You might be listening to the day by day roundup right here as a part of the truth. Steve podcast. I’m your host actuality. Steve, thanks all for tuning in on this Friday. Good episode for you. We’re going to speak concerning the merchants final night time. A really attention-grabbing episode, nevertheless it is also beginning to put on on me a bit bit.
And I’ll let you know why. What occurs at present? Effectively, in addition to the truth that it’s Valentine’s day. We get the primary six episodes of affection is blind season eight. By the point you’re listening to this, they’ve already been posted. They went up at 3 AM Japanese time this morning. We’ll discuss that and you would possibly must quick ahead.
If you happen to haven’t watched Cobra Kai, the ultimate 5 episodes of the collection, I’m going to speak about it and provide you with my ideas. You realize, this has been a serious present in my life for the final six years. It lastly aired the collection finale, the final 5 episodes. I’m going to debate it on at present’s podcast and we’ll get to all that momentarily.
All proper, let’s get start. Let’s start with the merchants final night time. Oh boy. Okay. We began out with the homicide of Chris shell and then we had a mission. I’ve advised you all season. I don’t take care of the missions. They’re the least attention-grabbing a part of the present. I perceive it’s a means for them to construct a bankroll, however I don’t know.
I simply, I don’t actually suppose folks watch the sport reveals that don’t have a prize of at the least 750, 000. It simply doesn’t appear as attention-grabbing to me. Like, I don’t suppose I’m actually watching the merchants to see if three or 4 folks can break up 250, 000, you recognize, if you take away taxes and the truth that possibly everybody will get one, possibly two folks get one 25 every or regardless of the case could also be, it simply doesn’t appear all that related.
You’re gameplay and I suppose the drama. However man, these missions are so dangerous. They’re very repetitive. I really feel like within the first two seasons of the merchants, there was all the time a mission the place they needed to do precisely what they did final night time. Possibly it wasn’t listening to dolls and relaying it again to someone within the fort they usually had, however the entire thought of taking part in the sport of phone, I really feel has all the time been a factor in.
The merchants, proper? The place some group of persons are out within the subject, they must name again to the mansion and relay one thing. I really feel like that’s all the time been a mission. After which but once more, and that is the factor that’s actually grading on me relating to the merchants. I don’t purchase for a reality that each single mission comes right down to the final 10 seconds.
The truth is, I’m fairly certain folks within the first season have admitted that. Yeah, that’s only for TV as a result of I really feel prefer it appears each mission begins out the identical means, whereas they begin no matter mission they must do. And Alan is principally saying these folks don’t know what they’re doing. They are working out of time.
They’ve barely gotten something performed, after which swiftly it picks up they usually find yourself profitable some cash. If I’m not mistaken, there was like eight minutes left. It was a 30 minute mission. There was eight minutes left they usually hadn’t discovered something but. They hadn’t discovered any doll and relayed the appropriate factor and singing the track and all that with eight minutes left.
After which they received all eight within the final. They received all 4 dolls within the final eight minutes. What had been they doing for 22 minutes? And don’t say they had been in search of a protect as a result of it simply. It’s so foolish. It may at the least make it attention-grabbing, at the least make it compelling, at the least make it to the place you’ll suppose possibly throughout a few of these missions, some folks may get uncovered or I don’t know.
I simply. I don’t want that for TV, as a result of I do know it’s not true when each single mission comes right down to the final 10 seconds. And each single mission begins out the identical means, the place they’re utterly fumbling and bumbling round, and no one looks like they know what the hell they’re doing, they usually’re by no means gonna get any cash on this, and oh my god, right here they go, they made all 20, 000.
The max they may have made on yesterday’s mission. It’s like, oh, after all they did. In order that’s simply dumb. I’m sick of it. It’s simply, I might fairly see an hour of spherical desk discuss than them even doing missions. The spherical desk was in all probability the least attention-grabbing spherical desk of the season as a result of everyone voted Ciara.
There was no drama, there was no intrigue. Ciara received each vote apart from her vote and she or he voted for Brittany. So it’s like, okay, effectively that didn’t actually do something. I suppose the attention-grabbing or essentially the most talked about of final night time’s drama on the spherical desk Was Tom Sandoval having a Freudian slip, saying that girls are probably to be cheaters.
