Survivor SA S6-9 and USA S45
Outwit. Outplay. Outlast. That’s the mantra for the castaways left to fend for themselves on an island in what is arguably the most famous reality show of them all.
Whether you like American seasons of Survivor, or prefer to see South Africans go head to head, there are plenty of seasons to keep you entertained.
Survivor USA S45
Five-time Emmy Award-winning host Jeff Probst once again welcomes 18 new castaways to the idyllic Mamanuca Islands in Fiji for Season 45 of Survivor, the mega-successful grand-daddy of reality competition shows.
Now in its 24th year, the show has won seven Emmys and continues to deliver the drama as contestants are stranded in a remote location with little more than the clothes on their back. They must survive a series of gruelling challenges – and each other – for 26 days in a bid to outwit, outplay, outlast and, ultimately, become the Sole Survivor. And take home a cool $1 million, of course.
This season’s line-up of castaways includes singer-songwriter J. Maya and Season 44 returnee Bruce Perreault.
Survivor South Africa
