The last couple of seasons of Survivor have been pretty consistent in the ratings and that’s no easy feat these days. Will this venerable competition series continue to perform for CBS? Will it be renewed for a 33rd season or, will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned.
Jeff Probst returns as host with Survivor: Kaôh Rōng. The “Brains vs Brawn vs Beauty” season splits contestants into three teams based on intelligence, athleticism, and attractiveness.

I love Survivor and I’m glad it’s back…. & glad they voted off the right person in the first show!
