Survivor is switching up the game for its upcoming 50th season. In a statement to Entertainment Weekly, host and showrunner Jeff Probst revealed that fans will get to vote on key pieces of gameplay. “From the very first season, Survivor has been evolving,” he said. “Now, for our 50th season, it’s time for the next evolution. Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans is unlike anything we’ve done before. For the first time ever, our loyal fans will take control.”
Beginning this month, fans will vote on topics like “Idols or No Idols,” “Final Four Fire Making: Keep It or Lose It,” and “Live Finale and Reunion Show in L.A. — or Keep the Winner Reveal and Aftershow in the Jungles of Fiji.” However, fans will not get to vote on whether or not to fire host Jeff Probst. Results of these votes will be revealed while filming. Voting begins February 26 on the show’s special website.
