I cannot wait to see the interaction on these tribes - particularly the villains! The egos are so huge that there should be lots of leader, not many followers, NO "trustworthy" alliances, and lots of clashes. At least, I hope they drive each other nuts - some of them drove ME nuts watching them the first time! LOL

I am thinking that each tribe will be a combination of V's and H's? Is there any concrete info on tribe makeup? I will look for the answer in the Spoiler thread!

ITA Pamy! One of my kids wanted to watch the Coach clip. ew. So...I brought it up for her and watched it with her. Much to my surprise, he wasn't annoying. If he must be on the show, I hope he either has no camera time or acts and talks like a normal person the way he did in that clip. He said the Dragonslayer took a lot of flack. He is going to take the Dragonslayer and morph it into something bigger and better. or something like that. It sounds annoying when I type it, but watching him say it wasn't annoying. The survivor he most admires is Tom. He said he will trust no one. (I wonder if that will come true. He was so gullible on his previous season.)

I watched Jeff's video. Very interesting. He said "Coach wants to win. Can he win. No." ha ha. He said everyone hated Coach and Coach didn't do anything. (I think Jeff doesn't really understand why everyone hated Coach.) Jeff also said if he had to put money on someone and had only one shot, he'd put it on Boston Rob. He said Cirie is very different mentally and physically. If she lasts the first 5 or 6 eps, she'll go far and is a big threat to win the game. He said lots of other things, I found the whole video interesting.

I think they must have had an empty slot and wanted Sandra to come back badly ("- Sandra is a villain for throwing out the fish and letting her alliance member Christa take the fall for it"). But, she and Rupert were so tight, they were probably happier to put her on a team opposite of Rupert anyway. They're trying to make a big issue of her tossing the fish to give her the "Villain" motif. The thing about the fish, though, was that night after the tribe voted Rupert out (after he had kept providing for them) she dumped the fish which Rupert had earlier caught for them. She was angry for their lack of gratitude. It was dark and she tossed those fish just behind the camp. By morning, they STUNK BIG TIME with flies buzzing all over the camp making life truly miserable (not to mention short on fish!). When somebody accused Christa for little reason, Sandra was smart enough to keep her mouth shut. Hence, Sandra went on to win. Smart lady, previous military, IIRC, Sandra was also the one who spoke Spanish in the market place 1st show that bartered her gold necklace for all the food, utensils, foil wrap - EVERYTHING. She was one smart cookie and one heck of a Survivor! I look forward to watching her again. Especially, if she's the lone Hero in the Villain Camp. Bet she kicks Russell's butt in NO time, since she's a STRONG woman and he has no use for strong women.

"if she's the lone Hero in the Villain Camp" Bisc, I like how you put that. I really like Sandra too.

Actually wasn't Boston Rob on AR twice? So if you are going to call him a loser than wouldn't it be a 4-time loser? In a game where only one person can win there are always going to be losers. The true thing Boston Rob has done is be memorable. Love him or hate him people remember him...that makes him a winner in the reality-show game! I hated him his first season on Survivor but liked him the All Stars Season and really liked him on TAR because he truly enjoyed himself and was able to be respectful to Amber throughout the whole process. He never loses his sense of humor about himself and although he plays seriously I always feel like he never forgets to enjoy himself. Makes him an enjoyable playa! By the way, I love James. Well, I love LOOKING at James. Do I think he's a good player? No, but who cares?

I honestly don't remember Boston Rob being on TAR twice (unless he was on the All-Stars version).

I think he was. I think the first time he and Amber were on it they came in 2nd? The 2nd time they crashed and burned about halfway through.

Okay, I believe you Rox. Like I said, I honestly don't remember Romber being on twice but that doesn't mean they weren't.

I Think Rob even talks about being on Survivor twice and TAR twice in one of the interview clips for the new Survivor.

Rox, I agree with you about James. Maybe ABC will make him the next Bachelor.

Here you go: The Amazing Race Main article: The Amazing Race (US TV series) Rob and Amber competed as an engaged couple on the seventh season of The Amazing Race, where they finished as runners-up. On April 16, 2005, they married in a private ceremony at Atlantis Paradise Island, in the Bahamas. CBS aired a 2 hour special about the wedding on May 24, 2005. After their marriage, the couple moved to Pensacola, Florida. In 2006, Mariano decided to work toward becoming a professional poker player. He and Amber took up residence in Las Vegas, Nevada, and Rob began taking poker lessons from Daniel Negreanu. In 2007 Mariano and Brkich competed in The Amazing Race: All-Stars, where they finished in eighth place.

I hated Boston Rob in his first season on Survivor, but then I came to appreciate his personality. He was almost always upbeat and was always nice to Amber, and she to him. When you consider how ugly a lot of the couples are to one another, I just had to like them for that.

I felt that way about Rob too. Like I said, hated him at first but he kind of grew on me. You know what he is, you know what his goals are - but somehow you don't mind. He's just a very charming guy and you always feel like he's having a good time.

I've always liked Amber a lot (right from Survivor Australia) and their apparently nice relationship made Rob much more appealing. It showed another side of him that was likable to balance out the "villain" side.

That pic of Amanda is so much better than the other one. I didn't even recognize her in that first pic.

I'm excited to see Steph again! I think the last two time she was on, I was the lone voice crying in the wilderness for her. lol! It may end up being that way again. Yeah I don't see Sandra as a Villian, nor did I ever consider Parvati a villian. Still scratching my head on that one. Dare I say it...I might root for Rob this time around because it's just so hard to keep that kind of hate going for this many years. Besides, lets see if he can have both tribes in his control like he did in AS. Heck, I'm even looking forward to watching Jerri this season.
