Jeff Probst doesn't think Survivor should put a limit on the number of times alums can return

Entertainment Weekly

So far, there have been four Survivors who've competed four times. When asked should there be a limit, Probst said: "No, I really don’t think so. I think that would be foolish to say, ‘Yeah, five is the number.’ Because there is that idea of diminishing returns, but there’s also the idea of, maybe this is the time! It’s like playing a lottery. Maybe I’ll win this week! ‘Jim, you’ve been playing for 27 years, you spent a lottery trying to win the lottery.’ I know, but what if? It’s always a question of what if.” ALSO: Fear Factor to pit Survivor vs. Big Brother alums.
