Jeff Probst Interview

Survivor will take some of the lessons learned from the success of its past two seasons and combine them for its next installment, Survivor: San Juan del Sur — Blood vs. Water, which will be filmed in Nicaragua and premiere on CBS in September. Not only do we have the brand new logo for season 29 for you above, but host Jeff Probst shared some early intel with EW on what to expect.

The Blood vs. Water concept first debuted in season 27 when 10 former players returned, each bringing a loved one to compete with/against. But instead of returning players, this new Blood vs. Water cast will feature pairs of all new contestants. Jeff Probst credits the fans for pushing the show to bring back all new players for the Cagayan season that just wrapped up, and the success of that installment gave producers the confidence to do it again. “We really listened to people saying, ‘Oh my gosh, we love new players again. This is so fresh and it feels so good,’” says the host. “And we went down the road with a couple of different ways to do Blood vs. Water, and we started casting it, and started finding really good people, and then more good people, and then it became a very easy decision to go with a completely new cast. “

Of course, with returning players that viewers were already familiar with, it was easy to make the Blood vs. Water connection in terms of who was whose sibling or spouse. Putting all new players in the mix means the show will have to work a bit harder to establish those connections for viewers. “Since it is all new people you need to find a way to bond them quickly so that the audience knows, ‘Oh, okay, that’s the father and that’s the son,’’ says Probst. “And we do have something out of the gate that will help with that a little bit. We just have to do a very good job in how we tell those stories, when you cut from one person on one beach, then cut to their significant other on the other beach. And you just slowly start pairing them together. I’m not really concerned about it. Also, looking at the group we have, I would bet that if we lined them up randomly, the average person could probably get 60 to 70 percent just based on looking at them.”

The return of the Blood vs. Water twist also means the return of Redemption Island, which Probst had previously told EW would probably only return for Blood vs. Water seasons. “Yes, Redemption Island is back,” says Probst. “And there wasn’t even a consideration to not bring it back because so much of our drama came from that explosive energy at Redemption Island when the tribes were already there and then the competitors walk in and it’s the first moment that the other tribe gets to see who was voted out and then you have a loved one going, ‘Oh, man, it was my wife! Are you kidding me? Who did that?’ And I think that was really the cornerstone for a lot of story that came from it.”

However Probst does note that there will be a change to the way the contests take place there. “We have another twist that’s going to happen regarding duels at Redemption Island, a little different from last year, so I’m curious to see how that plays out and if we can get some story from that.” (Could that mean a return back to two person duels as opposed to three person contests, or something else entirely?)

The show will be returning for seasons 29 and 30 to Nicaragua, the same location for the filming of two previous installments (Nicaragua and Redemption Island), and Probst says his team has a plan in place to combat one of the negatives from their previous experience there — a lack of suitable locations for water challenges. “That was the mandate from the moment we decided on Nicaragua,” says Probst. “The one thing I kept asking our scouting crew for was updates on how the water situation was looking, and between our art department and our challenge department, they’ve got it under control. We’re going to have a lot more water challenges and be in the water more —and really that’s the only concern we had about Nicaragua, is that it was a little dry last time.”

In general, Probst is confident that Survivor can continue its recent hot streak (the past four seasons all rank in top 10 of all-time). “We have not shot a single second of the show,” says the host, “but I feel really good going in that we have another very good group of people.”

Oh I didn't know it was all newbies :amazed:

I like that, I can watch it.

[starry]

I don't like Redemption Island or people having family members there really. It's a shame because this latest season and the Cochran one were good.

[Macie Lightfoot]

"the Cochran one" was one of the worst ever goodbye starry

[Black Dagger]

It had Dawn, it could being a goddess, it could never.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Cochran season was good? Eaisly one of the worst seasons the show has had

[Braden]

Season 29 is going to come so fast.

I'm gonna miss Cagayan, it was such an amazing series. I haven't had this feeling of absence for a reality show in a long time. Probably not since the good days of Big Brother (series 6 & 7).

I'm gonna miss the cast :(

[reece(:]

Cochran season was good? Eaisly one of the worst seasons the show has had
both Cochran seasons for a matter of fact.

[Headie]

This will start after the BBUS Finale I'm presuming? Like last year's BvW? :love:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Yep Winter Survivor always starts on the finale night of Big Brother.

Think the cast will be heading out in the next two weeks so we might get at first spoilers on the cast. I think some famous duo will be one of the pairs.

There was rumours that they were looking specifically for twins and Natalie & Nadiya from TAR were approached (rumour).

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Yeah I heard that too, Rachel and Elissa were rumoured as well but I doubt CBS would give that much exposure to Rachel.

Maybe Danielle and Dominic might be cast?

