I am tempted to make a potential cast but I don't want to give them any more ideas. I think regardless of who we like or hate we can agree that a good cast needs balance, not too many superfans, not too many recruits, not too many gamebots, not too many dumb jocks, etc.

I think it mostly depends on who Jeff likes and who production thinks the fans like, and by fans I mean casuals, not people who actually understand the game, and understand what kind of characters a TV show like "Survivor" needs. This is why we got Russell Hantz three times, this is why we got Aubry and Zeke to return so quickly. This is also why we never got Shane back. This is why we would probably never see the likes of Bobby Mason or Dave Ball back on the show. And this is a shame. Fortunately, Shambo, another character who was shoved down our throats, stated she was not interested in playing another time. To be fair, Survivor gets millions of viewers. Without the "casuals" Survivor would've been canceled for low viewership already. All major network shows have to cater to get as large an audience they can so they can continue airing. Also, people shouldn't have to be doing their homework to watch a show they like to watch. If people are just going to watch the show weekly, there's no issue in them just watching the show.
