24 hours to go!

by

Are you ready? Are you excited? Caaaaan you feeeeeeeel the loooove tonight…

…sorry. It’s my Lion King moment. I’m done now. Honest. (Maybe!)

Here’s a couple of things before we can get started with the premiere party tomorrow night - have you joined the pool yet? Why not?! Click here and get your picks in for the first week before showtime tomorrow, so that you can get maximum pointage! You know you want too…

Secondly! Congrats to Erik and Jaime from Survivor: China! They announced recently that the friendship that started as part of the Zhan Hu tribe in China has blossomed into dating, as they told us at the finale, and then into romance and now? They’re engaged! They are currently living in Nashville, but Erik flew her home, convincing her that they were supposed to be part of a photoshoot in Charleston, NC, but ended up on one knee in the Battery to propose. AWww! He told Buddy TV that “A little over a year ago, I was convinced that I wouldn’t find anyone, then my life was turned upside down. I went to China on a reality show and found the girl of my dreams.”

We remember, of course, that there was a friendship but no showmance while on Survivor: China, all that developed afterwards, away from the prying eyes of the camera crews. Still, we here at Watching Survivor wish them all the best!

In more current news, Charlie - the marathon running gay lawyer for Survivor: Gabon, talked to The Advocate about the impending premiere, his job at the law firm, and about his friend Clay Aiken coming out of the closet at long last. (Really, was ANYONE surprised?!). It’s a great article, and Charlie sounds like the kinda guy we can route for! Check out the interview here!

Let the countdown continue! I’ll be here East Coast Time to live blog the premiere as always - I’ll be stumbling over names and trying to keep everyone straight (so to speak) and having a good time doing so! Join in the comment section, read and watch along, and be sure to let us know what you think of this new group of Survivors!
