Survivor: Allstars cast up on TVGuide with odds too! (spoilers)

http://www.tvguide.com/tv/coverstory/

Looks like 3 tribes to start:

Here is one amusing summary:


Quote:
RUPERT (Season 7: Pearl Islands)
Everybody’s slightly psychotic big brother STRATEGY: Reassure your tribe mates that ruthless, scavenging pirates can still have soft, mushy hearts. STRENGTHS: It’s hard not to love the guy who brings home the fish— especially when it’s eat fish or eat tree bark. WEAKNESS: Taking the game too personally. It’s not all about avenging high school slights. BOTTOM LINE: His strong survival skills would have to overcome a weak mental game. ODDS: 6-1
Good news for your Rupert fans!

Can't wait. Seeing it's the all-star version they can pull all the nasty twists they want as far as I am concerned.

My early favorite- Ethan.

Oops, have to be registered to view the links. I like Ethan, too. I like a lot of the players though, so don't really have a favorite yet. There was already a spoiler list about this in an earlier thread, I'm glad to see that some of the players listed as alternates are listed as players now. I think? Seems like Lex was listed as an alternate, or maybe it was Big Tom. Anyhow, I'm glad to see those two as well.

Man...Survivor. I never saw the first season, watched the next three or four pretty religiously (joined pools and whatnot) and haven't paid any attention to the last two or so.

But...I think I'll watch this. Don't know many of the later players, but it will be very interesting to watch players like Tina, Lex, Colby, the Rob-father, etc. play.

Yeah...I'll be there. This should be fun.

I'm looking forward to it. I've watched every season so far.
Based on Rupert's enthusiastic comment at the reunion ("I knew I could beat that guy!") in reference to Richard Hatch, I'm guessing he gets a lot farther than Hatch. Could that mean he wins the whole thing? I dunno.
I'm totally spoiler-free, BTW. I'm just speculating....

Would surprise me if someone out of Survivor Africa won it, as they were pretty hard core with the lack of food and heat. And the slight possiblity of being eaten.

I think Hatch goes quickly as does too-clever Robb.
