Survivor: Gabon (Courtesy Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Survivor: Gabon - Earth's Last Eden is the upcoming seventeenth season of the CBS reality television series Survivor. Applications were due on January 24, 2008. Around March 2008, 800 applicants were selected for an interview by CBS. Out of these 800, about 48 semi-finalists were selected to go to Los Angeles sometime during April 2008. From these semi-finalists, 18 contestants were selected to participate in the show between late June and mid-August 2008.

On April 13, 2008 at the annual National Association of Broadcasters's NAB Show, it was announced that the 17th season would be the first to be shot in high definition, using Sony XDCAMs.

Survivor: Gabon will begin filming in late June, and will air in September 2008. It will mark the second season of the series to be filmed in Africa, after Survivor: Africa was filmed seven years prior in Kenya.
