Survivor Micronesia Preview
As some of you might realize, fuckin ntv7 has finally come to their senses and started airing Survivor : China (Saturday nights). I still can’t bring myself to forgiving them for abruptly cancelling Survivor : Vanuatu - just 3 weeks before the finale. Anyway, since Survivor : China is showing (I still think this was one of the better seasons post All Stars) on our local tv, there is hope that they’ll show Survivor : Micronesia too.. also known as Survivor 16, also known as Fans vs Favorites, also known as Survivor Half-ASS 2. In case you don’t already know, the show will premier on CBS this coming Thursday (and Big Brother too!!!).. so here’s a little something to whet your appetite.
Here are the two teams: The first team which is the Airai tribe, consisting of the FANS (the new players) — (numbered photos are courtesy of SurvivorFever.net)
Michael Bortone (1), Tracy Wolf (2), Joel Anderson (3), Kathleen Sleckman (4) Erik Reichenbach (5), Mary Sartain (6), Chet Welch (7), Natalie Bolton (8), Jason Siska (9), Alexis Jones (10)
And here is the second team which is the Malakal tribe, consisting of FAVES (players from past series - which might be totally new for those who haven’t been following the show)
Cirie Fields (11) - from Exile Island, Jonathan Penner (12) - from Cook Islands, Amanda Kimmel (13) from China, James Clement (14) - from China, Ozzy Lusth (15) - from Cook Islands, Yau-Man Chan (16) - from Fiji, Eliza Orlins (17) - from Vanuatu, Jonny Fairplay (18) - from Pearl Islands, Parvati Shallow (19) - from Cook Islands, Ami Cusack (20) - from Vanuatu.
First impressions on the previous players : Cirie - overrated, Jonathan - LOVE. Amanda - LOVE, James - good choice, Ozzy - zero social skills, Yau Man - LOVE, Eliza - good choice, Jonny Fairplay - waste of a filler, Parvati - holy WTF? shit we got ourselves another fucking Amber, Ami - LOVE LOVE LOVE.
And you might enjoy the following youtubes too. The first one is a pretty cool ‘trailer’ (I don’t think they’ve ever done this for previous seasons). And the second one is a Meet The Castaways session.
February 7th. Can’t wait.
And have a Prosperous New Year for those celebrating the Chinese New Year!

i think parvati’s in it cos she’s erika shay’s BFF. not sure if erika’s doing casting for survivor aside from TAR, but maybe she pulled some strings?

Yeah, it’s a known fact that Parvati is close with several of the peeps in casting. They will only have themselves to blame if Parvati really turns out to be this season’s Amber-type winner though.
