On Friday the network announced the 20 castaways who will be marooned on the Rock Islands of Palau on the show's 16th installment.
"Survivor" host Jeff Probst visited The Early Show on Feb. 7, 2008 to discuss the Micronesia edition. To see the video, click here.
The favorites have the advantage of having played the game before, but they may be vulnerable because the fans know their strategies from having watched the show. The favorites, on the other hand, know very little about the fans.

- This time next year will we still have all of these "reality" shows. When is this craze/fad going to end. I''''m sick of them. I thought "Survivor" was cancelled. It''''s the same show every season. They just change the locale. Who is still watching it?
Enough with the reality shows.
