CBS's hit show "Survivor" will feature a little bit of East Texas when it premieres next month. An East Texas man named Coby Archa is a contestant on the show. Coby is 32-years-old and from Athens, Texas. He works as a hairdresser at "Avant" salon in Tyler. We spoke with Coby today, but he couldn't comment on the show or his experience. Friends of Coby tell us he was always a big fan of the show and wanted to be a contestant. 
"Survivor" premiers February 17th on CBS and takes place on the Pacific island nation of Palau.
