Survivor: Nicaragua debuts Wednesday at 8pm on CBS, but you can get your very first taste of the new season right here, right now! Click on the video player below to see the season premiere opening as the contestants are marooned on the beaches of Nicaragua. They think they’ve been split into tribes and are already making impressions of people they believe are their tribemates. Little do they realize they will be re-divided by age later. (Sneaky!) More important, see if you can figure out how the heck Jeff Probst got himself on top of that huge rock! Speaking of the host with the most, after you’re done watching that, stay tuned for a follow-up behind-the-scenes clip as Probst reveals his favorite marooning ever out of all 21 seasons. Will it be the epic brawl of Heroes vs Villains, the send-them-overboard sweetness of Pearl Islands, the race through the rain of Fans vs. Favorites? Keep watching to see for yourself, then tell us what your favorite opening is and what you think of the new cast. And for all the Survivor scoop, follow me on Tiwtter@EWDaltonRoss.









soooooo excited!!!
OMG, OMG, me too!
The marketing/PR departments should encourage Jeff NOT to say the first season has never been topped, because there’s a lot of truth to it, and it makes the rest of the series seem a little shabby.
I would disagree with that. Just because the first was the best doesn’t mean the others weren’t awesome, too. I know that I’m biased in favor of the show, but to me, even the worst season of Survivor is better than 90% of other ‘popular’ TV shows.
I disagree. I think the best Season was last year. And Russell is the best Survivor ever. Since we had him for two straight seasons it’s going to be hard to get into show without Russell
I agree with Charlie! Any season of Survivor is better than most of the crappy shows on TV. And I did like the “Russell seasons” the best!
Me too! Can’t wait!!
I hope there are a few people on the young tribe who are not completely obnoxious.
Me too. I like Jud, though. He seems like he has a great sense of humor about himself.
Jud seems like the most annoying of them all. Except Shannon. He definitely deserves to be beaten.
Don’t bet the rent.
Looks awesome!
No one cares about this crap.
Then why did you bother visiting this website? I don’t bother paying attention to things that I don’t care about. People like you annoy me! Go away if you don’t care about this stuff.
And yet, you took the time to open the story, and comment on it.
And no one cares about your comment.
Is that Jimmy Johnson ex-NFL coach? Sure looks like him.
sure is
where have you been they have been talking about him for months being on this.
WOOOO! can’t wait!!!!
Where is Dalton’s take on what he saw when he visited and who is going to win? I look forward to that.
Does this mean Dalton’s Survivor Talk starts soon? Please!!!
It’s on Wednesday? What happened to Thursday night? Is this a permanent change – this could screw up my whole schedule
That’s why we have DVRs. You can do this!
Yeah I know. I have other things to do on Wednesday, but I’ll deal with it!!
Go Dalton!! You deliver again. A great behind the scenes interview with Probst! Looking forward to a great season with your superlative reviews.
I said I wouldnt watch Survivor again.lol I can’t wait…..
SURVIVOR TALK. WANT IT. Also! Russell and Parvati as co-hosts. (I am a sadist.)
Great season is on the way!!!
Missyae
This just 2 minute clip was interesting – really looking forward to this season!
I can’t wait for Dalton’s recaps, and more importantly, Chi-Cago’s excellent post-show analysis at 1:13 am. Truly, he is a God among men.
I’m so excited!!! Life is worth living again. I cant wait!!!
