Mark Burnett was on the Saturday Early Show, and he said that next season there's going to be "a new theme never seen before"

Some speculate it might be "juniors vs seniors": an entirely under 30 tribe versus an entirely over 30 tribe.

I personally think they might go to three tribes of five to start....the sixteenth player comes in to replace the first ousted person. Or even extend the season and start with three tribes of six even....

Or perhaps Dame Fortune decides? Perhaps instead of choosing the tribes beforehand or letting the tribe pick themselves, the tribes are chosen completely at random the first day.....and we might have unequal tribes (say 5 men on one tribe w three women, 5 women on the other tribe with 3 men)...

...or perhaps some of these, or none of these?

any thoughts?

Oh, heck, they are probably in an artic climate so there will be NO skin showing under their parkas!

I'd like to suggest an interesting twist: at the end when the final four have been established, throw them OUT and bring in the FIRST FOUR BOOTED and make them the final four!! Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Burnett made the comment at the reunion show that the theme of this next Survivor will be piracy. Besides having Jeff wear an eye patch and fluffy shirts.... perhaps part of the competitions will be the ability to steal or swap players from the other team??

Just a thought but with interesting ramifications.

That would be a cool idea, Rissa, if you could kidnap players and items from the camp. This would really screw up the alliances.

I think it would be neat if the final vote was done live at the reunion show. This way all the castaways get to vote based on what happened for them at camp as well as what was said in confessionals. Could make for great questions at final Tribal Council.

Nooooo! (LOL!) Survivor isn't Big Brother. Voting is supposed to happen based only on their experiences with the final two players. Not what those final two did or said behind their backs. It's supposed to be a judgement of game playing.

I would be EXTREMELY upset if this happened.

I think they should all be blindfolded for the duration of the show or have to wear earplugs to simulate deafness.

You all have me so anxious for the show to begin! I am looking forward to reading the boards during the show.

from checking the boards, there seems to be some info out....

-The buffs this year will be Aqua, Orange, and Black, no word on which color is the merge color.

-The tribes names (again, no word as to what is what) are Drake, Morgan, and Balboa (famous ship captains)

and now two rumors:

-rumor has it the opening will be unusual as in once the teams are picked, the teams are given a certain amount of money to shop for supplies they think they'll need for the game.

-rumor has it there might be a chance for a voted off person to re-enter the game at some point via a challenge.

I think a pirates theme would be a great one for Survivor 7! I can't wait to find out!

The speculation is that the merge will be tribe: Balboa with black buffs. We shall see...

In keeping with the piracy theme, I think the entire grand prize should be in shares of Sharman Networks (Kazaa).
