Survivor has been renewed for two more seasons by CBS.
The Tiffany Network announced today (December 12) that seasons 29 and 30 will be produced for its 2014-2015 schedule, in addition to Jeff Probst staying on as host and as a producer.
Survivor creator Mark Burnett said in a statement that he has been very proud of the programme's evolution over the last 13 years.
"Survivor set the standard for unscripted dramas. We've never gone away from the core values of the game, but we've kept it fresh every season," Burnett commented.
The producer continued: "Survivor in its essence has been a social experiment from day one.
"It's as valid today with young people who weren't old enough to remember what TV was when the show started."
