Anytime that you have a former NFL player taking on a game like “Survivor,” there is a certain amount of intrigue that goes along with it. You could have a physical player like Grant Mattos that goes very far into the game, only to completely flame out strategically near the end. Or, you could have […]
One of the advantages of bringing loved ones into the “Survivor” game is pretty simple: You get an opportunity to bring back popular returning players attached to them. Unfortunately, it’s pretty hard to ensure that every single person brought in is a big character. Unfortunately, it’s just hard to get excited about Katie Collins as […]
There are not many “teams” on “Survivor: Blood vs. Water” that we legitimately feel are capable of really getting deep into the game together. The majority are going to probably see one person knocked out at some point, mostly because the last thing that they want to do is potentially risk a two-person alliance, especially […]

He’s got the pirate look, the tie-dye shirt, and the soft interior. He’s never really […]
One day after chronicling former “Survivor: Exile Island” champion Aras Baskauskas in our “Survivor: Blood vs. Water” castaway spotlight series, we’re back with the family member who bravely decided to join him for 39-and-a-half days on the Philippines this time around: His brother Vytas. First of all, we’re assuming that the correct way to pronounce […]
Anytime you see a “Survivor” champion making their way back into the ring, it’s always exciting … especially when it is someone like Aras Baskauskas.

In doing some of the loved ones during the “Survivor: Blood vs. Water” castaway spotlight series, we’re going to have a tough time trying to get just a whole lot of information.
