Notice how he has been doing this for 20 years and hasn’t actually aged
It's called botox lol
*Botox has entered the chat*
I know right.
I’m a fan of his, but c’mon, he’s had tons of work done. He’s botoxed up.
Botox and also he is the type of person, that looks older at young age and as he grows he looks more and more like hisself. Similar to Keanu Reeves
survivor will forever go down in tv history , best show ever created
Until it turns into The Simpsons.
It’s beautiful
Eh. I'd say it's tied with Ninja Warrior. Both provide amazing amounts of inspiration, both continue to amaze us from their beginning until today, and both are world wide.
best show ever lmao thats a questionable comment
I'll give you best "reality"... And it's the longest running reality show.
I’ve never seen an interviewer be praised so much in the comment section.
Me either and it's creepy. Who cares, I tuned in to hear what Jeff had to say. I don't find the interviewer terribly engaging either.
Sean Evans from Hot Ones is another one. People always talk about how good of a interviewer he is
It’s because he’s a famous actor. He’s really popular in the supernatural fandom
@Alexander Metzler What a spiteful little thing you are. I don't find him attractive, not manly enough, not rugged enough, looks too pretty boy for me but this woman likes real men who are tough and strong. THAT to me is hot but since we are all different its okay..no need to cut people down if they don't know who the interviewer is either or find him just okay in the looks department. Drink a niceness shake or something Alexander because it's you who is coming off as socially incapable.
To be fair, I came down here to either praise him or find a comment praising him that I could like. Just seems like everyone else had the same idea. Conclusion: He's a good interviewer.
I can't imagine Survivor without Jeff Probst. I love him most at tribal. His questions are so perceptive and he has a way of pulling emotions out of people, it's always fascinating to watch. He's always been good, but over the years, he's gotten even better at what he does. Here's to another 40 seasons!!!
That's what I thought, and I went in to watching Australian Survivor expecting the host to be terrible as no one could ever match Jeff, but Jonathan LaPaglia is just as good. He could easily take over the American one and be as popular.
he loves pushing the players he’ll add his two sense when the players don’t even want it i loveee it
Well he gets to see everything happening on the camps and basically knows exactly what to say from what he sees
Mitch Stokes
I watched Australian Survivor & though Jonathan LaPaglia is good, he’s not on the same level as Probst. Australian Survivor doesn’t feel like Survivor USA, because it doesn’t have Jeff Probst. Well that & AU’s way over dramatized background music.
Yeah can’t forget abt his amazing comebacks haha
Give this interviewer a raise .
Matt Cohen is a wonderful actor as well!
I was going to say the complete opposite
@@lutz070707 if this guy is bad to you I do not want to know what you think is good
Jeff's dimples are everything
SHEER HOME STAGING do you mean his Botox?😂
I thoughy they looked so unreal . Like they don't disappear at any point. But looks cool all the same😂😂
He’s had them like that since the beginning too
His eyebrows dont move. So kuch botox
If Jeff retires this interviewer is my vote for next host.
Pretty sure Boston Rob has that job sewn up.
Boston Rob would take over, though I don’t think it would keep its ratings. It would be as if Olivia Benson left SVU it just wouldn’t be the same
Hiiiiii I ammm baaaston Raaaaab (say it in a Boston rob accent and imagine listening to it day in day out)
i honestly can't imagine the show without jeff probst himself hosting.
Jade Tea Try Australian Survivor, JLP is very entertaining
Jeff is such a good host, it’s hard to match him in an interview. But this guy does an immaculate job of matching the same energy & linguistics as Jeff in this interview. Great job! 👏
He's a fake. Egomaniac who has others like yourself fooled. He used to be a great host, but then he became an executive producer and since then not a fan.
no
@@UnknownUnknown-tu3be there's been no change in his hosting skills. He's great!
He’s a terrible host, I love survivor but Jeff thinks he’s the coach constantly saying “pick it up guys” like you’re the host it’s not your job to coach the players
@@jacksonlowe3993 He's doing his job in that regard as well. He's the host and as the job of the host you need to show the people at home and the people playing the game that it's not just a game, it's a journey. The producers and fans want to see people push themselves, hell maybe even the contestants themselves want it too because that's what they signed up for. He just wants people who signed up for the show to actually do what they wanted to do, if that takes a little bit of pushing then that's what he has to do.
Survivor is probably the only reality show that still manages to stay relevant till date without even trying to stay relevant.,that's how good this show is. I love you survivor.
