From CBS.com..the Early Show:

Meet Amazon 'Survivors'

NEW YORK, Jan. 13, 2003


(CBS)



(CBS) The sixth installment of the "Survivor" series begins in one month. But you don’t have to wait that long to find out which 16 contestants will compete for a million dollars. They will be announced Monday on The Early Show.

Giant snakes, man-eating fish, alligators and natives who lack the gift of hospitality are a few of the challenges that the next "Survivor" location harbors. The contestants' destination is the world's biggest source of oxygen- the Amazon Rainforest.

TV Guide staff writer Eileen Rudolph traveled there to talk to each of the hopefuls. On Monday, she will share her thoughts about the new show and the people we should be watching.

The contestants on the next "Survivor" game will have to deal with scorching temperatures, torrential rains and “crazy animals,” said the show's creator Mark Burnett on The Early Show.

He was referring to Cayman alligators, piranhas, anacondas and animals like the sloth, which he said he had never seen before.

“The sloth is almost like a miniature bear with these arms that just go like this and they can hook around and they've got claws and they sit in a tree." said "Survivor" host Jeff Probst. "You can't see them. They're so camouflaged. But they're the coolest animals. They move at about a half a mile a year," he explained.

Producers are promising "a new twist" to the game but they didn't go into detail. However, Probst suggests potential players study John Nash's non-cooperative game-playing theory because "all the answers to 'Survivor' are there."

Ileane said that in the beginning, the women were braiding each others hair and were treating this all like a day spa. Didn't worry about building a shelter. She said the men were acting macho. lol.
She said there were some real A type personalities this time.

OK, Christy really is deaf. They showed her "speaking" and she was using sign language but she can talk to some degree. Ileane said she was not given an interpreter or any special consideration.
Christy said she feels confident she can go far.

Heidi: she spoke, she thought the camp would be more like a "beach" and was freaked out at what might be in the water. I have to say, Neleh clone.

Joanna: didn't speak, but looks prettier than her bio pic.

Jeanne: oh boy, already complaining, reminds me of how Helen was in the beginning

Deena: didn't speak, got no impression of her

Janet: didn't speak, seemed older than her bio pic

Jenna: didn't speak, was shown having her hair braided

Shawna: spoke, said she loves to go camping, seems like a spitfire and confident


Men to follow.......

Ileane said she wondered why some of the men where there. She commented on Daniel and Rob.

Daniel: Ileane said: he doesn't even like to use the bathrooms at reststops, so why was he there? (spoilers of him being first off must be true, imo)

Rob: has never camped, he didn't speak, but he seemed like a jerk, jmo

Butch: didn't speak, no impression

Roger: was ordering the guys around, he told the camera he wanted to slap them around because they were all acting macho. Didn't like this guy at ALL!

Alex: he DOES look like Jeff! Even Ileane said so.
She also said he was one of the macho guys, he's awful cute though.....

Ryan: I believe the spoilers that he will be off early. He was freaked out over the wildlife. Too bad, he's a cutie too.

Matthew: spoke, ummm, he said he has "survivor skills" that he would keep to himself until he needed to use them. He's a big guy, but did not seem very macho to me at all.

Dave: didn't speak, only was show for a second, couldn't get anything from this.

I'm glad that he is showing other minorities, and the deaf girl of course, but I still wish he had an A/A male, too.

I feel you Square, that's the first thing I noticed when looking at the pictures, but I thought I'd let it go.

Come on ladies! We can root for Joanna! Although she didn't speak during the preview, I got a good vibe from her.

Who cares about the men anyway, except for Alex, yowsa! (oops, he's kinda young for me, never mind...)

Webkitty, keep your kitty paws off of Alex. I am already fighting you for Viggo! LOL!

I second the motion to root for Joanna (after Christy for me, of course). Did you see her abs?? She is tough! And she is a guidance counselor. I love rooting for people in public education. Isn't she a guidance counselor? Most of the guidance counselors I have worked with are super sweet people.

I can't wait for this one to start. My hubby applied for S5 but didn't hear anything. He would have been the first redhead with blue eyes! He has the app for S7 and says he's going to apply again. It's due in February. I'll let you know.

Square, the code word is "Rosebud". I don't remember who set that up, maybe MsMoon, but I rememeber it from prior discussions.

Can we agree to keep the spoilers in the spoiler's threads? Some of us don't want to read them, but like the other threads.
