Ep5_236


Jeff: I'm standing in the heart of the Amazonian rainforest, and for 20 castaways, an unforgettable journey is about to begin.

Most of these castaways know what they're in for when they applied for Surv!vor - 24/7 strategy, a social game, interesting challenges, non-stop drama and competitive adversaries.

But what they don't know is how the game will begin, and how the tribes have been divided - a twist that we've been intending to do on Surv!vor for quite awhile now.


Ep5_233

Jeff: So far, we've got our 2 tribal captains.

Jafet will be the captain of the Jaburu tribe.
nelehrocks will be the captain of the Tambaqui tribe.



They're still wondering why they've been chosen as tribal captains, and here's a clue: it isn't random at all. They were picked because of something they've written in their Casting Call application. And likewise for everyone, this was how everyone's tribes were determined.


Ep5_213

Jeff: We have to remember that Surv!vor is a social game that tests interpersonal dynamics, and we've had different seasons pitting different people against each other.

In Surv!vor: Vanuatu, we've already done the Battle of the Sexes, and in Surv!vor: Cook Islands, we've tried to divide the cast by race. But this time we're really going to push the envelope with the real players.

The actual CBS Survivor: The Amazon was a Battle of the Sexes, but this time we've decided to tweak it a little with our tribal selections. We've been hinting at this 'revolutionary battle' since the Samoa finale previews, and finally this mystery is going to be unveiled.




























Ep5_225

Jeff: Jafet and nelehrocks were the only 2 castaways to explicitly state that they were bisexual, while everyone else picked either gay or straight.

This was exactly how the tribal selection went down.
