One of the things that made the list was to occasionally show a few shots of our crew to remind the audience of how many people it takes to make this show. And we also decided that from time to time we would make the audience aware of something that is going to happen in the game before the players learn of it, so they can play along or second-guess.

We did that in the premiere with the Beware Advantage. The long-term plan is to bring the fans inside the game a bit more each season, but the key is to do it very judiciously. So it will only be occasionally in Survivor 41, then a bit in Survivor And like everything else we do, this too is an experiment. If it works and people like it, we'll keep on with it, and if it doesn't, we'll lose it. And if you've watched the premiere, hopefully you saw that we're also doing something called Game Within the Game.

GWG is an interactive Survivor training academy designed specifically for young, future Survivor players who dream of being on the island one day.

We love how many kids watch Survivor , and we hope this is a fun way for them to start practicing! I always like to think you are talking to me through the screen, Jeff. But this time, you were actually talking to me through the screen!

Where did this decision to directly address viewers come from, and is it something we're going to continue to see throughout the season?

Another nutty, risky experiment, for sure! But I remember exactly where I was standing when this idea birthed itself. I was in my garage, writing ideas on a whiteboard. I was talking on the phone with [executive producer] Matt Van Wagenen and we were riffing on ideas. This is a really fun process because the stakes are so low, you can consider any idea. I said, "What if the first thing we see in Survivor 41 is me walking through the jungle talking directly to the fans as I tell them how much I've missed them?

Clearly an absurd way to start an adventure show. But Matt's response was instant. It sounds fun! In fact, where else can you talk to the audience?! You keep bouncing back and forth, and the idea starts to take shape. So from that point forward we looked for opportunities to talk directly to the audience. We came up with a long list, and then we scaled it back to just a few times during the season.

We love the idea, but we want it to grow organically from season to season. And we'll gauge our fans' reaction and adjust accordingly. The Shot in the Dark Die, which can only be played once per person, gives contestants a one-in-six shot at safety when they decide to play it.

I dig this wrinkle because it is evenly distributed to everyone and they each have to decide the best time to use it. What was the game mechanic you wanted to achieve with this new twist?

It starts with our overall theme for Survivor 41 , which is "dangerous fun. I'd had an idea in my notes for a few years about a bag that just sits at Tribal, and any time before the vote a player could reach in the bag and hope for an advantage that would immediately shift the game. The general intention was to create more uncertainty at Tribal Council by adding the threat that a seemingly perfect plan could fall apart if someone decides to reach into the bag.
