Part two of my Survivor Second Chance Preview
Keith Nale
Original Season: San Juan Del Sur
Original Finish: 4th place
Keith is a difficult player to analyze. On the one hand he has no idea how to play Survivor, and on the other, in his original season he won immunity three times and was one immunity win away from maybe winning the season. I think in Second Chance he will have a similar role as he did in his first season, a good old boy who will become expendable and go out somewhere around the merge.
Jeff Varner
Original Season: Australia
Original Finish: 10th
I could not be more excited to see Varner back on Survivor. He was screwed by a rule that has since been replaced. Varner managed to stay somewhat relevant in the fan community and people who watched Australia most likely voted for him as well. He says he’s ready for this new age Survivor, we’ll have a chance to find out soon.
Kimmi Kappenberg
Original Season: Australia
Original Finish: 12th place
Kimmi is another interesting person to have return. I didn’t think too much about her ever returning until the list of possible second chance players. I didn’t vote for her, but I’m not too upset that she made cast. I’m also not too high on her chances. Her most memorable moment was getting a finger waved in her face. I think she will stay around as a non threat until she becomes expendable.
Monica Padilla
Original Season: Samoa
Original Finish: 7th Place
Monica was a great character in her first season. An under the radar player who stood up to Hantz in the final days of her game. I’m all for supporting anyone who gave Hantz crap and I’m very intrigued about her chances in this game. I’ve seen a lot of support for her in the internet fan community, many people are picking her to win. I don’t see it happening but she will probably make the Jury.
Woo Hwang
Original Season: Cagayan
Original Finish: 2nd
People give Woo a lot of crap for the move he made at the end of season 28. He chose to bring Tony to the end over Kass, and it cost him a million dollars. What is lost on a lot of people is the fact that he was so close to winning that season. I don’t see anyone coming after him until well after the merge. Immunity runs aren’t impossible just ask Mike Holloway, but I don’t see it happening two seasons in a row.
Jeremy Collins
Original Season: San Juan Del Sur
Original Finish: 10th Place
Jeremy seems like a great guy, and a good leader. The problem is he’s too intense. He loves the show so much that in his first season I feel like it cost him his game. Maybe he has learned something from his experience but considering he’s only had about a year in between attempts I can’t see it. He won’t go out premerge because there are bigger fish to fry but I think around 10th place is likely once again.
Terry Deitz
Original Season: Exile Island
Original Finish: 3rd
Terry was the last player to finish third before they added a final three. (Though Cirie, Erin, and Kass all finished in third in rare seasons when the show went back to a final two) He may have been the reason they added the final three. He was a fan favorite who could have won the game. In this season however he won’t be winning every immunity challenge. In fact his age may make him less threatening, and keep him around longer than if he had come back right after Exile Island. I think his biggest weakness when it comes to Survivor is his strategic game. He needs someone to help him out there, and if someone does pick him up as a shield they will be smart enough to get rid of him before the end.
Ps
PPS: While that season of Survivor Rutland has come and gone we are always looking for people who are interested in playing.
