Survivor 46 is back for yet another season of trials and tribulations with 18 castaways deserted in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.
They will fight to become the sole survivor and win a cash prize of $1 million. Fans won't have to wait long, as the season premiere starts on February 28, Wednesday, on CBS at 8 p.m. EST.
This will be the 14th straight season in which the contestants head to Fiji. Last season was a huge success, as it averaged more than six million viewers per episode, a first since 2014.
Dee Valladares reigned supreme that season, winning the €1 million grand prize. There were changes to the show in Survivor 45, including a new run-time, which will be the case for the 46th series too. The iconic Jeff Probst returns to host the Reality TV series once again.

Host Jeff Probst on what to expect from the 'unusual' cast
Jeff Probst has been hosting Survivor since 2000 and has become an Emmy-Award winning host during that time.
The show's producer gave fans an insight into what type of cast has been assembled, during an interview with Entertainment Weekly:
"The cast of season 46 is a really unusual collection of smart, funny, eclectic humans. You’re going to love so many of them. You’ll feel it in the opening moments of day one when we first meet everyone.
"There is a sense of humor and a sense of fun that is going to make this group really entertaining to watch."
There have been several iconic winners of Survivor in the past that have captivated fans with their performances. The likes of Parvati Shallow (Season 16), Jeremy Collins (Season 31) and Sandra Diaz-Twine (Season 6) come to mind.
Hence, fans could be in for more enthralling drama on the highly acclaimed Reality TV show. There's no doubt that the 18 contestants will be gunning for the $1 million come the finale, which will likely arrive in May.
