CBS announced today that it has ordered two more editions of Survivor to be aired during the 2009-10 season. These will mark the 19th and 20th editions of broadcast television’s longest-running reality competition series. Jeff Probst, pictured all drippy to the right, will continue as host.

The series, which premiered in May 2000, has anchored CBS’ Thursday lineup since February 2001.

If you’re interested in applying for the show so you get the chance to meet the awesome Jeff Probst and compete for a million dollars with people who will lie to you, betray you and possibly try to lick you in the face, check out the Survivor application on the CBS website.
