A few of the challenges the contestants have faced over the years are: Shot in the Dark, Risk vs Reward and Earn the Merge. Shot in the Dark allowed worried players a chance at protection from the vote, while Risk vs Reward presented competitors with a dilemma to trust the other islanders. Earn the Merge forced the last 12 castaways to split into two teams and compete in a challenge to earn their spot on the merged tribe. And, of course, Jeff Probst is back as the host again. Those wanting to catch this new season of 'Survivor', read on to know the details on how to watch it.

What to expect on 'Survivor' Season 43 Episode 1?
According to host Jeff Probst, Season 43 will keep the players pondering every second of every day. Probst has stated, "Survivor is always about the people. It's the single biggest unknown of the game. Who are my competitors? Are they telling me the truth? Am I reading them correctly? Did I choose the right alliance partners? Am I on the right side of the vote or about to be blindsided?"
Since the premiere will be a two-hour special, fans can expect that two contestants will be eliminated by the end of the episode in the classic ‘Survivor' style. The series has also scrapped the controversial Hourglass and Do or Die twists this season. The show is adhering to strict Covid-19 safety guidelines for all cast and crew members, including host Jeff Probst.
