If Boston Rob gets the gig to replace Jeff, I will never EVER watch Survivor, ever again. I swear to it. Ever!

I can't think of a single former survivor who could do the host role and hold my attention. Each and everyone of them are media w*#%~s!

I find it hard to believe Burnet would do this show without Jeff. It would slip in ratings and be career suicide for any future host. Jeff would suffer tremendouos criticism for abandoning ship and run the risk of image and career damage.

I can see Jeff signing a contract with clauses. Good hotel near location for he and Julie should she become pregnant or have to join him with an infant, would be one. Trips to the states, for her and child, should either need to see a doctor, etc.

There is no way Jeff will decline only 2 more shows. After 14, that will be the end.

He has fabulous negotiating power, at this point, and stands to make a lot more money too.

Fruit, I think he already stays in plush surroundings. Julie already does visit him. I don't think any of those things are things he's not already getting.

And I don't really think it's all about the money. He's said he hates being away from "home" twice a year for as long as he does. Maybe he could negotiate that Survivor only comes on once a year. Not that I think it'd be all that great for the franchise.

maybe they'll try to get Richard Hatch to host...I could deal with that, or Colby!

If I had a vote it would be for Richard...if for nothing else but to see how he prepares his tax return.

If Jeff has to leave, I want the new host to be Kaysar, just b/c Ikaysar!

Phil from A/R would be good, too.

jeff doesn't make the show for me, but there are certain people who would break it for me. i would never watch again if boston rob got the hosting job. no way, no how. ick! i never liked lex and i'd rather have him be host than rob. hell, i'd take brandon and his chapstick over rob. i'd rather have richard simmons over rob.
i'd take jerri over rob. tabby shudders at the thought.
i don't like jeff as much as anderson cooper or phil (from TAR). he just seems sleazy to me personal life-wise.
rupert would be a trip.
kaysar would be a big eye-candy, devastatingly handsome addition to this show, that's for sure!!

Interesting concept, Kaysar definitely has the demeanor to pull it off. :-)

Have a question... Does anyone know about the immunity idol Gary won? Was it a one time only use? I deleted that episode where they announced it and wasn't sure the rules on it.

Yeah, just one time use, Share. I'm glad about that, though. If it was for multiple uses it would be boring to watch that person go all the way to the final three or four without having to participate fully.

Personally I think Joe Rogan from Fear Factor would be a perfect replacement for Jeff Probst.

I think Richard Hatch would be the snarkiest host ... and I'd love it. But Colby would be fun to watch. Gervase might be great at hosting.

I'm actually liking the Kaysar idea. He would love the mind games at Tribal Council! He's single, well traveled, open to challenges and well spoken. He's got my vote! Let's start a campaign if Jeff doesn't sign on for more years.

What makes Jeff a great host? He is smart, well spoken, nice looking, and has an air of authority about him. Of the women, who fits that profile? Alicia from the Outback season. As far as the men are concerned, I think the winner, Tom, from last season would be great. He has the same qualities that Jeff has, and I bet he is not much older if any than Jeff. I vote for Alicia or Tom. Too bad our votes don't count. LOL

I wouldn't watch with either Alicia *or* Tom. I might watch if they brought in Richard Hatch (and I do think he might be amusing at the TCs). I wouldn't watch if it was Colby (although I doubt if he'd give up his "almost" movie career for a TV show hosting gig -- I think he wants to disassociate himself from reality TV!) AFA Gervase, I'm not sure. I thought he seemed to be a publicity hound when he first was on Survivor, but I've not heard a lot about him for a while.

But please! No Boston Rob! No Amber! No Jonny Fairplay. And no Jenna (any of the Jenna's). Please!!!

I think Joe has too much association with Fear Factor. But you have to admit, he's used to people eating gross things (and egging 'em on while they do). Still, I don't see HIM leaving his golden goose any time soon.

I'm not so sure Kaysar would be all that great of a host. Yeah, sure, they've got some bits of a script. But the rest is ad libbing, and I think Kaysdar thought too much before he spoke. I loved him on BB, but I am not sure that he's quick enuf on his feet for Survivor.

While I liked Rupert's personality in Survivor Pearl Islands, I don't think it would translate well as the host of Survivor.

Please don't throw banana peels at me.

Why is everyone so sure that Jeff is leaving? Has he said anything to that effect?

Sag, Jeff has hinted around that he will not be renewing his contract after Survivor 12. He's basically tired of traveling and being away from home so much, now that he's "in love". :-)
