Survivor 2013: Jeff Probst Admits He Doesn’t ‘Really Care What Happens At Tribal’

Jeff Probst on Survivor

Last week on Survivor 2013 Caramoan, returning player Corinne was blindsided and voted out and while some fans are up in arms about it, show host Jeff Probst doesn’t really care. Nor does he care what happens at any Tribal council, he tells Entertainment Weekly.

Well, he might care if the season is going badly and a really great player gets voted out. But he apparently doesn’t put Corinne into that category. In fact, from the quote below, I don’t think he like Corinne much.

Okay here’s my truth. Philosophically I don’t really care what happens at Tribal so long as the season as a whole is going well and since we have no control of the vote it’s silly to get worked up about it. But from a producing point of view, for a season to go really well we need to lose the boring people and keep the interesting people — villains or heroes. Blindsides are always great, but if they cost us our most memorable people then there is definitely an invoice. So separating myself from the show and just answering as a fan of the show, I was okay with Corinne being voted out.  And with that, you can add Corinne to the list of former players who don’t like me.

Way to tell it like it is, Jeff! I love him and his honesty.
