PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Thanks FP. I'm glad we only have two returning losers...oups, I meant stars! I prefered the diversity of last season's cast but what can you do?One thing that jumps at me is that they put Russell on the team that will have 5 guys. It shows their preference but it could come back to bite them in the butt since Rob will be more needed on his tribe. (There was a reason why the original Yaxha had 3 weak women while most of the Nakhum women were very athletic.) (Please ignore my post if source spoilers contradict me.)

Estee said this: One thing that really jumps out at me are the great numbers of the cast that are from California.Never mind just being from California, Grant, David and Ashley are all from West Hollywood, (aka the gayest place on Earth according to Tosh.0). According to Wikipedia, it has a population of 34,675, 41% of whom are gay men. Who knows if that's accurate though? Regardless, there's a good chance some of these three may have crossed paths with each other in the past.

Leaving the majority of people, (the other 49,914 59%...everyone, aside from gay men) living within the WeHo neighborhood, as mactors.
They probably see each other at reality show auditions and hang out in reality-star owned clubs/bars.

I've been strong through 21 seasons now...made it through Coach (twice!), Randy, NaOnka, Amandazzzz (multiple times!) and I've remained a fan.But now...I don't think I can do it. I don't think I can take any more RussHell. Wasn't 2 seasons of that idjit enough? Really, Probst & EPMB, we don't love to hate him, we just hate him. (YMMV, of course, but I don't think I'm alone in this...my detestation of all things RussHellHantz...) May he be the first boot!

30. "RE: S22 Cast" |
From what I've picked up from missyae (sorry, I cannot link the exact quotes)1) The original concept involved Richard Hatch as one of the two (Hatch vs. Russell?), but the IRS would not allow him to have a passport until his tax issues were resolved. 2) It is not EPMB who loves Russell, in fact he can't stand him. JEFF loves what he brings to the show. 3) There are rumors the two were offered a very attractive appearance fee as a minimum guaranteed remuneration. 4) The two are allowed to play for the grand prize. 5) The other contestants were not thrilled when they learned of the twist, didn't want former players in the mix with their shot at sole survivor. 6) Most will be happy because Rob outlasts Russell.

But still no acknowledgment of the return of Rob and Russell, who are identified as "Former Castaway 1" and "Former Castaway 2." http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor/cast/ Individual links also include video.

Why you think you will be the sole SURVIVOR: In my eyes, I'm flawless. A significant part of my job is selling myself - making myself more appealing than my client. I do it because it's fun.

24. "Dalton Ross/EW Meet the Cast" |
What, no video?http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20354695_20456240_20895815,00.html Brief interviews with each one, asked them all who is their least fave, most said Russell. Julie LIKES Russell (and is on his team). On most it appears they were interviewed before the former Survivors were sprung on them, as one says she would hate another Guatemala twist. Steve says he won't let his camp be like Russell's -- and is on R's team. At least two applied, Estee -- (Rooster, for sure, and surely Julie), one applied to TAR. There is a separated at birth Fabio with the exact same strategy (Matt Elrod) -- of course these people hadn't seen 21 when they played. Or is he a Fabio/Chase hybrid, as he played football? Dude is probably toast being on Russell's team, but will be interesting to see if the innocent surfer boy schtick works second time around.

29. "RE: Dalton Ross/EW Meet the Cast" |
I quickly watched the interviews and Russell certainly has a tough row to hoe. A lot of people named him as their least favorite player and at least three of them have been assigned to "his" tribe. It should be interesting watching.

26. "RE: CBS bios up" |
Thanks for posting DearAbby, and nice to see you!  This will be fun, I have to admit. I can't wait to see how some of this plays out. First of all I would bet that the first boot off of RussHell's team would be an alpha female...If I had to bet it would be the older woman, Julie Wolf, who describes herself as "Hard-headed, outspoken and spoiled." Sounds like that is a recipe for disaster....now whether or not she amends her game, we'll see. Another narcissist on RussHell's team, David Murphy, "In my eyes, I'm flawless".....imo, there's really only room for one...and we all know that RussHell won't tolerate that. These two may come head to head sooner rather than later, and I'm sure he can talk circles around RussHell. Steve Wright is going to have a very difficult time on RussHell's team.... RussHell will go for the females for alliance mates in his tribe, I'm sure. Krista, Sarita, and Stephanie are all likely candidates. If I had to pick a first boot off of Rob's team, it would be Krista, the oldest female...more than likely it will be the weakest challenge link....unless something really obvious pops up with their social interactions....loudmouth, lazy, sickness, etc.

