The 28th season of Survivor will be changing things up, separating the 18 castaways into three tribes based on brawn, brains, and beauty. Season 28 has the 18 competitors foraging for food and competing for supplies in Cagayan, a province in the Philippines.
This season will kick off on February 26, 2014 with a special two-hour premiere on CBS at 8pm ET/PT.
Per CBS: “The groupings of these tribes, each comprised of six castaways, reflect the distinguishing qualities that people bring to the game and test whether there is any truth to the pre-conceived notion that that certain characteristics will help you win the game of Survivor. All castaways will compete to outwit, outplay, outlast, and ultimately be crowned Sole Survivor.
