Dang. Yul is hot. I mean really, really hot.

My thoughts are I wish they had voted out Jonathan. I didn't like the guy from the start, and the Aitu 4 would still have control even without him. Plus it would have won Yul some votes if he gets to the final two.

They were smart to keep Jonathan, no matter how annoying he is. He is annoying, but not quite as bad as he has been played out to be. Sure, he's ticked off everyone in the game, but a good deal of it was circumstance. He may be a bit off-putting, but I do think that in general his logic is sound.

But I really hope Yul wins. He truly is hot, and very cool.

I once heard that Koreans are the Brad Pitts of the Asian world. I heard this from a Korean girl though, so perhaps it was biased. I do think there may be something to it though. What about Jin on Lost? Not bad.

The only reason I can think of to keep Jonathan was just to use him as a sacrificial goat at the final two. I don't personally care for that style of gameplay in Survivor though, as it seems rather boring and predictable to me. Oh well. I'll still keep watching regardless.

Is that show still running? Weird.

Wait, they didn't vote out Jonathan? I'm sorry - I was just staring vacantly at Yul for the entire hour.

Okay, I'm kidding.

If Yul is smart, he'll take Jonathan to the final two with him. I think he's smart enough to see that. Also, Survivor history shows that sore tempers soften a little once the kicked-off ones have been at their cushy resort sleeping in nice beds and eating waffles for a couple of weeks. More jury members have given the money to people they swore they never would because of their dirty double-crossing than have given it to the "nice guy." The jury tends to respect a well-played game once they've recovered a little bit.

I think Yul is playing it well. He's been as honest as he can be, and he's been very even-handed about his honesty, not lying to the other alliance at all - that we've seen, anyway. I think that will mean a lot to them when it's time to decide.

The thing I don't get is why everybody doesn't make him play his immunity idol now just to get it out of the way. If everybody voted for Yul, he'd have to play it, and that would be that. He'd be forced to struggle in the individual immunities again or risk going home.

I think about this show too much, obviously. It's because I have a crush on Yul.

I've never seen Lost, so I wouldn't know (I know, I know. GASP!)

Jonathan is the PERFECT person to have sitting beside you in the Jury. That's a survival trait all the way to the final 2.

Still, I think he's gone in the next 3 votes. Adam, Pavarti, Jonathan in any order.

And you guys are blind as a bat. Pavarti is by far the hottest person of either sex to have ever played Survivor. ZOMG!

btw, Ozzy deserves to win this one, but I'm pulling for Pavarti because I'm shallow.

Yul even told Jonathan that taking him to the final two was his plan since Yul was not sure if he could beat Sundra or Becky in the final two. Jonathan has pissed off everyone.

Pavarti is hot.

I'm interested in seeing how it plays out with the final 5. Pavarti and Adam are gone next (thank god--I've never seen a more annoying duo), but then do they all agree to break the alliance? All four of them would love Jonathan on the final 2.

Frisco: I was kinda annoyed by their "Let's have a threesome in the tent while everyone else works..... HEY! Why aren't you FEEDING US!" antics last night.

I don't care if Parvati is good-looking, she drives me batty! I'll be fine if she goes next.