Not gonna lie, Russell Hantz gave the show new life with his game tactics, and changed the gave FOREVER....
@@choosey87 agree 100%
Not to mention it doesn’t seem fake with drama placed by producers.
@@choosey87 my favorite survivor of all time. Changed the game single handedly by finding those idols without clues
@@xJayhawkFANx My favorite survivor of all time too ☺️
Jeff Probst is the best host on TV. He gets curveballs thrown at him constantly on Survivor and still always seems to have something poignant or pertinent to say.
Looking at this interview there’s no way you would tell me Jeff Probst is 58 and is still this enthusiastic. Incredible
Can't believe he is 58
maybe its the plastic surgery
@@pinkmonkeybird2206 Or Botox?
@@isaakberghe837 yeah but hes making that face
Omg he’s 58? I still thought he was in his late 40s or very early 50s lol
I could watch Jeff talk about survivor all day. He looks like a kid at Christmas!
He reveals his favorite moments at 8:20
I can guess a few of them: Snakes and rats speech, Jonny Fairplay's grandma, Ghost Island tie, Parvati idol play in HvV.
Tommy McPhee thank you!!
Why would you want to skip Jeff Probst?
Dadrummerdude tbh I just wanted to hear his favorite moment nothing against him.
Cowboy B that’s fair enough partner
Great job whoever was the interviewer. I’ve been watching a lot of these interviews with Jeff for the 40th season with most people asking the same questions with similar responses. He managed to ask the questions in new ways and I think get deeper answers from Probst.
His name is Matt Cohen. He played Griffon Monroe on General Hospital for a few years and also done some other work. He's fantastic, isn't he?
Matt Cohen is great- was many and Multiple characters on Supernatural!
He would make a good Survivor host replacing Jeff.
he also was a character in South of Nowhere!
Jeff REALLY liked this interviewer.
I am 77 years old and I have never missed any shows. Always look for Wednesday to come around so I can watch Survivor.
My heart when he said he saw his past 20 years in them 🥺
I've been watching from season 2. My son has been watching since he was 3. He would have his own competitions at summer camp, family gatherings, and with action figures in the bathtub.
He's 13 now. He has researched so much he knows everything there is to know. He can tell you almost every cast member ever! He wants to play! Stay on long enough to give him a chance. It's his biggest dream!
Awh. That's amazing .
I hope he gets to play.
Hope to be watching him soon!
Tammy M I wanna play too! I’m 12, turning 13. That would be crazy if I played with him lol
I’m 13 too, hopefully I get to play in the same season with him!😂
The great thing about probst is that he's there everyday with them... Throughout the whole challenge. He endures the heat and rain and throws jabs during challenges and tribal. The way he talks with them gets the contestants to really open up. I also watch big brother and amazing race and Phil only interacts with them is when they reach the mat. Julie interacts from the air condition studio and only comes face to face with them before they enter or when they're evicted. I truly think jeff is the best host ever!
Soooo true!!
My most memorable moment is the lie that Johnny fairplay told about him having a dead grand mother just to win that challenge
Yes that was like completely a survivor all star, never forget moment. I don't think anyone that's watched the show has ever forgotten that and dang it was just crazy and my dad and I have watched it since it started. He missed the first season but he watched it a few years later but he had always loved it and we watch it every week and he's got my kids living it and it's just a special thing we have always bonded over for the past 20 years and now my kids LOVE the challenges and they're just locked in to watch them and make their own little challenges here and there. To me it's truly a good family show where you can pull for different alliances but still have fun watching the show with family. Just awesome.
That's the first one that came to my mind. Epic! 😆😆😆
i was guessing jeff's answers beforehand and i had that moment, adam's reveal at the reunion show that his mom passed away, and then rob & amber's proposal
and the reunion show where his grandmother was there! 😂
He didn’t do it to win the challenge. He did it to garner sympathy
I'm glad Jeff is not sick of it. I don't want him to retire. He's the best. I love how tough but fair he can be sometimes.
From my perspective, Jeff's love for the show, when he gets automatically excited talking about it, explains the most, why there's something about Survivor, that WE ALL love. Even my girlfriend, who's not much into the reality shows, loved watching it shen I showed her my favorite season for the first time. I'm from Europe, unfortunatelly for me, I'll never get the chance to play, but I love just imagining it. Hanging on the beach, play the game with totally random people... Just thinking about it is amazing.
