Just a note that this is starting up again- and a couple of very interesting casting notes...

(yep, Russell Hantz is a contestant on Australian Survivor. Also, Steve W. on the Champions tribe was one of the trainers on the Australian version of The Biggest Loser...)

Russell needs to go to Australia since the entire Hantz family is banned from all things CBS.

Lexie- actually, CBS owns the network that Survivor is on down there (they bought it last year)

That surprises me then... I may have to ask Jim Early what's the deal.

Okay... according to JE, Probst has a lot to do with the production/casting of the Australian version. The fans of the Australian version are very familiar with the Hantzes. Some people are speculating that they put Russell on maybe to humiliate him or take him down a peg or two - because he doesn't last long.
