Lordy, lordy - how I miss my mind! I had it on the wrong (August) page of my day-by-day calendar! Sorry, all! <sneaks away when no one is looking!>

BUT, on the plus side, we now have a thread all ready and waiting when it does start. I had to ponder for several minutes how to do nineteen in Roman numberals!

This is basically exactly what the TV Commercial said -

IGN TV: What can you say about Survivor: Samoa?

Jeff Probst: A very aggressive season from the participants and from Samoa. We lost a couple of people to evacuations and we emerged with, I think, one of the most notorious villains. When you think about how many years we've been on, to break into that ranking… you gotta play. And this person said from day one, "I'm coming here to tear it up and either go home early or I'm gonna be here late, but nowhere in between." And they lived up to their word!
IGN: So, how would you rank Samoa?

Probst: Well, here's the thing. After [Survivor:] Gabon and [Survivor] Tocantins, I thought Tocantins would be one of our most favorite and Gabon would be an also-ran. It turned out the audience really liked Gabon and I think they thought Tocantins was okay. So I might be done predicting! Because I'm not right very often! I can say about Samoa that there are some extremely memorable moments. I can think of four right off the top of my head where when it's over, you'll go, "Yep, yep, yep, yep!" And one of our most compelling characters, out of 300 some people that have played. So that's what I would say.

From CBS Cast Announcement Press Release
and a "spoiler"??? from Reality Blurred:
http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/archives/survivor_samoa/2009_Aug_27_cast_announcement (posted in the spoiler thread just in case - since it wasnt revealed in the commercial)

From the start of the game, Survivor embraces this Samoan culture by incorporating an ancient tradition of electing an individual leader of the village. Without speaking, both tribes must immediately choose one member of their group to become their sole decision maker, their chief. How important will the role of tribal chief be in determining the fate of each tribe?

From Reality Blurred
The 18 turned into 20 at the last-minute, as I learned in Samoa when I interviewed the new cast earlier this summer. I talked to 18 cast members, and then an alternate in case he was added to the game. We returned the next day to interview the final alternate, Ashley. (Since they were pulled out for fake interviews the day of the press interviews, their fellow competitors didn't know they were alternates. This is significant because they know they're alternates, which for at least one of them seemed to make a huge difference.) Although I prefer smaller casts, I am glad they gave us Erik and Ashley, both of whom appear to be far better cast members than some of the others who weren't alternates.
One contestant was actually someone I'd met previously: Mike Borassi was the first contestant I interviewed in Brazil, but he was removed from the game for medical reasons and replaced by Spencer Duhm the day before the game started.

I think Coach was more of a tool than a villian.

I sincerely hope they do NOT try to top him; it would be unbearable to watch!

I'm placing my money on Russell H as the villain that makes it to the merge and yes, Coach was a tool.
