For over 20 years, Survivorhas elevated average, ordinary people into near-household names. The level of attention given to any contestant after competing on the long-running CBS reality television/competition series outweighs the million-dollar prize that awaits castaways who finish as the Sole Survivor after 39 or 26 days. Recently, prominent Survivor stars, including “Boston” Rob Mariano, Parvati Shallow, Cirie Fields, and Tony Vlachos, have appeared on other reality shows after building up their public persona on the island, much to the chagrin of host and executive producer Jeff Probst. Understandably, less popular and debuting reality shows will try to poach the established talent of a power player like Survivor, but Probst has expressed frustration over this tactic, despite his best efforts not to be too territorial over individuals’ lives. However, because Survivor is so character-driven, we can sympathize with Probst’s protection of his cherished series.
