Jeff Probst, the face of “Survivor” for almost 24 years, is gearing up for the show’s 48th season with a renewed sense of excitement. The show’s authenticity and ability to evolve over time has kept Probst engaged and viewers hooked. Probst describes “Survivor” as a study of human behavior, where contestants must navigate complex social dynamics in a jungle setting.
The upcoming season will feature 18 new contestants from diverse backgrounds, including one with autism and a single dad who is a firefighter. Probst explains that contestants are forced to rely on each other, but ultimately must turn on one another, making for a compelling and complicated adventure.
Looking ahead to the show’s 50th season, Probst revealed plans for a theme where fans will be in charge of the show’s creative direction. This idea, while terrifying, is also exciting for Probst and the show’s production team.
The two-hour premiere of “Survivor” season 48 will air on Wednesday on CBS, with 90-minute episodes to follow throughout the season. Probst, who also serves as an executive producer, is looking forward to continuing the legacy of a show that has captivated audiences for nearly two decades.
