CBS has renewed their long-running reality hit Survivor for another year, with two more editions scheduled for the 2009-2010 season. Season 19 will air in the fall, with Season 20 airing in the spring.
Jeff Probst will return as host. Probst's most recent contract took him through the current 18th season, Survivor: Tocantins, but obviously a new deal was made.
Says Survivor Executive Producer Mark Burnett, "I am happy to be able produce two more editions of Survivor for our loyal fans. Our show stands for high quality family entertainment and all of us on this team will continue to deliver on this promise."
"We have a unique relationship with our audience," says Probst. "They tell us what they like and we listen. It's worked for 18 editions and we're looking forward to delivering two more satisfying seasons!"
