At some point, at least you know there are some things that are good and solid and you can rely on. Nobody in their right mind thinks Survivor is about survival ... It's a game show.
He didn't hesitate to lie, ... He's got to run this little game of 'I'm good enough to keep around, I'm not so good that I can beat you. And no my name is not Hogeboom, it's Hawkins.'
I feel good about the work I do on Survivor and am proud of my contribution.
People are wondering when it's going to stop, where it's going to stop.
You go into any Chili's during the month of September and simply color a pepper for $1. It doesn't sound like a lot, but every dollar helps the children who depend upon the life-saving research and care provided by St. Jude.
I was thinking about retiring and spending my time traveling to exotic locations around the world, meeting new and interesting people. Then I realized, uh, wait a second, I'm already doing that with 'Survivor' and getting paid for it, as well.
You'll see many people on their back, on their knees, throwing up, eyes rolling back.
When it's raining, there's no cover. You just have to curl up into a ball.
Most of the time there's just one associate producer who's also acting as a camera operator. At certain times, we'll send a cameraman and an audio person. But even in those cases, there is zero interaction, unless the producer decides to interview the castaway about what's going on. You ask anybody who's spent a night on Exile Island and I think they'll tell you that they felt very much alone.
I finally met someone who could teach me about love.
We sit around and brainstorm all the time, even in our off period, ... We're always asking: What if? What If? What if?
The notion of Exile Island was to remove someone socially as well as physically from the game. But there's simply not enough time, and you would see the same thing over and over: People hungry, sitting in the rain and trying to figure out how many more hours until they can go back to their beach.
It was a lot of fun because we never had anyone on the show with such a lie to tell and tell it so well.
It was a doozy. People were on their knees, on their backs, throwing up and having their eyes rolling back in their heads.
