They're coming.... The 26th (!) season of Survivor is set to premiere on Feb. 13, which, for the great unwashed, also happens to be my birthday. And it looks like my gift this year comes in the form of a few more months of Malcolm Freberg. (How'd y'all know?!) Yes, the folks at CBS released the cast of Survivor: Caramoan - Fans vs. Favorites today. In addition to everyone's favorite older-than-his-years, dreamy bartender from last season, we're also getting treated to such "favorites" as: Andrea Boehlke. Andrea was

EDITOR'S NOTE: Here's the link to the video, which is definitely worth a watch. Aside from his ability to boot the ball through the uprights from almost kind of angle or distance, Havard Rugland is a complete stranger to the American version of football. And yet the 28-year-old Norwegian, without having played a single game at any level of the sport, is suddenly pursuing a shot at making it to the NFL. And it’s all because of a YouTube video. Sound incredible? Well, so are

The good thing about having four likeable folks in the final four (and, subsequently, the final three) is that you're assured that someone non-nauseating is going to win $1 million. The bad part is that it makes for a really boring final episode. Malcolm, Denise, Mike (sorry, I mean Skoopin) and Lisa are charming even when they're turning on each other and stabbing each other in the back, which is impressive. but still. Thankfully, we had a jury that included Jeff Kent, Abi and Jonathan

Stay classy! By Kerri Fleming Now, I don't know much about anything and I certainly don't know much about Survivor. I'm the reality show equivalent of a sports talk radio caller. The armchair quarterback. The backseat driver. But I'm going to go out on a limb and take the stance that calling someone an "idiot" and a "moron" (twice) is probably not the best way to get someone on your side.

The team that laughs while chopping raw meat together stays together. By Kerri Fleming Today is a day for upsets and underdogs. Somehow, the team that has been as close to last for the entirety of the Amazing Race, who hadn't won a leg for the whole season, who found themselves half a day behind other teams not once but TWICE thanks to horrible airport experiences, who had to take a penalty when one member's diving form looked more like a corgi flop, who had the other
