Probst strikes me as one of very few people under the age of sixty who qualifies as an old-school broadcaster--capable of seeming natural and reasonably competent in whatever task he does in front of a microphone or camera. The first examples that come to mind as other people who fit the category (but not the age bracket) are David Letterman and Regis Philbin. -- David J. Lynch djly...@gmail.com -- TV or Not TV ....