Okay so who is your favorite player of all time
@@morgan1740 You wouldnt probably guessed it but Tyson Apostol😀
@@morgan1740 What's yours. I haven't been in survivor conversation in a loong time. Bring it on.😂
@@martinmonroe7082 Well, since they didn't continue the conversation, i will. My favourite player is tony vlachos. Loved his gameplay and he was part of the first season i ever watched in survivor, cagayan which is also my favourite
This interviewer is literally the best. Like he knows his stuff
Jeff Probst gets it! He understands why we love this show. He loves this show. Hardcore fans of ANY show have never had a better host. Thanks for loving this show, Jeff.
1:40 is probably the best shot I've ever seen on this show. I don't see the harness. Is there one under his shirt? He doesn't flinch when the pilot banks right. omg
Literally saw the episode w that shot last night and was laughing so hard in amusement, hes always in the funniest/craziest places when hes introing a season always expressing Alpha energy lol
Started watching survivor a month ago and I'm hooked for life. Can't believe I never saw the show until now.
You can watch every season from the first season on Paramount plus, that’s what I’m doing.
Also you can watch on hulu!
yeah I also lost my god damn mind watching like, I don't know how many seasons of survivor in COVID lmao
Jeff is so well spoken and was such a massive part of my childhood! What a guy!
We need a celebrity survivor season. But if one wins they don’t get money they get to pick a charity to donate the million dollars to.
I feel like with this pandemic, it'll be a lot more realistic that celebrities could get that time off... here's hoping it happens
That would be awesome. So long as they play just like others, no special treatment. I imagine many celebrities wouldn’t accept. They are brands, not people. Going on this show would damage the brand.
Imagine Tom Hanks on Survivor!
@@dylanstewart3830 I remember him giving an interview where he told the TV show host that he filmed _Cast Away_ around the same time as _Survivor_ S1 filmed. It was amusing how he joked about it.
This is literally the best interview and interviewer I have ever seen
When Jeff says "it's what I do! It's my job!" It sounded like he was so giddy, I love it.
Jeff Probst has been the best host for survivor since day one. Been watching survivor since 2000, since I was a baby. It would be incredible if Jeff actually plays on survivor
I don’t think you really
Understand the show or watched enough if you think that would ever work... jeff would get voted off first lol
@@idkman09 that was just a suggestion and of course I know survivor well I’m not stupid I’ve watched every season
The biggest showmance from the show is from Jeff to Ozzy. Man, that dude LOVES Ozzy.
Google what Ozzy has been up to these days 🙈🙉🙊
I’ve watched Survivor since its inception. I was 30 at the time and just excited for something so incredibly new and uncharted. No matter the outcome of some of the seasons it’s been my favorite reality show forever! Winners at War is the game 40 seasons in the making. The amount of stress I find myself in watching all these amazing winners is incredible. I have a feeling this season is going to be the absolute best and a true game changer going forward. Seeing winners go at each other for $2,000,000 is both awesome and inevitably a bloodbath. Jeff Probst is Survivor. There will always be haters out there and people that feel wronged for not being able to come back (cough cough, Richard Hatch) but the essence of Survivor remains: Outwit, Outplay, Outlast!
I like Jeff but Hatch isn’t wrong. Production threw him under the bus because they didn’t want to deal with the controversy, and everyone knows Sue is a psycho.
9R Sue is a psycho but Hatch really messed with her head by not backing his naked body down when she was trying to get by. He kinds fed into her “fear” of the fat naked gay guy brushing up against her. She is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs but he’s no saint either.
Same! Been a fan from the very start when my children were small. They watched it with me and are now massive fans. Now they are adults living their own lives. But, still message me every week to talk about the episodes, blindsides and updates.
My mom and I have watched every season together since I was 8 years old
That's so sweet.❣
I don't think i have seen anyone love their job as much as Jeff Probst loves his
I've watched so many interviews from so many celebrities but this is one of the most genuine conversations I've seen between to people in an interview format. It doesn't seem forced and the interviewer seems genuinely invested in Jeff's answers instead of pretending to be engaged because they got paid to ask the questions. Great job.
Survivor can never end, NEVER
The interviewer is gorgeous
The interviewer looks like the perfect Jonas brother.
Wow he does not age!! I love him & Survivor so much!!!!
Jeff is so energized and it’s genuine especially compared to other show hosts and he is such an asset to the show whereas other show hosts can be replaced but I genuinely couldn’t watch survivor without him. He’s so passionate about his job he isn’t just doing it for money or anything, and I could never phrase this well but he is such an irreplaceable host and he’s real.
