Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains (Premieres February 11)

[thrillme]

I was kinda hoping for Yao Man to be back.

But oh well. I like the line up. I think they have plenty of people wanting to come in but fans all over have been asking about some of these characters.

Personally for me...the islands and the water are soooo beautiful. The experience is so unique...It wouldn't be TOTALLY about the money. Since I started watching Survivor I've added so many places I want to "go before I die", I'm going to have to live to be 300 years old.

Oh great, the 'dragon slayer' is back. >_<

My family and I are so excited for Thursday! What a great group of villians and heroes. It's going to be fun watching them interact together. (Though I do wish Yao man would come back as well).

I'd love to see Yao Man and Big Tom back. They were two of my all-time favorites.

From MercuryNews.com:

Turns out that Yau-Man Chan of Martinez was, indeed, approached by producers, but reluctantly turned down the invite. The popular UC Berkeley computer whiz, who charmed millions in the Fiji edition and returned to play in Micronesia, was flat out of vacation time.

At first, Chan, 57, was disappointed over missing another chance to compete. But after studying the male half of this season's roster, which includes the likes of Rupert Boneham, James Clement and "Boston" Rob Mariano, he's just fine with watching from the comfort of his couch.

"I look at that cast and it's loaded with real power players — a lot of type-A personalities," he says. "I don't think I'd have any chance out there with those guys. I'm more of a subtle player, who relies on playing an intellectual game. I wouldn't fit in with this group."

So who thinks those chickens were planted?

[Greenlawler]

I wonder who else was approached and said no?

For the villains:
Keith (Australia)
Clay (Thailand)
Lex (Africa) (although could have been a hero)
Shi Hann (Thailand)
John (Pearl Islands) although I think he has burnt this bridge
Rafe (Guatemala)

Heroes:
Rodger (Australia)
Micheal (Australia)
Tina (Australia)
Tom (Africa) (although could have been a villain)
Butch (Amazon)
Jenna (Amazon)


Any others? I have only watched these seasons and I did watch last season.

I think they are the chickens that got loose on the last season. LOL

I was hoping to never see Coach again. Rob either. He has been on every reality show out there just about. By the way, what is going to happen to him next week? I mean stroke? Snake bite? Whoa!

Oh and Randy. Man! Could they have picked a worse person to bring back?

If Sugar and JT are a couple (hope not) she sure was trying to flirt with Colby tonight.

That is exactly what my house said while watching!
