Now THAT's a Survivor!

Now in its 52nd season on stick-in-the-mud network CBS, SURVIVOR has become TV's ultimate survivor. The only reason to watch early episodes each season is for Jeff Probst's snippy remarks to the shell-shocked, filthy, starving contestants. The show's original mind-numbing predictability has given way to a throw-the-chessboard-into-the-air chaos each episode with completely erasing the lines of the game. SURVIVOR continues to feel very planned-out. I guess you have to plan pretty carefully to take a couple hundred people to the Tocantins for 60 days or so. I'm sure it would ruin the "magic" but I would love to see a behind-the-scenes season of SURVIVOR and/or a behind-the-scenes season of THE AMAZING RACE. The shows themselves have become pretty boring, but I sure would love to see each episode followed by a "how'd they did it" hour. Along those lines, the Probster, is blogging on EW.com about this season. Check it out.

Probst and his Daddy

Um, what the heck is going on in Jeff Probst's dressing room before the Emmys?! Actually, I don't care, I just want to see more of it!

Probst Fans: Better Than A&E's Biography

If --like me-- you are a fan of SURVIVOR and the perpetually sexy Jeff Probst you will be KICKING yourself for missing this morning's LIVE WITH JEFF PROBST AND KELLY. The Probster shared MANY intimate details from his youth and a couple of unbelievable photos of himself in spandex pants with feathered hair circa 1980something. Once again, I can't stress enough that every American human should be watching LIVE WITH _____ & KELLY every morning. if you missed the Probst-a-thon this morning, you can catch it online. The "host chat" is really the best part of the show. Unless the guest is someone super special, I fast forward through. But, the opening of the show is really the best live chat on TV. Plus, some mornings you get to wake up to Kelly wearing some crazy-ass dress. Below is a dress Kelly wore on May 28 (not pictured on Kelly). I ordered two before she even sat down!
