Hey, so I've been watching the videos on the early show site ( http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/01/28/earlyshow/series/survivor/main596466.shtml ) and the 'Video Profiles' on the CBS All Star Website ( http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor8/index.shtml )these interviews seem to be taken at the same time (same clothing), and it seems that the survivors know who's on their tribes. I'm pretty sure that the survivors had a little vacation time together before they were shipped off to the islands, and I think that these interviews were taken during this time.
It's also evident that they have no idea who's on the other tribes.
Here are a few bites that I found interesting:
Ethan in the early show segment said: "Everyone's back, we got the jerk,we got the snake, we got the nice guy, we got the hot chick, we got the mom, " Isn't he rattling off the members of his tribe?
jerk-rudy, snake-jerri, nice guy-rupert, hot chick-jenna, mom-tina.
In her profile Shii Ann says she doesn't know how many tribes there are on her profile, which would make sense if she knew the other people on her tribe or how many days it's gonna take. She Also talks about beating RICHARD. perhaps an early target.
In the early show of Saboga, Jenna says Jerri's name when talking about how she respects her decision to do a little porno. It sounds like she'd be open to a 'softer, more human' Jerri.
The Early Show segment of Chapera, Amazon Rob says he knows that Boston Rob is there, and says that Boston Rob played a bad game.
Amber gave this interesting quote in her profile : I'm well liked, I think, among all the poeople, and I'm gonna use that to my advantage. I'm well liked, now, among the girls and the guys.
Rupert, talking about Chapera, says that he thinks that the survivors from older seasons (everyone else on his team) have gone soft from the media coddling.
In her profile Sue says she hates corperate people, and she said that the passed winners pissed all their money away. (a little animosity to past winners?)
So this isn't of much pure spoiling value (as the game hadn't formally begun), but it gives you an impression of the early tribal dynamics. Already, it seems that Robs may react against each other, and Jerri isn't (immediately) hated by everybody. Also it enforces what we've been hearing about animosity against past winners.
Strangely, I can't get the Saboga Tribe Video to play on the early show website, only the audio... Maybe they don't want spoilers picking apart their clips?
