Russell pulled last week.

They've also gotten rid of the strongest player with (I assume) at least a couple of challenges to go. I hope they get nothing but puzzles.

I bet Jerri is doing what Russell's team last season was doing:

thinking that Russell is one of the few people over there who people would dislike more than her. If she makes the merge, no way is anyone going to vote for him in the final.

I think that's a dangerous game to play with this crowd - these are all players who've played before and like the game enough to come back for more. They're much more likely to vote for the asshole-but-good-player than a typical jury would be.

Hey, season 2 of Top Chef Masters starts this week!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I agree Jessica. However, even Rob said Russell's personality is a turn off...so he could be that odious.

I still don't think he went near the finale of this season based on his reaction at the finals last season.

OMG, the Cowboys just rock! I love them.

Once they were checked in - I just didn't care about the rest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. All I want is for the cowboys to win.

Last with a speed bump to first? Should be insta-win! I love their attitude. I also absolutely love that they were the only team to do the flags. Their can-do attitude is what will see them through to the end.
