Could be like the Real World and have a variation of hosts. Could add some spice not knowing who the host would be, etc.

I do think the new host may change the dynamics of the show, but that can be a good thing, eh?

This was pulled from the article...

Survivor producer Mark Burnett expects next spring's 12th edition of Survivor will be the last for its host, Jeff Probst – and a former female contestant from that granddaddy of reality shows may replace him.


Hmmm Interesting.

I really don't think Burnett would do something as stoopid (in my opinion) as giving the hosting position to Jerri. She really was (is) one of the most disliked contestants, and she really does have almost no redeeming qualities. The fact that she was hosting a cable show is not the same thing as hosting a prime time show. And not many have made the leap (Elisabeth on "The View" is an exception). Honestly, if Jerri becomes the new host, I'll really not watch. I'm already bored with this season.

Spitfire, I don't think it's so much we know what to expect as that this season's contestants aren't all that exciting. They aren't doing much other than the comps, so they sit around and nap or whine. Part of the reason is all the water that they've been unable to hang out in. But part of it is that I think the contestants are just not all that likable. There's really not a one that stands out as a "must win". With the addition of Stephanie and Bobby Jon -- who are two known entities -- also hasn't been that thrilling.

I'm enjoying learning a bit about Maya culture. But not much this season has really caught my attention. I think I'm watching more from habit than anything else. <sigh>

Oh, and Jenna Morasco is dating Ethan, from Survivor Africa.

Whoever they pick for the future, I hope it's someone as charismatic as Probst. I don't see Cesterino as being as charismatic (and from what I've seen of him, he doesn't have the confidence to pull it off). If Rob (Boston Rob) becomes the new host, I will boycott Survivor until the end of time!!!

Jenna M. is a terrible host on Survivor Live -- she constantly interrupts people to talk about herself. I hope it's not Steph either. The Survivor host doesn't need to be the star of the show. They need someone who understands the game well and can ask tough questions at TC.

The article was moved off the page. Did it say WHY my most perfect Jeffie was leaving the show? Since I can't seem to think of anyone who I would like to see host the show, I've decided to make my list of who I DON'T want to take My Perfect Jeffie's hosting position:

1. Jerri
2. Jonny Fairplay
3. Susan Hawk

Producer: Jeff Probst to Leave Survivor

Survivor producer Mark Burnett expects next spring's 12th edition of Survivor will be the last for its host, Jeff Probst – and a former female contestant from that granddaddy of reality shows may replace him.

"I believe in my gut that he will move on," producer Mark Burnett told TV Guide about Probst, according to RealityTVWorld.com, adding that Burnett "half-nodded" when asked if Probst would be replaced by a former female player from the show.

Burnett's statement preceded Probst's announcement on Live with Regis and Kelly that the rumors were untrue that he was leaving Survivor because he was in love with Survivor: Vanuatu's Julie Berry and his contract was expiring after "Survivor 12."




Jeff Probst and Julie Berry
CREDIT: JOE PUGLIESEEarlier this month, Probst, 43, told PEOPLE about Berry, 24: "I finally met someone who could teach me about love. Julie's given me a sense of balance I've never had. It's like fingers interlacing."

Berry, whom Probst waited to ask out until the game was over (she came in fifth place during season nine), is equally smitten. "Everything is a brighter shade," says the former youth mentor from Maine. "We complement each other beautifully."

As for his Survivor job, Probst told PEOPLE that he was unsure about whether he'll renew.

"There's the inevitable point where you go, 'Do I want to do other things?'" he said. "But like I told someone the other day, I don't want to be the David Caruso of reality TV. I'll never have as good a job as Survivor."

I will go through all the seasons and make my yay and nay picks.

Survivor Borneo Season 1
Yay to Colleen Haskell
Nay to Susan Hawk, KellyWiglesworth, and Jenna Lewis.

I wasn't impressed with the cast. I did however enjoy the drama.

Survivor Australian Outback Season 2
Alicia Calaway, Elisabeth Filarski, and Tina Wesson.
Nay to Kimmi Kappenberg.

This cast was interesting to say the least, I think this show tugged at the heart strings. It was unfortunate Michael Skupin and his accident. I was surprised to not see him on all stars, his potential and spirit to outwit outplay outlast was intriguing.


Survivor Africa Season 3
I wasn't impressed with this seasons female cast. I don't have any yay picks. The closest to fit the category would be Kim Johnson, but she was too snubby for my liking. Nays would be the remaining women.

This season was extremely comical (insert big Tom and his overalls). The men surely had the spotlight this season. Me likey. =)

Survivor Marquesas Season 4
Again another season I was not too impressed with. Maybe because the ones I pulled for didn't make it far. I enjoyed Zoes character though.

This season almost turned me off of Survivor, it didn't seem very competitive.

Survivor Thailand Season 5
Yay to Stephanie Dill and Shii Ann Huang.
Nay to the remaining, Just wasn't impressed.

This season almost seems like a faded memory. I really don't remember alot about this season. Yawn!

The Amazon Season 6

Yay to Heidi Strobel. I would also say Christy Smith even though I know there is no way possible. I related well with her character since my grandmother was also deaf.
Nay to the remaining women, they don't really jump out to me as vocal enough for this position.

Pearl Islands Season 7
Yay Darrah Johnson and Christa Hastie.
Nay to Lillian Morris and Sandra Diaz.

This by far had to be the most entertaining Survivor ever. Aye!

Survivor All Stars Season 8
Oy since I already stated my opinion in prior no need to again. Except for an Absolute NAY to Amber Brkich err I mean umm Mariano.

How about Rupert? What's not to love? :heart

Survivor Vanuatu Season 9
Yay to Ami Cusack and Scout Lee.
Nay to Dolly Neely and Twila Tanner.

I didn't like the division between the women. I don't and have never understood why these ladies couldn't coexist together. When I think about this show I think about a hissing cat.

Survivor Palau Season 10
Yay to Katie Gallagher and Jennifer Lyon.
Nay to Angie Jakusz, Caryn Groedel, Janu Tornell, and Wanda Shirk.

Okay I know alot of people really dislike Stephenie LaGrossa but I think she has potential for this position. She has btdt and can spin things. jmo =)

This season was umm a little one sided. I like it when the tribes are on even grounds. I mean would have been more interesting had MB change them around more. I guess this season was just a little more obvious on how it was going to end.

Survivor Guatemala Season 11
Yay Brooke, Cindy, Morgan and maybe Danni.
Nay Amy. I liked Amy, but don't see her in this role.

I'm voting for Alicia. She was the coolest and strongest-looking woman ever to play Survivor, IMO. And she had that wonderful personality that grated so well on her fellow competitors...

Come on, people, ya'll know Burnett gives away nothing. He says female, so you know it has to be male, which means it has to be COLBY DONALDSON.

I think Colby is intent on a movie career. And Elisabeth already has a great day job. So I doubt if Burnett could manage to snag either of those two.

I think quite a few past Survivors were wannabe's, but I don't actually recall any of 'em having any prior experience. Per se. Sure a lot of wannabe's though, especially in the beginning. Gervase. What's her name, the skinny chick from Florida? So many names...

I would hate it if they used a past Survivor, it needs to be a real host, not a former player. Kind of takes away from the game to have a former player in there. Jeff is the Survivor host, it shouldn't be anyone else. I will have a really hard time watching the show if this is what they do.

No offense, but I can't stand Rob C. I think he's smarmy and obnoxious. I think he would turn Survivor into a cartoon show.

But that's JMO.
