The series that kicked off the modern reality TV era marks its 10th anniversary this summer, with its 20th edition scheduled to premiere early next year. And that means we can expect plenty of hype from the marketing and PR gurus over at CBS
Source & More: thewrap.comWe called the Eye about this a few weeks ago, but the network today finally confirmed that it's planning a major "Survivor" reunion/anniversary bash as the evening event for its portion of the semiannual TV Critics Assn. press tour next month.
Scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 9, the party is expected to feature all 20 cast members from the upcoming all-star edition of the show (CBS has never officially confirmed the format and still won't, even though it's been widely reported cycle 20 will be a veterans' edition).
CBS hasn't held a winter press tour party in a few years. And it's been even longer since the network threw a big bash for "Survivor" (in the early days of the show, every finale merited a most awesome post-show throwdown.)
