Being stranded on a deserted island with a bunch of lying and manipulating strangers doesn’t sound like fun to most people.

But Troy Robertson, a 1979 Central Valley High School graduate, can’t wait to go back on the CBS hit show “Survivor” after he was voted off the island in 2012 .

When the show’s two-hour premiere airs on March 8 at 8 p.m. it’s the 500th episode and the beginning of Robertson’s second attempt at winning $1 million.

“Being part of the 500th episode is also a really big deal,” said Robertson, who is known across the world by his nickname, Troyzan. “I’m happy the show remains so popular and I know I have a lot of fans in Spokane”/ Pia Hallenberg , SR. More here.

Question: Do you still watch “Survivor”?
