Okay, so explain to me in what world it makes sense for both Kristy Lee and Syesha to still be on a program, when Michael Johns is not. Did you just forget to vote for him, America? Because that? Was whack. I’m not saying he was going to win the season, but I’m still confounded by how he can be gone, heck how Chikezie is gone, when those two ladies are still in the competition. Not getting that.

And I kinda think that going through the whole bottom three process, announcing the other two are safe, without actually saying MJ is gone..with anyone who has watched the show knowing — knowing! — that last year during Idol Gives Back week they decided to send no one home, then reminding everyone of that, while he’s still standing there, his entire future on the show still hanging in the balance, only NOT to rescue him but say, yeah, but not this year, buh bye, MJ. That was cold. Seriously.

However, though clearly stunned by the outcome, along with everybody else, he had a great sing out. Classy exit, Aussie Boy. Now, for the love of god people, stop voting for Syesha and Kristy Lee (who wasn’t even IN the bottom three this week. It was Carly and Syesha….) Dogs and cats, living together. Up is down, down is up. What has the world come to?

Well, what the world has come to over on Survivor is people playing immunity idols carved out of sticks, that’s what’s happening there. Loved last night’s episode. Loved. The tribes merge into one. Amanda is having serious jealousy when it’s clear that Alexis and Ozzy shared quite the time on exile together (of which we saw zilch) so she wants her competition gone. Cirie is all over that, giggling her way through her confessionals. Love her. Jason is still Jason, which is to say completely unlikable, and even worse when he beats Ozzy for immunity first time out of the gate. Ugh.

But he gets his smack down when he offers Eliza his immunity idol and she incredulously tells him it’s just a damn stick, and that Ozzy clearly made it and has the real one. What’s hilarious, is that he STILL doesn’t want to believe that. Eliza knows, just as she knows she has to try anything to stay in…so she plays it. Ha! One of my favorite tribal councils, and James? Officially redeemed on worst immunity idol gaff ever, man. My favorite part was when Ozzy acted all miffed when Probst just tossed the thing into the fire. He was all “hey, that took me hours to make!” Ha squared. But Eliza did, at least, out Ozzy as having the idol, and it looks like Cirie is all over using that against him to get him out next week. We’ll see!

Top Chef remains unviewed. Mea culpa! But that leaves some fresh MAC for Monday, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, we have a SHaQ Attack contest winner this week. I asked you to name a book with a hero wearing a black t-shirt on one of my covers, other than the Black Sheep men, and you all came through. There were three possible correct answers: Black Satin, Santerra’s Sin, and Sean. Our winner this week, is Dena! Woo hoo!!!

Have a great weekend, everyone. See you Monday with a new SHaQ Attack contest. So…what did you think of AI’s ouster? Dish!
