User blog comment:-blak-/Cody VS The Writers/@comment-386913-20101124124839

Noah more figured Al out than defeated him. The problem is that Al is just always a step ahead of everyone else and thus his elimination. He reminds me of a manga character who always seems to get his way like Light Yagami or Aizen...heck, Light is the perfect comparison for Al: he is always a step ahead and goes crazy when he isn't winning. (that makes Noah L...I guess...) But hey, Noah got way better appreciation from me due to TDWT than his time on the island. (where he...kissed Cody (bleh) and insulted people at dodgeball)

Unfortunately your feelings towards Cody feels like how I do about Bridgette this season. It would have been great for her to step out from her Geoff obsession and maybe further develop her character beyond the little we got in TDI...but she was mostly just bait to show off Alejandro's powers. But hey, she got two epic songs so it's not a complete loss. (BTW: my favorites are Lindsay and Courtney, but I really do like Bridgette)
