Is this where we want to put Jeff's blog? Or do we want a separate thread? I'll put it here for now:http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/09/16/jeff-probst-survivor-nicaragua-premiere-episode-1/
"...right now Marty and Jimmy T seem more concerned with Jimmy Johnson than they do anything else. That is not a good sign for the older group."
Here's who Jeff has identified as "standouts" so far (doesn't necessarily mean they'll go far):
Older tribe: Jimmy T., Holly, Jane and Mary
Younger tribe: Shannon, Fabio, Kelly B, Sash and Naonka
He seems to have the most positive things to say about Jane and Fabio:
"...Jane is tailor made for this show. She is no-nonsense, has a great work ethic and she personifies the idea of “where there is a will, there is a way.”
"Fabio is perhaps my favorite. I am a huge fan of Fast Times At Ridgemont High and Fabio is Survivor’s version of Jeff Spicoli...Whether it’s the massive splinter he got in his arch moments into the show or the pincher on the finger, he’s funny. Best of all, he seems to have a really good sense of humor about himself. You gotta like that."
Interesting that he doesn't mention Brenda or Chase.
