Emmy voters have re-lit Jeff Probst‘s torch.2024 Emmy nominations: Best prediction scores by our Editors and Users For the first time in 13 years, the “Survivor” ringleader finds himself nominated in the Best Reality Host race at the Emmy Awards. Remember, he won this category four times in a row between 2008 and 2011 (the first four years of the category’s existence), but then he was strangely snubbed thereafter. In the time since, RuPaul Charles (“RuPaul’s Drag Race”) has doubled Probst’s record by winning eight consecutive trophies for hosting. Can Probst now reclaim his time in the Emmy spotlight?
