Like, I am seriously SO mad at how Ciera is turning out, probably more than anything else this season. Ciera, who really had potential and made it far in her original season. Ciera, whom I felt genuinely had potential to be the closest thing in recent memory to a "New Parvati," beautiful, young, devious, and very determined, while not necessarily coming across as a huge threat...

But not only is she now probably gonna go mid-way through the season, and thus be perfectly forgotten; not only is she getting a totally invisible edit; but worst of all, this run on Cambodia is basically gonna forever doom her to the "legacy" that I've been hoping SO hard she would break out of because of this season. What legacy might that be, you may ask?

The "legacy" you'll hear from Probst especially, and pretty much EVERY Survivor commentator/critic, and heck, even Ciera HERSELF: "She voted off her mom! :D"

Like, if you ask Probst: "Name one thing Ciera did?" "Duh! She voted off her MOM! :D"

Then ask: "Name TWO things Ciera did?" "...Uh...DID I MENTION THAT SHE VOTED OFF HER MOM?! ;D"

Like, SERIOUSLY. I HATE when someone with potential is typecast into literally ONE move; one move that not only was really insignificant in the grand scheme of things, and not only did Ciera really have a choice in said issue, but Ciera's vote didn't even MATTER. Was her ONE vote the swing vote that sent her mom home? No. Did she come up with the idea to vote off her mom? No. Did she vote for her mom completely on her own, not aware that it would happen? No.

This is probably the ONE thing I HATE the most about Probst.
