I finally got around to watching the 1st episode of this season. I do remember the faces of the 4(?) returning players, but couldn't tell you what they did in their seasons and who their tribe mates were. So far, in the 1st episode, I remember 2 names...Wendy, the girl with Tourette's, and Reem, the older lady who got booted to "exile island", which I think got renamed to the "edge of extinction". The best way in the beginning to stay in the game is to fly under the radar.