[reece(:]

BB Finale and Survivor Premiere night is definitely the best TV night of the year.

[Josiah.]

What do you guys think 'Ancient Voices' will sound like for the new season (seeing as how Cagayan used the Micronesia theme)?

[swinearefine]

I can't tell if "San Juan del Sur" is a worse name than "South Pacific" or not. I'm looking forward to it because there are no veterans, but my god could they not do better than picking the name of a random town that no one knows?

[Marc]

Are they going to bring back that AMAZING SUPER NEW BRILLIANT idol that didn't even get used? :bored:

[SoBig]

On reddit Jeff Probst said they are never bringing it back.

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh:


I think it was far too powerful.

[swinearefine]

What did they honestly expect from something Tyler Perry thought up? At least now we have confirmation of his "creative" process - find a ****ty idea that's already been done and do it again but 10x ****tier.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Apparently the cast have been on location for the last few days, probably to do promos and pictures/interviews and filming starts in the next few days.

Strangely the twins from the Amazing Race have both been inactive on twitter for a few days now.... possible cast?

[reece(:]

The fact that RI is back :bored: and no more Rites of Passage :bored:

I think the Twinnies are on since neither of them have tweeted since May 26th and they usually tweet everyday. One of the twins tweeted something about packing a suitcase too, so I'l be surprised/disappointed if they're not on. It's like my dream to see them on TV again, Survivor would be perfect :love:

There's 2 cast members pretty much confirmed, 2 brothers who have gone inactive on social media and all their friends and family posted saying good luck. They're called Alec & Drew Christy
http://i.imgur.com/DegEcAQ.png

And that tweet Danielle Reyes tweeted about staying off Twitter and having a meeting with Jeff Probst seems quite suspicious but I doubt she'd make it that obvious so she's probably not on.

She/he spoilt the whole cast of The Amazing Race 24 and how they finished etc and how they spoiled the ending of Amazing Race 23. They have been accurate so far when it comes to spoilers. They also are saying Big Brother 16 will be returning players/newbies with past relationships. They basically said Dom and Dani will be back.

[Headie]

Lots of new info about S29 from Jeff Probst himself:

- 1 pair (2 contestants) had to drop out just before filming stared due to medical reasons
- NO REDEMPTION ISLAND <333333
- There will be an arena used this season, but not for Redemption Island, for something else.... he didn't say what though.

The goddesses of The Amazing Race and the saviours of Survivor Season 29 :love:

They're so funny and hilarious... the casuals hate them but that's because they hate anything remotely entertaining.

Twinnies are my favourite TAR team of all-time I think, so I am ecstatic that they're both going to be on Survivor.

Queens Natalie and Nadiya, it is unacceptable to question who they are

So as well as The Twinnies, The Christy Brother and the Gay Guys, another guy has been spoiled/leaked after some people on sucks have done some digging:

Wes Nale followed Natalie on Instagram (I think) and it seems like he's definitely on, hasn't been on social media since filming began and only came back on it yesterday/today when filming has finished.

Well its the bae @daddynale3 birthday today and I can only imagine what hes doing at this exact moment! im not even sure how he could keep up with the days to know that today is his birthday but we will celebrate him none the less! Iv never met a person that doesnt like my boy wes nale. My buddy one way or another finds a way to get that job done and hes one charismatic son of a gun! Im so glad he made that stupid application video 5 years ago in my kitchen bc my man is in his element today and I cant wait to hear his victorious survival stories. Love u winston. Happy b day daddy nale!


Don't know who his partner is yet.

[reece(:]

not here for Nale and not here for the lack of girls

[Headie]

Another thing from sucks, this time it looks like the medevaced pair at the start of the season have been identified

So Kim looks like a cast member from this post on instagram- http://instagram.com/p/ohOvwJiO-O/?modal=true

I'm pretty sure the other girl is her sister. This would align with this post- http://instagram.com/p/nRr0Z4iO0D/?modal=true where So and her sister whose name I think is Doo are celebrating probably about leaving and starting the game.

This post here- http://instagram.com/p/p1RZJmCOyT/?modal=true makes things more interesting though because So replies to a comment about being back two weeks ago with "that's a bit of a story...I'll be leaving again at the end of July..." With Season 30 being filmed at the end of the July it could be possible that So and her sister were the two people who were cut before the game started (same sex couple and unlikely that three M/M pairs were cast imo)

Allie also follows her so yeah it looks like So Kim and her sister were cast but whether they actually made it on the show is the main question now. So Kim looks like a cast member from this post on instagram- http://instagram.com/p/ohOvwJiO-O/?modal=true

twitter.com/so_kim

she followed Reed and Josh and other survivors. also, favorited tweets from allie and rc about the s29 medevac pair. unless this is all coincidental, i'd say it looks like she and her sister Doo were the two who were pulled from the game before it started.


