Survivor: Samoa will premiere on Thursday at 7:00 pm on CBS. It is the nineteenth season of the award winning reality television series. This season there are twenty contestants divided into two tribes, Galu and Foa Foa. Here is a short synopsis for each competitor from the show’s charming host, Jeff Probst, that I found on SurvivorFever.net.Foa Foa Tribe
Ashley Trainer (22) Maple Grove, MN Spa Sales
Probst’s Prognostication: I think she's really got some spunk, some true gut. It wouldn't surprise me at all for her to go deep in the game.
Ben Browning (28) Los Angeles, CA Bar Manager
Probst’s Prognostication: Is a time bomb. Dude is a time bomb waiting to go off, the question is when. It's gonna happen.
Betsy Bolan (48) Campton, NH Police Officer
Probst’s Prognostication: Betsy is a major threat in this game because she is really likeable and she will never quit.
Mike Borassi (62) Marina del Rey, CA Personal Chef
Probst’s Prognostication: He's not going to last long in this game. I just don't think so. It's too hard out here.
Marisa Calihan (26) Cincinnati, OH Student
Probst’s Prognostication: I wish Marisa would go deeper but if I had to bet, she'll be out by episode 5.
Elizabeth Kim (33) New York, NY Attorney
Probst’s Prognostication: Don't trust Liz. She could go far and I think she'll be a quiet person who maybe doesn't say a whole lot and before you know it, she's in the final.
Russell Hantz (36) Dayton, Texas Oil Company Owner
Probst’s Prognostication: Is the closest thing to evil we've ever had on Survivor. The guy has got a diabolical mind.
Jaison Robinson (28) Chicago, IL Law Student
Probst’s Prognostication: I don't think Jaison is going to become an early target. There's no reason. He's not going to irritate anyone. I would love to give that check to Jaison.
Natalie White (26) Van Buren, AR Pharmaceutical Sales
Probst’s Prognostication: If you look at Natalie you might think, pretty girl who doesn't want to break her nails. I don't know, Natalie might surprise some people.
Mick Trimming (33) Los Angeles, CA Doctor
Probst’s Prognostication: Mick's the kind of guy who could manipulate people and get them to do what he wants and then not realize that he doesn't care about them as much as he's pretending to.
Galu Tribe
Brett Clouser (23) Los Angeles, CA T-Shirt Designer
Probst’s Prognostication: A bit of a dark horse. He's kind of hanging back with a cheery smile.
Dave Ball (38) Los Angeles, CA Fitness Instructor
Probst’s Prognostication: Highest IQ, maybe of all time. His IQ was 140 and I'm pretty sure that's the highest we've ever had.
Erik Cardona (28) Ontario, CA Bartender
Probst’s Prognostication: I don't think that guy would ever think of giving up but I do think he will double-cross as soon as he has to.
John Fincher (25) Los Angeles, CA Rocket Scientist
Probst’s Prognostication: Is a poser. I think Fincher has been a guy that is so good looking that for so many years he's been given things.
Kelly Sharbaugh (25) Los Angeles, CA Hairstylist
Probst’s Prognostication: You can just look at her. She's got "caution" and "trouble" tattooed on her body.
Laura Morett (39) Salem, OR Office Manager
Probst’s Prognostication: Is one of my favorites. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that I think Laura could win this game.
Monica Padilla (25) San Diego, CA Law Student
Probst’s Prognostication: Is the type of woman that you look at and your angel inside of you says, "don't do it, trouble."
Russell Swan (42) Glenside, PA Attorney
Probst’s Prognostication: I don't think Russell is built for a game like this that requires so much deception.
Shannon Waters (45) Renton, WA Sales
Probst’s Prognostication: I like her mullet, fits her to a T. Girl rides a Harley, you can see her hair blowing in the wind.
Yasmin Giles (33) Los Angeles, CA Hairstylist
Probst’s Prognostication: Not really sure how she's gonna feel about going into the woods to go to the bathroom. I don't know about Yasmin.
Well, there they are. I sense that early on, Foa Foa, featuring evil Russell H. and deceitful Elizabeth, will be very amusing to watch. My preliminary pick to win it all is Erik. I would be interested to hear whom Fellow Survivor Geeks are picking to emerge as the sole Survivor. Leave your choice in the comment section. Until next time…from the booth.

Way too early to really have a take on this one yet but when you think of it, the office manager has a good shot. Office managers deal with egos and power hungry fools every day of the week. They continually pull their boss's assess off the fire by knowing exactly who to contact, what to say and when and they give up the credit to the big wigs. In Survivor, that could keep her just in the mix enough to really control things without drawing attention to herself. Might be a good tact to take!! I can't wait!!!
I know that it is way too early, but well thought out Mary. A vote for Laura. It will be fun to look back and see what Fellow Survivor Geeks think.
The preliminary votes are pouring in! Cathy, sister of FSG Liz, has told via facebook that she is going with Ashley. She bases her choice on the fact that Ashley is from the next suburb west of her in MN.
Keep your choices coming!
