When the 16 Survivor Thailand castaways were revealed last month, this accompanied the promos: "As for the look of this tribe, [Mark] Burnett says it is probably the best-looking cast they have ever had.

“'And that’s pretty much a fluke. They happen to be very interesting and dynamic people,' he says."

Now that we've seen the first episode and seen the castaways in action, do we agree or disagree?

They may have more good-looking men than in the past, but overall I'd say they have a very good balance of the pretty and the plain.

I wish the producers could grasp the fact that, dare I say, many people couldn't care less what the people look like! Am I alone!??!!? It has been proven (look at past winners) that looks don't amount to a hill of beans when it gets down to the nitty gritty! I want people with heart, spirit and a strategic mind to win. I couldn't care less what they LOOK like!

Disagree. The men are better looking but I still give the edge to Survivor 2 :)

I don't think this is the best looking group of people so far, but it is the most diverse with the age I think. I have a feeling this group will be causing some excitement for us. I do enjoy watching the pretty people if they have the right attitude, or the plan people if they have the right attitude. Given a choise between a pretty person and a plan person with the same attitude I will pick the pretty one.

I think overall this group is the most balanced

Africa had less attractive people

Australia had the most appealing people thus far I say

Survivor 2 had the most attractive crew by far IMO. You had the hearthrob Colby that all the ladies were wild about. And then you had Elisabeth and Amber (who was my personal eye candy) for the guys. And overall, even the plainer people were pretty cute (Tina was cute). I can't think of any truly ugly looking people on that show.

Let's see...S2 vs. S5:

S2(women):
Elisabeth
Kimmi
Deb
Alicia
Amber
Jerri
Tina
Mad Dog

4 "pin-up" quality women(I include Alicia).
2 very attractive women(Kimmi & Tina).
1 Fifty-something woman who was pretty 20 years ago.
1 Prison guard.(I'm not going to bash anyone based on looks)

Overall, an extremely attractive group of women.

S5(women):

Erin
Stephanie
Shii Ann
Penny
Tanya
Ghandia
Helen
Jan

While definitely an attractive group, IMHO they really don't stack up to S2. I can't really judge the guys, but my girlfriend says that other than Colby, these are the best looking fellas to grace the Survivor program. Based on the first ep, I'm pulling for Shii Ann and my girl is rooting for Brian the porn guy.

I think it's the best looking survivor yet for sure.

Rob, Ken, Jed and Brian are all exceptionally good looking IMO. All the women are good looking. Ted's nice looking. Clay and Shii Ann are the only ones that are kinda mediocre to me. Clay is old and Shii Ann, well, she's just not very pretty, but all in all they've got one good looking bunch.

I agree with Eden I don't really care what the people look like..but I do care that some people can instantly dislike people for being "old" or "plain"..especially since everyone is going to get old eventually..hehe

[Clay is 40. Not old, not the oldest of the bunch -- younger than Jake, Jan, and Helen.]

This seems a good thread to mention that Galactic Cowgirl has a couple of new, funny cartoons for this Survivor, with emphasis on looks, age, IQ. The link is:

I think S2 had better looking females. That Elisabeth was lovely. S5 does seem to have better eye candy for us women to enjoy, although no one will ever measure up to Colby in my eyes!

Chip, those cartoons were hilarious! Here's hoping that "Chewy" has the last laugh....

Ooops -- Clay is 46, not 40. My bad! Still not old, though.

Hermione, glad you got a chuckle!

I'm reading other spoiler boards and getting disgusted with reading about the dinosaurs and other words to describe the over 35 members.
I think this Survivor has more real people on it. It seems the younger "pretty ones" are the least likely to participate, cause more trouble and not into the team spirit. (Take a look at the players from previous seasons, too)This isn't true of all of the younger ones..just adding.

Twiggy, many spoiler boards also seem to indicate longevity when it comes to said dinosaurs so don't lose hope! They may, as I said above, have the last laugh. (Am I allowed to post that here or is too "spoilish"?)

LOL spoilish..I know what you mean, I read that one, too.

Richard Hatch, Age 39, First Place S1

Rudy Boesch, AGE 72, Third Place, S1

Tina Wesson, Age 40, First Place, S2

Also (I haven't looked up their exact age), Kathy, Mama Kim, and T-Bird did pretty well, too, and weren't the youngest tribe members.

I hope this tradition of seasoned players in the finals continues!
