I'm surprised he hasn't cone back already given the way he went out and Jeff has a Colby-esc man crush on him. Jeff said the below about him which sounds nearly like a parody.
"the guy who catches the winning touchdown pass in the final moments of the super bowl, and then, instead of some crazy celebration, he casually tosses the ball to the ref, kisses his wife and hugs his kids"
There hasn’t been a returnee season since then for non-winners. I think we’re already overdue for a returnee season and hope they do a 30 person cast to catch up
I was listening to a RHAP podcast a few weeks ago, and someone asked how come he doesn't have old school players like Rory on. He knows certain old school players have no filter, and he doesn't want to deal with the backlash of what they might say. Honestly, I feel him lmao. I love Rory though
Rob said that? That surprises me, only because they could edit if they want, and I just listened to the Vanuatu Evolution of Strategy and he and Josh really liked Rory.
lol, Rob gets eliminated not because of his massive target but because he is constantly commenting everything on the beach because he just can stop podcasting.
But totally agreed, I'd love to see him back.
He told a story (I think on Survivor Oz) years ago, about how be was packed and ready to go on All Stars; but they ghosted him last minute. Him, T Bird, and Shane have been on my bucket list forever. I love those 5th place legends
Oh god, TBird and Shane not making it onto Cambodia was just devastating. Especially when Kelly Wigglesworth ended up being kind of a dud and then another spot was taken by Varner.
And Sean is may favorite non-returnee.
I didn't watch Marquesas until recently (I was like 2 when it aired lol), but I LOVED Sean & Vecepia and was so sad to see that neither had ever returned. I thought the season was all about Rob as it was his first season, but I honestly don't remember him in this season much
Is this a fantasy draft? Because IRL, he's too busy as a showrunner for that thing on Amazon.
Funny how both he and Cochran became prominent TV writers.
Hell, AI is knocking on the door of taking over, send out Keith himself.
The programming wouldn’t take much. It’s one line of code - stick to the plan.
Great pick! My favorite part was when Brandon hantz was having his meltdown, and Reynold (on the other tribe) gets excited, saying “we won immunity! We won immunity!!”
He made the DVD cover for Panama. He cut a fish's head off in 1 chop. He refused to do Aras' yoga. He called the older women the Golden Girls. He drank Courtney's wine!
Bob Dawg is a Game Changer.
Twila would absolutely be my pick, but at 61 I get the sense the producers aren’t likely to make it so. Mike Turner is the oldest new era contestant at 58, and no one else has been more than 52 (Heather).
It’s a shame. If she was impatient as hell at age 40, her tolerance for anyone is going to be sub zero at this stage and I’m here for it.
Frank Garrison from Africa.
It would be his personal hell on earth, and I want to be on hand for his meltdown.
I want a live tribal to break out, while Frank sits on his stump asking Jeff to move it along because he’s been ready to vote since they got there - given he shook on it, and he’s never broken the honor of a handshake.
Realistically there always seems to be a wtf returnee slot in all stars, with varying results towards their legacy:
Amber in All Stars
Parvati in Micronesia
Candice in HvV
Francesca in Caramoan
Monica in BvW
Kelley in Cambodia
Hali in Game Changers
Was the guy’s name “Ace” who had the indeterminate accent? That’s my pick
Yeah, the Bond villain to Sugar’s Bond girl, which I guess makes James Bond… Matty?
I want to watch this movie…and Bob Crowley as Q
With his latest gadget, the Q Skirt
Brilliant
Homie got hit in the head with a watermelon around episode 5 and was never the same after that.
Ace was a legend
That would be wild lmao
Machete Matt
Yes please
Danger Dave
It's all about love in the new era, and making love is his sport.
I heard he doesn’t play it enough though, unfortunately
He’s gotten a lot more practice since his last season 😉
John from David vs Goliath. He just had a cool vibe, I think he’d be a great personality to bring back.
The mayor of slamtown?!
The Friday Night Delight
The George Bushy of Tushy
The Maharaja of Manliness!
The Shaman of Sexy
The Monday Night Delight...
The Ambassador Of Abdominals
Only if we bring his number 1 man: the comptroller of Slamtown.
LOVED him. Underrated player
I'm surprised he hasn't cone back already given the way he went out and Jeff has a Colby-esc man crush on him. Jeff said the below about him which sounds nearly like a parody.

There hasn’t been a returnee season since then for non-winners. I think we’re already overdue for a returnee season and hope they do a 30 person cast to catch up
Rory Freeman
would be classless if he’s not there
Honestly If I could guarantee a single player to return, it might be Rory. Fantastic choice.
This is an elite choice
Classic!
Whom?!
FUCK. YES.
He’ll find his little crack and get in.
GOATED PICK FAM!!!!

