I don't know, but I noticed the same thing.

Didn't he go through a divorce recently? I know that lots of people get really skinny with the stress of divorce...or maybe it's to get "in shape" for dating after divorce.

He didn't look the same at all and I think he looks better with a few more pounds on him.

He looked to me like he aged quite a lot, he lost weight and really skinny people always look older, guess you can't have it all.

I noticed that too. I couldn't figure what was different about him, then it hit me..Without enough fat in his cheeks, you can't see his dimples..He looked very different..Hope all is well with him.

Whatever happened to him?? No sun tan, no energy...at one point I thought he was going to faint. He seemed an old man!!! Must have lost lots of pounds and he does look quite ill!!!

Did he get some kind of virus in Africa? Strange we didn't read anything on him.

S3 looks okay but I do miss the landscape we had in Survivor 1, the best location so far.

I also thought Jeff looked pretty worn out. Maybe Africa was too much for him. I hope he's ok.
I thought this show rocked.
We got to see some behind the scenes stuff from the survivors points of view. Things we never saw or knew from the way the show was edited. Richard sitting up on that tree looked like a complete a**. And we saw how bossy BB and Deb were and lots of other things we never saw before.
There's probably a ton of other outtakes that would make for some interesting shows.

I think he was just sick, had flu or something, you could tell by his voice he wasn't just tired. I wonder if he'll be at the Emmy's, I bet he'll be perky there, if he is.

The first thing i said to my hubby when watching that preview show was that Jeff looked terrible..that he looked like he lost a lot of weight...so maybe he did catch something..somehow though i dont think the behind the scenes people have to live and rough it like the contestants...so who knows what happened to him....I am sooo ready for S3..im already addicted now to the Amazing Race and the Mole II..ever since BB2 finished i have been patiently waiting for more reality shows..

They should have had Julie substitute for the poor, sickly Jeff. It is painful to look at him.

Sorry to have caused your fur to puff up Kitty. I was just kidding about Julie.

That woman from "the weakest link" would be better.

I read that Jeff got stung by a Scorpian while filming Survivor III. I also read that he lost 15 pounds during the filming of the original Survivor, but gained it all back and kept it on in the cushy setting in Australia. I think the conditions were not as luxurious in Africa, and maybe it is just the weight loss that is making him look so bad.

His voice sounds ill too during the description of the game at the beginning of each episode... I think he's probably run down. This Survivor is supposed to be the hardest yet. It must be a lot of work for him, plus they had two this year!

I made a point of watching him yesterday and he doesn't look as good as he used to- I noticed he got a LOT less face time than last season, and almost no close-ups, so IMO CBS is aware of it.

Poor guy, fame has a high price sometimes!

I watched rock and roll jeopardy this morning and Jeff looked pretty bad IMO. he was leaning on the podium and was very thin. and just lacked spunk.

now I don't know if he is sick or just into the Hollywood "I must be thin mentality".

At the first TC, he looked a bit out of sorts. Not very friendly at all. Almost a bit angry, worn, tired, etc. Maybe he just didn't want to come off as a friend to the tribe members. More of an authoritive type character. Maybe he'll get more chummy later on, when everyone gets to know each other more.
