Survivor: Edge of Extinction (Spring 2019)

Survivor: Edge of Extinction premieres Wednesday at 8 p.m. on CBS. But you don’t have to wait until then to see the start of the show, because we’ve got it for you right here and right now.

Who will have the ultimate honor of being the first contestant to speak on the season? Which newbie describes herself as a “super, mega, ultra fan of the show”? Which two players can be seen literally butting heads? Will Jeff Probst’s infamous “39 days, 18 people, 1 Survivor” line be delivered by land, by sea, or by air? And, most importantly of all, will we have a #OrangeHatAlert?

Those are a lot of questions, but they will all be answered in the video above as we present this sneak peek of the Survivor: Edge of Extinction season premiere. Watch and enjoy, and then click on the SoundCloud below to get the only cast preview from people that actually spoke to the contestants before the game began. Survivors ready… GO!

Watch first 2 minutes of the 'Survivor: Edge of Extinction' premiere

 

If it’s set in Chernobyl, I’ll watch

 

come on in guys

 

"Do you want to know what you're playing for?"

"No, Jeff, we'd rather just stand here and twiddle our thumbs for four hours - OF COURSE WE DO, YOU SIMPLETON!"

 

Sorry ...I clicked on this thinking it was a new release by Frankie Sullivan and whatever sidemen he is calling "Survivor" these days

 

The Island of Dr Moreau.. Yes.... witless constants being hunted by unknown
creatures one by one never seen again..

 

I'm watching...I watch every year...this one looks like a good one and I like the edge of extinction. It will be interesting how this works as more of the cast get voted out. I can't see anyone saying yes I want to choose the road to stop the game. lol. I can't believe they voted Reem out, she had attitude and was a strong worker who could have helped them as a tribe. I think it was the tribes fault for not going to her and telling her to stop moving their stuff, instead they just voted her out, silly.

 

I'm still trying to learn the players' personalities. Reem might not have been the ideal player to vote out, but she wasn't very smart in the short time that they had to pick. I don't have many favorites yet.

 

How will the new twist actually work? If every player that gets voted out has the chance to re-enter the game that island will become as big as the 2 teams competing. At what point will they re-enter the game? Will all those players who choose to play again have to compete against each other in a game...will they do this several times throughout the season or hold it and just do it once? A lot of questions but I like this type twist.

 

not sure but i could see Reem having to compete with the next person that gets voted out to stay in the game.

 

Right, how if at all will this be different to Redemption Island concept. But so far, I liked the start of this season.

 

She was the oldest who told it like it is and worked hard....Millennials do not want to be around that kind of attitude

Glad to see Wentworth bust her ass on that first challenge, the highlight of the first show

 

So true!

 

Crickets. No one watching this season? I understand. I skipped last season.

I'm curious how the second chance island will come into play. Suspect they may be reintroduced with the shuffling next week. At some point they will need to remove a slew of cast members, somehow.
I wonder if the current three will compete where the winner ends up on the odd numbered tribe to even them out.
Or they shuffle into three tribes with all of the original cast, where they vote out two a week until the merge, where two of the three tribes go to tribal each week.
I could see a reintroduction taking heat off of the returning players.

I'm not a millennial and would be happy to not see Reem again.

 

well Wentworth has dodged the David bullet two tribals in a row. i would think her and Joe and Aubrey will be happy to see the tribe shake-up.

 

I haven't read much about this season yet in the press, but Probst is usually out there promoting the season. I think the previews of next week shows that the 3 evicted players come back into the game. And with the preview showing that everyone breaks into 3 groups, I would guess that each of the evicted players goes to one of the new groups.

I haven't put a lot of thought into how fair it is to bring back evicted players, but they've done it before. It doesn't seem like a big twist to me. I'm hoping there's more to it than just coming back this one time. What happens to the next person voted off? It'll have to be similar, but there has to be more to this "twist" than simply coming back. Maybe not, but I hope so.

 

Oh, I'm watching as usual. I just don't have a whole lot to say so far. I will agree, though, that Reem was annoying - to any generation of viewer.

 

Reem, man what a complainer! It’s as if she didn’t know she’s on a show called Survivor. If she comes back in she can’t get re-voted off some enough.

the whole 'edge of extinction' idea seems to be redemption island without the duels.

i have to assume (as does everyone else since they have basically told us nothing) that the 4 may comeback as a 4th tribe.

we'll see.

very lackluster cast so far, other than the college girl, who really seems to be trying.

 

pretty wild episode last night. two tribals plus everything happening on extinction island. almost too much to keep up with! i kind of like Victoria - she's devious

 

well, at least we finally learned a wee little bit about what will happen with the people on the edge of extinction. they will join the others next week, but we have no idea how or under what circumstances this occurs.

and i know it wont happen, but joe deserves to win, he just might be the best survivor player ever.

 

unfortunately, Joe's days are numbered. people who are great at challenges and providing for their tribe are seen as targets and voted out. that's just the way it is now.
it would be fun to see a Survivor that was full of people like him. call it Survivor: Beast Mode

 

Or "Survivor: The Actual Deserving"

 

David is the most useless SOB alive on earth today
