Survivor 20: All-Stars - Heroes vs. Villians
[LEFT]I read an article on realityblurred stating that Richard Hatch wants to serve his supervised release in Argentina. [/LEFT] [quote]Hatch “wants to serve his time on supervised release in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and to be free to travel the world to make guest appearances on the popular reality show, [URL="http://newsblog.projo.com/2009/04/survivor-star-w.html"][COLOR=#800080]the Providence Journal reports[/COLOR][/URL].[/quote] To read more, [URL="http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/archives/survivor/2009_Apr_10_hatch_argentina"]click here[/URL]. Also, I saw at survivorskills.com that [URL="http://www.thefutoncritic.com/rant.aspx?id=20090402_survivor"]The Futon Critic[/URL] interviewed Jeff and asked him about another All-Star season. [quote][B]JH: Is there going to be another All-Star edition?[/B] [B]JP:[/B] I would imagine we're going to do another one. I was not a fan in the beginning. When Moonves announced that we were doing the first All-Stars in Season 8, I thought What?! And clearly, as is so often the case, I was completely wrong since it was one of our most popular seasons ever and then we just did Fans Versus Favorites, which is one of my all-time favorite seasons. It was fantastic. I think we're going to be doing another one. One of the great things about reality shows is you find these great characters and then you only get them for one season so why not bring them back. The audience seems to love seeing their favorite people again. [/quote] Could this mean that Survivor 20 will be an all winners season? It probably won't happen, but at least it is something to talk about. :D

I am ready for All-Stars, again. I like those type of seasons as a long time fan. That being said, it seems a bit early. We just had Fans vs. Favorites. The only reason I could see such a move would be if Jeff is serious about ending his run.

I would much rather prefer another Fans vs Favorites than an All-Star 2. I wasn't a big fan of the first All Star season.

I would like to see an all winners season. I think that would be a good final season of Survivor (If Probst doesn't come back).

With a mixture of winners, fan favorites and strong characters.(Survivor All Stars Cast)Twila(Vanuatu)Ian(Palau)Judd (Guatemala)Danni (Guatemala)Terry(Exhile)Yul (Cook Islands)Candice (Cook Islands)Rocky (Fiji)Dreamz (Fiji)Michelle (Fiji)Todd (China)Pei Geh (China)Natalie (Micronesia)Alexis (Micronesia)Ace (Gabon)Sugar (Gabon)Coach (Brazil)Taj (Brazil)Survivor 19 Male?Survivor 19 Female?

I wonder if they could muster up enough women for another All Stars. Survivor's not known for its female characters (at least as of recent)

I'd be down for another bout of All-Stars! Honestly...I think Fans Vs. Favorites is my favorite season, and I didn't even know ANY of the favorites at the time!

[quote] Seasons 19 and 20 of Survivor [URL="http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/archives/survivor_20/2009_Jun_12_production_schedule"][COLOR=#0066cc]will be filmed back to back[/COLOR][/URL]—instead of taking a three-month break in between them—and the reason is entirely about saving money, Jeff Probst told me. [/quote]I wonder if Season 20 will be All Stars 3??!!

One of the reality blurred articles said that casting for 19 and 20 was done simultaneously, so that is a strike against all stars, but I feel like they'd have to come up with some kind of gimmick for season 20 if they are going to use Samoa again. I'd lean toward, if anything, a Stephenie/BJ type thing with Coach and Sugar for season 20. Fans vs Favs was too recent, and they can't really use anyone from season 19 to come back for season 20.

[quote=Bacchus;85457]Nothing, outwardly. As the article states, they have recycled locations in the past and this is just to save money. Casual viewers will not even notice the similarities.[/quote]True, but when they have reused a location in the past, they have always added a gimmick and/or changed the name. Panama's reduxes were All Stars and the introduction of Exile Island, and for Palau, they changed the name to Micronesia and did FvF. I feel like season 20 will definitely have some sort of added dimension to it. Usually at the end-of-reunion previews, they focus on the natural characteristics of the location, but they won't so much be able to do so at season 19's reunion. And with Jeff being a diva about 14 weeks of filming and his contract also coming to an end, I seriously won't be surprised if they throw him a bone and give him Coach for season 20. He definitely seems to be playing games in the reality blurred article, trying to make it seem like he is done after season 20, so that they will give him what he wants (both in terms of money and maybe more creative control). On the other hand, I could be completely wrong, as the past is the past and the current economic pressures everyone is facing are unprecedented. They might justc ompletely wing it and let the 2 seasons play out.

Haha Jeff dreams of another season with Coach. If the seasons are good they can have them in Florida for all I care.

[quote=Dartagnan;85949]If Coach was part of All-Stars I would shoot myself.[/quote] Hopefully you don't have any guns in the house, lol. If 20 is an All Star season, Coach probably got the first call. There hasn't been a huge bad guy personality like him in years (i.e. Johnny Fairplay, Rob Mariano.) He is a shoe in for any type of All Star cast. Actually, we've had many seasons out of the last 10 with no personalities at all (IMHO.) Of course, my whines about casting have been well documented on this site should someone be interested...

Casting has gone down a lot for Survivor, and it is rare that we get that one persona to focus on each season. So if it means more entertainment, I guess I could tolerate watching him on tv again.

Coach was hysterical. People love to hate him! I would totally love to see an all star season again... But I think they should also use some of the bigger personalities from the first 10 seasons- like Jerri. She was so annoying, but again a person you love to hate! Her and Corrine would be good friends :)

I didn't like Coach in the beginning, but by the end he won me over. The producers finally figured out Coach's edit, and it became much more enjoyable to watch. If they do All Stars again, they'll definitely ask Coach. Probably Sugar too, but I doubt she'd do it.

Sugar would be nice to see again but sometimes people just move of onto a different path than they were. She has been moving in a good direction I believe. Still she could very well return. Ya know that they'll try to get the best they can to make this season work.

How dare he haha Corrine might as well be brought back if Sugar is just so she can sent miss high horse back home again.

It amazed me a little that Bob was with them(Randy/Corrine) as I pretty much liked him and pretty much hated them. Though to be honest I'd like to see a few villains on the All-Star season. As much as we want people we love....we need people we hate and are on the "wrong side" to make the show work.
