I can't help it; Joe seems like a cool dude, haha. Kinda like a cross between Tom Westman and Rudy Boesch. <3

Yeah, I see a handful of players who may or may not have villain, quasi-villain, or anti-hero vibes, haha.

And I TOTALLY agree. :P I mean, in Cagayan you could make a similar argument that the members of certain tribes were interchangeable (strong people in the brain tribe, beautiful people in the brawn tribe, brains in the beauty tribe), but they all still had a dynamic that made you feel that this tribe definitely personified that trait (particularly the brawn and brain tribes), and above all else, it was still more or less excusable because that cast was so perfect. Here? SO many of them are definitely interchangeable, including Alecia being Brawn instead of Beauty...and Tai being...Beauty. Ugh. Seriously? Like, SERIOUSLY? The only tribe that seems like it might fit its trait is Brains, which I have a feeling will be an epic failure again. :P Above all else, I feel that this was just a lazy excuse for dividing the tribes, and they were all too eager to repeat a theme from an amazing season in the hopes that they'll capture lighting in a bottle again (yeah, because that worked out SO well for Blood vs. Water 2, didn't it? :P)

All in all, I'm not too stoked for this season. After all, there was a reason they switched the seasons' air dates when this one was long since filmed and edited together before Cambodia even started the fan vote. I'm not getting my hopes up, and for the second season in a row, I'm not making any official predictions.
