..and does it stay on Wednesday nights? I will watch all because of Rod, look like Rob and Russell are on the same team. If it is on Wednesdays' I will have to move 'Middle' & 'Better with You' to PVR Survivor. I cannot do EST I have to tape NHL @ 4-7...all for Rob!

I noticed several of these players are there to win the money. Finally! Last season only 3 even mentioned the money. (One of them was Fabio who said he was there to meet cute chicks on the beach and to win the money. I think the other two were Tyrone and Brenda, but I could be remembering that incorrectly.) I think those that play for the money tend to play harder and better. I like a lot of strategy. I hope Russell changes things up some. It's going to annoy me if he's same old Russell. I enjoy watching his deviousness, but the ego, "dumb" women talk and HII talk ... well...I've had enough of that from him. In fact, I hope there are no HII this season.

FYI: The button has been updated. If you still see the old castaways when you click on it, right-click outside the panel and click 'Reload' to retrieve the new version.

Interesting that all the castaways with the exception of Rob and Russell have a tribe designation. I would love to see Rob & Russell on the same tribe BUT working together this time.....it would/could be epic.

Saw an hour preview for the show - I think on the TV Guide channel but don't remember. If you take Russ and Rob out of the equation, I really liked the rest of the cast. I really hope both Russ and Rob are out early so I can then enjoy the drama.

Nick, I agree. Not only do they look alike and are about the same age, Matt's bio gives off Fabio type vibes. I wonder if the two tribes have a challenge and the winner gets to pick Rob or Russell.

Oh I hope they do that! I suspect most of them will want Rob so it would kind of be winner gets Rob, and Russell is the booby prize. That would make me happy.

I'm hoping for the same thing! Would love to hear Russels rant after the winning team picked Rob. And would love to hear the losing team tell a tale to Russel about how they really wanted him anyway. LOL.

From the preview I saw, it sounds like Matt was cast the same way as Fabio. I really wish they'd keep it to those who are willing to audition.

I also wish they didn't have to use a lot of recruits, but I thought this was a pretty good article on why they do it so much these days: Casting about for reality TV hopefuls [...] A decade into the genre's dominance, the applicant pool is polluted with wannabe actors and fame seekers desperate to be the next Snooki or Kate Gosselin, and the personas they display in their video auditions are often transparent knockoffs of the reality archetypes viewers have come to know: America's sweetheart, the hick, the witch, the dumb jock, the party girl. [...] The part about the "schools" which train applicants was pretty interesting, too.

I suspect this is being talked about in the spoiler threads, but as the info isn't a spoiler I thought some of you might be interested. Apparently a Survivor fan was sued by CBS for spoiling last season's show, and told CBS that Russell Hantz was the one leaking the information to him! He has a lot of email proof, and according to CBS: The Survivor cast members’ contract states that contestants may not reveal "the elimination of contestants and the selection of any winner." The penalty for doing so is "liquidated damages" of $5 million. The spoiler only gave up Hantz because Hantz was trying to implicate someone else! I wonder if they will go after Hantz! http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2011-01-31/survivor-spoiler-exposes-russell-hantz-as-his-source/

"trying to implicate someone else" - ever the gentleman, isn't he?

I just saw the Survivor Preview Show on the TV Guide channel. I didn't get to watch all of it, but it looks pretty good from what I did see.

I agree Gemma - It was a pretty good little preview show. After my disappointment of Rob and Russ being back, it was good to meet the new people.

Kitt, I have been about bursting all day today wanting to discuss the Daily Beast's revelations of the the admission of the guy who spoiled both seasons of Survivor Nicaragua that his source was Russell Hantz. I am guessing the show's producers can't do much with Russell right now, since his THIRD season of Survivor is about to air. I think it serves the Survivor producers right that Russell Hantz did them as dirty as he did his fellow players. When you canonize a weasel all you get is a weasel in a fancy hat. It should be interesting to see how the Russell angle plays out after this season is over and CBS can address Russell's confidentiality agreements.

Yeah they're a bit stuck right now - presumably they want him to be a big talking point of next season, and want to ride any publicity he gives them. I bet it makes some of them glad they have something to hold over him though, I can't imagine he's easy to work with.

What's that old joke about the girl picking up the cold snake who promises not to bite her, and then, tada, he bites her? And she says, "You promised not to bite me!" Then the snake says, "But I'm a snake." Sounds like CBS finally got bitten by it's favorite snake, lol.
