So what can I even say about this episode other than... what just happened?
It's bad, I'm starting to get obsessed with this. I am also so sad there's only five episodes left, that's so quick! But you are doing it really well, the editing looks amazing and it's very professional. I guess I'm just so confused about where all of the teams stand with each other. I thought Yellow and Gray were in an alliance and then what?!? The mission was a little crazy because it did not go nearly how I expected, though I'm not surprised Yellow won this type of mission, they seem really well-liked. Kind of confused whether Red threw the challenge or if they really just don't know what they were doing...
So Brown wasn't sent to temple and I am so so so so so happy. If you get a chance let them know I'm rooting for them! It makes perfect sense not too though, everyone was targeting them and what benefit is it having them eliminated if they have zero pieces? I think Gray might give them one of theirs because Zion mentioned them doing something crazy with them. ALSO GRAY GETTING ELIMINATED, WHAT?!?! I can't lie, I secretly loved it. Them turning on their allies ended up being enough karma for them to go home. I'm a little upset all the strong teams are getting eliminated at temple though. Like if Blue and Gray were both in instead of Red and Purple this game would be crazy.
Right now my favorite team is obviously Brown! Then second I would say Orange because I really like the girl (Kasia?) I'm terrible at spelling haha. She has a different, more mature attitude than the others and it is really cool to see! I would then say Purple and Yellow, and then Green. Red is at the bottom because I really don't think they deserve it or care as much as other teams. Keep it up Mats!! This season is making me so happy haha.

ALSO can I point out the Gray team in both of our seasons won the first two Endurance missions, were sent to the second temple, and both got 7th place. Irony?

I never really disliked Brown. They were always one of my favorites!

That episode was definitely worth the wait!! I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! Every week by Tuesday/Wednesday I'm getting anxious for the next episode. I think about it all the time throughout the week, plus I love being able to say "I can't wait to watch the new episode of Endurance!" But I'm so sad that there are only 5 episodes left DD: Okay so seriously, as soon as Gray and Purple were sent up, I was like "I CAN'T IMAGINE THE GAME WITHOUT EITHER OF THEM!" I'm really sad that Gray left but as was stated before, I feel like it was a karma thing. You don't just up and abandon your allies/turn on them. (also, kind of random but I love the fact that everyone so far has said they would love to do Endurance again!) I like Brown, too, but I honestly don't have a favorite team at the moment! Maybe Green. Or Brown after all

Brenden is so nice. Like almost too nice for the game lol. It's so sweet. Brady is crazy! Hahahaha. This Endurance mission seemed really fun. Hearing Shanna in the background makes me a little sad that Blue is out. They definitely could have been a force to be reckoned with. Their departure certainly changed the whole game. Ironic how the Purple team comes back from Temple and wins the next mission. I'm not sure how much they "deserved" it based on skill, though. I couldn't really see who was actually getting the balls into the targets. I'm not sure what to make of their super team choices.... Red and Green haven't really proven anything yet. Are they hoping the other team will self destruct by having Brown and Orange on the same team? Or are they hoping Brown will keep them safe if they lose? (good strategy if that's what they were intending). I feel like it's time for Red, Green, and Purple to make a mark on this game while Yellow, Brown, and Orange have already done so, so it's kind of ironic the way the superteams ended up like that. Awww no more confessionals I loved those. That was a cute Temple mission. I really liked it. I can't believe Ben went for the final round against Kaisia. I don't know if I would make that risk. Then again, if he lost he might have been sent to Temple and sent home, so who knows (going back and editing: ironic that this actually happened). That's a lot of pressure. Even though she lost Kaisia is a tough chick. Brady also impressed me. He would have won against Brenden again if he didn't fall on the ground. I wonder why Green was safe from Temple. It doesn't seem like they have any strong ties to other teams. I feel like Orange would have protected Red and Brown/maybe Yellow would have protected Purple. Maybe sending them both was a compromise? I'm a little sad Red left; they seemed very chill. At the same time not having them there will make the game a little more competitive. It also shakes up the alliances a little. I feel like every team is sort of on their own now? Like I can't really place where Green is at all. Yellow has always played both sides. Purple and Brown I thought were in an alliance against Orange but yet Purple was sent to Temple. So maybe Orange and Brown have squashed their beef? WHO KNOWS. Can't wait for the next episode.

