Unfortunately, CBS will see this episode as a resounding success and commission more idols to be made and hidden.

I think I hate the HII more than I hate the final three.

Oh how I long for the days when the idols didn't exist...it wasn't even that bad when it was first introduced in Guatemala/Exile Island because entire
friggen episodes weren't devoted to them...they really need to stop this or else the show is digging it's own grave
 .

I hate Russell for constantly talking about himself and his stupid idol that is retardedly hidden time after time. GET RID OF THE IDOL FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! The
producers are gradually KILLING this show with their retarded twists/horrible recruiting. That elimination was complete BS.

can they at least bury the idol or hide it where a player will need one or two clues to find it. This is getting a little ridiculous and hurts the show's
credibility IMO.
The suspense of each tribal council from here on out is gonna dissipate more and more because we know whoever has the idol is gonna play it. They'd be crazy not to, knowing there's another one to be found. It makes the game less fun and less about who deserves to win. Galu has kicked foa foa's ass in pretty much every challenge including tonight's reward (minus Laura who then won Individual Immunity and Brett) Even though i like the players on foa foa better none of them deserve to get to final four. |

The HII is basically a "get out of jail free" card for playing a shitty game. It keeps things interesting and unpredictable yes, but it punishes the
people running the game and rewards those that have dug themselves a hole. If you're really a great Survivor player you'd never need one because
you'd never be in danger of getting voted out.

I think they should plant decoy HII's in addition to real HII's.

He caught a break, used it, and ruined the producers' fun. Ladies and gentlemen, the Survivor business model in all its regal splendor. |

I would not be apposed to the Hidden Idols if they played by the rules used in Guatemala that it was used before the vote and forced everyone to vote for
someone else instead of getting rid of the person with the next most votes. The Guatemala Hidden Idol basically had the same power as the Immunity Necklace. To
be honest I wished the Guatemala Idol had the power that it has now because Stephame would have gone home instead of Bobby Jon.

We all know that the idol will be back for S20.

The idol is like Exile Island, why they use it so may seasons is beyond me. It should be a twist that comes every few seasons. In my opinion after Exile Island
it should have never came back. But whatever. Not gonna change the minds of the people who make this show.

I actually wouldn't mind the HII as much if it was still like the Guatemala HII. That one was so much more fair to the other players.

People used to really bitch about tribe swaps but now they seem generally used to them. I don't see why Hidden Idols haven't had the same reception. |

It's definitely made what was going to be a predictable ending much crazier though!
