Learn Who They’re Serving Up For SURVIVOR: FRESH MEAT!!

Published at:  Jan 06, 2008 3:17:49 AM CST

SPOILER ALERT !!

I am – Hercules!!

If you stuck with the “Survivor: China” reunion show till the end, you know that “Survivor: Micronesia” producers are borrowing again from “The Road Rules/Real World Challenge”: half the contestants are newbies and the other half are vets of prior seasons.

The new Entertainment Weekly reveals who’s coming back. None is a former winner:

FROM SEASON 7 (PEARL ISLANDS):
Jon “Fairplay” Dalton, 33, liar.

FROM SEASON 9 (VANUATU):
Eliza Orlins, 25, hot track star.
Ami Cusack, 34, Playboy model and barista.

FROM SEASON 12 (PANAMA):
Cirie Fields, 37, couch potato, fearer of leaves.

FROM SEASON 13 (COOK ISLANDS):
Jonathan Penner, 45, abandoner of Yul and Becky.
Ozzy Lusth, 26, challenge monster and porn star.
Parvati Shallow, 25, smiley cocktail waitress/boxer.

FROM SURVIVOR 14 (FIJI):
Yao-Man Chan, 55, betrayed by his Dreamz.

FROM SEASON 15 (CHINA):
Amanda Kimmel, 23, Amazonian former beauty queen.
James Clement, 30, bodybuilder/grave-digger.

Dalton is the only contestant who played prior to the 2004 All-Stars edition.

The new season should prove a challenge for Jeff Probst, who reportedly hated working with the spoiled veterans during the eighth, all-star season -- and who reportedly loathes the loathsome Dalton.

Seasons 10 (Palau) and 11 (Guatemala) are unrepresented (perhaps because both starred Stephenie LaGrossa and Bobby Jon Drinkard?).

Newbies, all said to be superfans, include a commercial builder, a business owner, a personal trainer, a writer/actor, a firefighter, a golf-course vendor, an ice cream scooper, and a homosexual beauty pageant coach. Four of the 10 newbies are in their twenties; seven are 34 or younger; the oldest newbie is 48.

Season 16 kicks off Feb. 7 on CBS.

    Ozzy and James

    by freekill

    I think it's pretty cool that both Ozzy and James are back. Ozzy is probably up there for one of the best competitors and raw challenge winners on any season. James was a pure challenge winner as well that go totally out smarted by his tribe...

    James? Yao-Man?? PARVATI???

    by shermdawg

    I'm so there. I love me some Parvati. They should've got Dreamz back though. And even if he's possibly a ratings draw for the show, it was a bad move letting Fairplay return. The guys the definition of "asshole".

    Jonny Fairplay vs. Everyone

    by conanbaltar

    I anticipate a physical tussle the likes of which we haven't seen since Danny Bonaduce flipped Jonny at the FOX Reality Channel Reality Awards 2007, causing Jonny to lose teeth and break a toe. He will also probably make fun of Jeff Probst.

    by betaraybill07

    How desperate is this for ratings....you know he's gone just as soon as his team loses their first immunity challenge.

    Fairplay is a major league douchebag

    by big jim

    check out what he has listed in his bio as occupation: Professional Wrestler/Realilty Star. Wasn't his 15 minutes up like 3 years ago? He was an entertaining player the first time around because he was such a great liar and no one knew it. But this time EVERYONE knows he can not be trusted. He doesn't bring anything else to the table other than an extra body for your alliance. But since no one in their right mind will make an alliance with this guy he is the obvious choice to be the first to go. Hell, he's such an annoying prick I would not be surprised if his team throws their first immunity challenge just so they can be rid of him.Amanda, Ami, Parvati - that's just good television!

    They screwed a lot of former survivors

    by jtp8000

    It wa originally supposed to be all ASS but at the last second they cut 1/2 the cast and decided to go with the super fan idea. From what I understand Twila, Coby, Ian. Terry and others got set to go and then were told to stay home

    Too contrived

    by messyjoe


    I really think these 'managed' formula approaches are too contrived. They want to create conflict and manipulate the results. I hope
    I am wrong. By the way all the ass and tit shots that have been gathered along the way and censored out are probably making the Survivor executives dinner circuit.
