Those are very interesting thoughts, agree with most, certainly Marty and Brenda.

I don't think there is an Evil this time, but I do think that two many people are playing to the camera, and Fabio is showing an appreciation of where he is. Much like Matty in Gabon, who didn't win.

I think Holly is the "favorite" of the women. I think the shoes thing is long gone. I think the reason to give Jane FF edit is she showed her toughness with the immunities, she made fire without flint (a first), she catches fish, she is recently widowed, and she makes a big deal about being poor.

Holly is married and financially comfortable. I may vote Holly for fan favorite.

I don't think Dan has been shown with any moral weakness. He is rich and nobody would give a rich guy a million in this young group.

Sash is going to be shown having an end game alliance with everyone. He's been juggling a lot, and it will catch up with him. He is the villain, but he's so not much of a villain compared to the last two seasons.

Benry is a strong competitor, but yeah, he doesn't care about other people much.

Chase cares too much. Chase is also hung up on becoming a country singer, and I think that is his problem. He was a football player, now he's a sensitive and moral country music guy.

Alina was edited the way you say, despite the fact most viewers like Alina.
