Monday must have been a repeat, the season started last Tuesday and ep 2 is tonight

No monday thing was me being dumb and not checking my bookmarks for a week. I didn't think this was getting bumped because the new season started. So my DVR wasn't set and Syfy isn't airing a rerun before like normal.

Yeah, the two parter screwed me up because the episode title didn't make that clear. I would have just sorted and watched part 1 before live watching part 2.

I like the format. They don't all need to be team challenges because the more important thing is that one player in your pool doesn't lose. So individual challenges will be harder on the veterans because the have to hop among all of their group and make sure every single one is on the right track. I wonder if they might do interesting stuff like mixed group challenges. Could be interesting to see veterans providing conflicting advice to a team and have them work out Erich to follow.

I also suspect will get higher quality results because they'll not need several episodes for the newbies to realize the high bar they need to reach. I think the veterans have already steered several away from cliffs.

I can't wait to entertain you.
Having Mr. Westmore come in seems redundant. Why even have the mentors if he is going to undercut them 10 minutes later? Seeing the mentors stand around awkwardly as he goes over everything was just weird.

I liked it because he seemed more vicious than usual, though it's possible I misinterpreted his advice. I hope to be his age someday and berate young people.

It would be really great if we could get a new thread.

Did anyone else think the queen monkey just looked like a super old Rita Repulsa? I thought the mandrill makeup looked the best. I just knew the guy with my name would be the first one eliminated.

I know 99% of people don't give a poo poo at all, but I really wish they'd leave the primates out of this because I know there's going to be some people using the wrong words next episode. Lemurs aren't simians. :(

I laughed out loud when McKenzie called them all monkeys several times in the first few seconds of the episode. :v:

What should be in a new thread seeing as we kind of forgot? Should it maybe be a thread about Face Off in general if the turn out in the thread is as low as this one?
