And letting him spew his hatred for blacks is also good tv?
Jeff: Do you have any black people in your life?
Colton: Yes, my housekeeper.
His power will be nullified, watch it happen over the next two weeks.
What hatred? What spewing? At least with regard to blacks.
Bill is the one who brought race up, pretty much out of the blue, and as you noted just now Jeff is the one who asked the question - generating the TV. Edit to add: I remember the ghetto comment earlier. So I guess Colton did bring it up in a way. But that doesn't make me think that producers will try to hustle him off for the honor of the show.
If Colton leaves, my guess is that he'll do it through his own hubris - perhaps by not playing an idol when he should - not because the producers engineer it to "put him in his place".
You clearly didn't pay any attention. Bill didn't have any input until after the gay boy ranted about rebel flags, trailers, his life at the country clubs and how he doesn't associate with any of those kinds of people with the exception of his maid (who is the ONLY black person he associates with) The kid is an intolerant punk. And the irony of it is his own minority status but he is too full of himself to care. So full of himself in fact that he risked the game for every man in his tribe just so he could have his way.
Tarzan simply said stop he had heard enough about race!
If you can defend this kid, his words and actions then you're no better than he is.
And I didn't say he would be gone. I inferred that the producers will mix it up to remove his power.

As noted before, it seems like you and I are watching different shows. I remember it as Bill's remark about race being part of what prompted Colton's rant and Jeff's question about blacks in Colton's life.
But ummm ... what do you have against people who don't like rebel flags? That seems a funny thing to object to about him.
The look on Jeff's face when they entered TC was priceless.

Wonder how long he practiced that. I have a hard time believing he didn't know.

I've wondered about that too. Since the show probably wouldn't work all that well in syndication, but has become a fixture in the Anerican culture, I suspect after the last Survivor season, somebody will write a book or we will otherwise be advised of all the stuff going on that we don't see. And since we don't watch any of it live until the final vote, it is rather amazing that the 'secrets' are kept so very well.
Re the dynamics between Colton and Bill, I didn't see it as a racial issue to the extent that Grandpa saw it. I saw it as Colton resenting the class warfare aspect of it, though I'm finding myself less sympathetic with Colton but grudgingly developing a respect for his obvious leadership skills. I'll have to go back and listen more carefully to see if the racism angle is there that set Granpa M. off. I'll confess that I didn't pick up on that.
Sure he knew about it - all the tribal councils are planned beofrehand, to the point that they dictate the order of who sits next to who, who leaves first, etc.
Next week is the swap, and the beginning of the end of Colton. I thought his old tribe should've smoked out his idol by now, but he did make the statement in episode #2 I think when he said that he wasn't going to be like James and be voted out with an idol in his pocket is a huge tip-off. Knowing how this show operates, that is foreshadowing what is to come soon.

Colton is a nasty individual, I haven't liked him from the start. I figured he was a prep from the clothes he wore but never figured he was a snooty, snobby, elist, racist, Southern belle asshole too. If the men were smart (and I'm reaaalllly having my doubts about that) they'd blindside him next tribal and boot his gay little ass right outta there. His body language . . . omg, could he show any more disdain for Bill? Colton was absolutely repulsed by Bill. Colton is 100% pig. True story.
Do you watch the Survivor extras? Here's Bill's day after interview.

He's a cutie. Great attitude. He'll land on his feet.
