FEI LONG
Amanda - MOR4. I'd love to be able to give her CP, but I really don't feel it. It was kind of like the Todd's lackey story again. It was interesting that she got her way with the boot, but I doubt that scene was included for anything more than creating suspense.
Courtney - MORN4. I'm a big Courtney fan, but she even got on my nerves a little bit with the constant JR hate. (Why can't my favorites just get along?) But I don't think that just because all of her airtime focused on one thing that she automatically becomes one-dimensional. If it was like Raro last season and there was no justification for the hate whatsoever, I'd be more inclined to go with OTT. But I do think she was N here, and OTTN just doesn't fit.
Denise - MOR2. There was a bit of sympathy thrown in with the music, but I think most viewers were kind of disappointed that the plan was obviously falling through. Neutral.
Frosti - MOR2. Mostly just shown because he had to be--I almost want to say P, but I don't think it was shown as "Lucky break for Frosti" but "Amanda and Todd screwed up here." We're supposed to think "Good for him," but 30 seconds later, it's insignificant.
Jean-Robert - MORM3. Sue me, but I think that his definite negativity in some scenes was balanced by his "We loved the reward" confessional and the fact that I think a lot of viewers probably felt bad for the guy since Sherea's outburst seemed so random.
Sherea - MORN2. She was INV until after the IC, but good riddance.
Todd - CP5. Don't think I even need to explain this one, seems to be the universal rating here.
ZHAN HU
Erik - UTR1. Almost, almost threw in a P because I think his line about "Some of us not wanting to lose" (or something) earned him a high five from a lot of viewers. But he just wasn't there enough.
James - MORP4. It didn't veer into "underdog hero" territory as much as I expected, which was good. But this was still a very positive edit (which felt kind of forced IMHO). I know everyone says that his eating the baluts made him seem like the guy who just can't give up, but I actually was kind of disappointed that he helped mess up the plan.
Peih-Gee - MOR2. She basically had the same edit as Jaime, worry that they may have lost Sherea and Frosti, but she also had the bit with Sherea during the challenge.
JAIME DUGAN
UTR2
Jaime was basically in the same boat as Peih-Gee...except with even less content. She was brushed aside; we didn't even see anything more on her relationship with Erik. Her worries about Frosti and Sherea seemed to be thrown in at the last minute to quickly explain that Zhan Hu wasn't going to be throwing the challenge this week.
