This season was originally supposed to have only 18 contestants, but SeeBS decided to make two alternates regular contestants at the last minute. The alternates were Ashley and Erik.
Natalie reminds me of Calli from CSI Miami.
Judging from the past three seasons (Gabon, Tocantins, Samoa), it seems like there’s a new unofficial Survivor rule. The young woman who’s the LEAST mactress-y (model + actress = mactress) MUST be voted out first. She must also meet at least one of the following qualifications:
- Being the smartest young woman
- Being the most athletic young woman
Meanwhile, the following types can NEVER be voted out first:
Weak, out-of-shape liberal old men with beer guts. Right, MIKE?
Weak, dumb young women who latch onto alpha males and ride their coattails, and then claim that they’re strong because they do cardio. Right, ASHLEY?
Jerks who weaken their tribe by stirring up trouble and sowing discord. Right, RUSSELL H. and BEN?
