'Survivor: Winners At War' - Jeff Probst On The Player They Couldn't Get | Entertainment Weekly

love him or hate him, you gotta respect Jeff's passion for the show. without that passion, the show never would have lasted 20 years.

Season 41: Runner Ups At War

You need to have a runner up/should’ve won season, Jeff. Without the EOE!

“Old school players can’t win anymore the game is too fast, I don’t think so.” Every old school player gets consecutively voted out.

I wish Cochran was on this season. It would've made his story come full circle. He said he wanted to prove to Jeff that he deserves to be with the best to ever play. Seeing him with all these winners would've been amazing to see him say to Jeff "Told u I would be here"

Ik Todd had problems with alcohol and that’s probably why they didn’t bring him back but he’s legit fine now, and we need to see him again! Also Vecepia is so underrated and she didn’t even get a call for the season

Everyone bringing up lowkey winners who didn’t make the cut. But no one is bringing up the most Lowkey winner: CHRIS DAUGHERTY.

Am I the only one who really wanted Fabio back?

So what Jeff is saying is that when and Amber are the founding fathers, not Hatch and Tina...

Personally, I'd have asked for Chris Daugherty from Vanuatu, simply because his story of overcoming incredible odds with the grandest deceptions and anti-hero dealings all the way to the Final Tribal Council is just INSANE, and despite his age (he'd have been playing this season on his 48th birthday iirc) he'd be a lot of fun to watch again. The same reasoning applies with Mike Holloway from Worlds Apart, and I agree that he would be fun to watch a second time as well.

Imagine if there were 24 winners and the number of days got ramped up to 49 or 50 days, like Australian Survivor. I reckon this season will be the bomb.

Since Jeff did talk about it I will: Richard Hatch - Borneo They originally wanted him back, but Jeff said in an interview "Given his history on our show, it did not seem appropriate", the Dan incident on S39 probably played a factor in it John Cochran - Caramoan Was asked to come back, but declined the offer And those are the only two I could find anything about, I know a few other winners were short-listed, but here they all are: Tina Wesson - The Australian Outback Vecepia Towery - Marquesas Brian Heidik - Thailand Jenna Morasca - The Amazon Chris Daugherty - Vanuatu Tom Westman - Palau Aras Baskauskas - Panama: Exile Island Earl Cole - Figi Todd Herzog - China Bob Crowley - Gabon JT Thomas - Tocantins Natalie White - Samoa Fabio Birza - Nicaragua Mike Holloway - Worlds Apart Chris from Edge of Extinction, and Tommy from Island of the Idols, also did not return because Winners at War starting filming right after Edge of Extinction was finishing up

This is just evidence that you need to have a Winners at war 2

They should have had more old schoolers on to see how they would have played now, like: Hatch, Tina, Vecepia, Jenna, Chris, Earl, Todd and Bob. I also miss Fabio and Mike. And stop fangirling over Cochran so much Jeff 🤦‍♀️😂

I was hoping it was Richard he was going to be talking about

They should’ve got Todd and J.T

I wanna be on survivor one day!!! Hope it's still on when I'm old enough.

Jeff keeps pushing that he wanted all eras of survivor represented but only gets 7 pre season 20 players compared to literally everyone from seasons 31 to 37 lol

We need a season of "should haves", people who should have won, but didn't. People who actually played the game, who fans know should have won. People who weren't lazy and did nothing til the end (some twice!), and only won because the opposition made someone mad. Right from season 1, about half the winners had no business winning, so let's give those who did a better shot.

i was wondering why cochran wasn’t on, he’s one of my favorites 😭