34. "RE: S22 Cast" |
Here are some interesting nuggets about 4 of the contestants from their hometown newspapers. (These are all posted on Survivor Fever, or see links below)- Ashley Underwood The more I read about her, the more I think she's going to be a player! (Despite my initial impression based on her bio). She's a nurse, she has her own business, she played basketball in Europe, etc. Seems like a smart and very determined lady. This article says she will have done her homework and come totally prepared: "Underwood previously told the Morning Sentinel that she spent months preparing for the Miss USA pageant by watching videos of winning contestants and observing how they walked, turned and posed. "It's kind of like in basketball when I used to study film," Underwood said at the time." This http://www.pressherald.com/life/former-miss-maine-takes-on-survivor_2011-01-11.html - Andrea Boehlke . Here's another contestant that I thought I wouldn't like, but now that I'm learning more about her, I see that she's smart and will be a player. I wrongly assumed she was a recruited mactor, but this article says that she sent an audition tape. Her dad says that after being selected, she "embarked on a training regimen that included workouts, puzzles, shooting a slingshot and even butchering and cooking a chicken." (It also says she's a big fisher -- and I bet she'll know how to make fire too.) The dad also says that Survivor is the only TV show their family watched and they've been huge Survivor fans from the beginning. "I think she's a very determined person, and she doesn't like to lose," Royal Boehlke said. "She's always competitive, so I really think it's going to work out." Andrea's one of my faves at this point, now that I know she's a huge fan and auditioned and has a lot of spunk. Since she and Ashley are on the same team, I can definitely see these two ladies forming an alliance and working together. Wish they were on Russell's team so they could pretend to be his Natalie! http://www.sheboyganpress.com/article/20110112/SHE0101/101120391/Andrea-Boehlke-of-Random-Lake-to-compete-on-Survivor- - Rooster I liked him already just from the fact that he applied 3 times and seems like a Big Tom type...but interesting that in this article it says that Kiser and teammate Ronnie Smith placed second in an adventure race show called "Back to the Woods." The producer of that shows says "the way Kiser attacked the adventure race will serve him well on Survivor, with his zest for life and ability to have fun while taking the game seriously as a serious competitor." He also says that Rooster will be underestimated. Based on the initial vidcaps and promos, looks like Rooster is being positioned as a prominent character or maybe even a fan favorite. I can see Rooster getting along with Russell and doing the whole southern boy thing...I think/hope Rooster is smarter than Big Tom...and he does have that long beard in the airport shots, although he could have grown that at Losers Lodge. http://www2.tricities.com/news/2011/jan/12/survivor-not-first-reality-tv-experience-ralph-kis-ar-771171/ - Krista Klump Not much in this article, other than her grandfather was the co-inventor of Kraft Velveeta cheese! But based on her video, she seems to be similar to Ashley and Andrea in that she's not the dumb blond type and there's more than meets the eye.
http://blog.al.com/live/2011/01/former_auburn_cheerleader_on_t.html I started out thinking I was going to hate this season based on all the pageant girls, etc. but a lot of the contestants are turning out to be more interesting than I originally gave them credit for -- definitely going to watch the first few episodes before giving up on this season!

35. "It's official! CBS announce Rob and Russell today" |
01.13.2011 THIS JUST IN... ...from CBS Entertainment CBS ANNOUNCES THE TWO FORMER CASTAWAYS, RUSSELL HANTZ AND "BOSTON" ROB MARIANO, WHO WILL JOIN THE TRIBES ON "SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND"
LOS ANGELES - Jan. 13, 2011 - CBS announced today that two former Survivors, Russell Hantz and "Boston" Rob Mariano, will join the 16 previously announced castaways on SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND when the series returns for its 22nd season, Wednesday, Feb. 16 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Having never been awarded the title of Sole Survivor, Hantz and Mariano return to compete for the one million dollar prize and one last shot at redemption. Each one will join a separate tribe of new castaways at the start of the game, but it's up to the tribe to decide if they will welcome the knowledge of an experienced veteran, or view these former castaways as a threat in the ultimate battle to outwit, outplay and outlast. Here's a link to the video:

36. "EW article about Rob and Russell " |
According to this new article on EW, the "former players will each join a tribe after a drawing of concealed buffs and — contrary to internet rumors — they will not be offered any immunity, meaning either one of them could be voted out first (and sent to Redemption Island, where they would be forced to compete to reenter the game)."In the video that accompanies the article, Dalton Ross says that the team that got Rob was very happy, but the team that got Russell was clearly disappointed at first but then "rallies" and tries to make a show of being happy. So the video interview was obviously taped after the 1st day takes place. Jeff says that he doesn't think Rob or Russell will get voted out first. He also thinks that although Rob will have an easier time of it at the beginning, Rob will have a harder time later in the game if he makes the merge, because he's popular and could win (vs. Russell who is hated and might be carried as a dog to the finals). Interesting point. Russell told Jeff that he won't play the game the same way twice, so it will be interesting to see if/how he changes things up. Jeff says that Russell does typically stay true to his core alliance, so it could be a good thing to have Russell on your team if you're one of his 2 or 3 alliance mates. http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/01/13/survivor-boston-rob-russell-redemption-island/

