It's too bad the Producers see no advantage to filming in HD. It really comes down to being too cheap to doing it in HD. I saw that Ice Road Truckers was filmed in HD and that is pretty rough territory to film in. And they have about 1/5 the viewers on the History Channel as does Survivor on CBS. Ohh well.
