Over 600 people have playedSurvivor.
But only 38 have ever won the game.
Thats what I noticed after speaking with them before the season began.
Maybe,like Michele, they feel hurt by online reaction to their win.
You vote people out and get them to vote for you as the best player.
You always talk about these other people?
Why didnt I make your top 3 or your top 5?
For these players, beating the competition is not good enough.
And, says Probst, I can relate to that.
Because youre asking for credit.
And some players dont get it.
And some get it, and youre not even surewhythey still get it.
Im sure people get annoyed when [people say to me] You talk about Parvati all the time.
Shes a great winner.
Well, its just an opinion.
Is she a better player than Adam?
I think so, yeah.
Im just a fool out there watching.
Why arent you guys talking aboutSurvivormore and how we reinvent the show?
How were still on when all the others died?
Why is nobody writing that story?
I find myself doing the same thing.
Oh, I read lots of stories about howSurvivorsucks.
They once again have a lousy creative idea.
The drive to succeed and be recognized for it is simple human nature, says Probst.
But I like that.
And thats why youre back.
And thats why you could win again.
Cause you got something burning in there, brother.
Stoke that coal, lets get it going!
And they will get it going starting on Feb. 12.
