Stranded with a Million Dollars

​Gina and Alex decide not to use the temptation that will let one of them off the island early.

‘Stranded With a Million Dollars’ Finale: 40 Days and 40 Fights

“He cannot poop in every coconut.” These were words said on television last night as 'Stranded With a Million Dollars' concluded with four people making it to the end. But not before Cody relieved himself in not one, but two freshwater sources for the second time in consecutive episodes. Prob def a new record for most public dumps. There's a skit on Disc 2 of Biggie's Life After Death where the Notorious talks about being surprised that a woman wants him to literally stand over her and do a number 2. Biggie is confused. "I might shit on you after I hit it, I won't call you no more, shit on you like that." The punchline being that even though he's taken aback by this request, he still does it. For years, reality show contestants have been metaphorically shit on. Backstabs, blindsides, even using someone's toothbrush to clean the toilet. But now we have reached the apex. A grown man in squatting position, pulls his shorts down and two televised plops drop into the water underneath him. To quote the Biggie hook, "you nasty boy, you nasty."

‘Stranded With a Million Dollars’ Recap Episode 9: Thrive Nugget

Despite what Juliet would say about it, names matter. The convention by which we as a society choose to classify objects, our experiences, each other—all play a role in our relationships to those objects. To those experiences. To each other. And that is why “Thrive Nugget” is the nastiest, low down, gritty, and grimy name for an episode in all of television history. Because “thrive nugget” in the context of this episode is a literal piece of crap purposely put into an adversary’s drinking water with the hopes of poisoning them out of a game. To quote Onyx, “that is wilder than the shit from the tundra. Shiftee.”
