CBS renewed "Survivor" for editions #19 and 20 last week, continuing a remarkable for the network's most highest rated and 2nd most critically acclaimed reality series.
The renewal of the Thursday night franchise for two more runs was no surprise, especially after the second episode of "Survivor: Tocantins" scored a higher age 18-49 Nielsen rating than "CSI" the same night.
What is more interesting is that the renewal now matches the network's commitment to host Jeff Probst. Should CBS wish to continue the franchise for yet more editions, it will either have to make another yet new deal with Probst again or seek a new show host.
