“Survivor 48 ”solid members reveal daring predictions for the season

An incredible Survivor participant has to plan forward. That includes seeing into the long run to foretell what is going to occur round each nook. With that in thoughts, we traveled all the best way to Fiji to ask the cast of Survivor 48 simply days earlier than the sport to make some daring predictions for what was about to go down. (I imply, that’s not the one motive we traveled on the market. We requested them different stuff, too.)

Who felt a weird problem interruption was certain to happen? Who was channeling a dwell reunion? And who sensed extra Applebee’s tears have been on the horizon? Learn on for the whole group of predictions from our solid of beginner Nostradamuses, after which watch the Survivor 48 season premiere on Feb. 26 to start discovering out who was proper.

Eva Erickson

I predict {that a} goat goes to return and interrupt one of many challenges. It's been interrupting. It interrupted my interview up there, and there was a goat that was close to our tent that we may see. So I feel that there's randomly going to be a goat that's going to return working by means of a problem and we're all going to cease and be like, “What is occurring?” It'd be the goat problem.

The Survivor 48 cast's most unique traits revealed

Cedrek McFadden

I'm going to say that there's going to be a dwell finale on the finish of the season. In fact, they haven't advised us something like that, however we shall be in ultimate Tribal and Jeff [Probst] will say, “I'll reveal the votes” after which we return. I feel there's been lots of people speaking about it. I luckily was in a position to attend a dwell finale for season 25, the Philippines, and it was only a wild expertise. And so I'm simply going to place it on the market. They're going to do a dwell finale.

I maintain considering in the event that they don't do it now, will they do it [for season] 50? I don't know what 50 appears like. I'm certain folks have realized, “Wow, look how a lot cash we saved by not doing it,” however even the aspect of your loved ones having the ability to expertise it for themselves in that capability — it actually ought to come again.

Bianca Roses

My daring prediction is that the consuming contest is coming again. I really feel this fashion as a result of it's been in my intestine that I might crush this sort of problem. I'm Italian. I'm a human rubbish disposal. I'll eat something that comes into my mouth. So I've been fascinated by this lots, that if they carry again the consuming problem, I'm going to crush it. I do know they only introduced again the public sale, and I've simply discovered with so many issues is that what I take into consideration lots does come true. So this has simply been one of many issues on the forefront of my thoughts.

David Kinne

Alright, daring prediction. The final season I really watched was Heroes vs. Villains, and it was numerous bodily, brutal video games that paired folks off. And I'm this group and I feel there's numerous athletes right here, so it sort of makes me assume they did that on goal. And so my prediction is that they're going to deliver again a problem that really pairs up one-on-one in circumstances resembling Heroes vs. Villains.

Kamilla Karthigesu

I feel there's going to be a two-way tie at ultimate three, and the third-place finalist goes to need to vote and break that tie. And the explanation I feel that’s Jeff gave us a pleasant little pep discuss, and a part of that pep discuss was coming again for 50, which I'm certain everybody right here has that at the back of their thoughts. But in addition, he had talked about, “We picked you all as a result of we all know you're not the kind of folks to reward goats who go to the top.” And so I feel everybody has that of their thoughts they usually don't need to be a goat that makes it to the top. Everybody desires to have some kind of transfer or some kind of technique that they will personal and articulate at ultimate Tribal Council. So I feel it might be a detailed ultimate Tribal and I hope it’s… except I'm one of many folks. Then it's like 9 to zero, me.

Meet the cast of Survivor 48

Justin Pioppi

I feel that individuals are going to play benefits early and sometimes, as a result of all of us simply noticed 46, and we noticed everybody sort of held it to the very finish and didn't assume they wanted it, after which subsequent factor you understand, your torch bought snuffed. So I feel that individuals are going to be idol completely satisfied. I feel individuals are going to be benefit completely satisfied. I feel even if you happen to don't want it, you're going to make use of it and also you're going to burn it, simply because I can really feel somewhat little bit of abdomen paranoia, to be sincere with you.

So I feel that's going to be the important thing this season, and the way do you mess around that? Do we have to possibly cut up votes, or do we have to discuss amongst one another and attempt to reassure any individual, despite the fact that we noticed final season how that labored? I imply, the truth that occurred 4 weeks in a row, it was bonkers. And my mom advised me, she goes, “When you ever get out on that island, play your idol it doesn’t matter what.”

Mary Zheng

My daring prediction is that they're going to eliminate the Sweat vs. Savvy challenges, as a result of they've been doing them for a couple of occasions and if there's something we all know in regards to the new period, it's that they prefer to maintain us on our toes.

Kevin Leung

My daring prediction for season 48 is that there’ll really not be any idols at first. There’ll really be clues, and the clues will stay nameless till post-merge. So everybody will assume that everybody has an idol, however in actuality nobody does. The explanation I say that’s as a result of there's a lot psychology that goes behind it. It’s 48 now, we simply completed 46 , and our season watched the whole factor of 46. We noticed nobody use any idols, that means that everybody, I'm assuming, on 48 goes to make use of their idols as quick as doable. If I used to be manufacturing and I knew that, I might reverse meta the meta and say “Okay, let's put simply clues or pretend idols on the seaside and get a lot paranoia that everybody assumes that ‘Oh, man, she or he's going to make use of his idol instantly.’”

Sai Hughley

I’ve a sense that they're going to deliver again from the season of Malcolm and Denise the place they hid the idol beneath the lid of the rice container. That scares me somewhat bit as a result of I don't assume folks shall be wanting like that as a result of one, we don't get rice supplied. So the place would they put it precisely? Beneath our construction after we've already constructed it? And who's going to be on the lookout for that? I'm going to be wanting within the tree. In the meantime, I'm actually sleeping over prime of it.

