Survivor 29 Cast Announced - Blood and Water II

http://tvline.com/2014/08/27/survivo...r-john-rocker/

The cast is out.

We're getting John Rocker, the politically incorrect major league baseball player, and his girlfriend this time around.

And, as an added bonus for fans of The Amazing Race, the Twinnies are back!

The return of exile island is a welcome diversion, especially when compared to redemption island.

The Twinnies are another matter...

The twins have to be in the running for the most annoying people on reality tv.

Count me as ignorant, but who are the "Twinnies"? I'm speculating a pair of annoying twins from some other show?

Multiple-time contestants on The Amazing Race. Annoying would be an understatement.

Re: Survivor 29 Cast Announced - Blood and Water II

So is it supposed to start on time or still maybe delayed?

Never heard of these twinnie characters before.

Oh no! I saw the twins' names and joked in my head that it's the twinnies. But it really is! FUUUUUUCK.

For those who don't know - these two are quite literally the most annoying people on the planet.

Re: Survivor 29 Cast Announced - Blood and Water II

Count me in as wanting RC back.

I do find the Twinnies annoying, but they were slighly less so the last tme around on the AR. One could hope they would be even less so when they need to work with other pairs on their tribe.

Rocker

Twinnies

They were less annoying the second time because they didn't last as long.

I skipped last season, but I'll definitely watch if Rocker is on.

Only because they were eliminated in the first episode.

Though, for the record, I did find them more annoying than ever in that episode.

Re: Survivor 29 Cast Announced - Blood and Water II

Why would they cast the twinnies? Doesn't casting know that they are disliked enough to make people change channels??? Ughhhh.

I noticed most of the pairs have something in common beyond the blood and water angle. A lot of them seem to have related occupations.

The other bad thing is that they're not in teams, so even after one gets voted off, the other could hang around a lot longer.

Twinnies? UGH! Couldn't they have gotten the blonde country music singers from TAR instead?

They should have just gotten Brendon and Rachel, giving them the CBS reality show trifecta.

The Twinnies were on The Amazing Race 2 times.

Yes, it will start on time. The editors who threatened to strike got their new union contract.

I'd much rather have Brenchel than the Twinnies on Survivor. They are on a very different level of annoying.

To be perfectly honest though, I really don't mind the Twinnies that much because it will be fun to watch them crash and burn again just like they did on their 2nd Amazing Race season.

Furthermore... "Survivor is supposed to be fun and good!"

I'd take Rachel crying every episode rather than the Twinnies.