I KNOWWW
Jeff is the absolute best. Survivor still rocks after 40 seasons.
Great interview! This guy knows how to ask questions. Well done!
I feel compelled to comment on the interviewer. This was such a good interview because the ET guy was so dialed in a prepared for the interview. He and Jeff just fed off of each other’s passion for the show. It was so natural, unscripted and effortless. Great job.
Damn... the interviewer is amazing. His questions are incredible and the way Jeff opens up to him 👍 Give this guy a raise!
The first time my sister mentioned Survivor and the way they vote, get people out if they are not good enough to win challenges and towards the end when they are too good for you. I said what a show? I am confused. Somehow I started watching iy one time and that was probably 20 years ago and I am still watching and anticipating. Jeff is an excellent host, cannot imagine Survivor without him. Carry on Jeff, we are all for you. cheers
Best interviewer ever. Wow. He lets the guest speak, researched and asked good questions, uses vocabulary that really paints a scene. 🙌🏻
This was such a GOOD interview!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The interviewer really deserves to be praised!! It’s rare to watch amazing interviewers like him. 😁
Season 40 was the best yet. I couldn't imagine survivor without Jeff, he's half the reason the show is so great. Looking forward to more.
Survivor is the best!! And Jeff Probst is perfect to lead them. If Jeff ever quits doing this, I won't watch it. I love his enthusiasm for Survivor, and nobody could ever replace him.
I feel like Jeff is the true essence of Survivor. His voice alone is Survivor. I grew up watching this show and Survivor isn't Survivor without Jeff 😊👌
This interviewer is great! Favorite out of all ET’s staff
My love from Greece, durning the lockdowns I watched all 40 seasons, love all of you that make it possible 🧡 waiting next seasons...😍
This season is awesome! I finally applied after soo many years of being able to... I'm sure I wont be picked but I'm gunna apply every season from now on.
Good luck!!!
Good luck!
Hope you’re still applying!
This interviewer is far and away the best ET interviewer I've ever seen.
I watched the first season when my kids were mere toddlers. Then I never watched again. Then when my kids were teenagers in high school they became obsessed with it and watched all the older seasons on Hulu and the new ones and got me into it again. Now they’re about to graduate college and we have this amazing season.
anyone else wanna see jeff in a season? lowkey he's probably a master at all the strategies by watching them play out for so long.
Jeff Probst has magical dimples.
The man the myth the legend Jeff Probst!
What an amazing man. He makes that job look so easy and yet it's an incredibly difficult thing to do. I can't imagine for a second Survivor without Jeff Probst.
Jeff has got the deepest dimples on the planet. 🤩🤩🤩
Best interview of Jeff Probst so far! Summarizes all his love for the show and what we can take out from it.. Great props also to this interviewer!
My family has always watched survivor. The 2 days before my papa passed he was incoherent and stayed in bed all day. But he got up to watch survivor that day. I'll never forget that. We would always go over to their house on survivor night and have dinner for years and he was sure he wasnt going to miss his last episode...
this interviewer is absolutely spectacular
We need to start getting 3 seasons a year
Zain Picanti or at least two hours an episode and two seasons a year
CCStars nah, in my home country they did a local version with two hours episodes and it is so excruciating to watch and filled with fluff, it completely changed the concept of the show.
Chapter lengths in the U.S version with Probst are tight and tailored exactly as they should be, believe you me 👌
wb one sunday episode and one wednesday episode e
One of the best interviews I have had the pleasure of watching . Praise goes to the interviewer as well as the guest. Both of them possessed a great spirit and energy and that reflected in the questions and answers. I have never commented anything like this before but really felt the need to on this one.
I have never missed an episode of survivor in 20 years I watched every episode of 40 seasons love the show
i am completely taken aback by how GOOD this interview conversation actually is. it's like i was blindsided with quality! the interview is amazing at his job. he needs to be doing bigger and better things. i think America might need him right now. i wish i was kidding.
It’s amazing to me how this show has affected people. As much as I’ve enjoyed each new season, I really think the changes in Jeff are even more impressive. We all should have the opportunity to deepen our own life by looking into, understanding, and empathizing with the challenges of others. We should die feeling very fulfilled by the experiences we’ve seen, heard, and felt from others. Breeds humility for sure. 😊💕💐
I have been watching it for 20 years.. I love this show. Congratulations Tony! I love Boston Rob and Amber's love story.
