How funny is it that everyone- EVERYONE!- loooooves JT. Next week- drinking game. Drink if someone professes his or her love for JT or if Coach says something quasi-mystical.
Man, I really thought with Stephen's Wizard comment during his vote it was gonna be Coach going home.

Dude, do you want me to black out before the first commercial break??
Jeff blogs about Coach:
I've hosted Survivor for 18 seasons, and up until now there has only been one person I thought might be worthy of their own show and that was Boston Rob. That is, up until now.
I am seriously considering a show called The Dragon Slayer. It's about a guy who lives in a world that exists solely in his own mind, and thus is invisible to the outside world. While it is the year 2009, the Dragon Slayer dresses like he's just returned from one of those Renaissance fairs where he's just finished eating a turkey leg the size of a small dog. We'll simply follow his daily life, where every time he leaves his home offers the potential for a life changing, near-death, journey. Every episode concludes with his signature line:
Coach: "Hence my name, the dragon slayer."
LOVE.
Seriously, read the whole thing, but swallow your coffee first.
Hey, have you guys discovered River Monsters on Animal Planet?
I watched an episode and it was amusing and informative. Giant catfish, giant turtles and then the guy goes fishing for them.
Hmmm, apparently, I missed an episode on a vampire piranha.
Great blog. I assume Coach is a pathological liar (and a pathological quoter of vaguely inspirational quasi-religious texts), but how much of what he says do you think is true? For example, he went to the Amazon, but did NOT hear teeny tribesmen discussing eating his ass.
I think he is COMPLETELY full of shit. Honestly, I'd be surprised if he'd ever been out of the country.
I also assume the reason you can't Google his martial art is that he made it up.
eating his ass.
I believe it was his assHOLE. Which is... weird.

The first person that I (thought I) applied to TAR with turned out to be a pathological liar. After that experience, I doubt every single thing that comes out of Coach's mouth.

No, it's part of EW's Popwatch section.
