Survivor Gabon TV Guide Preview
Jeff Probst's Take on the Survivors

Ace
He's got this kind of Bond, James Bond sort of thing about him. The question is, can he back it up. I don't think Ace knows any other way to play, other than full speed so I assume he is going to come out and take over.

Charlie
I think Charlie is really sharp, wouldn't surprise me for him to be part of a very really good alliance and be keeping tabs at all times and betray some people when he needs to. I look for Charlie to go deep.

Crystal
If she gives up the goods too early, she will be going home. She is just a threat physically, she is going to have to play a really sophisticated game but I think she is up for it.

Gillian
As likeable as she is, Survivor is about getting rid of people and she'll give them a reason to get rid of her because she is older and it's not fair, but it is how it goes.

Jacque
I think Jacque is probably going to play a really smart game and she is the type of person that if you let her get deep, she could be a real threat.

Kelly
Kelly, bless her heart, Kelly is our hot chick of the season, and she loves being the hot girl. She's ready to be hot whenever you need her to be, and that's kind of hot.

Ken
Ken is a guy that when our casting director brought him to the casting room, I literally put my hand on his forehead and said, do you have a temperature? And he grew on me, and grew on me, to the point where he is one of my favorites. I love this kid.

Matty
I would definitely keep Matty in my alliance. He's athletic, and he's not going to do me any harm. I don't think he's going to betray me so I think I would take Matty to the end. If Matty is pulling the wool, Matty could win.

Randy
Randy is our favorite, we never had anybody like Randy. If he can figure out social dynamics, they better back up a little bit, Randy could be around for awhile, and I hope he is, we need him.

Robert
What I like about Bob is that he has been a high school teacher for 20 years and we have a lot of kids who are not that far removed from high school.

Neutral

Corinne
Corinne is the bitch of the season, really, and that can be an affectionate term. I think Corinne likes that label, she seems to wear it pretty well.

Danny
Danny who has adopted the nickname GC because we have another guy named Dan is a fence sitter for me. I'm not sure.

Susie
I think Susie is going to have to choose the right alliance if she is going to last.

Negative

Dan
He appears to be a bright guy, he appears to have it all figured out, but then I listen to him, and then I think, I don't know if he does.

Jessica
If she has somebody she can go to, I think she is a reliable vote and she can go you know maybe to the jury, but she won't make it deep, she won't make it to the end.

Marcus
Obviously very smart but I am not sure that he has it in him to play this game the way you need to play. Marcus won't win.

Michelle
It seems to me that Michelle is the type of person who's used to having people bring her into a group, hey Michelle, come hang with us. That doesn't work on Survivor. As much as I want to see her last, it doesn't look very good for her.

Paloma
I see her out here on the show, and I start to feel like she is withering away and that is a sign of somebody who is going to fade.

Based on Jeff Probst's comments (which we have known historically, have not been accurate), the Survivors are projected to finish:

Late Game: Ace, Charlie, Jacque, Matty

Early Boot: Gillian, Paloma, Susie, Michelle

Not Going to Win: Jessica, Marcus

Unknown: Corinne, Crystal, Dan, Danny, Kelly, Ken, Randy, Robert
