survivor is still around because it's one of the rare quality reality tv shows
around. most reality is crap as everyone just jumped on the bandwagon and made a
show.
anyone that has watched survivor before knows exactly how good it is and how
they always mix things and add new and exciting things to the show. the creators
aren't stupid and the show wouldn't get such great ratings and run for 14
seasons if it wasn't good.
take notice of your local tv guides and reviews. survivor constantly gets great
reviews from even the harshest critics so if you can please them, then you know
you're onto something good.
i must say i'm surprised that a new season has started already but i think it's
great. i love the show :d
