At the end of one of Survivor’s most boring reunion episodes ever last night (did we really need Blossom’s commentary on Colton?), Probst revealed the format for season 25, which will be held in the Philippines. 3 previous players who were evacuated for medical reasons in prior seasons will be returning for another shot. And I have all the T on who the 3 returnees are, so if you want to know, click on the jump down below!
I have to be honest–I don’t love this idea. I like the idea of bringing back people who were medevaced, but why only bring 3 among a cast of newbies? I’d much prefer they do all returnees or none. How great would an “Unfinished Business” (a la a couple seasons of Amazing Race ago) be? They could bring back people who made historically dumb moves (Erik, James), people who were medevaced, people who were eliminated due to purple rock debaucles, etc. I could think up a full cast just off the top of my head. But season 25 has already been filmed, so there’s no sense protesting it now. Mark your calendars, because it looks like the season premiere of Survivor: Philippines will premiere on September 19th.
So who, exactly, is coming back? Find out more after the jump! WARNING: Clicking the link will reveal who the returning players are, so if you don’t want to know, don’t look! Continue reading →