So Kim definitely wasn't on San Juan del Sur. She just accepted my request on Instagram, and she has instagrammed multiple times during the filming period. BUT, she just uploaded a picture of herself making fire in the woods using a bowstring, so this seems to all add up that she is on S30. It seems more and more likely that So and Doo were the Medevaced pair. http://instagram.com/p/qXa1XfiO1a/

:bawling: @ the medevaced pair being two young, fierce asian sisters :( Natalie & Nadiya better fill that role in the absence of So & Doo

[reece(:]

omg 8 girls & 10 boys? :umm2:

[Headie]

So Kim is on S30 because yesterday she uploaded a picture of herself making fire in the woods, and she said she is "leaving again in July", which is when S30 is filming.

At least we'll still get to see her, we just have to wait a little bit longer.

This is Miss Cleo said after people started doubting the Twinnies spoiler

First of all, spoiling something that has already taken place is different than spoiling something that has yet to take place. My track record with the former speaks for itself.

Secondly, BB16 was going to have returnees when I posted that spoiler weeks before the season started. I made it abundantly clear that CBS is renowned for making changes up to the very last minute when it comes to casting BB, and they did (just pay attention to when several of them were recruited...for many, it was a matter of weeks before the premiere). I have no way to prove that I was right, just as you have no way to prove that I was wrong.

What I posted about the Twinnies is accurate, and I will vehemently defend this spoiler until you see it play out for yourselves this fall.

What is exile island?

A Island where one castaway or sometimes two are banished too for a night or two with the added bonus of the hidden immunity idols being hid on the island for them to find (or sometimes gives them clues to where it is on their tribes island)

Here for val winning

[Headie]

Some vague spoilers

Sumo challenge is second immunity challenge.
Stick challenge (John vs. Natalie promo) is third immunity challenge or later, but we're assuming it's the third.
All of Hunahpu (blue tribe) makes it to episode 3 based on the preview. John does too obvs.
Nadiya and Natalie are confirmed to at least make jury.
Val makes it to at least episode 3.
Alec, Baylor, Dale, Jaclyn, Josh, Wes. Two of these are the first two boots.

What's this I hear about a racist cast mate?

[Flamingjoe]

What's this I hear about a racist cast mate?

Ugh. He's awful. He's not even just racist, he's homophobic, too.

I have no idea why production have suddenly felt the need to cast bigoted professional athletes recently (eg. Jeff Kent).

This is the quote that most people refer to when they criticise John R.

I'd retire first. It's the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take the 7 Train to the ballpark looking like you're riding through Beirut next to some kid with purple hair, next to some queer with AIDS, right next to some dude who just got out of jail for the fourth time, right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It's depressing... The biggest thing I don't like about New York are the foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?

[Braden]

^ oh I see! very ignorant of him to say such a thing.

Thank you for sharing that! :)

Jeff Probst ‏@JeffProbst 4m

#survivor There is a supertease at the end of ep one. Teases some of the things that will happen this season but not who they happen to!

[reece(:]

"This is a very unorthodox season," Probst says. "Some seasons just roll along and you can almost predict it. This season, I couldn't have predicted the way it was going to go. I would have never predicted who was going to win or be in at the end. And I hope that's the same journey that the audience has. Just so many weird things happen. Tribes have issues that they have to deal with me about, and they're losing things and wanting to trade for things and running out of things. It was just a constant, daily, 'What? What happened now?' I think there are a lot of things we haven't seen in a while, and I think the audience is going to enjoy it. I think it's going to feel refreshing and different."

Loved the little BB Finale backstage thing :love:

[Macie Lightfoot]

I *NEED* to see Baylor and Messy after a tribe swap or both at the merge. I'm fascinated by the fact that Missy's had three divorces so she just trusts Baylor's instincts from now on, and that Baylor is a complete and total bitch and is probably a explanation for the three divorces <3

omg it's between Nadiya and Dale ? :worry:

I love Survivor and all but the narrative they show is soooooo sloppy sometimes.

BAYLOR flipped?! And JOSH voted for Baylor?!?!?!

[Macie Lightfoot]

Dalton Ross ‏@DaltonRoss 12s
Interesting #Survivor on-the-scene tidbit: The Baylor vote came from Josh, who said he changed it while at Tribal. Not sure why though.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Very glad to see nadiya she's clearly super uneducated with how she was describing josh

I kinda get your point (except that you rarely defend The Gays so I'm shocked more than anything) except that John Rocker would kill Josh if he had his way.

Based on previews I can see Jeremy and Keith clashing for some reason

Sounds like someone quits?
