SURVIVOR: Heroes vs. Villains Cast

SURVIVOR: HEROES VS. VILLAINS, which premieres tonight at 8/7c on CBS, will reunite some of the most memorable, heroic and controversial castaways from previous SURVIVOR seasons. The series’ best strategists will face off in their attempt to overcome — or embrace — the label placed upon them when they return to seek revenge or redemption, all in an effort to win the title of Sole Survivor.

I’ve never been much of a SURVIVOR gal. It has much more to do with the time slot than my perception of the show. But I’ll be honest, I really want to watch this season. I’m just not sure how that’s going to be possible. I could save it for viewing on the weekend but I know I’m going to be really bummed out to get into a reality show only to be inevitably (and justifiably) spoiled every week. What to do…what to do.

I’ll try my best to watch, and although we might not be able to cover SURVIVOR on the site, perhaps we can make it a weekly podcast discussion.

Are you excited for the new season to start tonight? Check out the cast. Who will YOU be rooting for? (I’m a Boston Rob girl all the way.)
