[Gasometer]

Cant wait....air date?

 

[Underarm]

That's a stacked and very young cast. I suppose with no themed casting for the first time since San Juan del sur they can choose the people they want...

 

[Ochre]

Have been nervous about this season ever since Probst's vid at the live KIA last season

 

[SugarShane]

Not sold on the premise yet, but hey, Survivor is Survivor.

 

[NinjaSwan]

First season with an all new cast where the original tribes aren't themed since Samoa (S19).

 

[Crimson Azure]

Haven't missed a season yet, so in again for this one.

 

[Struggle]

Donathan? Really?

 

[Ochre]

Voting booth looks incredible

 

[drd23]

That's an interesting choice of swimsuit by the brunette in the front row, third from the right

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Looks like an Australian Big Brother cast except there's black people

 

[drd23]

Donathan? Really?

Kellyn (assuming that n on the end is not a typo) isn't much better

 

[trueblue_91]

I shouldn't be, but for some reason I'm all in on this season. Cannot wait

Awesome.

That came around quick!

Not going to spoil the results, but I thought I’d explain how Ghost Island works.
So basically, the winners of the immunity pick someone from the losing side to go to Ghost Island. There, they will have a simple challenge for a some kind of advantage/idol/clue.
This chosen player is also “exiled” from the tribal council that night. This means that they can change up the voting dynamics in the game in 1 vote differences (this is what I thought the original Exile Island would do).

I think Ghost Island is going to be really cool. I really like the exile/kidnap twist.

With the time sensitive nature of advantages in s35, I think they can find the right balance.

I watched it earlier. Liked what I saw.

 

[Drummond]

Half hour in and got good vibes from this season already. Liking the contestants.