Whaaaaat just happened haha. I'm gonna start from the top.
Not surprised with who Gray gave their pieces to, but Orange has a LOT. They remind me of my team from my season so they need to start targeting them soon. I want them to win but they haven't really done a lot to earn it yet.
Three targeting missions in a row ends with the same teams almost winning and the same teams (Brown) losing all the time. Glad we finally saw a super team mission so it shows strength instead of friendships. Really surprised by who Purple chose, those were the two weakest teams to me. Glad Orange and Brown pulled out victorious! Can't believe Purple backed out on their alliance, why does no one want to work with Brown? Kind of glad Red left but was honestly pulling for purple to go.
Here goes my list: 1. Brown for being real and honest 2. Orange for being bad@ss bigggggg gapppp 3. Yellow I guess? 4. Hi green 5. Purple for betraying brown and thinking they are super strong for winning two temples
Excited for the next episode!

At the start of the episode I had decided that Purple and Green would be my temporary favorite teams this week... guess whose super team lost? Haha but they both survived! So that's good. Although I reeally liked Red team, too, so I'm sad to see them go. Honestly though, I probably would have picked Brown and Yellow to be on my superteam because they seem like the strongest at this point. Even if the filming was a little hard to follow, I loved the Endurance mission!! Sort of like Box Launch from E6. It really made me want to play in it. And oh goodness the Temple mission.. haha, it's crazy how something as simple as Swords could get so intense!! I was freaking out during the first round with Brady & Brenden! Apparently I was very vocal about it too because my grandma came in and was like, "Okay why aren't you breathing???" xD Brenden really does seem like such a nice person. It makes me like him a lot more than I thought at first. And I like Brady because he's funny haha. << Oh and Turner too! I still think Liz and Aimee are the strategists, although we didn't see a whole lot of Aimee in the last episode. Kaisia is really tough, maybe a little harsh at times, but she's also smart and perceptive when it comes to the game! (specifically thinking of her logic when explaining to Shanna why everyone thought Blue was a strong team) Damion and Kaeleigh remain my innocent little flowers of the Green team whom I do not know much about but still have a strange fondness for. Kallie and Hunter I haven't been able to form much of an opinion of? I don't understand why Kallie broke off the alliance with Brown, I don't think that was very cool since they were the only allies Brown had left. But she seems fun otherwise! And honestly all I can remember of Hunter was his awkward first interview hahaah with like, 7-second silences in between his sentences. I can relate, though; talking doesn't always come naturally to me either It's fascinating that there isn't a single team that I don't like. It makes the whole watching experience much nicer than it would be otherwise haha! (even though I love E5, watching it is a nightmare when you're rooting for Blue/Yellow and are against Purple/Green) Can't wait for episode 7!

*spoilerrrrrrsss*gaaAAAAHHH! BROWN!! I actually had a feeling going into the episode that either Brown or Yellow would leave next, and theeen the temple choices were announced and I was likE I KNEW IT. But I'm so sad!!! Turner and Liz were so funny and strategic and agh. They were sort of the underdogs, too, very easy to root for! But I'm glad Yellow is still in. The truth is, at this point in the series, I was going to be upset no matter who left haha. Honestly I'm still pulling for my Green Team, but if I had to order my choices for winning, I would say.... 1. Green 2. Purple 3. Yellow 4. Orange? Could be subject to change though, haha. Also, can I just say that I love how 3/4 final teams are the only Endurance colors that never won the actual show? Super cool! (oh, and i'm beast at sudoku. that challenge would've been my jam.^^)I can't believe we're down to the final four already!! So exciting!

