edjr 6,593 Posted January 29, 2013 http://www.cbs.com/shows/survivor/cast Malcom is back so is Brandon Hantz When Survivor returns next month with its 26th season (amazing, right?), Malcolm Freberg, one of the 10 veteran castaways on the Favorites tribe, will begin the game without much rest. That’s because filming on Survivor: Caramoan — Fans Vs. Favorites began just a few weeks after production wrapped on Survivor: Philippines, which Malcolm finished in fourth place on. Recognizing he was an extremely competitive contestant, it didn’t take long for host Jeff Probst to decide that Malcolm should return to play the game again. Not long at all…. Probst revealed to EW.com’s Dalton Ross that Malcolm became a realistic candidate for Survivor: Caramoan — Fans Vs. Favorites around day 20 of Survivor: Philippines because production felt like he was a star. “When he was voted out, I think it was maybe, no exaggeration, maybe three minutes after he was voted out when I went to him after his torch had been snuffed and said, ‘Sooooo….’ And he goes, ‘You want me to play again.’” Probst explained in the EW.com interview. “I said, ‘Wow, how did you know?’ and he goes, ‘I can tell. I know. I get it. I should play again. And I’m ready. I don’t even need to go home. I’m good to go.’ He knew!” Since Survivor: Philippines didn’t air until after production on Survivor: Caramoan — Fans Vs. Favorites was finished, Malcolm, like Russell Hantz on Survivor: Heroes Vs. Villains, is the only veteran castaway the other players on season 26 had no knowledge of. Probst also explains in the EW.com interview that the Caramoan cast was told very little about Malcolm other than “we think he’s a favorite, so read into that whatever you want.” How will Malcolm fare as one of the “Favorites” when he’s up against nine other veteran castaways and 10 newbies? We will find out soon enough. Survivor: Caramoan — Fans Vs. Favorites begins with a massive two-hour premiere on Wednesday, Feb. 13. Do you think Malcolm deserved to be brought back to the game again? Of the returning players, who are you most surprised to see? Who is your favorite of the “Fans” tribe?

Frozenbeernuts 2,264 Posted February 13, 2013 Go fock a couch. Not as bad as it sounds homie. If you name it a girly name there really isn't much difference sometimes. Speaking of target advertising, I am getting ads for welding hoods all of a sudden. Coincidence? It's nice that any company that wants access to my interweb tendencies has free range.

gocolts 300 Posted February 14, 2013 Would love to see that tool Malcom from last season get voted out right off the bat. The should have brought back the ghey guy from like 2 seasons ago. Can't remember his name, but he had to medevaced out I think. Everyone wanted the idol he found and he kept even though he couldn't use. lol That Brandon dude was a focking complete dumbass. Should make for some drama and possibly hilarity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still wish they would have given us Willie Hantz from Big Brother. He had the potential to be the best one yet. Edit: My bad... I could have sworn that the kid (fock, what was his name?) you were referring to was going to be on. I guess I had him confused with Cochran. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're a regular poster on an internet forum, you probably shouldn't bother commenting on others' sad lives. It tends to ring a little hollow. It's a tip.

parrot 789 Posted February 14, 2013 Loved little Hantz once again immediately going after the hottest girl to be put out first. Like everyone doesn't know by now that when he says things like "She's just too smart." it's code for "I CAN'T CONTROL MY LUSTFUL URGES!!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldMaid 2,130 Posted February 14, 2013 Good God! I'd forgotten how hard it is to look at Cohcran. A sweater vest and boxer briefs.... really? I still hate the little Hantz runt. I think he may be a product of inbreeding. He needs to go ASAP. Phillip is still crazy ( like a fox) and he showed up in his tightie pinkies! I give it about 2 weeks before those things are so dangerously, saggy, that we almost see his ball sack. No one stands out right now from the Fan tribe, so I think I will be forced to root for Malcolm again this season. But it's still early... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They kinda made him look like a worthless lazy fock when they were building the shelter-but he did kind of redeem himself with the fire. So... I'm on the fence with him. What's wrong with Malcolm?

Yeah, he was looking bad at first till he made fire. Malcom is everyone's favorite and I usually hate the good guy. He seems like an alright dude though.
