Survivor Cagayan Starts Wednesday, February 26, 2014

Survivor starts this week and with so many seasons it’s easy for a new round to sneak up on us so don’t miss the action! If you don’t catch the premiere of Season 28 then you’ll be two episodes behind thanks to CBS doubling up the first round for 2014.

There’s a lot to get caught up on if you’re just getting around to our preseason coverage so let’s run through all the details including Cagayan’s twists, the Survivor 2014 cast, and what Jeff thinks of the castaways for Season 28.

Survivor 2014 Twist:

This season there will be three tribes with six castaways each. They’re split by three basic attributes: Brawn – Aparri, Brains – Luzon, & Beauty – Solana.

As for twists that won’t be part of this season: Redemption Island. That’s right, the arena will not be on Survivor Cagayan. Once you’re voted out you are done and gone or off to Ponderosa. Phew.

Survivor 2014 Cast:

The eighteen castaways are all-new. No returning players. Another “phew.” Here’s the rundown on the Survivor 2014 cast details:
