Well, it's official. The cast of "Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans" has been announced and features a wealth of familiar faces.

In celebration of half of decade of outwitting, outplaying and outlasting on a desolate island, "Survivor" Season 50's castaways are all former contestants.

One competitor who will be returning has gained particular fame since his time on the island, after penning HBO's hit show "The White Lotus." That's right, Mike White is back to compete again.

In honor of the writer's return to an island that won't be nearly as luxurious as his "White Lotus" sets, let's take a walk down memory lane and reflect on his first run on "Survivor."
