I can't confirm any of this but so far this is the rumored cast for Survivor Blood vs Water!
Tyson Apostol (Tocantines, Heroes vs Villans)
Aras Baskauskas (Panama, Winner)
Rupert Boneham (Pearl Islands, All Stars, Heroes vs Villians)
Monica Culpepper (One World)
Colton Cumbie (One World)
Kat Endorsson (One World)
Laura Morett (Samoa)
Gervase Peterson (Borneo)
RC Saint-Amour (Philippines)
Tina Wesson (Australia, All Stars)
Those are the returning players. The other tribe will be members of their family. The only people I know who are on that tribe are Brad Culpepper (NFL player) and Hayden Moss (Big Brother 12 winner) who is dating Kat. That is the rumored cast so far. Interesting group, glad to see Aras back Plus he's very cute. I have no clue who Laura is. I don't get why Rupert is back for his 4th time. And I hate Colton and Tyson but I think this is a good cast! What do you guys think?

"Interesting group, glad to see Aras back Plus he's very cute."
I am not glad at all. He is a pompous jerk and is also tied as my least favorite winner next to Richard Hatch. Colton and Tyson are other reasons for me to skip this season.
ETA: I am also not as big of a fan of Rupert's as I once was. He played the kid being bullied in the sandbox card against Stephenie Lagrossa and Tom Westman in 'Heroes vs. Villains' when they were not mean at all.

Get a life, Rupert!!!
And I'm sorry but I HATE Hayden Moss and his no-lipped ass.
ugh agree, rupert?... im just glad they finally have given up on shoving Boston Rob annd Russell down our throats
I hope this list isn't true. I was sick of Rupert the second time around. Tyson, Colton and Kat are all insufferable.
They are really reaching trying to fill out a tribe with this concept of "family" and "blood" if they are bringing on Kat and Hayden, who are dating. This show needs to stop with the gimmicky casting and concepts.
I agree even though I love Rupert he doesn't need to be on this show again. There were also a few rumors that RC won't be on the show anymore and Natalie from the first Fans vs Favs would be on the show with her mom. I liked her, decent player. Although even though this cast isn't great, I like it but not great, THANK GOD there aren't any Hantz on this season.
I don't know which is worse, a Hantz, Tyson, or Colton. They are all pretty equally heinous.
Natalie Bolton! Love to see her again.

'Survivor: Blood vs. Water': New cast and (lots of) twists revealed!
Updated On: 8/21/13 at 09:53 AM
WHY IS REDEMTION ISLAND BACK!!! That was the worst twist ever. As for the cast, I actually think it's interesting. I like it. I'll be rooting for people and I'll be hoping people go home very soon. The twist, is eh. I was hoping maybe Blood vs Water meant it would be blood related vs water related if that makes sense. I'm very excited for this though because BB15 sucks so this will get my mind of it. Thanks for posting that!

Apparently Candice is back because RC had to leave the show for reasons that were personal and involved her family.
That's to bad for RC but Candice is a much better choice anyway. And don't get me wrong I love Rupert, but I do not want him on this season. Bring someone better back. I know everyone was talking about Rob C and his wife but his wife had a kid so I guess he couldn't be on. Maybe Rupert was the choice after Rob.
I can't believe people still watch this show. Talk about stale.
I still watch this show because I enjoy it and find it preferable to many other shows including American Idol, X Factor, The Voice, Real Housewives of _____, The Bachelor/Bachelorette...
People still watch those shows as well.

I said earlier this year that my days of watching reality competition shows other than 'So You Think You Can Dance' are coming to an end this year, especially since I am going to working for 8:30 to 5:30 at a school starting tomorrow. Now that I have a full-time job I will only have time for enjoyable scripted television.
I might give this program another chance in the spring but that might has a very small "m".
As much as I love this show I did stop watching for a few seasons. Or didn't really pay attention. But the past 2 seasons have gotten me into it again thankfully. I don't regret not watching the seasons I did because those stunk. It's not as stale as you think. They are finding some decent newbies still. Malcolm especially. I think this season could either suck or potentially be very interesting. Especially not having their loved ones on the same tribe. I think that was actually smart on their move. But redemption island coming back makes absolutely no sense. That, was a dumb move. No reason for it to come back. No one liked it.
yes, the past couple of seasons have been good after having a string a several bad seasons(seasons 21-24).
Okay so last night I watched the cast videos and I'm gonna make my predictions.
First out on both tribes:
Rachel (Tyson's girlfriend)
Colton
My final five in no particular order:
Kat (Because she'll just be carried there because she does nothing)
Katie (Tina's daughter)
Candice ( She usually finishes 5th anyway)
Brad (Monica's husband)
Gervase (Because he's likable and hopefully has more gameplay this time)
I picked those people for certain reasons. I bet Brad will be voted out but will come back because of Redemption Island. Also I bet he'll win a couple individual immunities. I think Katie looks like the best newbie and I think she has what it takes to win. Gervase I think will have better strategy and hopefully stays deep but I think people will find him to likeable then vote him out. My pick to win I think is Katie but it's hard to tell this early on. My choices might be way off but this is what I think so far. What do you guys think?

Didn't watch the show last night and I do not have any desire to see this season. But serves CBS right for bringing back the evil little demon Colton and douche-bags like Tyson and Aras. Ratings are down 19% from the fall 2012 premiere.
TV Ratings Wednesday: 'Survivor' Returns Down, 'America's Got Talent' Finale Up, 'Big Brother' Finale Down, 'The X Factor' Steady
It just seems like its going to be an incredibly weak season. I mean, Rupert leaving the game after 2 minutes??? Unlike other people, I was really looking forward to seeing him in action again and he just pissed me off last night.
Updated On: 9/19/13 at 12:16 PM
Hmmm.... I fully expected NOT to like this season, but, I have to admit that after a few minutes I was really drawn in, and now I'm committed.
I don't mind the Rupert situation.
I set my Season Pass - so I guess I'm in for another season! (Haven't missed one yet...)

Not a Survivor fan but I WOULD tune in if Mike were going to "tell all" about his hot date to see "We're the Millers."
It just seems like its going to be an incredibly weak season. I mean, Rupert leaving the game after 2 minutes???
Personally, I thought that was the only upside to bringing him back. Hopefully, he loses Redemption and we don't have to put up with him any more. I usually really hate when they vote someone off immediately (what is the point?), but if it means Rupert could be gone in an episode or two, then I'm okay with it. I just wish they could have found a way to exterminate Colton and Tyson early as well so we could enjoy the season.
