If you are here then, you are a fan of Survivor and you know the current state that Survivor is in with the dwindling fan base. The black cloud of controversy hanging over Survivor is and was not the resent racial division of tribes for this series, but the fact that 16-17 of the 20 contestants were recruited by an ever increasing lazy or less than motivated casting crew which is lead by Lynne Spillman. It is also her belief that she can no longer get the correct diverse mix of contestants through the application process of ten\'s of thousands of applications and has resorted to recruiting by hanging out at the LA bar scene. That is her reasoning for recruiting players.
Survivor was intended to be made up of a cross mix of Americans from all over the USA and not just the wanna be actors from LA like the current series; Survivor: Cook Islands. If you agree that this philosophy of recruiting should be changed or if the casting director needs to be changed in order to have fresh eyes within the casting process of the show, then please fill out this petition. It will be sent to CBS and Mark Burnett by the completion date which will be January 4th, 2006. Let\'s show them what there fan base thinks about recruitment and sign this petition.
I have finalized a formal letter addressed to the casting department and the executive production team at CBS. We are now preparing to transmit this documentation along with the current list of signers to ensure our position on recruitment practices is formally acknowledged.

It is so obvious when they are just cast for their looks instead of their personality. Bring back the old school Survivor feel please!

I used to be such a huge fan but honestly the current contestants are just unbearable. They dont even care about the game they just want camera time. Change the casting team before the show goes down the drain for good.

Bring back real people! I am so sick of seeing the same models and actors every season. Its supposed to be about regular folks surviving on an island not a casting call for mediocre soap stars.

RECRUITS ARE THE WORST. Nobody watches this show for the LA bar scene. Get rid of her.

Spillman has ruined the casting. The newer seasons feel so fake and staged because of who they pick. Get back to basics.

Seriously. Quit going to bars to find people and actually look at the thousands of tapes sent in every year. Its super unfair to the actual fans who try to get on the show.
