I was just about the post a link to the article but see you're all already discussing it. The redemption duels sound interesting. Rob / Russell -- hope it's both of them coming back but if only one I'd have to choose Rob. RE, the future of the show -- I'd be very sad if Probst left the show. I'm very fond of him. I hope he sticks around. Tntitanfan -- Phil has been the host of the Amazing Race since episode 1. The only show I can think of where they have changed hosts is Top Chef, which had Katie Lee Joel in season 1 and swapped to Padme for every season since. I guess maybe you could also include Solitary, which changed Val's voice after season 1.

Didn't The Mole have a change of hosts?

I was wondering about that too Lexie. I know Anderson Cooper was a host, and I know there was a different host when the mole came back a year or two ago, so I guess you could count that as a host change.

Thanks to all of you who have hoped and helped to redeem me from sinility! At this point in time it may be an uphill battle, but I appreciate the help. Yes indeed, The Mole was a fav show so that may have been the one I was thinking of! How sad that a show that required folks to be SMART left the air -

Yes, the mole went through a host or two. But Phil has always been the host of TAR. I do believe the two of 'em were in the running together for Survivor; Jeff got the part for Survivor and Phil picked up hosting duties for TAR when it started the following season.

I agree with the earlier posters - as much as I love Jeff, and would very much miss him, I don't watch because of him. I hope they would keep the show going. And if the spoilers are true about Rob and Russell, I'll only be watching if they also spoil him NOT winning; I cannot stand him or his play, and couldn't bear to see it rewarded.

I hear what you guys are saying, but.... 1) It's Mark Burnett who is saying he will not go on without his "STAR". He must think he knows something we don't know, or he is trying to put the "guilt trip" on Jeff. I, also, would watch without Jeff. 2) I'm not sure if Rob or Russell can win, since they have already been paid mega-bucks up front to do the show. That part is not clear yet. My feeling is that this all started from the Reunion show when Rob challenged Russell, and Russell took him up on it. Supposedly, Jeff is the one that wanted to go forward with this premise. So...it's just got to be a Rob tribe against a Russell tribe, and like the spoiler said...both Rob and Russell are exempt from getting the boot prior to the merge.

La la la LA la . .. I don't think Probst is anywhere near exhausted of this show, he seems every bit as enthusiastic as he ever did. And with the money he makes and the fun he gets to have, my prediction is he'll stay with the show as long as they'll have him.

Russell's head is big enough as it is. I am his facebook friend and have chatted with him several times. He is very tight lipped about the show but other than that, his ego is grown even more than most think. This is a very interesting turn of events.

I wish this thread wasn't ahead of the current season's thread. I know that's a minor complaint but I just had to say it! Still not reading spoilers though.

Kona, I don't know if Richard can leave the US yet. Isn't he still on parole on his tax evasion sentence?

There would be no reason to bring Richard back - he's not involved in the grudge match between Rob and Russell. Richard is soooooooo 19 seasons ago.

Although Russell has previously mentioned a desire to go up against Richard (claiming he's a better player than Dick).

Maybe Boston Rob should be the new host, he's been on nearly as many season's as Jeff has.

Well, this is way too much info for me to gather and bring over when OFG from Survivor Blows has done such a great job of it already. *************************** Outfrontgirl: 10-25-10 "missyae & other source spoilers S22 -- Rob vs. Russell" There's been lots of info coming out and missyae has spoiled (for now) four other contestants and the first episode dynamics. Missyae has confirmed the following contestants. He has said something like this season they cast the best of those who almost got on. Contestants spoiled as of 10/24: Rob Mariano Russell Hantz Carrie Prejean (Miss California USA 2009) Ashley Underwood (Miss Maine 2009) Krista Klumpp (former Auburn U cheerleader and delegate to Miss Alabama) Kimbo Slice R vs R 1 - Rob and Russell are players and possibly mentors of their tribes: 2 - Neither Rob nor Russell can have immunity, as Rob got votes the very first TC. 3 - Both Russell and Rob are voted out, post-merge. 4 - Rob Mariano outlasts Russell. TWIST -- Redemption Island Sept 27th: Reality Blurred analyzes twist from info on leaked call sheets http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/archives/survivor_22/2010_Sep_27_redemption TDT spec: http://www.truedorktimes.com/s22/spoilers/index.htm There was an Israeli Survivor that had a twist where voted off players get to battle for the chance to come back in the game. Something like: Post-merge boots first go to Redemption Island instead of Ponderosa. Once there are two, they duel, and the loser goes to Ponderosa. Each time there is a TC, there is a duel between the newbie and the current person on RI, until the F5. After that voted off person engages with the current champion of RI, the winner rejoins the game as the new F5 person (or the same one comes back). The next F5 boot and F4 boots are permanent. EPISODE 1 HII CARNAGE BOOT SPOILER missyae: 10/24 On Eppy 1, Carrie Prejean finds a hidden immunity idol on DAY ONE. Russell's tribe wins the immunity challenge so Rob's has to go to Tribal Council. Kimbo wants Rob out and starts to gain support for his move. He has the votes to get 'er done. Carrie Prejean gives Rob her immunity idol and they then vote for Kimbo. Votes are read, Rob's votes do not count. Kimbo goes bye bye in episode 1. Don't mess with Boston Rob on his home court Kimbo. Maybe inside your caged ring you could win, but not on Survivor. This vote does lead to a division within Rob's tribe. He does pick up another alliance partner though. Boston Rob and Carrie Prejean, only on Survivor!!!!

Zippidy doo dahhh... zippidy daaaaaaaaaaay I just can't believe that Rob and Russell don't have immunity pre-merge. I can't imagine any team keeping Russell unless he had immunity. I would think he would be the first one voted out when his tribe went to TC.

That's what blew my mind, also, Lexie..... ******************************** I had read, and brought over information, that Rob and Russell had immunity pre-merge, but if Rob received votes at the very first TC, then that was what OFG was referring to in the above post. I've got to go find out who Carrie Prejean is. So many posters at the other sites are completely turned off by her being on Survivor.

Carrie P is an example of stunt casting, IMHO. Is this a bad sign for the Survivor franchise? Thought putting Jimmy on this season was a bad sign. Now this. I love Survivor but it hurts that they cast this homophobe. I'll still watch, but grrr. Oh well, hope she doesn't win the season.

Ginger, Carrie Prejean is the former Miss USA contestant who was blindsided by Perez Hilton during the Q&A at the pageant regarding gay marriage. Carrie won't last too long out there as I don't think she's physically cut out for it.

I have to tell you guys this. Last Wednesday I had lunch with my daughter. I brought up Survivor, and she said she and hubby were not watching it this season. They could not get interested. I told her that next season would be Russell's team against Rob's team, and she couldn't wait to get home and later tell hubby so they could watch next season. Evidently that premise really turned her on for watching...............(LOL)
