PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"BOARD ANNOUNCEMENT *****" |
Just wanted to clarify what is becoming a popular misconception amongst several posters.The episode title for the next ep is "The Winds Twist"! Yet, by some perverted game of telephone several posters have been stating incorrectly that the title is "A Change in the Wind".
It may not seem like a big deal, but there IS an implied difference in the two titles. "Twist" obviously brings back memories of the twist from Africa, whereas a "change" can simply mean that the fortunes of Marlboro turn around. Obviously, there is a difference between the two sentences so I wanted to point that out before more people get led down the ever widening incorrect path.

Thank You, thank you, thank you, Sir Shakes. It was starting to get frustrating watching poster after poster write it wrong and just as infuriating as reading posts from regulars, correcting each one. Your thoughts, or flashbacks, from S3 and "the Twist", are exactly what is meant by the title.
If it is changed to "change" well, then it just is not a twist. And frankly, that's what MB has in store...A TWIST And, if you remeber from S3's "twist" Ep.5, they also said in the promos that "you can't miss the first 10 minutes" Which is exactly what they are saying about S4's Ep4. I however can't for the life of me think of a twist that isn't down-right unfair, foregoing reality or just plain stupid. Until there are an even number of people. As it is there are 13, how do you split that up fairly?

Anyway, I'm now pretty sure that they use the "twist" word in the title to misdirect us big time,I posted this somewhere else and didn't get any response, so I'll try again: To my knowledge, the titles have never been an actual misdirection. They may be something innocuous, of no real value to the show, but as far as I know they've never been misdirection. (Note there is also a difference in actual "misdirection" and something that MB might intend to lead us AWAY from the truth). Can anyone refute what I just posted? This would be the first big misdirection this season. Are we watching the same program? I think the attention on Kathy has been a HUGE misdirection (see voting results for Episode 2), Pat's interviews and the See-BS site attempted strongly to steer us away from Hunter as the Ep. 3 bootee. I also submit that a lot of the Sean and Sarah focus was to lead us AWAY from the truth. Yes, one day this misdirection will actually become THE direction, but for the first couple of episodes, I'd say MB was working those storylines hard for ulterior purposes.

OK, I thought it was clear to just about all the regular spoilers by now, but I explain it again... Actually I'm not watching S IV. I'm in Finland, and we just saw Ethan triuph on SIII last weekend. I'd expect to see S IV next Fall as the earliest. I'm spoiling strictly based on the matrial I find in the internet, the old shows (you can find some MB patterns there) and my knowledge in editing and popular culture(I'm working on my Master thesis in Film- and Television Studies). And since I'm not a native English speaker, and I might be using some words a little bit incautiously. "Misdirection" was just one example. Anyway, what I wanted to say was that there will probably be a twist, but not a kind of a twist they had in Africa. It wouldn't be real misdirecting, just making people assume too much (btw, as someone who did read each and every Agatha Christie book between the age of 12 and 15, I learnt something about making people assume things  ).

Thank you Shakes!
IMHO, the twist this time will be an early merge.
