Jeff, Enough With the Mud on ‘Survivor 48′ – We Want To See the Players’ Faces
CBS' Survivor 48’s mud-filled challenges are iconic, but when the players are unrecognizable, it’s time to dial it back and let us see their faces.
Above everything else, Survivor is a story about human triumph. Created by Charlie Parsons, every season of this CBSreality series offers countless new examples of people facing the harshest challenges possible and coming out on top. It's these casts that have made the program so historic. While the show's intense format makes it an inherently fun watch, it's the contestants that have gotten millions of fans invested over more than two decades of airing. I personally resonate with these individuals, watching every moment to see them bring out their inner strength and thrive...now if only I could see their faces.
