Some of the survivors appear to be on the skinny side. They either didn't watch II or are gluttons for punishment. I would think they would fatten up in case food is scarce or nonexistent. Am I making a mountain out of a mole hill? I can't believe I'm the only one who's thinking about this. Let me know if you agree or not. Thank you

It's been said that the African survivors were ordered by the show's doctor to put on weight before the show began filming to avoid repeating the starvation of Survivor 2.

I also hear that food is usually a prize in the reward challenges.

I agree there are some skinny people on there, especially that girl that said the heat would be a peice of cake, she is the police officer or something like that, she reminds me of Jerry from SII, I don't like her already.

I think those were the audition tapes.

Yes, they seemed thin, but those were just the audition tapes. Plus none really seemed as thin as Mitchell from S2, at least.

Some other random thoughts...

The woman with the crazy hair (Diane, I think?) is getting into trouble already. She sounds way too bossy and arrogant in her audition tape. And from the looks of the preview, she tries to take charge with the map and rubs some people the wrong way. She'll probably stick around for awhile (since she's shown as the outsider in the preview - it's too obvious), but not too long.

What's with Big Tom? lol - he was amusing. Not sure if he's just this season's Kentucky Joe or if he's just crazy. :)

Lindsey and Kelly annoy me already. Lindsey because she's just SO desperate to be on the show that she bares all (or practically all!), and Kelly because she seems like a brat. I hope I'm wrong. Oh, and I don't like Carl either. He seems arrogant. And not Will-funny-arrogant. Stupid-grating-arrogant. The kind of arrogant that gets you voted out.

I think Tina's picks were off. Unless his personality *really* offsets it, Clarence will just be seen as competition in a big way. Lindsey might do okay, but I don't think I'd chose her for one of my top two picks.

And as for the S1 and S2 folks...Jeff is as adorable as ever. :) Tina seemed fake and just kind of bored me. I would have rather have seen Richard - his arrogance can be a bit annoying, but Tina bothers me more...lol. Nice to see Rodger again. Debb building a shelter with rocks still amuses me.

I don't think we can judge them by the snippets we saw. Tina must have watched the entire tapes to have come up with the comments she made.

I got the impression that hunger won't be an issue this time but thirst will. I am sure though that SIII will find a way to get them a clean water source before the first episode is over.

Ah, but pre-judging them is fun! :) I'll be the first to admit that my opinions might change when I actually see them on the show, though.

I do still think that Clarence is just too physically fit to win. He'd have to be awfully nice for the others not to be threatened by that and vote him out. They might keep him around until the merge, though. If there is a merge, that is. :) I'm kind of confused as to whether there's really new rules or not.

Lindsey's nickname is rumored to be "Insano". In her tape, she also deliberately fell off her bike. Maybe she'll become a regular on a new version of Jackass!

I think she'll also the one rumored to end up in the hospital after 6 wks. I wonder what that's all about!

Moon! thanks for confirming that. I was working while I was watching and thought I glanced over at the tv to set some part of her upper anatomy blurred out, but since I saw a few seconds of that, thought I was seeing things!

Actually, she was semi-naked. She was wearing a thong, and her body was covered in body paint. Flowers were painted over her breasts.
