Tsylyst Posted December 19, 2019 The 40th season of Survivor will be 20 returning winners including Sandra, Boston Rob and Amber playing for a $2 million prize. It will feature the return of the Edge of Extinction and the introduction of "fire tokens," which are a new twist of some sort. Season 40 will presumably be in Fiji because...well, CBS is too cheap to scout other locations, I guess.

Magpie Posted January 17, 2020 According to CBS's site, the season premieres Wednesday, Feb. 12 at 8/7c. ETA a description: Quote The Emmy Award-winning series returns for its 40th season, themed "Winners at War." This edition features 20 legendary winners of Survivor who will return to compete against each other. The 20th anniversary edition of the groundbreaking series, unites the most memorable, heroic and celebrated champions from the past two decades in the biggest battle in the show's history, as the series' best strategists of all time fight to earn the title of Sole Survivor again. These returning masterminds will compete in epic challenges, face the return of Edge of Extinction, which gives voted-out players a second shot to win, and tackle a brand new layer of the game with the introduction of fire tokens. Fire tokens will serve as currency on the island and add more complexity to the already intense battle. The new twist allows players to use the tokens to buy advantages to help players stay in the game or get themselves back in the game. Additionally, the winner of this historic season will be awarded $2 million, the largest prize in reality show history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
