Survivor

AAAAAAAAGHHH! Yeah, that pretty much sums up my feelings about it. Bunch of freakin' idiots. I'm not sure exactly what happened honestly, but I think Steven was able to play his advantage at any time by just declaring he was playing it for someone and that it didn't have to be at tribal council. I didn't realize that though so when Sophi announced she was gonna go after his advantage my heart sank, but then it started to float back up again when he told her he didn't have any. I thought Rizo would play his idol for her then, but when he didn't I was sure at that point that Sophi was gone, but then just before Jeff finished reading the deciding vote I thought, "Oh no, don't tell me Sage..." Bringing us once again to AAAAAAAAAGHHHH!!

Oh man, I really hope Savannah doesn't win the next immunity and Sophi changes her mind and takes her out, cuz if it ends up being just her Rizo and Savannah for final three I'm gonna tune out then and just tune back in to see the season 50 preview.

Watched Survivor tonight.

Well you have more hope for the game than I do @Dark_Cloud_Overhead

I decided to rage quit after Steven was voted out this episode.  I'm very mad right now.

Sage is dead to me, Kristina has no chance of winning, and Steven is out.  I would be on

Soph's side if she decided to go against Savannah, but she didn't.  Once I have no one left to cheer for, 

I stop watching and I have no one left to cheer for that I think has a chance to win.  I'll be back next season.

Dark_Cloud just let me know if Kristina is voted out next episode.  She's the only one I care about but not enough to watch.

Jentry Chau vs. the Underworld 1

Spoiler

I'm back to writing Kinky Kunoichi again, after over a year on hiatus, and I'm starting with an episode whose hypothetical production duties are being handled in-house at Titmouse. (Semi-Bullhorn.) Issue was, I was at a loss who to select as the episode directors, since seasonal director Juno Lee hasn't done anything hands-on since the Venture Bros. movie and my original pick, animator Young Ki Yoon, had abandoned Titmouse a decade ago and has instead been putting his effort into storyboarding CG theatrical films. [shudders]

So I decided to take a look in Titmouse's recent catalog to see if there was anything I could use for analysis, and after learning that their involvement in Invincible Fight Girl (a Cartoon Network Studios production) went only as far as animation subcontraction by way of their Vancouver outpost, clicking here and there on various IMDb links soon led me to this Netflix original from last year, which based on the first half of the promotional trailer - sound off, of course - had the visual style I wanted conveyed in jam #19. I have two unit directors in mind for the episode from among Jentry's staff - Alexandria Kwan and Mari Yang, the former of which was one of three directors for this debut outing - and in order to get the right vibe from the both of them, I've decided to watch Jentry Chau from start to finish, in this lull between by out-of-seasonal watches of Precure and Max Heart.

As for my thoughts on the first episode? In terms of presentation and visual direction, it's awesome, 10/10, Titmouse kills it yet again. The actual content of the show, on the other hand... it ain't bad by any stretch, but it does feel a little on the "Gen Z" side of character dialogue and especially the comic relief for a late-stage Millennial like myself; so it's balanced, really. All in all, I can totally see my younger self watching this were it a Cartoon Network original in the late '00s, for the obvious reasons.

Speaking of, I give "Worst Birthday Ever" a TV-PGV rating. Gotta hand it to Gugu, at least she only got to get Haji'd once. And she gets to stick around as a ghost, too. Bonus!

Finally got to see the episode I didn't even care that much to watch, but the stupid surprise presidential address caused the TV schedule to be changed and screwed up the DVR recording I set for it, so was waiting to see if they'd put it up On Demand -- which they haven't yet -- so just finally decided to watch it on the CBS website.

Anyway... sigh. Savannah won immunity, and they all voted out Kristina because she knew how to make fire and they were scared of facing off against her in that. Of course. Buck buck bugawk! Season of chickens remember. Sophie won the final immunity and set Savannah and Rizo against each other in fire. Savannah won it and then... won the show. *shock* *gasp*

Yeah, only surprise was she lost a couple votes when she choked a bit when Kristina asked her to name a single family member of each of the jury members. She wasn't gonna even try, but Kristina insisted she do so and she managed to name a few then or at least say how many kids some of them had. Pretty clear that's what lost her Kristina's vote though still and probably the one other one that went to Sophi. Jawan voted for Sage of course, but Savannah got the rest.

I kind of skipped through a lot of the after party talk, but the one bright moment I caught was Jeff saying Jake the Snake bite man made a full recovery and got home just in time to witness the birth of his son. That was a nice feel good moment. Finally... the season 50 promo looked great. Mr. Beast is actually making an appearance at some point. Looking forward to seeing what that's all about. "In the hands of the fans" is the season title, so probably a lot of surprises in store I'm sure. Also, the two weeks leading up to the premiere they're gonna be airing episodes from past seasons featuring some players who are gonna be on it as kind a way to remind people of who they are.

Kyle and Kamilla jump out at me as a couple to watch. Love seeing that Joe is gonna be back. Q too. Don't like at all that Savannah and Rizo are getting to play again right away though. Rizo I kind of get, but Savannah just won, geez! Other than seeing the two of them again, will definitely be looking forward to it.
