My point onSurvivoris not to win a million dollars.
I want to win a million hearts.
Thats more important to me.

Bhanu
Okay, Im going to stop you right there.
That should be attribute number one for every player that goes through theSurvivorcasting process.
So youre saying you only came on the show to be popular?

Do we have a future influencer in our midst?
And I cant help but be entertained by their hijinks.
I mean, have we ever seen a tribe so obsessed with Kenny Rogers lyrics?
Hunter McKnight and Liz Wilcox on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
Or one that had an actual mermaid dragon on it, for that matter?
Watching Bhanu onSurvivorhas been like watching a horror movie in real time.
YOU WILL GET MURDERED!

DO NOT SPLIT UP!?
Watching Bhanu playSurvivoris kind of like watching that guy.
Bhanu is a massiveSurvivorfan yet seems to have no clue how to playSurvivor.

Q essentially told Bhanu that he was his Phillip Sheppard and Bhanu was like, Cool!
No, I would not.
Bhanu spilled so much he needed theBounty quicker-picker-upper ladyto follow his every footstep of that Journey.

He also straight up collapsed on the sand at that Journey.
Again, maybe not the best look.
Bhanu is clearly a good dude.

I met him out there in Fiji.
But holy smokes is he overwhelmed.
And he would be the first to tell you that.
In fact, HE TELLS US THAT EVERY 30 SECONDS ON THE SHOW!
But Bhanu offers a different flavor of contestant the messy delight.
Which is what makes him such a delight to watch.
Thank God for camera lights!
The answer was obvious: Siga was going to lose this weeks immunity challenge.
Why else would they wait and then show it here?
Go find a bookie.
Put down your life savings on a huge Siga loss.
EASY MONEY, BABY!
Jesus, get it together,Survivor!This was the most obvious of obvious tells.
You think youre so smart with your fancy editing and stellar producing.
I can t believe how easily you telegraphed the results of the immunity challenge with this segment.
In fact, I would go so far as to….
Hold on…. Whats that you say?
Q knocking down one of his own sand bags?
Ummm… yeah, lets just pretend the last paragraph never happened and move on.
You get to run a challenge.
Its magical and Ive never seen another place like it.
Until I saw Hunters room.
But maybe not to Venus.
And maybe she just really, really wanted that bed!
But lets be honest: Its all about the barrel.
What a super-weird form of discipline.
You have hereby been convicted of a heinous crime.
Now go look hilarious!
Anyway, thats the best use of a barrel and I will hear no arguments on the matter.
But thesecondbest use of a barrel is making reality TV contestants attempt to hoist themselves over one.
Its a win-win, is what Im saying.
That means it came down to a Flock of Siga vs. Yanu Plus Bhanu battle.
Classic Yanu, am I right?
In this one, they just pulled rocks and tried to do a puzzle.
Totally fine, but not nearly as dynamic as the first one.
Its noble and its admirable.
If it makes you feel at all better, I once did this toOwen Knight with a headline.
Personally, I would take fumbling over that any day of the week.
Can that liability become an asset.
Of course, there was no way to know that at the time.
Eventually, his right hand went limp and he could not grip or feel anything.
That was a close call.
But wait a minute: Why would they show that scene if Randen is okay?
If they were showing this visit, then it was for a reason.
It turns out that Dr. Will has colleagues who dont just work on a remote island chain in Fiji.
So he could have stayed and most likely been just fine.
Knowing that would kill me inside.
But there really was no option.
They really had no choice.
It had to be done.
But it still sucks.
I also asked: Could Randen have passed off his advantage to Venus before leaving the beach?
Find out what the host has to say about that.
That is my promise to you.
Oh, and did you knowa huge storm ripped through camp on night six?
