Rumored cast for Survivor 34 (possible spoilers)

Ozzy is 34 now? Dang he was a baby when he first was on.

Glad Caleb is on the list - I hated how he had to leave this season.

After the success of the last fan vote, it wouldn't surprise me if they did a fan vote again.

I kind of like returning players seasons because they can start so much faster. We don't have to spend a lot of time getting to know the characters.

I had heard that the returnees would be from season 20 forward, which doesn't match this list.

This list doesn't excite me, really. I'd like to see Malcolm (can he come back every season?) and Sophie. I'd actually rather see Nadia given a 2nd chance than Natalie - it would be interesting to see what she could do without her sister there.

I like it when they have returning players so I can't wait for this next season!

Melissa

My memory is so bad! I don't remember so many of these people. It'll be like watching almost all new people for me.

Another Penner fan! Love to see him and the other one I would love (although not on the list) is Rob Cesternino.

Me, either! Especially when it's players that I didn't like the first time!

I am glad they are bringing back all returning players. I hate the ones where "newbies" are up against the pros.

Glad to see Caleb on the list. And Cirie. I liked her.

I like the idea of "first to go" returnees. See what they would do differently the next time around.

But that's exactly what happened last year. The winners of the fan vote were announced at the reunion show and they got immediately on the plane to go film. BUT--I'm pretty sure we were already voting by now...

Don't forget this current season 32 airing now was actually filmed BEFORE Season 31.
These days they film two seasons back to back in basically the same location...but this time they aired them in reverse order, so the people we are seeing now actually played their game almost 12 months ago.

Jeff hasn't said exactly why they did this in interviews, but I think the previous season was such a strong one, they thought it better to lead with that one for the year and then follow up with this season of far less likeable players.

So if any of the players in this current season are in either of the next two seasons, they will have had a good 12 months between their two games.

I like to see either an all new cast, or an all returning cast, with the all new cast being my favorite. What I hate seeing is new players with a few returning players, as other Peas mentioned. I also really don't like having people who have won Survivor once (or even twice!) come back in an all returning players cast. They've had their chance, they've won their million dollars-let other people have a chance to win theirs. 

I avoid all spoilers like the plague, but this one I just couldn't resist. So, who do I see that I'd like to see (or not see) in the new cast? Well, I too have trouble remembering people. I think I'd like to first see people who've only had one chance to play so far. So, that'd be:

Caleb Reynolds (he got medevac'd out and didn't really get much of a chance to play this season)
Debbie Wanner (she's fun to watch)
Tai (if he doesn't win this season) and the rest? Honestly I don't remember them much so I say give it to the people who've only played once so that'd be
Alexis Maxwell
Aubry Bracco (if she doesn't win this season)
Carolyn Rivera
Chelsea Meissner
Hali Ford
John Cody
Jon Misch
LJ McKansas
Marty Piombo
Natalie Bolton
Peter Baggenstos
Sabrina Thompson
Sarah Lacina
Troyzan Robertson

Okay, I've got 17 names so far. 8 men (I'm assuming Marty is a male name although it could be female), and 9 women. So I need 1 woman, and 2 men to fill out my list. 


People I don't want to see:

Jonathon Penner-I don't get the love for him and he's already had 3 chances to play
Ozzy-I really love Ozzy and I love watching him play, but for the same reason-he's already had 3 chances to play so the next criteria for me is to choose people who've only had 2 chances to play. 

Defiantly Malcolm Freberg since I love him and he's only played twice.
               Monica Culpepper because I remember her, like her and she's also played twice
               Jeff Varner is my last choice-he's the only male left that fits my criteria. 

So that's it, that's my cast. It's my be an odd way to choose players, but to me it's a fair way. I do realize in all likelihood one of my choices from the Koah Rong season will win this season and will no longer be eligible by my criteria. If that's the case, then I'll just choose someone else. I steadfastly don't want anyone who has won Survivor to make my cast. 

Debbie in MD.

I think we like the same kind of guys--the sort of neurotic, acerbic, witty New Yorker type. I love both Penner and Rob. I also love Stephen Fishbach.

I just want to see Spencer play every season until he wins. But he's said that he doesn't want to play again and he's not on the list, so I don't care! (I've only watched two Boston Rob seasons, and I don't like him, so I'm glad he's not on there either.)
