Survivor players reveal the folks they are surprised to see as Game Changers

Survivor type TV Show network CBS genre Reality Where to watch Close Streaming Options

Once the cast for Survivor: Game Changers (premiering March 8 on CBS) was released, the debate among fans immediately began as to which players actually deserved the title of Game Changer. Some names obviously fit. Others, maybe not so much. But that’s the fun of being a fan — debating back and forth as to who deserves to be there and who doesn’t.

However, what do the players themselves think? We asked all 20 contestants to name whom they were surprised to see out there on the island for a Game Changers season, and while a few were diplomatic with their answers, most did not hold back.

Check out the video above to get the straight scoop from the cast in terms of the folks they believe may be less than worthy to return, and for more Survivor scoop, follow me on Twitter @DaltonRoss.
