According to what I've seen--he will be .

If you search, you can easily find the alleged 10 "Favorites" for the next season. No word on the "Fans" yet though...

[DaffyKD]

Supposedly these are the returning favorites. Yes, Malcolm is returning. Since when did Brandon Hantz become a favorite?

Favorite and notorious appear to be the same for Survivor.

I don't understand their comments about Abi being a villain. To me, you have to be purposefully mean/vindictive/manipulative/etc to be a villain. She's* just a bitch.

*Not sure if this is present or past tense here. I was surprised to hear her say that she learned a lot from the experience and needs to re-evaluate herself & her emotions. While it (kind of) makes for good TV, I hope she really does take this as a life lesson and learn to add a filter to that mouth of hers.

Oh Lord! Brandon Hantz and Phillip Shepherd again?

They have a very different understanding of favorite from mine.

Yay for Denise! I'm happy she won. I wish they would've shown the breakdown of votes - I always like to see how everyone voted. Thanks to wiki though for filling in those gaps.

I was somewhat surprised to see Lisa win the fan favorite. I really thought Malcolm would've had that in the bag.

As for the upcoming season/cast... geez.

[Cheerio]

Denise winning a fun surprise.

If spoilers correct on #26, will enjoy seeing Ice Cream Kid from Michigan--but he'll be a Fav this time.

EW: Let’s talk about Penner outing your past on The Facts of Life just moments before everyone went up to vote. Did that hit you like a bombshell? People’s minds were probably already made up before then, but you’re sitting there fighting for your life and then he comes out and does that.

I should have been expecting it, and I don’t know why I wasn’t. But I was actually shocked when he came out with that. So it absolutely threw me back. I think you’re right, I don’t think it affected the outcome. I’m not saying he didn’t affect the outcome, but he had already affected it at Ponderosa with the many speeches I’m sure he gave there which were just as bitter. But at that moment, I wasn’t prepared for him to out me. Now, stepping back as performer and a lover of the show Survivor, it was absolutely what was needed to bring resolve to that question: Did they recognize you? Who didn’t recognize you? Why didn’t they recognize you? So as far as good storytelling, I think it was an important part of the last chapter.

EW: Well, he was certainly performing and it was a great performance, but it did feel below the belt. I wouldn’t have had a problem if Skupin or Denise had done it since they were still fighting for the money, even though I’m not sure how well it would have reflected on them to bring it up at that point. I could see why someone competing for a million dollars would bring it up. Penner, not so much.

I think he was still fighting to prove the point to Michael and me that when he said “If you vote me out, there is no way you will win the million dollars.” So he was pulling out all stops — not so that his favorite person, Denise, would win. But so that his favorite person, Penner, would ultimately be right.

BTW, apparently next season will be another Fans vs. Favorites.

Ah, thanks for that. Sounds like Lisa was accepting and dealing with how he outed her graciously. But I like her, so maybe I'm just biased.

You can tell from the show. We saw RC vote for Lisa and Carson vote for Skupin. Everyone else voted for Denise. If anyone else had voted for Lisa or Skupin, Propst would have read that vote to highten the suspense for just a few seconds longer. ("That's two votes Lisa, two votes Denise.")

Agreed. I don't recall particularly liking any of them on that list.

I'm happy to see Malcolm, Cochrane and Dawn. Maybe a few others.

[CutiePie2000]

I'd love to see Colton come back, but maybe they're saving him for the next iteration of Heroes vs. Villains.

[AnchorAlum]

I was actually favorably surprised to see Cochran on that list.

As far as Penner and the way he behaved at the final TC, it was about as low as he could go. Lisa was so gracious about it - I wonder if Jeff Kent, who certainly had his share of celebrity had been one of the final three - would have been "outed" similarly if he'd been discovered.

It is really petty and disappointing of Penner to do what he did - did anyone notice at the reunion show he had done some "work" on himself - no gray hair, little tanning, a peel or two? Didn't help, Penner!

How could we not? That dye job was atrocious and SO OBV.

No kidding. Heck, give Ozzy chance #257744 rather than these guys.
