I really love me some Mr. Boston. This weeks episode was exactly what I love about him. The Entertainer thought by taking Boston on the trip was going to somehow "get into his head" but he never got that chance because Boston saw it coming. The Entertainer didn't get into his head and didn't get him booted off, so Mr. B wins hands down.

I have to admit that I saw through his act even before he said he was faking it, but I knew the Entertainer wouldn't. And seriously, getting rid of that chick was a stupid move when the only person that was a serious threat (especially to Entertainer) was Boston. But then again, he really should have put up the White Boy group and got rid of one of them, since they are physically the strongest and any break up of that alliance would cause havok for the two remaining players.

Oh well, I guess that is why The Entertainer still lives at home with his mom.

I think Boston makes for entertaining TV, but 1) he blew most of the points that Heather earned me on my fantasy team, and 2) I think he's a delusional asshat. Maybe because I find him a bit creepy, I read a lot of his commentary explaining what he claims as strategy to be totally untrue, attempts to try to seem cool-n-clever. For example, when he said that he was faking being sick, I assumed he was lying, making up a story to explain what might have made him look weak to audiences as a deliberate attempt to look weak to his opponents. I also think Megan, who is not across-the-board stupid and is damn good at manipulation, was playing him when she said that he was growing on her. She knows tossing him an occasional bone will keep him on her side with no effort, and as her success on Beauty and the Geek shows, a loyal nerd can be a useful tool in reality TV. The Entertainer, of all people, seems to have picked up on the hidden potential for mischief in both Boston (calling him smartand therefore potentially dangerous) and Megan (calling her manipulative, repeatedly), but opting to play the game based on personal reasons rather than actual strategy (and apparently forgetting his flashes of insight) was more what I expected from Parents'-Basement-Frank.

Okay, I think WAYYYYY too much about this show.

Fungus also grows on you ... that doesn't mean it's a good thing.

Also you should add From G's to Gents to your SSW cuz that's another shake my head show.

I love SSW! So awesome. Kristin how many points do you have so far in the fantasy game. I only made 29 points last week! Damn the man!

How Mr. Boston could grow on anyone is beyond me... *sigh*

I pitch the ultimate culmination of this celebreality evolution, The B&B connection. The show would be cameras following Busey as he followed Boston arround all day. As the casting special illustrated, when crazy like a fox meets crazy like a crazy you get comedy gold. Like in the special, the show would be Boston attempting to work the "Boston Charm"tm and Busey will come up and ruin any marginal chance he might have had.

As for the episode, I really hope faking being ill does not become an elimination trend. However, if Boston is constantly nominated I won't mind the fakery.

And the funniest quote ever.
Megan: Boston is kinda growing on me
Boston: I've got something growing right now *or something to that effect*
Classic

I agree with you that his strategy is pretty good, cheesy ,but good.

I don't know about this weeks upcoming episode, he seems to getting some trouble headed his way.
