Survivor producer says 'Hell yes!' to season 50
edition premieres Feb. 12 on CBS. And while 40 is a massive number of installments for a reality television series, one can’t help but look ahead and wonder if the franchise could make it to the even more absurd number of 50. And when I asked executive producer Matt Van Wagenen out on location on day 1 of filming forwhether he thought the show could make it to the magic number, he did not hesitate in the affirmative.
There are people who have played the game and have won and they’re like, “That’s it, I’m out. I don’t want to.” Like Cochran, for instance. He’s not on this season, but he’s someone who we would’ve wanted. I’m going to say Sandra, season 20. How does it get more impressive than that? I mean, just look at it this way: We have, what, four winners from just the villains tribe alone, right? Four winners from that season. And she was able to make her way through that tribe. If you include that whole season, I think we’ve got six winners, ‘cause you also have Tom and JT.
If you were playing this game against these 20 winners, who would you be most worried about right now? stories, but Rob and Amber as a pair have a fantastic story. I don’t know how you don’t see that as a massive threat. But crazy things happen all the time. And these guys are winners for a reason. That’s the thing when you look at them, they all have something and there are no goats here.
I know, and it’s funny, because recent seasons have tended to go a little bit younger. So I think this is an interesting experiment. The average age is over 35, and I don’t know how it’s going to affect things. More than just their age, I think where people are in life could affect things. I think the fact that so many of these people are parents. Tyson is a good example. When he last played, he wasn’t married yet, didn’t have any kids. Here he is, a father of two and a wife who also played.
Mostly because we have one of the greatest casts ever assembled and if we were to lose one of these great people right off the top and never see them again, it would feel like a waste. I mean, truthfully, we just looked at this list and thought, you know, if lose someone on day three and we’ve worked so hard for this season, it’s going to feel like we’ve left something on the table.
