It's official, everybody; Survivor: Cagayan will be premiering on Wednesday, February 26th with a 2 hour premiere episode! You can read CBS's announcement in it's entirety here.
So what does this mean? Well, sadly, it's likely that we won't get to see the full cast reveal until about a month beforehand, so we still have 2 weeks to go. I'm hoping they'll release it sooner, but I doubt it.
A lot of people on Survivor Sucks today were speculating that the 2 hour premiere will be simply episodes 1 and 2 of Cagayan back to back, like CBS did with Gabon. While it would certainly be exciting to see a bunch of challenges and tribal councils all at once, I think I'd prefer getting 2 hours to see more interaction and character development, but it's unlikely. Who knows, though. Heroes vs Villains was 2 hours and just one tribal.
Also of note, the Amazing Race premiere date (Feb. 23) was announced at the same time. I also plan to cover TAR 24 on this blog, but to a lesser extent than Survivor. If you're interested, I'll probably do an analysis of the list of all star teams competing this season, which can be found in a multitude of places, including Reality Blurred.
Actually, that could be fun to do. If I get a chance later tonight, I'll talk about TAR 24 or start getting into the Top 10 of my all time Survivor players list. Either way, stay tuned!
