That would be great...I couldn't stand Russell when the series started, but now I think he is hilarious...and I'm actually rooting for him!

Last nights episode was the best so far! I am happy Laura is gone. Yea Evil Russell! at first I didnt like him but now..he is truly playing the game.

The past three weeks have been SO good!

Watching the jaws drop at tribal...

Erik is hysterical at council; I will be interested to see how his jury questioning goes at the end.

i like russell, he is playing the game the way it should be. He has a good mind, a little arrogant but hey he is doing what it takes to stay safe. I missed how it was a tie the first vote and not the second. Did they have it set up that way?

Yes, Russell pitched it to John in the woods.

What I haven't researched yet is why it wouldn't have been a fire-building challenge? Hasn't it lately been one of those? (Stefanie vs. Bobby Jon, Cirie vs.... somebody) Rather than the PROD. (Purple Rock of Death.)

Ha. Found out. Firebuilding is only used in F4 or smaller. Bigger numbers than that and they go with PROD.

“I couldn't stand Russell when the series started, but now I think he is hilarious...and I'm actually rooting for him!” Me, too. He has definitely made it fun to watch!

“I am happy Laura is gone. Yea Evil Russell! at first I didnt like him but now..he is truly playing the game.” I agree.

“Erik is hysterical at council; I will be interested to see how his jury questioning goes at the end.” I think so, too!

Yeah, Shambo's a character, but I like her, too!

I think a few people have also played a decent game... Mick and Brett and Natalie, for example.

Oh, and don't forget to go to CBS.com to see behind the scenes footage and Life at Ponderosa!

I can't wait to see how Russell acts if and when he gets to the Ponderosa!

So does Russel not have year have craft skills? I'm disappointed there has not been a fake immunity idol.

I have rather been expecting Russell to try a fake idol too but yeah, Dazey, I think he must just not be crafty, or surely he'd have tried it by now.

I will never ever forget the following fake idol exchange: "That's not the idol." "Why not?! It could be the idol." "It's a STICK!"

What happened last night?

It was a recap of the season with some "never before seen" scenes - you didn't miss anything.

I think these shows are funny. We go to another country and deprive people food and other fundamentals for a game show. Quite the social F-up if you as me.

Spoilers for F3:

Russ, Natalie and Mick. With Mick the alleged winner. Shambo is supposedly the last Galu standing.

Do I look, do I not look!??!



I don't know what to do!!

wow... another good one last night...

shambo... how can anyone be that clueless, that often???

Ok, so they make this big huge deal about Shambo cooking the chickens and nobody was allowed to even say word one to her about them d*mn chickens, and then they didn't even say if it was worth all the attitude she gave off about it! What's up with that? Did I miss something?

Go..... Russell!!!!

Seriously, he may be a jerk, but he is probably the best PLAYER I can remember in this game. He hasn't won any immunities or rewards or anything yet he is clearly in control. Not to mention finding all the hidden immunity idols without clues (ok, so he got 1 clue for the last one).

Anyone think Russel will go tonight?

nope.

i think he will stay, they others may start to question their safety but they haven't strategized(if this is a word) the entire game and I am not sure they would be able to get something together without it backfiring.

Unfortunately, I think he'll stay. I cannot stand him. I don't think the others are smart enough to vote him off.

Russell should have won, He did outwit, oulast and outplay the others. I knew he shhould not have taken Natalie to the finals.
