Couple of major points:
-"Survivor: Second Chances" was a real possibility, but was scrapped at the last minute.
-they're in Samoa. Again.
-NO REDEMPTION ISLAND HALLELUJAH
-they'll all be living on one beach
-no returnees
-tribe names are Manono and Salani, based on the preview. Men vs women, according to the guy who's provided all spoilers at Sucks.
-oldest female is 51, youngest female 22. Oldest man in his 50s, youngest 21. 18 castaways.
-TDT has the cast [url=http://truedorktimes.com/s24/survivometer24.htm]here[/url], based on posts from users at Sucks. This season includes a little person, another Iraq war veteran hopefully not as boring as Mike from RI, another wife of a former NFL player hopefully not as scary as Taj, another former LAPD officer hopefully not as sucky as Cristina from Cook Islands, another pharmaceutical rep hopefully not as angry as Corinne from Gabon, and a lot of models. As you can tell, I am not excited about this cast.
[QUOTE=ViewRam90;293197]Survivor: Second Chances sounds like a good season but only with cast members that have not been on the show for like the third time.[/QUOTE]
I would hope that the title eliminates those who have been on more than twice (otherwise it'd be better off being something like Redemp...oh wait) but you never know what's running through those CBS execs' heads.
Apparently this season is being compared to Vanuatu...younger more attractive people are eliminated early. According to Sucks 5 people were on board a Fiji flight during filming which indicates they are prejury contestants. The contestants were described to all be under 40 years of age. The descriptions closely follows:
A black man
A short bearded man
A tall blonde guy
A dark headed girl with tattos
A girl with long dark hair
Those 5 are presumably
1.Bill Posley
2.Colton Cumbie
3.Matt Quinlin
4.Kourtney Moon
5.Alicia Rosa/Monica Culpepper
Based on social media stalking people believe the 6th contestant on board that Fiji flight was Christina Cha.
Some speculation has been brought about of who the girl under 40 with long dark hair is. Some believe it is Alicia, but other think that Monica could pass for under 40. Both have long dark hair. Based on the pattern of younger people eliminated I would have to agree with those who speculate Alicia as the girl with long dark hair.
Another speculation brought on by a poster at sucks insinuates that Colton is NOT a prejury boot...I guess Leif and Jonas could both pass for short bearded men but neither look under 40...so I'm guessing Colton is probalby the right guy here on the Fiji flight.

They arent?
The cast has already been announced.

I'm very meh on this cast and this video solidifies it.[/QUOTE]
At least for the most part, a lot of them seem to want to make big moves and play the game. The cast as a whole seems very annoying. I mean Troyzan? Really?

Everybody says that kind of crap before the game starts though. Everyone wants to be remembered for something and almost all of them never do anything. News flash: you can't be known as the nice guy who slits people's throats when necessary. You can't say that you will ruin someone if you don't like them. That's not how this game works and clearly you have never watched a single season if you are going to say stuff like that.

Yeah that guy I would guess was recruited. He reminded me of Matt for some reason. I just hope they don't come off as annoying as they already have.
The cast spoilers began appearing on Sucks in Oct 2011 from a user named Castaway208. A RFF post appeared on August 20, 2011, during filming and well before any cast spoilers were present, The post descrbes a traveler running into what they believed to be the pre-jury survivors on their sequestered vacation. 5 people were described and are believed to be Kourtney, Matt, Bill, Monica, and Colton. The descriptions clearly describe Kourtney, Matt, and Bill, but I am less convinced about the other 2. If the post is credible, 5 out of the pre-jury members are known.

