Just watched S25-Phillipines for the first time, some thoughts!

First of all, what a cast.

Penner is easily one of the most enjoyable contestants in the history of the show.

Abi provided some essential drama, you had Himbos like Pete and Carter, the charming Malcolm.

I also loves Denise and was so glad she won.

On the other hand, I hated the final 3. It was hard to watch Skupin in general given his disgusting actions outside of the show but it was even harder to seem him be successful and touted as this nice guy everyone seemed to like. Just talking about him makes me want to go watch him fall into fire again.

And Lisa, my god, I have no idea how she made it as far as she did, and then to even get a vote.

Smaller thoughts…

-Idk why Angie got shit for answering that she’d want “cookies” as the one thing when Jeff asked her. It’s a show where people sleep in the forest and pay $500 for two pieces of fried chicken.

-Jeff’s whole “can’t let a returning player win” thing seemed to be the only thing he focused on

-Russel was a bitch

-Malcolm gloating in an interview about how he had immunity and the hidden idol was when I knew he was done

-If Carter had even a fraction of charm or tact he wouldve had a good chance to win

-really hate Lisa, one of my least favorite edits and final three contestants ever.
