The CBS reality competition returns Wednesday, Sept. 25.
A new season of Survivor is almost here!
The CBS reality competition series returns for its 39th season on Wednesday, Sept. 25, with a new crop of castaways. Twenty newbies will hit the beach on Island of the Idols, where they'll be mentored by two Survivor greats.
The legendary Sandra Diaz-Twine, winner of Survivor: Pearl Islands and Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, and the iconic "Boston Rob" Mariano, winner of Survivor: Redemption Island, will return to the game once more -- but this time, it's to help a new Sole Survivor win the show's million-dollar prize.
