Mark Burnett Interview:
Holmes: "Survivor" just finished up its 18th season. What do you see in the future for that franchise?
Burnett: On the last Thursday, "Survivor" beat "CSI." "Survivor" is untouchable on Thursdays at eight.
Everything that's thrown at it, they don't come close. If a show stays on, it stays on. "America's Most Wanted"
has been on for 20 years, there's no reason "Survivor" won't be on for 20 years.
Holmes: Any dream locations you'd like to see the show tackle?
Burnett: Papau New Guinea, there's a tropical island in Japan I've been looking at. I'd like to do "Survivor" in Vietnam.
The world is so great, there's so much out there. And, I'm really still having a great time making it.