37. "RE: EW article about Rob and Russell " |
LAST EDITED ON 01-13-11 AT 09:20 PM (EST)I think Jiffy is losing his mind. Albeit, I would LOVE to see Rob kick RussHell's a$$. But, I think "RussHell Fatigue" is a clear and present danger... I have never considered Robfadda a villain either. I may have initially thought he was an a$$, but he very quickly won me over in Marquesas. In All-Stars he was a very, very positive force....we used to refer to his tribe as the Happy Chappy's as they were always singing. Rob stayed true to his alliance until the bitter end...I agree, Rob has always given it his all, and he's a graceful loser as well, something RussHell is not. Looking forward to this contest!
ETA: Has RussHell been admiring Coach's tattoos a little too much? Is that a big new tat that RussHell is sporting?

39. "Jeff's Cast Assessment Video " |
http://video.tvguide.com/Survivor/Survivor+Redemption+Island++Jeff+Probst+Cast+Assessment/6951372?autoplay=trueA few interesting nuggets: - David has the highest IQ ever on Survivor - Jeff "loves" Steve and would love to see him "go deep" - Ralph/Rooster is "hands down" his favorite new Survivor - He says that Mike is a strategy player and could go far - Serita is one of his favorites, and he thinks she'll last a while - Jeff thinks Stephanie will be the 1st one voted out Also, Jeff says that ONE person will come back in the game from Redemption Island. Not sure if that was already confirmed? Perhaps we shouldn't take this literally. I'll have to look back at what Mark Burnett, etc. said in earlier interviews on this topic.

Thanks, Vince! So maybe we shouldn't take the "one" returnee literally. I'm going to bring the transcript over in a minute so we can look at it more closely.

