Sorry, I hadn't read the article yet. That's what I get for not reading before I speak...LOL!

Stopped watching Russell's first season after just a few episodes, never watched his second, and will not watch this one. I didn't even like watching Survivor commercials he was in. I don't find him at all entertaining.

I can take or leave Rob. I certainly understand why people loathe him, but he's pulled out some interesting strategic moves on this show and TAR that I can respect.

I just don't understand the appeal of Russell at all.

I don't understand the appeal either. The only thing I can think of is that it is kind of like watching some kind of lethal snake...they send shivers down your spine yet you are fascinated by them.

Rob really endeared me on Heroes vs Villains. He has mellowed with age (and fatherhood) and really was trying to lead/mentor his team last time. And he was really good at spatial puzzles. I'd love to have his experience on my team initially (then vote him off after the merge).

Russell? ICK!!! What a manipulator. I'm sure no one on his team will trust him with ANYTHING. Except maybe to carry firewood (if you are watching him the whole time).

Grew to like and respect Rob on Heroes VS Villains.
My revulsion for pathetic manipulator Russel, on the other hand, is boundless.

I agree Roxip. Russel is fascinating to watch, like a black widow or a scorpion or something else that repulses me but fascinates me. Snake is a perfect description. I can't wait for this season.

I feel in love watching Rob and Amber fall in love on Allstars.

I remember Robs first season I didnt like him, he and his buddy out there were totally lazy and useless...what was the other guy's name? you never hear about him at all

I have loved Rob since I first heard his Boston accent. I also really like the fact that he does not "play dumb!" Of course, sometimes it is hard to tell when people are "playing" and when they are really dumb!

I am so disappointed! What is this - like Rob's tenth try? Instead of getting to know the new people, we will have to listen to the 2-R's constantly tell us how much smarter they are then everyone else. No thanks

Well, Kappy, since neither of the two R's have immunity, if the players like them as little as you do, they will be gone soon, and you can come back and enjoy the rest of the season with us!

I wonder what makes the producers of the show think everyone wants to see these guys again? I'll watch, because I like the show, but I hope the tribes vote off Russell fairly quickly. As far as Rob, I kinda root for the guy but I want to see new people more than him. If he is a good enough leader, I won't mind him sticking around a while, but hopefully he's gone before the real meat of the game gets going after the merge.

Unfortunately, in this season, the producers have set it up so that a vote isn't enough to get rid of Rob or Russell. They have to lose at Redemption Island, too.

The real set up is that we are certain to see a show down between Russell and Rob at Redemption Island. No matter how they have to work it out, those two will fight it out one-on-one. We are the ones being set up.

Where, oh where, is Heyilori? Isn't she the one that always sets up the Castaways thread with the bios?

Rob should defeat Russell at any Survivor themed challenge.

If they have a showdown, it'll be TV Gold for CBS.

Rob is smart; Russell is sly. There is a vast difference!

Rob's 4th Survivor.
Russell's 3rd show.

Could Rob pass Pavarti's record of days on the show if he makes it past the merge?3