And everyone jumped down his throat, clearly as a result of we find out about Scandaval. Look, I knew he was attempting to say traitors, however for tv functions, yeah, they received their second with Tom. And each lady jumped down his throat, which they need to have, nevertheless it’s not what he actually meant. The man is human rubbish anyway.
I’ve by no means preferred the man, although I didn’t watch Vanderpump Guidelines till Scandival broke. However simply seeing him on these final three episodes of Season 10 after which watching him in all of Season 11. Yeah, I don’t take care of the man in any respect. However, he wasn’t That was a slip of the tongue. I there’s no must harp on it.
Slip of the tongue. He clearly was attempting to say traitors. And since he in all probability has the IQ of I don’t know, an earthworm. He he, he stated I believe ladies are probably to be cheaters as an alternative of girls are probably to be traitors, however so Chris shell and Sierra had been eradicated after which Danielle and Carolyn go to.
The turret and also you knew it was coming as a result of it occurs each season. Alan was going to return in and say, you may have the power, you may have the prospect proper now to recruit someone to be a dealer with you, or you possibly can homicide somebody tonight. If you happen to do recruit someone they usually flip you down, then no one. So right here’s the query I’ve, although I do know it’s not going to occur.
I don’t know who they’re attempting to get. They’re 1000 p.c going to herald a dealer and attempt to recruit someone. And that dealer is 1000 p.c going to say, sure, everyone knows what’s coming. They’re not going to show it down. They haven’t turned it down within the first two seasons. They’re not going to show it down subsequent week.
They’re going to recruit someone to be a dealer they usually’re going to say sure. And so they’re going to finish up murdering someone. So. With that stated, my query is, let’s simply say, for the sake of taking part in satan’s advocate right here, let’s simply say they recruit a traitor, and that traitor does say, I don’t wish to be a traitor.
No. Then nobody will get murdered at breakfast, wouldn’t that be a telltale signal that someone was recruited the night time earlier than and stated no? As a result of why else wouldn’t someone be murdered? They’re all the time anticipating someone to be murdered at breakfast. I don’t know. That’s why I just about know somebody’s going to say sure, whoever they attempt to recruit.
They are saying they need both Gabby or Brittany because the recruit. Danielle needs Brittany, Carolyn needs Gabby, and Carolyn, as of what we noticed on the finish of final night time’s episode, stated, completely not, are we going to herald Brittany as a dealer, since you, Danielle, She’s like your bestie and also you guys are going to workforce up towards me.
No means. I’d be silly to take that. And Danielle was attempting to persuade her like, no, by no means. I wish to win this with you. The 2 of us win this factor. It’s sort of powerful when she has voted for her prior to now and tried to get her out. So I don’t know what’s going to occur, however what I do know is they are going to recruit someone and that individual will say, sure, my guess is Gabby’s going to finish up being a dealer.
That’s my guess. And. When it comes to how this factor goes to play out. Alan reiterated it final night time. Hey, as soon as we get to the tip, as soon as someone is eradicated, they don’t must reveal if they’re a traitor or a trustworthy. Now, I don’t know if there’s a set variety of what’s thought of quote unquote, the tip of this present is there.
Is it when it will get right down to 4 folks, 5 folks like that’s the tip. I can’t even keep in mind. I keep in mind in season one, if you had half the folks as. Actuality TV folks and half the folks had been regular folks. It was a ultimate 4, proper? It was Suri and our Suri and Ari versus the 2 non actuality TV folks.
After which final season, I keep in mind, I do know CT and Treshelle one, however I neglect who was with them in the long run. So yeah, I don’t know what’s thought of the tip. We’ve received eight folks left going into subsequent week, proper? Because the, as final night time’s episode ended, we now have eight folks left. So I suppose we’re getting near the tip.
I believe final night time was episode 9. I consider there’s 13. So we solely received a month of episodes left. I don’t know. I simply don’t know what it’s. I don’t know if it’s essentially the forged trigger I’m high quality with this forged. I simply really feel like one thing’s lacking this season. I really feel prefer it’s simply the identical factor.
There’s nothing new or authentic. The present is beginning to sort of bore me a bit bit. However then once more, when you consider it, in the event you take a look at any of your favourite actuality reveals, isn’t it just about the identical factor each season, simply with completely different folks sort of is. And I really feel like we’re simply getting a bit stale with the merchants as a result of.
It’s the identical guidelines, and I simply really feel like I’m watching the identical factor each season and there’s nothing too modern about it anymore. ?
