for “Survivor 12” will be accepted at www.cbs.com
until Friday. For those that
think the summer is still “throwaway time” for the networks,
“Survivor,” which is one of television’s most popular shows, began as a
summer series in 2000. “Survivor”
was the first network series for producer Mark Burnett, who went on to produce
“The Apprentice,” “The Restaurant,” “The Casino,” and “The
Contender.” Burnett is also
behind the upcoming “Rock Star: INXS” and “The Apprentice: Martha
Stewart.”
The most successful former “Survivor” is Elisabeth Filarski Hasselback, who is a co-host of “The View.”
