Survivor<\/a> without Jeff Probst<\/a>? Surely not! But the ubiquitous host of the most famous reality competition show in the world thinks that even without him, Survivor will be just fine. He may be right. However, he thankfully doesn\u2019t plan on going anywhere anytime soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m telling you right now, there\u2019s no thought in my mind at all about leaving,\u201d Jeff told E! News<\/a>. \u201cI love where the show is, and I love our crew. I love the type of people applying. It\u2019s up in every category of ethnic diversity. Everybody\u2019s saying it\u2019s because \u2018I see myself reflected and represented in the show, so now I want to be on the show.\u2019 That makes me excited.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2021, the show switched from a 39-day competition to one that\u2019s just over three weeks. This lightened everyone\u2019s load. \u201cThe 26-day schedule got rid of a third of the shoot, and that\u2019s been really positive because the show is draining,\u201d Jeff revealed. \u201cBut now it\u2019s doable. It\u2019s still draining, but it\u2019s doable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Currently, Jeff isn\u2019t worried about Survivor\u2019s future. \u201cI absolutely 100 percent know this show will go on without me,\u201d he admitted. \u201cBecause it\u2019s the format. The key would be who\u2019s going to be producing and who\u2019s going to be hosting and what point of view they are going to bring to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jeff says a host isn\u2019t just a talking head for Survivor but someone who has a point of view about human behavior. That\u2019s what makes it interesting, and that\u2019s what keeps people applying to be on the show and viewers tuned in.<\/p>\n

Survivor<\/a>\u00a0is available to stream on Paramount+.<\/p>\n
