Here are some snap judgements about people I don’t know based on dodgy stereotypes.
Angie: 24, Bartender. Has 11 tattoos, so token wild child. Headed for an early exit for being too outspoken.
Ashlee: 22, Student. Token Mormon (see The Amazing Race). Will struggle physically and may be voted off in sympathy.
Bobby Jon: 27, Waiter. Cosmo’s 2003 "Most Eligible Bachelor" in Alabama – wow. Will do well on the women’s vote.
Caryn: 46, Civil Rights Attorney. Likely to be a hard-core player, but that could go against her like Ami last year.
Coby: 32, Hairstylist. Presumably the token homosexual. Will give the best one-on-one interviews. Has jury potential.
Gregg: 28, Business Consultant. Was high school quarterback and team captain. Will be too strong in the individual challenges to be kept around.
Ian: 23, Dolphin Trainer. No comment.
Ibrehim: 27, Waiter. Has also done modelling and acting. The boring, quiet one who goes early and nobody remembers.
James: 33, Steelworker. Token blue collar battler. Based on Chris’s performance last year could be a chance for the final five.
Janu: 39, Las Vegas Showgirl. "I’m a dancer, not a stripper!" A 39 year old showgirl doesn’t know when to quit, so may do better than form suggests.
Jeff: 21, Personal Trainer. Super fit so will do well until his dominance in the individual challenges becomes a threat.
Jennifer: 32, Nanny. The sweet, quiet one. Will go far if she stays under the radar and pulls her weight around camp.
Jolanda: 39, Lawyer. Token ethnic minority. Had a tragic upbringing so is either a genuine survivor or will annoy by playing the victim.
Jonathan: 23, Sales & Marketing. Had testicular cancer in 2003. Not sure if he’s also an amputee, but still qualifies as this year’s Chad. On the jury, won’t win.
Katie: 29, Advertising Exec. Provided one of the most boring and least revealing bios. First one to go after the tribes merge.
Kim: 25, Graduate Student. Politics major, so will either do the scheming well or make an utter fool of herself: the latter will be much better TV.
Stephanie: 25, Pharmaceutical Sales Rep. Token young, good-looking drug company rep; there’s always at least one. Will do well on the physical stuff.
Tom: 41, NYC Firefighter. Token hero. Others may be reluctant to vote him out too early as a result, so could do quite well.
Wanda: 55, English Teacher. Will be kept to the end for her work ethic. Might make the final three, but won’t be taken to the final two if she gets there.
Willard: 57, Lawyer. Sniper in Vietnam then joined the Postal Service. Should really be treated with kid gloves, but will go early for losing a team challenge.