The age difference that Jeff talks about is another reminder that we are souls in physical bodies and that love in any form has no age or time and that is why people can be attracted to one another regardless of age. Thanks, Jeff, for your enthusiasm for every season of Survivor. As the old saying goes, "It was meant to be" and if ever that was true, it is when you were hired to host Survivor! Congratulations, Jeff.
This guy always gonna be remember as the Godfather of Survivor...his commitment, persistence and spiritual courage were unbelievable...
Ran into Jeff out in the wild last week. Awesome guy.
This job has kept him young, as someone who loves what they do, I feel his sincerity. He truly loves what he does and I completely agree, as a viewer of all seasons, he still loves it just as much as he did the first day. Minus the incidents where contestants have abused/manipulated the game.... Survivor Auction.. Luxury item... Survivor Quiz Show... Dang I miss those, especially the auction.
Omgosh I love the part about discussing with family what you would do in a sitch. Growing up watching survivor with 6 siblings, we all had a take and my dad was such a fan. We always said he would be so good on the show but he passed 2 years ago
Wow, really nicely done with this interview! Such thoughtful questions and honest responses! You can see the fire of Survivor in Jeff's eyes.
I’ve been watching since I was seven years old, and even though I think the show itself hasn’t aged well, Jeff will always be the #1 host of any television show
He's such a good host! He's so funny and sassy.
This is without a doubt one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Nobody's pulling for spoilers, nobody's trying to get a big scoop its just an honest real talk.
This is great! Answers so many questions! Can't wait to see the new one!
Love Survivor!!!! With no new TV right now, we are going back via Netflix and watching old seasons....again! 😊 Don’t leave Jeff-it wouldn’t be the same without you!
love the energy of the interview!
I love how passionate he is about it!
Jeff thanks for the best show in history. I’ve been a huge fan for 20 years since season one and survivor remains my all-time favorite show. Ive Seen every episode. I work a very stressful job and I always look forward to being able to relax and enjoy the exciting game play on each episode. Season 40 was amazing! Tony’s spy nest was hysterical. He had me laughing
through the whole show. He has grown in his gameplay and I was thrilled to see him win. Thanks Buddy!
Working in Survivor Palau season 10 was amazing. This man had the most positive vibe going on. Rain or shine he had an amazing attitude.
Jeff is so enviable. Such a great guy living his best life.
Great interview! Love hearing Probst talk Survivor. I miss the longer Reunions where he actually asks questions of the contestants.
It's amazing how Jeff keep answering the same godamn questions over and over and over again but keeps pretending to be enthusiastic and excited about answering these questions lol .. show biz is hard !
The Higher Space Are you talking about this interview? And I doubt he’s faking his enthusiasm....
1. *First day of Survivor*
2. *Rob marrying Amber*
3. *Season 40 Premiere*
You’re a good guesser
he lying, he was seething with jealousy when Rob married Amber
Bruh
ElectrikkPaperClipxx he’s married lol
I thought the Jonny fairplays grandma dying joke would be at least 2nd!!
I have been watching survivor the whole 20 years never missed an episode it was so awesome to watch every evening with my husband that was our show together. Hopefully soon they'll be back on cuz I sure do miss it and I love all the cast members and Jeff of course!
I loveeee Survivor! Been watching since I was a little kid from season 1. Jeff has done such a good job over the years.
This is a great interview!! The Interviewer really connects and Jeff is an incredible interviewee and also the topic of Survivor is almost my favourite topic!
Love this guy.... his willingness to learn in difficult situations is admirable
Thank you. Great interview.
ET! Keep this interviewer around!! Such thought-provoking questions and language.
Been watching this since elementary years 1990s., still the best show and best host Jeff ! 👍👍❤️💛💙
Loved his humor on first episode of season 35! One of three boats went in the wrong direction! “They are going to a different island...”. Lol then... “they are not sure what show they are on! “. Lol. I just laughed and laughed!!!
My favorite moment will always be the “snakes and rats” speech at the conclusion of season one.
I will always love the final tribal counsel of 'Survivor All Stars.' Those ones were so bitter, it made Sue Hawke's speech from season 1 seem tame.
This show makes my life🤗🤗I cant even explain it - wish I could sit down with people who have the same love and watch together🤗
I heard Probst was done with Survivor after season 12. He wanted the show to end. Here we are 14 years later and it sounds like he’s madly in love with this epic game!
