Millennials versus Gen X Using All Returning Players

Before the 33rd season of Survivor started, I did my version of a returning player season that pitted old and young against each other. But that wasn’t actually the point of the 33rd season. That was a battle of the generations. So, doing some research, I’ve decided to look up when certain players were born so I know what generation they are from. If they fit in either group, I will put them in this season. This will not including players from the original version of this season. While I could have included players from Panama and Nicaragua, I only have them mentioned as alternates as I didn’t think of someone worthy of the main cast. Now, let’s get to casting this season.

Millennial men- As usual, I’m putting a Guatemala contestant on this season. There was a contestant that season who ruled the game until he messed up at the very end. That man is Rafe. Going next to Samoa, I would pick Brett who dominated near the end only to fall short at the final immunity challenge. Picking a fan from Caramoan next, I would have to say that Reynold is a pretty likable guy and may be the best of the fans from that season. Hayden from Blood versus Water is my next pick as he is a great player, if not in challenge strength, than in his social game. Brice from Cagayan is my last pick as I feel that he has a lot of great potential in the game.

Millennial women- Eliza from Vanuatu and Micronesia is the first Millennial who I think played the game. I loved her as a player so I would love to see her return. Mikayla from South Pacific was not picked for Cambodia, which is one of the reasons that I am picking her for this season. That, and I hate the fact that her elimination was Brandon Hantz getting his way. RC from Philippines is someone who has been cut from seasons before, so I’m putting her on this one. Kelley from San Juan del Sur and Cambodia is a great player with more game left in her. Michele from Kaoh Rong is an underrated winner and I feel that she would be great to play again.

Millennial cast- Eliza (Vanuatu, Micronesia), Rafe (Guatemala), Brett (Samoa), Mikayla (South Pacific), RC (Philippines), Reynold (Caramoan), Hayden (Blood versus Water), Brice (Cagayan), Kelley (San Juan del Sur, Cambodia), Michele (Kaoh Rong)

Alternate Millennials- Candice (Cook Islands, Heroes versus Villains, Blood versus Water), Jason (Micronesia), Erik (Micronesia, Caramoan), Joe (Tocantins), Sierra (Tocantins), Natalie (Samoa), Chase (Nicaragua), Fabio (Nicaragua), Stephanie (Redemption Island), Matt (Redemption Island), Kim (One World), Malcolm (Philippines, Caramoan), Shamar (Caramoan), Eddie (Caramoan), Marissa (Blood versus Water), John (Blood versus Water), Katie (Blood versus Water), Ciera (Blood versus Water, Cambodia), Spencer (Cagayan, Cambodia), Nadiya (San Juan del Sur), Josh (San Juan del Sur), Reed (San Juan del Sur), Caleb (Kaoh Rong), Julia (Kaoh Rong)

Gen X men- An overlooked player from an earlier season is Clarence from Africa who I think should play again. John from Marquesas is someone who really should have already returned by now as his second chance has been a long time coming and hasn’t happened yet. Coby, the awesome shade thrower from Palau, has to return sometime to bring his some of his great ways again. Nate from Cook Islands is another player that I would pick. Marcus from Gabon is my last pick for the men on this tribe as he was a great player who made it all the way to the jury being immune the whole time before that, a feat that no one accomplished before and a select few have since.

Gen X women- Neleh is a player that I really liked when she first played in Marquesas and I’d love to see her play again. My next pick is Peih-Gee from China and Cambodia, a player I really like. Next, I’d be going with Natalie from Micronesia as she was a great player who may have been shadowed by some of the returnees she was playing against. Edna from South Pacific is a sweet person and player who really should return again at some point. My last pick would be Denise from Philippines.

Gen X cast- Clarence (Africa), John (Marquesas), Neleh (Marquesas), Coby (Palau), Nate (Cook Islands), Peih-Gee (China, Cambodia), Natalie (Micronesia), Marcus (Gabon), Edna (South Pacific), Denise (Philippines)

Alternate Gen X- Dirk (Borneo), Greg (Borneo), Brandon (Africa), Ethan (Africa, All-Stars), Gina (Marquesas), Penny (Thailand), Shawn (Pearl Islands), Sandra (Pearl Islands, Heroes versus Villains), Chris (Vanuatu), Gregg (Palau), Shane (Panama), Adam (Cook Islands), Mike (Redemption Island), Christine (South Pacific), Monica (One World, Blood versus Water), Dana (Philippines), Laura Boneham (Blood versus Water), Jeremy (Cagayan), Tasha (Cagayan, Cambodia), Kass (Cagayan, Cambodia), Tony (Cagayan), Max (Worlds Apart), Mike (Worlds Apart), Neal (Kaoh Rong), Debbie (Kaoh Rong)


Well, I put a lot of research into this blog post and hope that you like it. I know that this twist has some slight flaws as it only goes after two different generations and ignores everyone who is other than the oldest gen x player. But, I do hope that you like this post. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
