Each team will have a returning player who was removed from play in a previous season because of illness or injury. Spoiler sites have named the supposed returning players and the regular media has picked it up. I won't be listed them yet, but you are free to do so on this thread.

The cast includes retired major league baseball player Jeff Kent (2000 National League Most Valuable Player with the San Francisco Giants) and actress Lisa Whelchel (The New Mickey Mouse Club, The Facts of Life).
Kalabaw Tribe: Carter, Dana, Jeff, Katie, Sarah, returning player to be named later

YeeeeHawww.
Been looking forward to this thread for a couple of months now.
I hate it when they bring back prior players.
If you want added to or removed from this ping list, please let me know.

Thanks for the information. I was wondering if it was cancelled after seeing that apparently Jeff Probst has a daytime syndicated talk show of all things.
i have never watched a single episode of this. want to do survivor in the phillipines? simulate the bataan death march and japanese prison camps. see how many survive that.
I prefer The Amazing Race but I think I’ll watch to see how Jeff Kent and his prickly personality does.
Katie (Hanson) is Former Miss Delaware 2011
Angie Layton is Miss Utah Teen USA 2010
Pictures required in this thread?
Do you want to avoid listing the 3 returning players?
Angelia Layton @AngeliaLayton
As I said in my initial post, you are free to list them. I myself am simply waiting for the official notice. :)
Miss Layton is follow on twitter Mitt Romney as well as Bree Olson (yes THAT one). And Justin Bieber & Kim Kardashian.
Can’t wait.
My take on the cast - http://www.cbs.com/shows/survivor/cast/
Abi-Maria - seems more of lib world citizen but she’ll be eye candy for the guys so they’ll keep her.
Angie - more eye candy for the guys but the gals might want her out.
Artis - if he brings his “yelling at the tv” attitude to the game it’ll be great for us viewers but not so much for his game play.
Carter - can climb a tree and rope wing his way outta there
Dana - gaydar?
Dawson - seems the kind who’s all sweet and innocent until she turns on you.
Denise - sex therapist. Yo, Denise, if you can’t spell “do rag”, you shouldn’t wear one.
Jeff - will be voted out at jury simply because they’ll decide he doesn’t need the money
Katie - An unemployed beauty queen who wanted on the show to find her dream guy
Lisa - no down side to her except for being an Oprah fan.
Malcolm - uh, really, hair ties and OJ was just legal drama? He can follow Carter outta the game.
Pete and his pillow buddy Hambone - will Hambone compete as himself? They’ll both probably make jury.
RC - should be great in competitions, especially if there’s a hoop rolling comp.
Roxy - seems nice but nice doesn’t get far in Survivor
Zane - we don’t need another Brandon
*********Spoiler Don’t look if you don’t want to know the returning contestants********
Stupin - woo hoo! I’ve been wanting him to come back. Hoping he and Lisa make it to the finals.
Penner - he’s ok
Swan - probably gone early
