The returnees don't really standout for me. Russell is okay, rather bad in comparison to the rest of the cast IMO but idk, I rather like Michael actually, the other one I don't really know anything about yet.
Let's focus on the losing tribe :
I really want to like Roxy & Angie, but they both flop, I googled it. So... I guess that's not tragic.
Malcolm is pretty chill and likable.
Rip Zane, his onion speech was truly inspiring.
Denise seems really great, but I'm not 100% yet, they focused more on Zane and Russell.
Russell is the only person in the most indifferent with, and I don't even dislike him that much, just in comparison.
Obviously, Abi-Maria is a Queen. Even if I didn't know how big of an icon she was in retrospect, her accent alone makes her a standout. Love. She's not my #1 (yet) but she's such a Queen.
Lisa is an early favorite for me. She's a sweetheart. I know she does well, so whether I continue liking her is the issue.
R.C is rather Queen-like ATM.
R.C, Pete and Abi could be a Holy Trinity, but since Lisa makes it far, I'm guessing Michael goes with her??? Idk. Either way I like everyone on this tribe.
Artis, who? I guess he's the weakest link on this tribe ATM.
6 - Artis
5 - Pete
4 - Michael
3 - R.C
2 - Abi
1 - Lisa
Now onto the third one...
They didn't focus on this one besides that guy (was it Jonathan?) looking for the idol.
They showed Jeff once, I think and definitely Dana at the start.
Overall, even this tribe is strong.
6 - Carter - 99% I've never even seen him.
5 - Sarah
4 - Katie
3 - Jonathan
2 - Jeff
1 - Dana
Am I just non-observant???!

Carter is the most bland, dull, and unnoticable person in all of Survivor history.
And I love him for it.
Jonathan Penner is one of my all-time favorite players, but I'm unsure how you'll feel towards him.
