Be prepared for 90 minutes of character development and cantankerous winners, as Survivor: Island of the Idol’s season premiere date has been set.
Amid the chaos, topics of conversation and debate surrounding the fairness of someone playing 12 days ofSurvivorand winning inEdge of Extinction,we glossed over what’s coming next in season 39,Island of the Idols.If you’re unaware, winners Boston Rob and Sandra will serve as island mentors living on bare necessities, giving advice to those that visit them throughout.
We will have to wait for a couple of months before we learn more about the season, including official word on who’s playing and how long the winners will be crucial to the season (and in what ways), but CBS at large has given us the keys to the kingdom when it comes to learning when we will have the chance to check it out.
CBS has officially set theSurvivor: Island of the Idolsseason premiere datefor Wednesday, September 25 at 8 p.m. ET. It will be a 90-minute episode akin to what we saw withDavid vs. Goliath,and just like that season, it will immediately be followed by the 90-minute season finale ofBig Brother 21.The following week will seeSurvivorat 8 p.m.,SEAL Teamat 9 p.m. andS.W.A.T.at 10 p.m., with all times Eastern.
Previously, Jeff Probst mentionedthe wish to produce more 90-minute episodes ofSurvivoron social media duringEdge of Extinction’sairing, as well as wanting to find a way to make the auction work for modern superfans who have broken its mechanics to make it predictable. He tweeted those things during the filming ofIsland of the Idols,so perhaps we’ll see those changes sooner rather than later!
Regardless, we now know when to expect theSurvivor: Island of the Idolspremiere to air, as well as what will follow on Wednesday nights. We’re just 104 days away!
