I'd like to see Corinne leave before Kenny and Crystal. She said Sugar was dumb and called her a bitch last night. Really? Other than Susie, Sugar is probably one of the nicest people there. And she has managed to see through people without anyone saying anything to her. I think she's extremely smart. And Corinne makes me extremely angry.

I would like to see Sugar get Matty Corrine and Bob together... make an alliance no one would suspect, and they would have the numbers, because Randy and Crystal will not work together, so bam!

That could work.

Because you know that Kenny and Crystal are a package, and Crystal and Randy won't work together. So just get rid of all three of them. Only problem is, having Kenny and Crystal on the jury will be dangerous if they're voted out before Bob and Corinne as these two have NEVER been close with Matty or Sugar.

If I could pick the top three people right now I'd say, hands down... Sugar, Matty, Bob. They're the three most honest people without having to announce their decisions and strategy to the world. They all have something to offer, and personally I think they'd be the most deserving.

Not a Bob fan... he seems like a sweet guy, but I don't know of any game move besides the fake idol (that hasn't come into play yet) that he has made in this game... he is coasting.

I don't feel like I know a whole lot about the original Kota tribe. My only other option for the final three would be Susie, but I don't see her making it that far.

On a likeability factor, I agree wholeheartedly. As for game play - Matty is going to be a challenge king on anything physical (he's the only physical threat left!!), he also hasn't angered anyone yet, he's a straight shooter. Sugar has the hidden II, and she has allied herself in votes with the right people at the right time (but, maybe its been dumb luck, or susceptibility to manipulation - at least that's how the edit makes it seem). And, Bob has performed physically in challenges way better than many of the others despite his age. He has somewhat coasted through the strategy stuff, but designing that realistic looking idol out of resin and pieces of crap he's picked up along the way was genius, Sugar might even be fooled into thinking that a second one was planted. (at least I hope so)

I agree that Corrine can be a bitch, and she showed her true colors the last couple of weeks, but she doesn't bother me any where near as much as crazy eyed Crystal, a**hole Randy, and getting too big for his britches Kenny.

[a.e.B.O.T.]

I can see how you don't like Kenny... he is coming off a little cocky... BUT I think he has deserved his spot in the final 3, hell, he is still there, so I think him Matty and Sugar should be the final 3... but there is still time for some huge powerplays from others that could change that...

I don't think Sugar has allied with the right people... I think she's turned away from the right people. Sugar saw Ace's game and got rid of him, and right now, she seems suspicious of Kenny. I think she knows what she's doing more so than some of the other people who are left.

Bob is still physically strong. Does anyone remember last week's challenge against Matty? Everyone else dropped out, but he held strong and almost beat him. If he can compete with Matty, he's ok in my book.

I wouldn't mind if Kenny was in the top 3, but him and Crystal are pretty much a package deal. At least, that's what Crystal keeps saying. I don't know how long Kenny is going to be loyal to her, but if she gets voted out and it's clear to her that Kenny betrayed her, it's not going to be pretty when it comes to her being part of the jury.

Kenny will be loyal to her as long as she is there... he needs numbers, and he can convince her to do what he wants... I think this next episode will be exciting with Randy and Crystal together... Sugar wants Randy gone... Corrinne will be scrambling like a nut case... Kenny will be over confident thinking he has Sugar in his pocket... etc...

"Corinne Kaplan (29)
Hometown: Los Angeles, California
Occupation: Pharmaceutical Sales

Corinne Kaplan takes great pride in being able to manipulate the people around her. ....This catty former sorority girl uses her wit and sex appeal to further her goals."

Does anyone know what sorority Corinne was in? SDT at UCLA? Just wondering. Is there an SDT there at UCLA?
After all, this is GC..surely someone is sorority obsessed enough to go out and do the work for me to find this information?

HEE

It was SOO clear in the beginning for TOO many weeks the direction the gay was going, and in the last 4 evictions, that has changed... I don't like Crystal, but the fact that she is still there, with kenny as well as sugar, and marcus ace and charlie are gone... unfreakingbelievable... power to the weaker players!!!

Agree completely.

Again, I agree. I think she's a lot smarter than the others have been giving her credit for being.

Meanwhile, Marcus, Charlie and Corinne are being (have been) outplayed.

[AGDee]

I agree that Sugar is much smarter than the others realize. I stated that first when she got the HII back from Ace. She's still sitting pretty with that. I liked Marcus so I'm sorry to see him gone, but it was a very smart game move. Corinne's strategy totally backfired on her and I was so glad. My mean side wants her to be the last of her alliance to go, just to kind of rub it in to her. I am very much enjoying this season. The blindsides have been classic. The arrogance has been punished and the "losers" are winning. It's kind of like Revenge of the Nerds For Sugar and Susie to be the first to get fire during that challenge was awesome! Sugar has to be careful at this point to make sure she can get jury votes though.

[AlphaFrog]

I just feel like much of this season has been the results of the production team meddling. I get that the game would have been fairly predictable had things continued the way they were, and being flexible is absolutely part of the game, but there's been almost TOO much mixing up and too many twists for me. If it weren't for the last tribal switch being 100% luck of the draw (literally), I would have to accuse the producers of stacking and re-stacking the tribes to get rid of who they wanted to see gone.

[MysticCat]

Interesting interview with Charlier -- and take on Sugar -- at Reality News Online.

I think you are right, and I TOTALLY don't care... this is a fun season, and if it wasn't for paranoia, Ace, Charlie and Marcus would STILL be there...