[quote]Gang,
I am currently in Samoa, and they are filming now in Samoa. The crew is staying at a hotel called Aggie Grey's Resort and Spa. This must be 24 as I believe 23 may have already wrapped. I flew to Fiji yesterday for the day and on the plane were five of the cast members -- must have already been booted off. They were not Coach or Ozzie. It included a tall clean cut blond guy; a tattooed white girl with short, dark hair; a white girl with long dark hair; a slightly bearded short white guy with dark hair, and a black guy hair that was froish. These folks were all young (under 40) and "actor looking." They were accompanied on the trip to Fiji by a minder with an Australian accent (producer?). Americans are hard to come by in this part of the world, so an American accent stands out. This was not a group of friends travelling together. I hired a driver in Fiji and he took me to a semi-secluded resort called "First Landing," where I ran across these Americans there. They were the only folks in the place other than moi, who went to the spa. The resort while I was there added security. The staff were cagey about who these Americans were. (There is also heavy security at Aggie Gray's). I'm fairly certain these were booted castmates. Your thoughts?[/quote]
A few other notes:
-Dalton Ross (from EW.com) states there is a medevac this season; according to her Twitter, Kourtney broke her left arm.
-Christina tweeted she was "still on Fiji time", which would indicate she was pre-jury
-There is a tribe swap at one point; according to posters at sucks, Michael and Jay and Christina and Alicia swap places.
People at Sucks came up with the tribes post-swap (looks like it happens Ep 5 or so):
[B]Salani:[/B]
Jay (seen in blue buff in the basketball challenge)
Michael (is the guy on the right in the bucket challenge (blue flower shorts))
Troyzan (is the guy on the left in the bucket challenge (red-orange flower shorts))
Kat (seen in blue buff in the basketball challenge)
Kim (is the girl in the middle in the bucket challenge)
Sabrina (seen wrestling Christina, who has an orange buff, in the basketball challenge)
[B]Manono:[/B]
Colton (seen in basketball challenge being wrestled by someone wearing red-orange flower shorts (who we know to be Troyzan))
Greg (seen in orange buff next to Christina, beard length similar to screenshot when he's wet)
Jonas (seen getting dunked by Jay, who has a blue buff, in the basketball challenge)
Leif (seen in orange buff in the basketball challenge)
Alicia (seen in orange buff in the basketball challenge)
Christina (seen in orange buff in the basketball challenge)
[B]Unknown:[/B]
Bill (seen in basketball challenge)
Monica (seen wearing blue buff falling into water)
So that means the first 4 boots should be:
Chelsea
Nina (likely ep 2)
Matt (likely ep 3)
Kourtney (ep 1)
I think Sucks has been overanalyzing the promos though. I've been over there to read the spoiler discussion and they have a few things wrong. It seems as though the fiji flight 5 was actually correct, they just missed the description of Nina, which would indicate that Kourtney, Matt, Bill, Nina, Monica and a short bearded man (Colton or Lief) are the first 6 boots and Chelsea is NOT one of the first 4 boots.
Next episode is titled "Thanks for the Souvenir", which screams blindside with idol in pocket. I would be ok with dealing with Colton for another week if it means he gets blindsided with an idol in his pocket.

This would be fantastic! I mean, I wish he would go this week, but a blindside before the merge would make me happy and may redeem this boring season so far, especially if it's Colton being voted off.
Probst also said that episode 6 is historic for one reason and that history is going to repeat itself. Christina has been the suggested boots for this week and Monica the week after, and one person speculated that one of them finds an idol or has immunity, gives it to someone else, and is then voted out. I'm not sure who would be so stupid to do so, but I guess we'll see.

If Colton goes home, who will carry the show? Would the Alicia show really be any better?
[QUOTE=salt&vinegar;299877]If Colton goes home, who will carry the show? Would the Alicia show really be any better?[/QUOTE]
Anyone would be better than Colton at this point for my viewing experience.
There's one spoiler going around saying Christina is next voted out (whether that be ep 6, or ep 7 due to a possible ep 6 medivac)
But there's also this boot list. It was posted before the season started as someone's predictions, but it's been gaining traction as a real possibility since it's gotten everything right so far.
18th: Kourtney
17th: Nina
16th: Matt
15th: Bill
14th: Monica
13th: Greg
12th: Colton
11th: Leif
10th: Michael
9th: Chelsea
8th: Christina
7th: Jonas
6th: Jay
5th: Troyzan
4th: Sabrina
3rd: Alicia
2nd: Kat
Winner: Kim
[QUOTE=fabulous788;300100]Funny that you say that because I have no idea who Kim is...apparently someone that's been an extra so far.[/QUOTE]
After Kim's conversation with Jay and Troyzan, then finding the idol, I had her pegged as a potential winner. I have serious doubts about the list, but I do think she can get very far in the game.
CBS has actually spoiled quite a bit for this week:
1. It is the Survivor Auction, and one castaway gets a letter from home.
2. Troyzan buys an immunity challenge advantage at the auction and automatically gets to move on to the finals.
3. The immunity challenge is the "let's do stuff we already did" challenge.
4. The final 4 in the immunity challenge are Troyzan, Kim, Tarzan, and Christina.
Given the immunity idol hanging with Troyzan's shirt and shorts, posters at Sucks seems to think he might be this week's winner.
Kim, Kat, and Leif are all seen in a future challenge...so it's not them. That means it's either Tarzan, Alicia, Christina, Chelsea, or Sabrina this week.
