For a guy who is technically a cop, doesn’t Tony Vlachos have a name that sounds almost immediately like a villain in a “Rocky” movie? This is a guy who has a job that requires him to be on the good side of the law, but on “Survivor: Cagayan,” he says that he is going […]
Anytime that you hear the words “nuclear engineer,” there is one thing that you tend to think: Smart. Therefore, it makes sense that J’Tia Taylor is a member of the Brains tribe on “Survivor: Cagayan.” She is clearly driven, can wear a variety of different hats, and is an interesting addition to a group that […]
The castaway spotlights and bad puns continue for “Survivor: Cagayan,” and that brings us to David Samson. As the President of the Miami Marlins, he knows baseball just like Jeff Probst knows denim shirts or Boston Rob knows baseball caps. He’s one of the most successful guys on the season, and what is interesting about […]
We know that there are some people out there who really do not like seeing people on “Survivor” who have found fame somewhere else, and we always wonder why these people get so upset. We realize that they are taking a place away from someone else, but why shouldn’t someone like Cliff Robinson get an […]
Just like there always seems to be at least on beauty queen and one GLBT castaway on every “Survivor” season (at least on average), we also tend to have at least one person who falls into that “alternative” category. Sometimes, that means loving heavy metal and wearing a signature t-shirt (Billy Garcia), and sometimes, that […]
Just in case you thought that we were going to get a “Survivor” season that was suddenly light on the twists after “Blood vs. Water,” get ready to be proven wrong.

There are people on “Survivor” who you don’t feel are particularly destined to go far, and there are also people that you want to go far, but probably won’t. This is where Kassandra “Kass” McQuillen falls in our camp right now. She’s got a pretty interesting strategy, an obvious mind for the game, and some […]
The fun thing about going into a season of “Survivor” with all-new players is that there is such a feeling of unknown that goes along with it. Typically, you can pinpoint about half of the cast who you think are going to be good players, and most of them will either make it pretty far, […]
Did you ever watch “Weakest Link,” and you knew that there was one person who was clearly better than most of the others? You knew that the team was going to use them to get a ton of money in the bank, and then throw them aside late in the game, since nobody would have […]
In some ways, we’re not really that interested in seeing the “Beauty” Tribe on “Survivor: Cagayan,” mostly because there is such an ego that comes with that, and an edit that will likely stick to stereotypes. But Alexis Maxwell is an interesting contestant based on what she says in her cast video. She’s a psychology […]