In order that might be scary for me. And likewise, they nonetheless do that, however voting two folks out directly the place solely one in all them makes the jury. I completely hate that since you fought this difficult and also you assume you're making the merge and also you assume you're protected. After which Jeff is like, “Nah, that's really not taking place. You're going residence empty handed.” I nonetheless need to win all of it, however I'd be okay if at the least it’s the merge. As a substitute, it's like, “Bye!”

Shauhin Davari

I feel any individual goes to cry about Applebee's once more. If now we have Applebee's, any individual's crying over Applebee's. Applebee's is getting their cash's value, bro. Jesus, greatest sponsorship ever! What must occur is Google must sponsor, and one of many rewards must be, “You will have the power to Google three issues proper now.” That will be superior. Google AI assistant. I'm telling you, Jeff. I bought this for you.

Star Toomey

I've sort of been fascinated by it, they usually may really deliver again Fringe of Extinction. Will my season be an Fringe of Extinction season? As a result of that was a fairly dope season. You get kicked off, however you don't go away. It’s important to combat to get your approach again. Why wouldn't they carry it again? That's one thing that's going to be good TV. So if I needed to predict, I feel they're bringing it again Fringe of Extinction for season 48.

Thomas Krottinger

My daring prediction — and it's as a result of it's the factor that I concern essentially the most, so I'm simply bracing myself for [it] — is Exile Island. And never similar to seasons 41 and 42. I'm speaking Exile Island is again and it's each week and it's taking place on a regular basis. And I really feel like I'm going to get so f—ed. That’s my prediction as a result of it's my biggest concern. So it's going to occur.

Charity Nelms

I feel there are a couple of characters right here which are going to attempt to monopolize the digital camera time and make the large strikes, however that there are some quieter extra low-key those who I feel they're really going to shine over these which are actually attempting to make large strikes and do an excessive amount of. There’s such a superb steadiness between swinging for the fences and doing an excessive amount of, and that may put a goal in your again. There are a pair folks I take note of that I feel are going to be these sleepers.

Joe Hunter

A daring prediction for me could be that I feel there may be going to be a bigger variety of gamers than prior to now, and I feel the dynamic of every tribe shall be not like we've ever seen. Whether or not it’s the steadiness of male–feminine kind factor, whether or not it’s the steadiness of numbers — that may set the tone for each problem to be totally different than it's ever been earlier than as nicely.

Chrissy Sarnowsky

I don't assume there's going to be a showmance. I've been all people and it doesn't appear like that's going to occur. And I feel I'm going to be within the ultimate three, however that's simply me hoping and wishing and praying. In any other case, who is aware of what the f—'s going to occur.

Kyle Fraser

There's going to be a tie on the ultimate Tribal, and it’s because I shall be within the ultimate Tribal, and I do assume that I'm going to be on the ultimate Tribal with one different individual that I belief, or at the least have labored with carefully on this recreation to the purpose the place the jury could have hassle differentiating our video games. And I'm okay with that. My mantra is, folks first. Not that I'm going to place folks forward of me; I'm right here to win the million bucks. However I don't assume you’ll be able to play this recreation if you happen to don't have any individual that you simply belief.

You have a look at the best way the previous couple of seasons have gone, there have been teams of people that have trusted each other all through virtually everything of the sport. And also you see gamers who’re strategic, who’ve all the fitting instruments, however they only attempt to exit the gate and be strategic they usually neglect that you simply're enjoying with folks. And that's one thing that I cannot and can’t neglect. I want to have the ability to construct belief, construct connections, construct that basis, after which we exit and play. And due to that, I need to discover some individuals who I can belief and play this recreation with and I’ll go to the top with.

Stephanie Berger

So, I'm in 48, we've all simply seen 46 the place we watched 4 folks go residence with idols of their pocket back-to-back-to-back-to-back. And 46 is a improbable season and that was actually enjoyable to look at. And I do know as a result of I watch Survivor largely in a bar at a queer watch get together and we’re like cheering each time any individual goes out with an idol of their pocket, it’s electrical in there. I can't think about although that manufacturing's not going to take motion to ensure that idols are used extra.

And I’ll make the daring prediction that I don't assume 4 individuals are going to exit back-to-back. The place are the Vegas odds on that? Actually you’ll be able to't purchase them. I don't assume 4 individuals are going to exit back-to-back and I feel we're going to see much more idol performs than we did in 46. Individuals are going to be set off f—ing completely satisfied on their idol performs they usually're going to be actually desperate to get them off.

And I’ll say, personally, I’ve no real interest in enjoying an idol besides in an unconventional method. I feel the times of enjoying idols since you assume the votes are going to be on you or with a cut up vote or no matter are over. Since you do it and you then're simply voted out subsequent. Ostensibly, it's the identical factor as going to rocks at this level. It's burning the votes. That's it. So that you've bought to seek out artistic, new, thrilling methods to play idols. We would additionally see some kind of a novel idol, like an idol that must be performed throughout the subsequent two tribes, one thing like that. Manufacturing appears tremendous thrilled with 46 and it was a improbable season, however I don't assume they need folks sitting round anymore. They need us taking motion. I'm undecided it's an excellent daring name, however it's one which I might put cash on.

Mitch Guerra

I feel this'll be the primary time in a very long time that there are three guys sitting on the ultimate Survivor Tribal Council. And I shall be one in all them.
