Survivor Panama, Exile Island starts tonight!

Same location (Panama was the location for Survivor Pearl Islands and Survivor All Stars),

Same host (Jiffy Probst signed a new 4 year deal when the plans for this season were announced)

But a whole new game!

This new season of Survivor starts a few new things, the biggest being Exile Island. Each week one Survivor is going to be banished to an island all by themselves, no fire, no supplies, no food. They will have to stay on the island for an undetermined amount of time (according to TV guide it could be as short as a few hours and as long as several days) The twist to exile island, there's an immunity idol hidden somewhere on the island and the person who finds it can use it, even after the vote has already been done.

The second big change is the set up of teams. There is going to be 4 teams of 4 to start the game, grouped by age and sex. Older Men, Younger Men, Older Women, Younger Women. The younger folks are all lookers, the older folks are, for the most part, pretty tuff. The older guys team has a former astronaut that's walked on the moon a time or two and an 5th degree black belt, and the older women have a competitive runner and a lady who was actually going to be on Survivor Guatamala, but her son died a week before she was to ship out for the show.

This season should definitly be interesting.

Oh, and <font color="black">Misty</font>is the first person that's going to get sent to Exile Island and <font color="black">Misty</font> is going to be the first Survivor to get booted tonight.
