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.
