Is it just us, or does it feel like ‘Survivor’ is on TV year-round? Last night, shortly after announcing the winner of ‘Survivor: Nicaragua,’ Jeff Probst and CBS unveiled details of the upcoming Season 22. And we learned that it will usher in some big changes to the show’s format.
In the past we’ve had All-Star seasons, Fans vs. Favorites, Young vs. Old and Heroes vs. Villains. We’ve had nudists and celebrities. Some seasons had two tribes, others have had four, but the basic premise — once you’re voted off the island, the show’s over for you — hasn’t changed.
However, coming out of a season that tried out several gimmicks with mixed success, the show’s in danger of becoming tired and predictable.
So, following the example of ‘American Idol’ and others, producers have introduced a twist: Eliminated contestants won’t go straight home. Instead, they’ll head to ‘Redemption Island’ where they’ll get another chance to compete.
