  • @almanook3005
    @almanook3005 Před 6 lety +15

    As Claire put it, Ann was "picking on Andy from the start. Then, in the 3-way tie in the 3rd round, she forcefully pointed out Andy's flaws. Andrea had voted for Leigh, and, after hearing Ann's diatribe against Andy, Andrea changed her mind Ann said, "Don't let me influence you!" Translation: I want Andy to go!

    • @hotwax9376

    • @almanook3005
      @almanook3005 Před 5 lety +1

      Andrea was the strongest link. At 17:20, when the votes are counted, there was a 3-way tie: After Ann's strongly worded disapproval of Andy, Andrea changed her vote from Leigh, to Andy.

    • @almanook3005
      @almanook3005 Před 5 lety +2

      Yet another interesting development: Andrea saved Leigh in the third round tie. Later, in the 6th round, there was a 4-way tie. And who did Leigh vote for? Andrea. Luckily, for Leigh she answered the only question that was correct, in that round, making her the strongest link. With that, it's on to other shows of my currently favorite program.

    I almost thought Ms Robinson wasn't going to be even-handed with the tie-breaking facts, although she still seemed to have more against the victim of the first change of vote than the second (or the third, a non-change).
    Lots of passing instead of guessing; perhaps Washington was the worst such.

    Cholesterol does NOT increase risk of heart disease. If anything, it is a symptom of heart disease. When you arteries become damaged or inflamed, cholesterol goes in to heal the damage. But if the cholesterol is oxidized, it can get stuck inside the damage and form plaques. This oxidation is caused primarily by eating too many carbs, not too much fat as we've been told. Nor is cholesterol a waste product; it's one of the most vital chemicals in your body, helping to build the brain, sex hormones, cell membranes, and more. There is no correlation between high cholesterol and heart disease; in fact, about half of all people hospitalized for heart attacks have low or normal cholesterol levels.
    Also, the Colorado River in Texas is not the same Colorado River that runs through the Grand Canyon and the Hoover Dam. They are two separate rivers with the same name. I know because I was recently in the Austin area for a family wedding and I remember driving across that river and wondering whether they were the same. I later looked it up and found out they weren't.

      Sarcasm?? After 2 rounds, as I watch this, she hasn't missed any.

    I wonder does the hosts have any children and if she does do she degrade her children the way she's doing these contestants

    Andy was begging to be voted off. He couldn't recall 'attorney', he didn't know 'olive or Yiddish', and while he works in the food industry, he thought oranges are pickled. Astonishingly ignorant. And, Ian never banks. He misses questions more often than he's correct, but he doesn't bank. That's reason to get rid of him. Ian is pathetic. He didn't bank. He had it out for Astra, whom actually faired better than he. And, apparently he doesn't know the difference between women and girls.

    I would find the program more enjoyable if the presenter was ‘nice’. Her attitude isn’t necessary, but i see the Australian program uses the same style, which i am too ‘nice’ to name or describe.
