Hopefully RC isn't on this season. Her and Monica make absolutely no sense as to why they're being brought back. I kind of understand Monica because her husband but still.

I'm seriously considering skipping this season. So many people I don't care for :/ I'm over people returning a second time, but more so I'm over people returning a THIRD or FOURTH time. That's super lame, give others a chance for a second shot at it rather than giving someone a fourth chance. It's really ridiculous. All I'm saying is, CHARLIE should have been casted <3
Nah j/k but really why Candice, Rupert, Tyson, Tina?? I don't mind Tyson, but the others I'm done with. Aras is the worst winner in survivor history IMO cuz he was just kinda dumb and not strategic in my book, plus WHY give a former winner another shot???
RC I find the most annoying person to ever be on the show, she was strategizing 24/7, no wonder it made Abi and Pete weary of her but they edited everything in RC's favor. Her bitterness in Ponderosa was pathetic. Her laugh is also super annoying, that's the thing I'm least looking forward to about this season.
I like Kat, but I don't like Hayden. I don't mind Colton at all aside from the racist remarks, but he should be out early... and I love Laura because she is just SO obnoxious... but that's about it. Not much to look forward to :/

MAJOR SPOLIERS TO S27 BELOW:
The 1st promo is out, 20 person season, though the commercial makes it look like 16, which I would've loved:
- Aras (S12) and Vytas (brother) - Rupert (S7, S8, S20) and Laura (wife) - Monica (S24) and Brad (husband) - Colton (S24) and Caleb (fiance) - Tina (S2, S8) and Katy (daughter) - Kat (S24) and Hayden (BB12 winner/Kat's boyfriend) - Tyson (S18,S20) and Rachel (girlfriend) - Gervase (S1, O.G.) and Marissa (niece)
Not in the commercial - Laura (S19) and Ciera (daughter) - Candice (S13,S20 somehow) and John (husband)
More spoilers from the Dalton Ross article:
* For the first time ever, the game will not be 39 days long, but rather 39-and-a-half days, as the couples will begin the game the night prior to day one with a new twist titled “Day Zero.” The 10 pairs will be sent out at sunset to 10 different locations to live by themselves for the night. They will then all meet up to be officially welcomed by host Jeff Probst and start the game the next morning. “The whole idea was to try and get them thinking and maybe believing that they would play as a pair,” says Probst.
* Just minutes after congregating, the returning players and their loved ones will be split into two different tribes, with the returning players making up the yellow Galang tribe and the newbies comprising the red Tadhana tribe. “Suddenly your partner becomes your adversary, your competition,” says Probst. “And that was the whole premise of Blood Vs. Water. How is that going to play out in a game where only one person can win?”
* First impressions can be key in the game like Survivor, and that will prove true here as just moments after meeting each other, each team will vote one member off their tribe. They will later be informed that these people have not been voted out of the game, but rather will be sent to Redemption Island, which makes its return after having been absent for the past three seasons. There they will battle to stay alive and reenter the game at a later point.
* Confused yet? Well, it gets even more confusing! Jeff Probst will then immediately offer each of the loved ones of the two people voted off the opportunity to trade places with them, meaning that if, say, returning player Tina is voted out of her tribe at the start, her daughter Katie can opt to take her place at Redemption Island instead, and Tina would then join the tribe of newbies.
* As mentioned, Redemption Island is back. Anyone voted out will be sent there and will then compete in a three person duel. The last place finisher in each contest is out of the game for good, while the top two remain. However, if someone’s loved one is still in the game they can take their loved one’s place before a duel. (So if, say, Monica is at Redemption Island but her husband Brad thinks he would do better at a duel involving strength, he can swap places with her, electing to do the duel while she takes his place on his tribe. They could then swap again at the next duel if it is a contest better suited to her strengths.) “That puts blood and water to the test,” says Probst. “And we’re gonna do it at every duel. So the first time early in the game, somebody may say ‘It’s just too early.” But as those duels increase and they get closer to what they think might be a merge, their strategy is going to start to change.”
* That’s not all when it comes to Redemption Island. The person who finishes first in each duel will also get to give a clue to the location of a hidden immunity idol to any person from either tribe that they choose. “There’s all these things you can do,” says Probst. “Because for a moment, even though you’re on the outest, furthest part of the game, you have a little bit of power.”

Yes! I knew they would do Redemption Island. I for one am glad they're doing that. It's a perfect twist to use with this kind of cast. Wow and that twist to switch with your loved one...I take back what I said. This season might be really awesome.
Watch Hayden win this...

This season has a lot of potential based on those twists. From those twists, it sounds like it's going to be good so hopefully it lives up to the hype!

It's about time they did something interesting with Survivor, I swear.
Every other season is so bland and boring... They could do so much too, but they keep it simple.

I wish they'd go completely back to basic. No crazy twists, no returnees, just basic Survivor.

I'm rooting for Hayden. I think it's dumb that Rupert is on it. He's been on too many
