Be The Survivor S38 - Sign Up Thresd - ("Quivering on the Edge of 'This Stinks-shun'")

Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen, and those of you who haven't yet decided. I am Mark "T-Bone" Burnett, your EPMB, the Yoda to an Orange Apprentice, your Master Manipulator and Ratings Liquidator... your Benevolent Pimp for every country unfamiliar with the words "minimum wage".

It's obvious that CtheBS' marketing department has run out of angles ... uh, exciting ways to differentiate our contestants... so we're throwing the most athletic, most annoying, most strategic, most cerebral and most anemic into an island fishbowl and calling it The Edge of Extinction.

Although we usually create tribes based on our contestants' resumes or primary life characteristics or prison records or Grinder profiles, that's not always enough. Apparently, we're using the same porn casting agents as always and throwing a net over the local bars, shelters and modeling agencies, so don't come crying to me.

Enjoy these collections of skin, bones and assorted organs as you select your "Edge of Extinction " "Be The Survivor" contestants.

We currently have 18 contestants, 4 of whom will be Returning Players.

At this time the cast has been announced, but not the tribes or the Character Stereotypes (i.e. Survivor Nerd, Former High School Jock, Doing This For My Dying Step-Uncle, Proving Myself... etc.)

Here's your Cast Members tapas menu:
