Probst appeared at CBS This Morning on Tuesday to discuss the upcoming season of Survivor, titled Survivor: Worlds Apart. However, much of the discussion surrounded the legacy of the show and how it has remained popular after all these years.

"I think, really, the success is the format," Probst said. "That is the star - to take a group of strangers, abandon them, force them to work together and then get rid of each other with $1 million at the end."

Ultimately Survivor is a game that is built on lies and deception, so Probst suggested that those who aren't prepared to do that going into it are setting themselves up for failure.

"It's like playing poker, but it's human poker. So if you walk in going 'I can't lie,' well then you're at a disadvantage because I'm reading the rules and the rules say, 'lie' so I'm going to lie, but we can still be friends," Probst said. "Talk about Pollyanna; what's interesting is almost always at the end of a season the people who got mad at each other end up making up and one of them was smart enough to get the million dollars en route."

He also said that they look for motivations for the people they cast, such as if they want the money most, if they want the experience or if they want to prove something to their parents.

Heading into Survivor: Worlds Apart, the tribes will be split up by socioeconomic status, with one tribe of white collar people, who are used to making the rules, another tribe of blue collar people, who follow or enforce the rules and a third of "no collar" people, free spirits who like to break the rules.

It remains to be seen how good of a season this will be, but the show's loyal fanbase will keep watching no matter what.

Survivor: Worlds Apart is set to premiere Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