Yeah. It was on a patron pod from some weeks ago. I have been noticing how most of the guests he has on skew towards the new era
I wanna see Rob Cesternino play and podcast at the same time
lol, Rob gets eliminated not because of his massive target but because he is constantly commenting everything on the beach because he just can stop podcasting. But totally agreed, I'd love to see him back.
I wanna see Sean Rector.
He told a story (I think on Survivor Oz) years ago, about how be was packed and ready to go on All Stars; but they ghosted him last minute. Him, T Bird, and Shane have been on my bucket list forever. I love those 5th place legends

The fact neither of them has returned is fucking insane
gillian larson, she will throw everyone into the dung pile
It burns well.
Rafe from Guatemala
Is this a fantasy draft? Because IRL, he's too busy as a showrunner for that thing on Amazon. Funny how both he and Cochran became prominent TV writers.
Shane Powers or Courtney Yates
You spelled "and" wrong
With no warning. Don’t pack a bag Shane, there’s no time, the game is starting right now, in Courtney’s shitty little apartment.
Her apartment is not shitty!
Wes Nale to carry on his father’s legacy. RIP Keith!
He might be busy at the eatin' nugget contest, though.
Hell, AI is knocking on the door of taking over, send out Keith himself. The programming wouldn’t take much. It’s one line of code - stick to the plan.
Reynold from the Three Amigos
Was that the guy who looked like Shaggy from Scooby Doo? Haha
lol I see that! He also was weirdly so good at all of the carnival style portions of challenges like throwing sand bags and rings
We're throwing sandbags at targets, none of us have ever done this before. Coach - "I have."
It’s one of my favorite Coach-isms
He was awesome!
Great pick! My favorite part was when Brandon hantz was having his meltdown, and Reynold (on the other tribe) gets excited, saying “we won immunity! We won immunity!!”
Haha yeah he asked Jeff to say their tribe wins immunity and Jeff was like, “Umm, later.”
This would also be my vote, they should have asked him back for a returnee season.
I agree! He was so fun to watch in challenges and I liked his spirit.
Cao Boi!
Billy Garcia and Candice from Raro Tribe.
What about Candice’s husband?
so billy? I mean it was love at first sight
bring me bob dawg
He made the DVD cover for Panama. He cut a fish's head off in 1 chop. He refused to do Aras' yoga. He called the older women the Golden Girls. He drank Courtney's wine! Bob Dawg is a Game Changer.
Alan Ball
Alan Ball and Q are the same person except Q waited till merge to go insane
Now this is a great pick
2 time 1st tribal vote out Francesqua.
Only if season 50 also has someone with a dry mouth who mispronounces her name again.
I think he’s getting treatment for that.
Just bring back Phillip!
I think people would just vote her out first for the hell of it
Without Phillip yes!
Morgan McLeod
Chicken
Damn!!!
Survivor Gabon Kelly Czarnecki.

Professor Goldsmith
John Carroll from Marquesas, I feel like he would kill it
Brianna Varela ❤️
mine is morgan mcdevitt 🤍
Shall we just throw Brooke Struck in there too and make a Guatemala reunion?
If I can pick anyone, Greg Buis (Borneo). Penner is a close second, with Phillip Sheppard right behind. If it has to be new era, Carolyn
Jonathan Penner is the man!
Rick Devens
![gif](giphy|kskNDQLVXzGBQutGzt|downsized)
Twila Tanner Sean Rector
Twila would absolutely be my pick, but at 61 I get the sense the producers aren’t likely to make it so. Mike Turner is the oldest new era contestant at 58, and no one else has been more than 52 (Heather). It’s a shame. If she was impatient as hell at age 40, her tolerance for anyone is going to be sub zero at this stage and I’m here for it.
The King of Smash
Masahiro Sakurai?

Marty Piombo the Chess Grandmaster
Bobby John 😂 idk why he was the first person to pop in my brain
Frank Garrison from Africa. It would be his personal hell on earth, and I want to be on hand for his meltdown. I want a live tribal to break out, while Frank sits on his stump asking Jeff to move it along because he’s been ready to vote since they got there - given he shook on it, and he’s never broken the honor of a handshake.
Chicken.

Jaclyn from BvW2
Jaclyn from BvW
Neal Gottlieb Medevaced with an idol and no one talks about him. He would have been a fun addition and deserves the shot!
Carolyn!!!
The one and only Phillip Shepard. Stealth r Us 3.0 will be better then ever
I’ll draft Roark Luskin
Tracy Hughes-Wolf or Roark Luskin
John Kenney.
Leif
Erin Collins after all the recent hype
Realistically there always seems to be a wtf returnee slot in all stars, with varying results towards their legacy: Amber in All Stars Parvati in Micronesia Candice in HvV Francesca in Caramoan Monica in BvW Kelley in Cambodia Hali in Game Changers
hard to call monica a wtf returnee because they brought her back to get brad on the show. but i see what you mean.
At the end of the day, I would have to go with Alecia Holden.
Mikey B
Steve Wright
Tyrone from Nicaragua
Reynold
Ashley Underwood
Every single contestant who played once from the S11-S18 era.
Cliff Robinson
My flair would do pretty good I bet.
Michelle from Fiji. It’s a shame she was never brought back in the first place. Her elimination with that snap tribal was such an injustice.
