An interesting group of 10 alumni have been chosen for the upcoming fans vs. favorites edition of Survivor. Here they are and the original season they were on:
Johnny Fairplay - Pearl Islands
Eliza Orlins - Vanuatu
Ami Cusack - Vanuatu
Cirie Fields - Panama
Ozzy Lusth - Cook Islands
Jonathan Penner - Cook Islands
Parvati Shallow - Cook Islands
Yau Man Chan - Fiji
Amanda Kimmel - China
James Clement - China
I'm not sure if these are the most worthy people to be chosen or ones that the 'fans' will take pleasure in defeating. However, there are some potentially good redemption stories amongst these all stars. Both James and Amanda could have easily won this past season, but blew it; so it will be interesting to see if they correct their mistakes this time. Yau Man's trusting nature screwed him in Fiji, so we'll see how he changes his game. Ozzy is likely to remain a strong challenge player, but will that be enough to have him win. And then there's wild card Fairplay. Certainly everyone will be keen to his cheating ways, so it should be interesting to see how he'll try to pull the wool over their eyes again. I certainly would have loved to see people from the Palau (like Tom or Ian) or Guatemala (like Judd, Rafe or Danni) rather than the annoying women of Vanuatu, but I know that at least in one case (Tom from Palau) that they were invited, but turned it down.
Despite what we may think of the choices, I have no doubt it'll still be a very entertaining season. We can all watch it unfold when Survivor returns on Feb. 7.
