Show starts January 28, 2001

I feel like I am going through Survivor withdrawal already and am so glad BB is still on to alleviate my symptoms. Can't wait until January for Survivor II in Australia. That'll be cool! I wonder if they'll set it up the same way as the past one. I know they will have 16 survivors, but I wonder what they will change.... Should be good!

Survivor II is scheduled to start airing on January 28, 2001. I believe they are in final phases of casting now.

(Oh, my! It feels strange to think that 2001 is just around the corner! Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick are you watching?)

Some early bits and pieces from ET and other programs about what to expect on Survivor II.

The two tribes won't meet each other until the first competition.

The Final Four Episode may actually be done LIVE because no one thinks they'll be able to keep the winner secret.

The Final 50 applicants were paired down to 16 in interviews the week of September 11.

Just a little FYI to whet your appetite:)

How can they do the final show live if they plan to edit and air all the rest of the shows first? Will they send the final four back out to the outback after three months at home to finish the competition? If they do that, the competitors will be rested and will have time to think about what happened and their final votes won't reflect the intensity of the experience that they just lived through. Just think, if the first Survivor finale had been taped the contestants had been at home for three months, there would be no way that Sue would have launched into her famous anti-Kelly monologue because she would have had a chance to get over her bad feelings for Kelly. While many might say that would have been a good thing, I think that the final episode would not have been as interesting if Sue's speech had been left out. I hope that the producers can tape the final show at the end of the Survival experience and not three months later and then come up with some other way of keeping the outcome a secret.

I agree, I can't see the logistics of it.

Although a live finale would be excellent, it doesn't seem to wash with the way the show is built.

Thank you to Robtrandan for that update! I've been wondering what's going, but never see anything about in the paper or anywhere!

The possiblities are endless!!! Survivor will ALWAYS be better than BB because, who really wants to stay in the house, anyway??

I hope there is a bad guy we will love to hate...

Meet the contestants tomorrow morning (Thursday, December 4) on the CBS Early Show. Here's what they say in Variety:

"The cross-promotional push begins Thursday when the identities of the 16 contestants competing in "Survivor: The Australian Outback" will be unveiled exclusively on the breakfastcast."

I'm at work and can't watch the CBS Early show...I should have set the VCR to tape it!

If anyone can report back, that would be great!

I just watched the new contestants on the Early Show. It looks like a bunch of interesting
(and good looking) people and I'm really excited now to watch them interact.

They showed the two tribes and we got to see brief interviews with all 16 of the contestants and scenes from their audition videos.

Tomorrow morning they are going to show the Outback location on the Early Show.

I got the impression the new contestants were all mouth and no trousers (as they say where I come from). It looked like they had created these big personalities for the interviews but I'm not sure whether they will be able to pull it off when the time comes. I can't wait for the new season to start.

Just saw the group and for the most part are certainly more aesthetically pleasing in the looks department than Survivor 1. Can't wait for the show to start.

Admin...can you make this thread narrower? I think Princes URL extended it. Kitt, I agree. That was my take too. Not unlike BB. They were just a touch too gritty. We shall see.

Thanks Admin & Gail. I apologize if this gave you additional headaches. I will be sure to rename the URLs next time so they don't stretch the width of the screen. I didn't know they would cause much problems.

Have a nice day and thanks for providing all of us reality TV fans an excellent site to visit and share.

Did anyone see the show on, I think A&E about the Survivor set and production crew? It was pretty interesting seeing how they camped out and create the music and all the sets and props for the games.

In the tribal council area (a very cool set completely designed and built on site), they kept putting those blurry things over something the host was holding. It looked like some sort of staff. I couldn't figure out why that was a secret. They showed the immunity idol, they showed the pathway to the council area, they even showed where the banished person goes to do their last confessional. I'm very curious about that blurred out thingy.

They had aboriginal artists come in and paint the fake rock walls of the tribal council area with artwork that symbolizes the process of banishment.

I'm stoked! Superbowl be damned! Bring on Survivor II!!!
