Survivor returns on February 17, 2016 at 8/7c with a 90-minute season premiere that’ll take us back to the beach of Cambodia where we’ll watch the 18 castaways, the new cast of Survivor 2016, split in to three tribes each with their own strengths. Well, I guess beauty is a strength of some sort for the game, right?

The three Survivor tribes are Brains, Brawn, and Beauty like we saw the last time this theme was applied, but really the categorization of these castaways is a little silly. There are a lot of tough looking castaways so wouldn’t most of them get the Brawn group? I’m also questioning a few of the Beauty picks, but we’ll see how that turns out. After 30+ days on the beach I’m not sure anyone will still qualify for that last group.

Which tribe do you think will prove to have what it takes to send a member to the winner’s circle this season on Survivor 2016 Kaoh Rong?

  1. Yeah, ‘Beauty’ (in my opinion) is kind of an ignorant choice…not to mention degrading. At least to those of us who watch and don’t feel pretty…or smart…or strong. I know this theme has been used before, but to me, it’s a little goofy. Will the ‘Beauty’ group be presented with roses by Jeff when they come ashore? ;)

  2. I could not agree more Sharona, they need to come up with something different. It will wind up being like idol which is its last season

  3. Thank goodness for that too! Hi Carol and Sharona :-) Hi Mary, i’m sure you’re out there, somewhere ;-)
    I was over idol a long time ago. I really think they need to come up with a new way to make the tribes. How about 20’s, 30’s & 40’s and see which generation fares better. just throwing any idea out there besides the way they have it again…beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
    Just saying. Happy Thirsty Thursday

  4. Hi JO1, I sure am here. I’m just glad Survivor is back, TV has been so boring lately and The Amazing Race soon as well – I’m doing my happy dance!!!

  5. Hi J I am finally back. That would be awesome I love your idea. Tomorrow is Friday thank god. You bracing for this crazy weather. We are suppose to get ice then snow then ice, this place will come to a stand still. I think all they have is one snow plow in the entire area here. HAHHA nice to see you again.

  11. Hi Lilly! Where’s everyone been for so long, hiding? It’s great to finally hear from everyone again :-)

  12. So, so busy with work! But excited Survivor (and TAR) are coming back so we have an excuse to chat.

  14. So looking forward to another great season ~ especially enjoying Jeff’s positive perky personality and, of course, his handsome shirts …

  17. Hi Ladies! I am sooo excited that The Walking Dead is starting..then Survivor! I got so hooked on TWD because I was watching you all talk about it and figured why not check it out; Now i’m hooked..we even watched the season of Fear the Walking dead just for the fix LOL.
    When does TAR start? More important is when does BBC start?
    Hope you all have a wonderful weekend, heading down to Foxwoods casino to see Wanda Sykes. We decided that we would drive back tonight before the storm blows in. Up here in western MA we aren’t expected to get much of anything (lucky :-) us) Stay warm and safe my friends :-)

  18. Hi JO1! I’m so glad you’re enjoying TWD I’ve watched a TWD marathon twice! I also watched Fear TWD but prefer TWD. The Amazing Race starts Feb. 12th and as for BB Canada I wish I knew, I keep trying to find a date but no luck. Have a great time seeing Wanda Sykes awesome!

  19. Hi JO1 ~ I remember when Foxwoods was being built ~ it’s just several miles away from where my friends live in CT. Wanda Sykes is a favorite of mine ~~ enjoy!

  20. So jealous, JO1, that you’re able to see Wanda Sykes–absolutely one of my favs—but also happy for you that you’re able to see her (but mostly jealous..just kidding!).

  21. Thanks Ladies! So we drove the hour and a half down there, played a little slots, hit the buffet and went over to the show only to find out that it was cancelled and rescheduled until Aug 6th. So we had the option of getting a refund or waiting. I am going to wait because I really want to see her. My fiance’ said “babe, you know black people ain’t going to travel to where there is supposed to be bad weather/snow”….All I could do was laugh. I said babe “just because you won’t travel (he’s Jamaican for those that don’t know) don’t mean all people (especially black people) won’t travel. I figured it must be because where she was coming from had delays or cancellations etc.
    So we played a little more then headed home. The snow just missed us up here, not even a flake! Ok I will end my book of a post now LOL

  22. Mary, I also like TWD better than FTWD. I am looking forward to the shows starting back up. I started watching a new series called the Shannara Chronicles. It is based on books written by Terry Brooks (one of my fav. authors)
    Happy Monday!

  23. It was surprisingly pretty dead when we went Friday. Think they are starting to lose their crowd. Now MA had 3 casinos in the works. The CT casinos will take a pretty big hit when they open.

  24. Bummer ~~ sorry Wanda cancelled, but August 6th is something to look forward to. Your babe is Jamaican! ~ I adore their sing-song way of talking. Hope you didn’t lose too much $ playing. Not even a flake of snow here in southern NH either ~ but I was concerned for my friends and relatives in NY, NJ, DC, VA and No Carolina. Some were housebound for a few days like my Goddaughter in No Carolina ~ they don’t often get snow ~ her road was finally plowed today (Mon. 1/25). They’re all safe. I feel so bad for those who lost loved ones. Stay safe …

  25. Thanks Cuddles. We actually came home with $20 more than what we went there with, so good times. Aug is good, shouldn’t have any bad weather ;-) I was glad we didn’t get any of the snow. They got hit hard in the Mid-Atlantic! They aren’t used to that like we are. It was sad to hear about so many losses from the storm. I hope you are feeling well these days! Looking forward to Survivor starting.

  26. Hi JO1 ~ WOW, $20, a ‘bonanza’, good for you! Friends and relatives in Ashburn VA/Wash DC area were snowed in like never b4 but made the best of it. Feeling pretty good ~ another appointment with oncologist Mon, hopefully a clean bill of health. I’m so so looking forward to seeing Caleb trying to outwit, outplay, and outlast his competitors!! Have a super weekend!

  27. Yup, I’m rich now hahaha! I will be sending you prayers for clean bill of health and happy positive thoughts.
    Caleb, will prove entertaining for sure!! He is a special kind of character. Have a great weekend yourself :-)
