Survivor 51: Is Jeff Probst already looking ahead?

We know at this point that for a lot of diehard fans of Survivor, the focus is very much on season 50. However, is Jeff Probst looking further ahead? Well, based on what we are hearing from the host right now, it appears as though that is actually the case.

One of the things to remember with this show is that in some ways, it is a year-round operation. Sure, the seasons are often filmed around the spring but technically, the fall is spent on casting and preparing things behind the scenes. Then you have editing and everything else that happens in the months that follow the show wrapping up in Fiji.

Speaking recently to TVLine, Probst himself was optimistic about not just the show, but also his continued role in it moving forward:

“I think my personal connection to the show is obvious. I live, breathe, eat, sleep and think about Survivor all day … and I hope that if my time comes to an end and I’ve run out of ideas, that it’ll be obvious to me, so that I don’t have to get voted out of the game. But right now, I don’t feel that. I feel really energetic about our team and our ideas, and we’re already working on 51. We’re really excited about it.

Seasons 51 and 52 are likely to film back to back and at this point, we do still think that we’re going to see the show make it to at least an incredible season 60. One of the things that the series has done a great job at over the years is finding ways to refresh the brand — take now, where it does feel like there’s a real effort to keep younger viewers engaged so that they can be fans of the experience long-term.
