Has the editing always been this in your face obvious in regards to who will lose the Immunity challenge? When each episode they focus on one team and what they would do if someone gets the boot before the Immunity challenge, it's pretty safe to call who will end up losing and going to tribal council. They really need to show strategy on both sides this way who goes to tribal won't be so obvious making the immunity challenge suspense MIA.

If you see someone saying that know they did well.. they sucked. If you see someone saying they know they won't go home. Might as well say Good Bye.

The middle of the episode attempts to pull the wool over your eyes by introducing someone else as also sucky and worthy of the boot. By the end of the episode, the original shitty person's shittiness is validated to the viewers, and that person is subsequently booted. I think this all started on Palau, who had so many horrible and apathetic players that they had no other way around it.

I'm sure GC will also leave the game very soon. The editing has become increasingly shittier since ASS. Not only there are contestants who don't get a confessional till episode 4 or 5 but we can always tell which tribe is going to win immunity...not to mention the helicopter shot

Knew that something would happen with Paloma with the recap randomly bringing her up saying that Ace was annoying. And later knew that she would be leaving due to obvious editing.

He had so many of them it was the most blantant winner's edit ever, people say.

I was thinking "how the fuck did they get pillows?" and then decided it was someone decorative backpack. Then they go to reward and the same pillows are there and I knew fang won. How the fuck did that slip by the editors?
