I'm still glad it gave us Shawn, Jasmine, and Sammy though (who's the first non-comic-relief nice girl with a lot of personality and development). I guess you can see why I like Shawn so much. He's the perfect blend of development, comic relief, and depth.

Yeah, Chris is as annoying as ever. I did say this was the season I gave up on him and have joined the "Chris McLean Haters" club. I cannot forgive him for what he did in the finale. That was so low, even for him.

We're better than them. Let's not waste our time and energy on a futile debate. All I ask is I don't come across every third character being bashed for being "boring" or "overrated" in the comments. It gets really annoying at times, and is definitely disrespectful. I mean, what is wrong with being normal? People are allowed to like stuff that doesn't defy logic and is over-the-top crazy.

Well not everyone behind the making of TDAS can be blamed for what went down. It's more restricted to a few specific individuals, who I will refrain from naming at the moment. You can't expect all of the innocent writers to clean up the mess that their predecessors made (esp. poor old Laurie Elliot). The TDPI writers who weren't involved in the scandalous issue, might not even be aware of the crap that unfolded in the other season, since (as TDPIScarlett pointed out) they were produced at the same time.

Yeah. It's quite likely a last minute addition they added in after all the other stuff. You might be aware that for many shows, the production order can be vastly different from the airing order.

The scene you were referring to, presumably from Final Wretchening.

Noted, thanks. I'll be right behind you if you need any support.

He does seem to be getting away with his crimes a bit easily as of late. Kinda ironic, Chris' sins get worse, but his karma gets lighter. The guy puts Duncan's Karma Houdini status to shame. Still, kinda refreshing to see this:

Was there anyone who didn't hate that scene?

Mmm, don't know about that. I was never one to hate the confessionals, but now that you mention it, they do get a bit annoying when you have an action scene cut half way through, so that the contestants can Narrate the Obvious.

Seems like someone still hasn't learnt the lesson: "Don't give that man finales to write!" If you have to keep him around, for his history with the team, then give him non-elimination episodes. They seem to be the only one's he can handle. ...and that is why Don is a better host than Chris.
