'Survivor: Second Chance' Cast: Are Kelly, Ciera, Kass, Shirin & Others Locks To Win Fan Vote?
With the voting continuing for Survivor: Second Chance, many of the female players in the mix seem to be locks to get into the upcoming season.
Survivor fans are continuing to vote for their favorite players to come back for Survivor: Second Chance from the preselected pool of 32. With 16 people of each gender in the running, a total of 12 people will be eliminated (six men, six women) from each gender, leaving a cast of 20 to play the new season.
The female group has an interesting selection of players from the early days of Borneo, The Australian Outback and Africa to the most recent seasons of Cagayan, San Juan del Sur and Worlds Apart. Because nostalgia and recency bias are bound to be big factors in this vote, these are the five players Enstars believes are most likely to be selected for Survivor: Second Chance.
'Survivor' Host Jeff Probst Says Mike Has 'No Option' In The Game Anymore
-Kelly Wiglesworth
The only available option from the very first season of Survivor, nostalgia alone would make her a popular choice but her impressive Immunity run, compelling story arc with Sue Hawk and being the original runner-up should be more than enough reasons for fans to vote for her.
-Ciera Eastin
Ciera is the rare young female to make bold moves in the game. During Survivor: Blood vs. Water she voted out her own mother, Laura Morett. Two episodes later, she forced a tie and caused everyone to draw rocks for the first time in 23 seasons. She is also quite popular with fans so she should be in.
-Kass McQuillen
Love her or hate her (there's really no in between), Kass is good television and was a big part of what made Survivor: Cagayan such a great season. Her brash gameplay made her one of the most fascinating players in Survivor history. While she certainly has a fair share of haters among casual fans, it would be shocking to not see "Chaos Kass" in the top 10.
-Tasha Fox
Tasha has the benefit of coming from a very popular season (Cagayan) in addition to being one of the most likable candidates on the list. Her three Immunity wins in a row almost put her in the same category as Kelly in terms of dominating females and her "underdog" alliance with Spencer made most people root for them during the season. She is almost guaranteed to get in.
-Shirin Oskooi
While Shirin was not as popular in the first half of Survivor: Worlds Apart, her post-merge experience made her one of the more likable players of the season as a scrappy underdog. Her storyline in the season of being personally victimized will likely have many people thinking she deserves a second chance and the fact that she is on the most recent season will only help her.
