OOoh. I hope the rumor is true. That will be awesome. I like returning players usually, but I don't like that they are targeted right off the bat. That's kind of boring.
I think it would be epic if Sandra won again but I don't think that's going to happen. I'd like to see Ethan win again, I always liked him.

I'd love to see Yul play again. Ethan would be good, too. I wonder if the game play will differ from the newer winners and the older ones?

I am excited but I also like returning players. I would like to see a season where they bring back all the first booted off.

Oh I have wanted this for SO long!!! I would also love a season of runners up to see how that would play differently but this news (if it is true) is awesome! I liked Ethan too, he has to be one of my top 3 winners of all time. Yul is another I'd like to see again. Maybe it is seeing David again this season, but bring on Cochran he can use another win ! Just please, for the love of gawd, Leave Rob back home in Boston he has already had enough times on the island.

Would love to see Parvati again but she just had her first baby so she's out.
Bring back Richard Hatch! I mean if you think about it, to get to 18-20, that's half basically. Pretty interesting to think about. I assume most of the last 10 would be back as they are still younger in life. But that's just my guess.
If it really happens, man it'll be interesting to see how the alliances form.

I knew they were gonna do something big for Season 40 but I was shocked when I learned this was the theme mostly because I know a lot of the past winners don't wanna play again or are not physically able to play again. I have a feeling they might do a 16 person cast for this one for those reasons (which I would not mind at all). It would give us a great edit, and be nice to see the show return to its original format.
Apparently Vecepia Towery said she was not being considered to return to S40 which is unfortunate cause I'd like to see more old school/mid school winners rather than all recent winners.

Yeah, makes me a bit giddy.. I'm such a Survivor Nerd lol.
Part of me wants to see Sandra win a 3rd time.. but I think people MAY be wiser to her now. I do love Ethan, so he would be my top pick. Rob, again . Rob with "Ambah," double . Yul, Nick, Adam, and Danni would be up there for me too.

I'm 100% behind Sandra. If anyone wants to tie her record, they should have to do it in a "mixed" season like she did (ie a mix of past winners and non-winners). I hope none of the players are dumb enough to enter an alliance with Rob and Ambuh, because they'll always be looking out for each other above you. I think they should've made thin an 18-person season so that they weren't forced to take one bottom-of-the-barrel guy & girl (guess which two I mean).

I like her game play and her brand of aggressiveness, she has it down.. raised to an art form. I never thought of the "mixed season wins" but it is a very good point, and I agree.
I would hope people are smarter than to go in with Rob and Ambah too, but they have SO many fans.. no disrespect to the people here that like them too, just not my cup of tea. I foresee they having a big following early on, unless they are split on their tribes and get voted out early, that is the only way to stop them and their alliance. Only saving grace is this IS a season of winners so maybe they will be smarter.

I was really hoping Earl would be on, but his wife just had a baby girl about a week ago, so it was just bad timing for him. Rob/Amber would be my first targets there is no way I would want them both in merge.
As of now Danni Boatwright is my winner pick. It's been so long since she has played, and I think she will fly UTR just like last time

I'd like to see Wendell win. I'd also be okay with Adam, Ben, Jeremy, Natalie, Nick, Sarah or Yul. Everyone else, I either don't recognize, was not impressed by or simply didn't like when they were on the show before.

The only one I don't want to see again is Parvati. I never could warm up to her.

Another big update, the Edge of Extinction twiist is coming back for Season 40 insidesurvivor.com/survivor-season-40-to-include-controversial-twist-39160I have mixed feelings - whilst I disdained season 38 and the way the EoE mechanic played out, I also think they were very unlucky to get such a lackluster premerge group. EoE would've been gold if they used it on Game Changers or David vs Goliath.

They’ll also have some in-game currency that they can use to purchase comfort items, advantages, and the like. If they’re sent to EoE, they have to give away their money to someone still in the game.

All of the preseason interviews went up on You Tube Yesterday and they were all amazing! Thanks, sirmaloth! I watched them all and they were all really good. Picking for the FORT pool is going to be extremely difficult. From what some of the ladies said, it appears it will be a woman vs man start.

Trying to seek out CBS official site over on it for reloading and updating there. But so far only has Island of the Idles.

That's probably smart. They reacquaint their long-time viewers about the players and acquaint the new ones. I know I've forgotten a lot.

I watched the look back special and was surprised at how many of the new cast I didn't recognize. Have no idea who more than half of these people are. And I haven't missed a season of Survivor in over 10 years. Lots of the ones I did know I can't stand. (Tyson, Tony, Parvati...UGH!) So hopefully they'll be the first to go. Also thought it was interesting that Sandra said she felt disrespected by Rob because she just spent 36 days with him on the island of the idols and he never told her he was going to be on the new season. I'm assuming that means that she did tell him she would be there. They seemed to be good buddies, but apparently starting the new season with some hard feelings.
Ready to get started...

I loved the hour yesterday, and seeing the tribal councils, some of them were hilarious. We remember most of the players. I loved them finding idols, making deals, breaking alliances, so roll on next Wednesday. Sandra, you said you were paying attention to how Rob plays, move on , whiner. She can go, and take Pavarti with you..lol
