Just to be sure I’ve got this straight … you think this cast is bad, and your suggested solution is to turn instead to football and basketball players who make more money in a month than they would make if they won the show?
I’m glad casting isn’t getting their advice from you. How motivated do you think they’d be? How diverse would the cast be? How interesting? Exactly. SEG, go with what’s working. China and this season work.
Thank for the blog, great info, now go eat!
Well, you’re obviously not an athlete, because the majority of them thrive on competition. The prize could go to charity, because they all could use a tax break. How about thinking outside your box. Pick a name. Your vision of ‘diversity’ is skewed. The consensus is that this cast sucks. Obviously you’re not reading the boards, just spouting off.
Love your blogs Jeff, keep up the good work, your my favourite celebrity ever, you rock!!!
I love your blog, Jeff! Keep it up! =)

Jeff, Q: I am not a U.S. citizen and would like to be one of the cast aways, Is it possible? I lived in the U.S and the UK for a year so my english is fairly understanble, don´t think it should be a problem for people to get me as my accent is mostly californian… I guess it would at some flavour to the show as it is something that has never been tryed before.
I have been watching every episode of survivor for the last 5 years and I guess that this is remarkable given that I have been living in 4 different countries during this period and none of them is the U.S. or Canada… I just enjoy the show and the strategy part of it.
The word is add, not at. I guess that ‘…mostly californian” means Mexican. Californian should be capitalized. Don’t apply unless you have a six-pack, and I don’t mean Tecate.
So?! regardless of my country of residence and nationality I just need to be entertaining and pleasant to stare at and write the name of no nation or state on the show to be considered to be on it? is that what you are saying? cool then… I am not Mexican but i figure that is irrelevant so long as I am not a U.S. citizen
I love Survivor and wath it faithfully. But have never seen suh an obnoxious person as randy…..
Wis he would be next to go.
Jeff, I really hope the elephant is not the only exciting moment this season. So far this has been one of the most disappointing seasons I have seen. You are the only one that has been entertaining the look on your face has been priceless. I feel like the producers choose badly this time. Terrible cast! In a jungle and starving??? Whats up with that? OMG!! Give us more than Fang they are boring!!
