It crazy to think that Shane Powers was in the returning for HvW but got cut because of Russell Hantz, BvW with his son Boston, both Fans vs Favorites and now Second Chances...have to feel bad for him.
Maybe it is really meant to be that Greg and Shane have to do one together because of their "connection".
This cast is really the best minus Shane/T-Bird you could have picked.
Let's be real if Francesqua gets a second chance and got called to be a favorite to win, certainly Shane/T-Bird should get one too.
I have a feeling that either Shirin, Kimmi or Kelly the rat will be the first boots though.
The male cast is a total even playing field minus Keith.
I liked seeing the reactions of the people who made it, but I dis-liked the reactions of the ones not chosen even more...so overall it left me feeling cold. Good cast overall. Disappointed a little with Woo and Keith.
I'm expecting an Abi or Cagayan first boot, or several boots (even if they weren't aligned, having 4 people from one season can't be good)

Keith will play a much better gamet his time around, you shouldn't be disappointed. Wes was the one who applied. Keith had no clue what was going on, he just happened to be GOOD at challenges. Now that he's watched the show, he should be much more strategically aware.
Yeah, while it was great to see those get excited that they made it, to me it was harder to see those get declined. Obviously all of them wanted to come back, but you can tell from some of their eyes that they truly wanted it.
I would've just replaced Woo and Kelley with Shane and T-bird. Jim would've been cool to see again too. But overall the cast is still amazing. The individual immunity challenges have the potential to be epic with how many physical threats there are.
What are y'alls predictions for a final three with this cast?
If Ciera can make it past the "get rid of the weak" phase I'm expecting her to do well (not saying she's necessarily that weak, but physically I think she's near the bottom of this cast of females). Ditto for keith
I also think people that weren't really a highlight of there season for any particular reason (good or bad) to make it far, like Kelley Wenthworth and Monica. Normally I'd peg people like that as early boots, but with the physical threats and the 4 Cagayan I expect this season to be played differently.
I'm hoping for a Tasha or Ciera win. But I really do love this whole cast and am excited to see the cast members from season 1-13 since I never saw those seasons.
This season is going to great. Everyones a player.
This. I seriously have no idea why it took them 30 seasons to allow the fans to vote on a cast. We're looking at one of the greatest casts in a long time. Even though I am still salty Shane wasn't picked (how did this happen).

Not going to lie. It's better than Heroes vs Villains in the sense that it isn't just a loose rehash of All-Stars wth a few new faces. Sure, HvV had some fantastic names, but it wasn't as fresh feeling as this. This is an all returnee cast that's worth a damn.
I rewatched the cast reveal and I feel like giving Teresa a big hug. It really made me sad seeing her not get a second chance. I bet she was thinking "oh I have a good shot since the other old schoolers (Kelly, Kimmi, and Jeff) got on" but nope she got denied.
I'm really excited for this cast. It represents all eras and generations of this show(something The cChallenge could stand to do). And they all will seem like they will play the game to the fullest extent. I really think this is going to be one the best returnee seasons Survivor has ever produced and I can't wait to see it.

I shouldn't have rewatched it... but sadly I did.
Makes me hate America a little more. Voting some blonde irrelevant bimbo over Teresa... I hope Kass snatches the *****.
Kelley seems like such a weird person to dislike, especially when girls who were worse could have been cast. IMO this season had the opportunity to be better than any previous returnee season. I didn't really like All Stars, HvV is overrated, and if we're counting FvF seasons. Micro is overrated as well imo and Caramoan is a pile of crap.
I feel like season 31 will just be a huge popularity contest. The more friends you have in the cast the longer you will survive.
Or people from the same season will team up. Like the Cagayan representatives, if Kass, Woo, Spencer, and Tasha are on the same tribe they would defiantly link up imo. All they need is one more person and they control the tribe.
Chances are there will be a schoolyard pick for the tribes... and the people who start off the pick will based on some gimmick or challenge lol.

He died of a heart attack though, not because of the location.

I think Stephen and Vytas will do well,
Kelley, Jeremy, and Vytas (I'm in the minority who cannot stand the *******...) are the only wasted spots IMO. Everyone else is perfect.
I can see Joe being an early boot as well. He and Spencer will likely have targets on their back as soon as the game begins.
I agree about Kelley and Jeremy...for that reason, I think they'll go far
I'm rooting for Spencer, Tasha, kelly, and Abi (I know, I'm sorry...)
Aside from Spencer, I don't have any pre-season favorites on the guys side really.
I'm hoping for a Tasha or Ciera win. But I really do love this whole cast and am excited to see the cast members from season 1-13 since I never saw those seasons.

I can't wait for the merge because all but 6 people have won individual immunity before which is pretty cool IMO.
Did any pre-merge boots make the cast? Or was Mikayla and Stephanie the only two.
Kimmi Kelley and I think Jeff & Andrew
Kelley, Kimmi, and Savage and Jeff made the merge, but were pre-Jury.
I guess that works. I really wanted to see someone who didn't make the merge make it just to see how they could do.
The tribe switch isn't the same as the merge....
Savage was on Balboa, and Jeff made Barramundi. They were the first postmerge boots.
Oh I read that wrong, I thought you meant all four made the merge.
My bad! Should have worded it differently.

Kelly seems excited
"Why are yall excited again? The loser's lodge and ponderosa have a seat waiting for each and every one of you."
Kelly and Shirin have the best expressions if we're being honest.
