Who's Who on "Survivor II"

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread

CBS has announced its 16 new contestants for Survivor: The Australian Outback. The newest batch includes a 28-year-old aspiring production assistant (who moonlights as a bartender), a woman who works as a correctional officer at a men's prison, a 30-year-old aspiring actress (who moonlights as a bartender) and a hunkish Internet project manager who, if you squint a little bit, kind of looks like Survivor host Jeff Probst. With CBS' media embargo now lifted, the publicity machine is in full gear for the network leading up to the Survivor sequel's January 28 premiere, immediately following the Super Bowl. Like the first time, the contestants were split into two tribes--this time named Kucha (Aboriginal name for kangaroo) and Ogakor (meaning crocodile). Here's a quick rundown of who's who (full biographies and headshots are available at CBS' official Website): RODGER BINGHAM, 53, teacher/farmer from Crittenden, Kentucky (Kucha)
AMBER BRKICH, 22, administrative assistant from Beaver, Pennsylvania (Ogakor)
NICK BROWN, 23, Harvard law student from San Francisco (Kucha)
