WHAT:          Media Conference Call with SURVIVOR host and executive producer Jeff Probst and executive producer Mark Burnett to discuss upcoming season of SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND

WHEN:           THURSDAY, FEB. 10 (1:00 PM, ET; 10:00 AM, PT)

WHO:             Emmy Award-winning host Jeff Probst and executive producer Mark Burnett answer questions about the new twist and upcoming season of SURVIVOR: REDEMPTION ISLAND, which premieres Wednesday, Feb. 16 at 8:00 PM, ET/PT on the CBS Television Network.  

                        The spring edition of SURVIVOR will feature a new twist when, for the first time, castaways who have been eliminated from the game will have an opportunity to seek redemption and return for a chance to win the million dollar prize.  Each week at Tribal Council when a castaway is voted off, they will be sent to an isolated island called "Redemption Island," where they will live alone in exile.  To stay on Redemption Island, they will need to compete in a duel against the next person eliminated (and then against each subsequent person voted off), with the loser being sent home.  The winner of each duel earns the right to continue fighting for an opportunity to return to the game and the chance to compete for the title of Sole Survivor.
