Posts: 81 (06/10/09 10:33 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	So to summarise: Survivor 19: Samoa - May be starting to film next week Survivor 20 - Looks like it'll be filmed back-to-back with season 19 - Should finish filming near the end of September - Also in Samoa - Could be an All-Stars season (I think that's more than a 75% chance given all these facts)

Especially with them still accepting applications at this point. Even if they were using it to deter people from the fact that it is an all stars season, that'd simply be a waste of paper and video tape. Not to mention the application tells them that filming will occur between this summer and fall--so there may be some cases where they couldn't just say "actually you'll be on 21 and it will film in the spring". We'll see though.

There wont be two Survivor: Samoa's. The ONLY season to be known by ONLY a tag or twist is All-Stars

That way they could stay in Samoa without having to be "Survivor: Samoa 2". This doesn't necessarily mean that the final season will be All-Star related. It could be very "back to basics" and twist-less (or, the more likely option, they could throw every twist imaginable in a last ditch effort to be interesting).

They always cast regardless of whether it's an all-stars or not. actually, about 3 weeks into casting for season 8 they announced all stars and sent back all tapes and applications that hadn't been opened. for those that had, they were saved for season 9. right now we're about 3.5 months after the 19/20 app was set up.

Most of the good people were taken for FvF. However if s20 is indeed in Samoa, there'll surely be a strong twist/theme. But there are plenty of other options for them to take. I suspect choosing to film back-to-back is a budget thing from CBS. Didn't they just cancel Without a Trace and Cold Case for budgeting reasons, even though the ratings were ok? (I'm not in the US and I can't remember which network those shows were on). So now SEG needs to find a theme to make s20 seem fresh.

I definitely wouldn't be surprised if season 20 is an All-Stars season for the following reasons: 1. Probst has made it clear lately (particularly in his blogs during Tocantins) that he is very keen for another All-Stars season 2. Micronesia wan not a full All-Stars season. A total of only 9 players from seasons 9-15 were chosen. There are numerous players from these seasons (eg. Shane) who I'm sure they'd love to include and would have been included in Micronesia if it was a full All-Stars season. 3. Additionally, players from seasons 15-18 (or maybe 19) will probably make up the majority of the All-Stars cast, along with a few of these people from seasons 9-15. 4. The characters from seasons 15-18 (particularly from Gabon and Tocantins) have been some of the most memorable characters we have ever had on Survivor (whether they were loved or hated - Sugar, Coach etc). China seemed to be the rebirth of Survivor after a lacklustre period from seasons 9-14, and there have been so many memorable characters since then who could all be included in an All-Stars season. I think the Survivor producers would be wanting to take advantage of this sooner rather than later, and this could lead to them having a full All-Stars in season 20.

Maybe not necessarily Allstars, although that seems most likely, but we could get something like Battle of the Sexes(again), Couples, Old vs Young. Something along those lines although hopefully something much more creative and interesting than any of those. It's a game of wait and see, but the speculation is fun.

Considering they've already used twists like gender, age and race to separate tribes in normal seasons, I doubt another minor twist like this would suffice as a big enough twist. I hope they don't do couples, it messes too much with the concept of Survivor. I can't think of any twist apart from All-Stars that could work for season 20.

Yes, I am aware they have done that already, I was merely using examples. And they have done the gender thing twice so I wouldn't rule out seeing them recycle the same lame twists. And yes, couples would suck.

Either way, seems like great spoiling potential for the second one, as the crew fraternize longer on Samoa, and with the extra long wait between shooting and airing.

For that reason, I may skip spoilers for the Fall/Spring, since knowing the outcome of S20 at the beginning of S19 seems....not fun.
