Expedition Robinson: Aftershow episode 13

By

Okay, okay, okay: you guys are right. And I've learned a lesson again. Just a bit of context: this grandma was watching Expedition last week completely zonked out on painkillers, but I'm afraid I was a bit more stoned from that medication than I actually thought... And you guys made that very clear to me right away. HAHA.

Yes, I was a bit too hard on Krista and oh for sure, I thought Radmilo genuinely wanted to go home and wasn't playing a game. I'm naive. Too naive. Luckily, I have you guys who correct me right away, so hearts for you. But it might be that I fly off the handle again in this episode, because my goodness, this was intense again...

1. It's going to be quite a emaciated group, isn't it? And not in terms of numbers, but in terms of kilos: the lack of food is getting very real.

2. Wait a minute. I don't understand this at all. I thought Radmilo meant it when he said he wanted to go home, but the comments on Facebook pointed out to me that it was all an act, and now he still wants to go home? Or is this again an act? What the heck?

3. Fortunately, Ilse is just as suspicious as I am now. Understandable. I'm not going to make that mistake from last week again. And besides that, it would actually be his just desserts if he wanted to go home but tricked Krista into staying: that he is now simply NOT being sent home.

4. Imagine if he stands in the final with complete reluctance, isn't into it at all, and then totally flops... He hasn't done a single challenge well so far. The sadist in me chuckles.

5. Sorry, but I find that pole hanging so hellish, and how then? I really can't imagine you can hold this for minutes. What a horror, I must say.

6. I take point 4 back a bit, because in this episode he manages to become third. Still impressive.

7. HAHA. Gotta love Mark against Guido: ‘You can't break me!!’ But also Guido is hanging there so relaxed. A bit discussing whether they take each other along, yes or no. Daydreaming about a mattress. Just chatting. Nice, I must say.

8. I still find it so strange and actually quite stupid that when you drop out first in a challenge, you still have a big chance of getting an EXTRA vote. That's not really fair, is it?

9. It's lame that Art isn't reading the texts under Radmilo. With Krista, that was done when it was negative, but now not when it's meant positively? Lame.

10. Excusez-moi? Why are there votes going to Iris? What am I missing here? Better said: what are Iris and I missing here, because her expression also shows total confusion. What the actual fuuuu...

11. You should just be able to veto one vote. Radmilo has been saying for two episodes that he wants to go home and now there are two people going home who want to stay.

12. Nicolette be like: ‘You are the weakest link. Goodbye.’ Ice cold. ‘So you give up?’ No mercy.

13. But wait a minute: isn't it often the case that when someone voluntarily steps down, the vote doesn't count? Or that you get a black vote? Does Expedition love drama so much that they seriously let Iris go? You should see me now, angrily pounding on the keys in my sweatpants under a blanket. Hahaaa, this show is getting under my skin.

14. But honestly: Iris could have absolutely won this show — I really bet she would make it to the final, and she wanted it so badly. To be kicked out of nowhere like this really deserves a big fail. Around a 2 or 3.

15. Maybe it's just me, but the last two episodes are really darker than ever before. The phrase ‘it is on’ I think we will hear for a long time. This is going to be a bloodbath.

Was it fair that Iris had to go?
