Yes to all of the above.
Each Survivor season begins and I think "Why am I still watching this?" And then, somehow, mid-season, sh*t like this happens and it's awesome.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Survivor people acted too dumbly for me to be totally into it. Randy and Corinne seemed to have forgotten that they sent Sugar to Exile twelve times. SHE HAS THE IDOL. Bob: RANDY IS ON THE JURY! YOU GAVE UP A FAKE IDOL AND A VOTE!

In re ANTM, the Fug Girls were unimpressed with the finale but glad to have their schedules cleared up. They've been having to choose among that, Bones and Pushing Daisies. Their comment?
What kind of monster expects you to choose between Tyra Banks, David Boreanez, and baked goods?

LOVED Survivor this week. In your FACE, dickwad! Also, I think Bob is going to play it off that he thought it WAS the real idol, so he was fooled too. I have a soft spot for Bob. And Kenny won immunity, which I also loved. Go, teeny, earnest little geek guy!

I agree Scrapppy. I assume that's why Bob voted for Susie. So that he would have deniability.
I'm glad to see that, based on the promo, the throwing away of the other idol comes up. It always bugged me that they seemed to have forgotten there was another idol out there somewhere.

To me, it looked like Bob is going to try and convince Corinne that the idol he gave Randy was the other idol from the beach. [Or rather, that he thought it was.]

My housemate desperately wants to believe that Bob makes another one and manages to convince Corinne that it's the one from the beach and to pull the same thing Randy did.

That would be pretty priceless.

Whoever woulda thought that Krystal, Kenny and Susie would become forces to be reckoned with--especially given how none of them are physical threats. Krystal LOOKS like a physical threat but she always folds in the challenges, so I am amazed any of them made it this long. It's why I love this show.

I think Crystal would be a physical threat (a) in a footrace (b) after a month of training (c) well-rested and well-fed. But under these circumstances, she's probably just barely getting enough calories to stay conscious (and being a professional sprinter doesn't mean you can throw a ball or walk a balance beam, so in many challenges her skills just don't apply).
That said, she's probably feeling pretty good about her decision not to tell anyone she used to be an Olympian.