42. "Transcript from Jeff Cast Assessment Video" |
Here's the transcript from Jeff's cast assessment video. Thanks to Survivor Fever!--------
Jeff Probst: We have something fun happening this season. Kristina: They're not going to know what hit 'em. Rooster: It's always about me. Ashley: Dang. Steve: Ahhhh. Sarita: Game on. Probst: I can feel it. I can feel it for them. Stephanie: We're a good group. Kristina: Really. Watch it. Probst: Sarita is a favorite from the moment I met her and it's just about how she carries herself. She's very confident. She's lived long enough to not be excited about things. Sarita: I've managed through many a divorce, many a move. I can survive with the best of them. Probst: I think she'll last for awhile and if she can get past that merge and really deep into the game, she's going to be a threat to win. Matthew reminds me physically a lot of Fabio who was on last year but he couldn't be more different. Other than the head toss. Matthew: The long blonde hair, people automatically think I'm from California when, nope, I'm from Nashville. Not much surfing going on there. Probst: I like Matthew. He seems to be pretty introspective. But you better watch out. That smile might be a mask hiding a bit of a wolf. Julie Wolfe, I like Julie. She's a firefighter. She's a no BS kind of woman. Julie: I have a personality at work where I have to be hardcore and kind of a #####. Probst: She's got a stocky build that looks like she might have been a bodybuilder at some point and she's got a great enthusiasm. Mike is Captain America, good-looking guy, very nice to talk to. He's definitely a strategy player. What are the rules again, how can I exploit them? This is a game and that's a guy after my heart because that's how I approach Survivor as well. This isn't about friends, this is about a million dollars. Mike could definitely make it far and Mike has the social skills to win. Hopefully Andrea will break the mold that we've had recently of the young, usually blonde, often a pharmaceutical salesperson, who, doesn't really make a big splash but somehow finds her way towards the end. Andrea seems to have something else going on. Andrea: I've been raised on a farm my whole life and hunting since I was 12 and fishing and camping. So I'm actually not too worried about the elements. I think I'm mentally tough and I don't think I'm going to crack. Probst: Phillip is going to be in or out. He's got a line that he plans on laying on his tribe. Phillip: When I got out of the service I became a special agent with the Department of the Defense. Probst: I used to have access to all these secrets. Which is all true. But when you hear it, you kind of go, huh? When he told me he was gonna do it, I said, okay, good luck to ya. The question is going to be, for Phillip, do people buy it. Natalie is so young in life that I'm actually surprised she's on our show. Natalie: I love being the little baby. I feel like I'm the baby at whatever I do. Probst: She impressed us with her gumption. She just kept telling us, don't judge me too quickly. I know I'm young but I've been through some stuff and I know how to dig deep. We liked her and we took a chance. She's a wildcard for us. Steve Wright, I love this guy. I love him not because he's a football player, he's big guy, I like him because he loves Survivor and he's enthusiastic about Survivor. He knows how to pump himself up. Steve: Just the A-type, pow, will come out. Probst: He knows what competition is and I'm guessing he's probably pretty good at social dynamics. I would love to see Steve go deep in the game. Ashley. High hopes for Ashley. She was in the pageant world. Ashley: People don't respect pageant girls. I'm not stupid. I'm a nurse by education. I played basketball professionally overseas. Probst: She's going to be able to help her tribe in challenges. When you're a woman who is attractive and you contribute, your chances for staying around as long as you have men on your tribe, are very high. David Murphy holds the record of the highest IQ, ever, on Survivor. He's a defense attorney for high profile cases in Los Angeles and I asked him, how do you defend somebody that is guilty and he said, I never ask them if they're guilty. The way he answered that question, I think, gives you some insight into how he might play this game. (Alliance with Russell??) David: It sounds awful to say it but I'm going to have to bring myself down to their level. Probst: Krista Klumpp is a question mark at this point for me. If she folds it won't surprise me and if she turns out to be this really strong pillar on her tribe, it won't surprise me, either. Krista: I like to kind of prove people wrong sometimes. Probst: Grant, interesting dude. Former football player turned yoga instructor. Very much has that vibe about him. I just don't know which is the real guy. Will the competition side of him that took him through football come out or will the balanced, nurturing, let's all get along yoga side come out? If he is lucky and he can blend the two, a little competitive, a little nurturer, he can do very well. Francesca is this big beaming light of energy. What I like most about Francesca is her mouth. She has got nicknames already for all these people. Francesca: Probably the most entertaining thing about me is that I just like to talk trash about people. Probst: Hopefully she is as spirited on the show as when we met her in casting. Francesca: In the end we'll see who is the last one standing and I think it's going to be me. Probst: Stephanie Valencia, if I'm right, will be one of the first people voted out, if not the first. Stephanie: My mom says I can be rude at times but I don't think I'm being rude. Probst: I hope I'm wrong. If my hunch is right, Stephanie, right now out on the beach in the rain already, hours into this game, is overwhelmed and wishing she was back home having a glass of wine and something to eat. Stephanie: I'm here and my heart's in it and that's all I need to worry about. Probst: Ralph Kiser, hands down, my favorite new Survivor. Ralph: I'll make you laugh your ##### off. Probst: I love him the minute he walked him. Ralph: I'll say words that aint properly spoken, you know, supposed to be said right. Probst: He is a hard worker. He's got a girlfriend, he still takes care of his wife. He built a house from scratch. He works a full time job and runs a farm. And he's got hair everywhere. What more do you want from someone on Survivor? Ralph: Enjoy life while it lasts cause you're dead and gone. Have a hell of a good time. Probst: Kristina Kell, another favorite. She's not 21. I think the enthusiasm of someone who's lived for awhile is infectious. Kristina: I told medic, don't you dare pull me out of this thing. Unless my arm gets chopped off and even then if you can like bundle it up... like don't. Probst: I think Kristina is probably going to play a very tough game. If I had to guess I think she might be one of the people who makes some big moves to try to win. Kristina: Mark my words, watch, I'm gonna win. Probst: The thing with Rob and Russell is that for whatever reason they are now icons on our show. If you talk about one of the most evil people that ever played, you'll say Russell. Truth is if you dig a little deeper, he's also one of the most successful. Nobody has had two alliances go all the way to the end like Russell has. So in a weird way, he's extremely loyal as long as you're on the right side. Boston Rob is fascinating in that he started as a villain. He was despised by people and somehow he transformed into a hero. The good news for both Rob and Russell and everybody else is even when you're voted out, you're not out this season. Redemption Island awaits and one of those guys or girls is going to come back into the game. I have a feeling we're going to be talking about this season in high regard when it's over.

43. "Article about Ashley" |
In this article Ashley says she tried out for Amazing Race with a pageant friend -- the friend made it but she didn't. So then she set her sights on Survivor. Sounds like she did a lot of prep work for Survivor, including:"...workouts in the gym and getting into "really good shape," hearkening back to her basketball days at Cony and the University of Maine. Her goal was to put on more weight, more muscle and "bulk up," so she'd unmistakably be the "tough athletic girl. Her workouts included weight training, cardio, swimming and running.... "She also aimed to acclimate herself to the sweltering temperatures of Nicaragua by regularly hydrating herself, going to the sauna, and even cranking up the heat while driving in her car. "Underwood also refreshed her memory on outdoors skills -- starting a fire, fishing, withstanding the elements... "There was also mental preparation....In basketball, we used to study film, and honestly that's what I did here. I watched so many past seasons, especially the recent ones, really studying peoples' personalities, how people dealt with certain situations, and figuring out: how am I my own person?" http://www.kjonline.com/news/former-miss-mainebenton-woman-nowsurvivor-contestant_2011-02-03.html
