CBS’s Survivor season 44 castaways include a firefighter, a teacher, a drug counselor, a surgical podiatrist, and a couple of students. There’s even a yogi who’ll be attempting to outwit, outplay and outlast the competition on the upcoming season of the Emmy Award-winning reality series.
Jeff Probst returns to host season 44 which is set to introduce the new castaways on a two-hour premiere airing on Wednesday, March 1, 2023. This season’s castaways will be facing grueling challenges on the islands of Fiji.
CBS’s description of season 44: “These motivated new players must form a society and adapt to their physical and social surroundings, forcing them to decide what is more dangerous: the environment or navigating the complex social game and placing trust in their tribemates. The participants will be divided into three tribes of six and face a faster, more dangerous season from the moment they step on the beach. The moral dilemmas and mysterious new layers of this complex game will push even the strongest competitors to their limits, and the mental and physical challenges require players to constantly adjust their strategies in order to make it another day.
The individuals competing on season 44 are fans from diverse backgrounds who bring fresh perspectives to this new era of the game, with the same ultimate goal: to outwit, outplay and outlast. And in the end, only one will remain to claim the title of Sole Survivor and win the $1 million prize.”
