ALERT: This thread contains possible spoilers and rumors posted from sources like realVegas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It seems like news always comes out in pairs; if I recall correctly, news of Ghost Island first broke before HHH had even started. We don't know the Season 38 premise or theme yet, but we do know that it'll be a "captains" season - mostly newbies, but a returnee on each tribe. This time, it looks like they'll be doing co-captains, as they have four returnees, but don't have four beaches in Fiji. The cpatains are revealed in the link, so don't click it if you don't want to know who they are. insidesurvivor.com/cast/season-38-returning-captains-revealedThe four captains are: {Spoiler} Kelley Wentworth from San Juan Del Sur & Cambodia
Joe from Worlds Apart & Cambodia
David from MvGX,
Aubry from Koah Rong & Game Changers Personally, I would've preferred all second-timers who placed a little bit lower, and can maybe argue that a fluke torpedoed their otherwise-good chances of winning. Phillipines, with medevaced players returning, was far and away the best Captains season in my book. I think it's because they shared the screentime better - even though we had returnees, we still got the legends of Malcolm, Denise and Abi "You f with me you're dead to me" Maria (Mod note: Please use spoiler tags for any results-oriented news or gossip)

Anyone else seeing this possible cheating scandal about to break out? Real Vegas posted on Twitter tonight that some contraband was found. Possible disqualification. They could either revote at the finale or let the 2nd place person win. Or Real Vegas could be full of it. But she normally does have some inside info.

She said execs are scrambling, but a different source of "insider" info cites all kinds of other known cheating on Survivor, and basically says "you think Survivor's going to play bad cop now?" and that with the "crap season" they have coming up, why would they want to trash this season. So who knows? It will be interesting to see what happens this week at the finale....

Ugghhhh.. it makes me ill to think that Yoga Pants could win this based on some (someone's) stupid move like that. Unless she was the one that had the contraband???? THAT would be funny.. maybe there is a hidden jacket with a few baggies of rice somewhere.

Moved this from the show thread.
What kind of contraband could be found that would change the game? It seems weird that this comes out now rather than at the end of the actual filming.

It seems very odd...I dont like this ending, to a good season.

No evidence for this at all, but someone else said it's about the Australian Survivor show. And I read on Twitter that this season's contestants are confused. Not likely this will affect tomorrow night's results, I'm thinking. As far as next season's "crap" it sounds like it's because of the set-up and the way it ends. Here's what I read: {Spoiler} Survivor 38 Edge of Extinction twist
When a player is eliminated they can choose to quit or go to Extinction Island. Players can leave at any time from there. There will be two chances for a player to win their way back into the game – at the merge and then around Day 35/36. Extinction Island does not reset at the merge; the extinct castaways who don’t win their way back into the game can continue to live on Extinction Island until Day 35/36 when the second opportunity to reenter happens. Yes, that means pre-merge boots could be living alongside post-merge boots. And yes, that theoretically means the entire cast could still be alive in the game come Day 35/36. It could also mean a player eliminated on Day 3 still has a chance to reenter and win the season. ETA: he also said this -- Someone fans really like gets screwed
Every eliminated player who chooses to stay on Extinction Island past the merge will be part of the jury (if a player on EI quits post-merge, they will still be on the jury). Yes, that means, theoretically, all 15 castaways not in the Final 3 could be a jury member. It could also mean those eliminated early are voting for people they’ve never met at Final Tribal Council. I dont know how they will edit it but I just know they were very disappointed and are not looking forward to fans reaction on this season

{Spoiler} How do they know someone fans really like gets screwed? I mean they do not have a good track record of casting people we like.
Sounds like an interesting premise just not well thought out.

I saw this on Twitter as well & many people were speculating that it was Mike who brought in contraband, & that it was THC gummies. We'll probably never know, but I kind of wouldn't be very surprised for some reason.

Interesting concept.

. Not sure why you’d ask Boston Rob for advice on how to win on your FIRST time.

Usually if I am on the fence or don't like an idea, Survivor more often than not manages to pull it off. So I am going to reserve judgement on this concept until I see it play out. A whole season seems a bit much. . . but maybe not.
