It's all over the internet that Survivor 26 will be a sequel to Fans Vs Favorites with half the cast being former castmembers. I was pretty disappointed with the cast of the original FVF and I wish I could report that that is not the case this time, but sadly it appears as though Survivor still has a casting department that suffers from a severe case of brain damage. Believe it or not, this cast is even worse then last time. They're actually bringing back a last place contestant! The returning cast members are...
Brandon Hantz
John Cochran
Erik Reichenbach
Malcolm Freberg
Phillip Sheppard
Andrea Boehlke
Brenda Lowe
Corrine
Dawn Meehan
and
Francesca Hogi ???????????????????
Yes, rumor has it that they are bringing back Francesca from Redemption Island who came in last place and lost her first duel! Now, just like in the original FVF there are a few castmembers I'm excited to see back. Last time it was Ozzy, Amanda, Amy and to a certain extent James and Liza. This time there's Andrea, Brenda, Corrine and to a certain extent Malcolm. I'm not saying I like Corrine but she IS a pretty good villain.
Who the fuck is Malcolm you ask? Well, he is a member of the upcoming Phillipines edition. Rumor has it that he is the Russell Hantz of that season and replaced Troyzan in S26 at the last minute because Troy couldn't keep his mouth shut about coming back. Of course, like most of the FVF2 cast I don't know why they wanted to bring him back in the first place. His tribe of men were by far the stupidest tribe in Survivor history and he was no exception.
I am really excited to see Andrea and Brenda back. Despite the incredible stupidity of Survivor casting, I always knew these two would return one day. Brenda, the sexy strategist from Nicaragua and Andrea, who clobbered three strong guys in the final redemption island duel of her season. I actually really thought Andrea and Matt would be the returning players in South Pacific.
It will be great to see those three back but the rest of the cast is down right horrible!. There were some bad ones in FVF like Yau-Man, Parvati, Cirie and Fairplay, but this cast takes awful to a new level. Fracesca????????????
Not one decent man returns. You got psychopathic Phillip, who I still believe was a plant by producers, psychopathic Brandon, John who forever ended the myth that all nerds are smart, Erik who gave up immunity, and Malcolm who MIGHT be interesting to watch.
Then on the women side you also got Dawn and Fracesca! Francesca!!!!!!!!!????????? I said during South Pacific that Dawn was a snake and rumor has it that in FVF2 she makes Russell Hantz look like a choir boy. I hear the backlash Dawn receives from all the people she betrays has put her into therapy. Maybe instead of calling this Fans Vs Favorites 2 they're planning on calling it Fans Vs Hated.
I can just imagine the casting department trying to figure out who they should bring back. "Ok guys who are we gonna bring back for Survivor 26? Should it be heroic Brett and Laura from Samoa? David from RI who has the highest IQ in survivor history? Matt from RI who eliminated Russell Hantz and won all but one duel? No, no, no! Instead let's go with two nut jobs (one of whom gave up immunity), ANOTHER guy who gave up immunity, a back stabbing nerd, and a dyke who came in last place. Those would be MUCH better! Now let's go do a few more lines of coke!" Either that or "who can we bring back that will be dumb enough to not vote out Cochran right away?"
Francesca??????????????????
How they could NOT bring back Laura, Brett and Matt is beyond me!
Well, here's who I think should have come back.
Laura (Samoa)
Andrea (Redemption Island)
Brenda (Nicarauga)
Corrine (Gabon)
Natalie (Micronesia) (Like Corrine, I'm not a big fan of Natalie but she was a fierce player and at least she didn't come in last!)
Brett (Samoa)
Matt (Redemption Island)
Jim (South Pacific)
Judd (Guatamala)
Malcolm (Phillipines)
Alternates
Colton (One World)
David (Redemption Island)
Grant (Redemption Island)
Ralph (Redeption Island)
Kenny (Gabon)
Terry (Exile Island)
Christina (One World)
Peigi (China)
AND NO ONE WHO GOT VOTED OUT FIRST!
Francesca??????????????????????????????????
And don't give me any grief about Christina. She's only an alternate and she did go far in the game. Not to mention she's fine as hell!
