| They're Back! (Season premiere) | From Pulau Tiga to the Pearl Islands, the most memorable players from the show's first seven editions compete for $1 million and bragging rights as the ultimate Survivor. The 18 castaways (two more than usual) are divided into three tribes instead of two: Chapera; Saboga; and Mogo Mogo, named for islands off the coast of Panama where the latest game takes place. The contestants include four former winners (Richard Hatch, Tina Wesson, Ethan Zohn, Jenna Morasca) and one runner-up (Colby Donaldson). At 76, Rudy Boesch is the oldest competitor and a shoo-in sentimental favorite. The Chapera Tribe (team color is red) is the only group without a champ. Its members are Amber Brkich, Tom Buchanan, Alicia Calaway, Rob Cesternino, Susan Hawk and Rob Mariano. The Saboga Tribe (team color is yellow) features victors Tina (Australia) and Ethan (Africa), in addition to Rudy, Pearl Islands fan favorite Rupert Boneham, Jenna Lewis and Jerri Manthey. The Mogo Mogo Tribe (team color is green) is headlined by original top guru Richard (Pulau Tiga) and Amazon queen Jenna. They are joined by Colby, Shii Ann Huang, Lex van den Berghe and Kathy Vavrick-O'Brien. | Tina of Saboga from Survivor 2: The Australian Outback
