Survivor 2016 starts this Wednesday on CBS and we’re ready to see what this new cast can do on the Survivor beach. Jeff Probst is way ahead of us, of course, and shares his review of the cast in a preview look at the season.
With 18 castaways in the mix that’s a lot of players to get through, so let’s take a brief look at Jeff’s assessment for each of them. Keep in mind that while Jeff is usually right he’s definitely missed the mark with his early predictions for how the castaways will play with the rest of their tribe mates.
Jeff Probst’s Cast Highlights:
Gondol – Beauty Tribe:
- Michele Fitzgerald – “Magnetic draw.”
- Nick Maiorano – “Cocky, arrogant, 100% villain.”
- Julia Sokolowski – Sharpest young mind.
- Caleb Reynolds – Superstar if he makes it to the end.
- Anna Khait – Beauty & looks give her an edge.
- Tai Trang – “The energy I wish I had more of.”
Chan Loh – Brains Tribe:
- Neal Gottlieb – “Really bright & stealth like.”
- Debbie Wanner – “Best likened to somebody like Coach.”
- Peter Baggenstos – “Cocky. Thinks he knows everything.”
- Elisabeth Markham – “She is a BRAIN!”
- Joseph Del Campo – “Fit like I wish I was.”
- Aubry Bracco – “She is a nerd. She embraces all of that.”
To Tang – Brawn Tribe:
- Cydney Gillon – “No one will ever assume I’m as bright as I am.”
- Scot Pollard – “So empathetic and vulnerable.”
- Alecia Holden – “Timebomb. Crazy one minute, super focused the next.”
- Darnell Hamilton – “Massive question mark for me.”
- Jennifer Lanzetti – “She has that thing that no one else out here has.”