CRYING FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE IT'S FINEEEEE.
So I was really surprised Red gave a piece to Brown like what? Brown had that mission in the bag, I can't believe they lost with such a good start. At this point I didn't feel as bad for sending them to temple, mainly because they had a fair chance to win the last few missions and never went to temple before. HOWEVER I don't really understand Purple's rationale... Why send Yellow and Brown who have one piece when Orange has FIVE and Green is tied for second? I understand not trying to make enemies but I believe Orange and Green are two of the weaker teams anyway. Boo Purple for turning on Brown, hope karma gets them. Either way aw Liz is so sweet and adorable, I'm glad she took the loss well. She reminded me of someone who actually would be on Endurance. Turner was really cool too. Sad to see them go!! I want Brown team autographs hahaha.
Now that Brown is gone here is who I'm rooting for... 1. Orange - They are playing a great social game and Kasia is so different from all the other competitors!! 2. Yellow - They are really nice and worked hard to get to where they are. 3. Green - I don't see them doing a lot... if they're playing an under the radar game it's getting old and I'd really like to see them step it up! 4. Purple - Turning on allies and seem to be missing the big picture of the game. However they are starting to earn the title of the "strongest team."
ALSO things I've noticed... Yellow team is literally E2 Yellow. Brenden is a lot like Shep - laid back, calm. Aimee is really sweet like Calley, not to mention they both REALLY look like those two, just sayin.. These eliminations are very similar to E3... Blue leaves first, Red leaves third, Brown leaves fourth. However maybe Gray and Green switched spots, meaning Green will be the Endurance champions. If Purple leaves next round I totally support this as fact.

MY CHIILDREENNN!!!!! I had a feeling they wouldn't win the whole thing, but still. What I personally don't get are the choices for Temple? The way I saw it, Yellow was in an amazing position to send Purple up again because A) Purple was the strongest team at that point, and B) They had already been up twice, so there was a good chance they would lose, therefore getting rid of your biggest competition. I just don't see the logic in keeping them, I guess. Ummm well, I'm glad I was blessed with the opportunity to see Green Team dominate a mission before they went home! :') They seriously rocked that challenge so much!! I knew they had to prove themselves at some point. So yaayy! Also, adding onto what I said in my last comment, now whichever team wins is going to be an Endurance first! Purple, Orange and Yellow never won the show so it'll be fun to see who prevails! Ugh but green, I'm still so saad I really loved the challenges for this round! I liked both of them in their respective seasons and in this version as well. They're also two missions I'd like to play myself one day haha. Final three, man, it's getting intense!!

Wellllll that episode was very surprising! I'm glad with how it went though. Green won a mission and then left, just like Orange E2 What I don't understand is why the teams don't take into consideration the pieces and the strength of other teams! I want to respect Yellow for being fair but at this point they were sent by Purple and are the second strongest team! I hope it doesn't come around to bite them. I think Yellow or Purple will win the temple mission and advance to the finals. Lately Orange has been sort of blinded by the competition and without confessionals it's really hard to understand motives. But I know you had to do it all in one day so it is not your fault! I really appreciate you posting these and putting all of this effort in, it's really fun to watch! Awesome point made my kwdrewfan, no Orange, Yellow, or Purple team has ever won before! That's an Endurance first! I really hope Purple goes to temple this round to see if they can tie the Blue team from Endurance 5 for most wins at temple. Right now here is what I predict. If the mission is based on physical strength, Purple will win. If the mission is based on intelligence, Yellow will win. Right now I see Yellow winning this game, with Purple if not. Here is what I'm hoping... 1. Yellow: They have worked really hard and are a fair and honest team. 2. Purple: They have done really well in challenges and although I don't agree with their decisions, they have overcame two temples and won their fair share. 3. Orange: I like their personalities but they haven't won anything in a long time. If they bring their A-game in the next episode this could change! My thoughts are all over the place, it's a lot harder when you have time restrictions. Still looks great though!

Just caught up!!! SO SAD THAT BROWN AND GREEN WENT HOME I totally agree with Mitch that Liz could definitely have been on the real Endurance!! Also Green seriously ROCKED that Endurance mission! I'm rooting for Yellow to win the whole thing. I think they've played a great game. I like Orange too...or, well, I like Kaisia. No offense Hunter but he's kind of a non-factor, lol. I think they need to step it up in the final 3 if they want to have any chance of winning, though. I'm not a fan of the Purple team but I actually really like them both as people. And I can respect how well they've been doing.

*SPOILERZ*
Bye Yellow! Aw I'm going to miss them. I think out of all the teams they definitely deserved to win the most. I knew Purple would make the finals especially when I saw it was a physical challenge. They have also really earned to make it to the finals. Orange really surprised me. I thought they would be such a strong team but they haven't really won a mission on their own. Right now I am still rooting for them because Purple betrayed Brown! Excited to see who the winners will be.
