Survivor: Pearl Islands *OFFICIAL THREAD*

[Breezy_Carol]

Based on their bios, I am going with Trish. I just clicked on the picture of the first one that looked like a mother and she happened to be from Maryland.

 

[DrTomorrow]

Not sure who I'll root for yet, but didn't Rupert just finish filming the Lord of the Rings Trilogy movies?

 

[spacemountain]

there's a survivor club. maybe i should start it up on this thread. i am obsessed with survivor! you can use the clipart i have in my sig

 

[Miss Jasmine]

Woo Hoo!!! I am so excited. Can't wait for September 18!!! I'm still reading up on everybody.

 

[spacemountain]

the survivor all star will be after this one. it will be in february? maybe i'm not positive about that. they aren't going to tell the survivors the location. the names they gave out that were going to be on it were ethan, richard, tina, jerri, and rudy

 

[Indyman]

I've got to root for fellow Indy man Rupert.

 

[Jeafl]

They all look like really nice, normal people. I can't wait to find out which one will emerge as the "one you love to hate"!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

any 24 year olds for me to root for

Hey, guys!

I heard a radio commercial for Survivor PI that said something like we are "dropping the castaways off with no warning and no supplies. No kidding"!!! And DD said she SAW a commercial where a guy was jumping into the water IN A SUIT!!!

Interesting, huh??

they aren't going to tell the survivors the location.

I read on another message board that due to some kind of time constraints or some kind of production problem, the All Star Survivor will also take place in the Pearl Islands. Not sure how much truth to the rumor, but the people posting about it seemed pretty certain. I guess well see in about six months.

I've heard this too. Apparently they went to a press conference first and were told to dress for it, as most did (incuding the one in the Scout uniform, the one in the suit, a couple look to be in nice dresses, etc). They were taken from there and dropped off the boat with no warning and for the first time... no luxury items. One theory I read is that they all picked luxury items, like previous contestants, and might get them delivered as part of a reward challenge.

The newest issue of TV guide has a good article on Survivor PI, it looks as if some of the fellas have a hard time keeping their clothes on. This is going to be an interesting season. I'm couting the days.

 

[Planogirl]

Woohoo!!! I'm glad that it's almost time for Survivor because I have high hopes for this edition. As for who to root for, I'll say tentatively Burton because he's originally from Texas and Rupert because he sounds like an interesting person. But I'm sure that this will change as we learn about their personalities!

 

[zurgswife]

Thanks Grog....Can't wait only 16 more days...

 

[TiggerPiglet]

Thanks Grog for starting this thread. I can't wait to see how this year pans out

 

[jamsmom]

I hope there are some twists and turns. Last year did not hold my attention like the others have in the past.

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

Yay! I can't wait for the new season! I like Tiajuana since she's from MO, and Rupert because he's good looking! Great reasons, huh?

Yahoooo! Can't wait for the new survivor. Are we going to post our Fantasy League Tribe name in our sigs again?

*Also are we going to post the Disboards rank order? I did it last season and will be willing to do it again if I have assistance from a member of each tribe.
