Survivor 48doesn't premiere on CBS until Wednesday, Feb. 26, but you don't have that long to watch a fewSurvivorwinners and a runner-up in new reality shows that premiere this week.
You can watchParvati Shallow,Boston Rob Mariano, Jeremy Collins,Tony Vlachos, and Carolyn Wiger in new seasons ofThe Traitors, Deal or No Deal Island, and a specialDeal or No Deal Island After Show.These are no mereSurvivorplayers; these areSurvivoricons, some of the most successful players inSurvivorhistory. They're trying their hand at other reality shows.
We highlighted eachSurvivorplayer competing on a new show this winter, what show they'll be on, and when and how you can watch!
Parvati Shallow
Parvati Shallow returns to reality TV after an unsuccessful stint onThe Traitorsseason 2 in 2024. TheSurvivor: Micronesia -- Fans vs. Favoriteswinner will compete inDeal or No Deal Islandseason 2, which premieres on NBC at 8/7 C on Tuesday, Jan. 7. New episodes will air weekly on NBC, but they'll be an hour later in the 9 p.m. ET slot, according to NBC.
Parvati is one of the all-timeSurvivorlegends. She figures to be one of the favorites to winDeal or No Deal Islandseason 2. In her four times onSurvivor,Parvati holds one win and one runner-up finish inSurvivor: Heroes vs. Villains. Parvati last competed onSurvivorinSurvivor: Winners at War(season 40). I know she's on the short list of players that fans would love to see inSurvivor 50,but we'll just have to wait and see if it happens.
Boston Rob Mariano
Boston Rob is back for not one but TWO new reality shows this winter, but he's only competing in one of the shows,The Traitorsseason 3, which premieres on Peacock on Thursday, Jan. 9. New episodes will be released on Peacock every week, so you'll have to tune in weekly to see if Boston Rob is ready for one more epic run after finishing runner-up onDeal or No Deal Islandseason 1. Honestly, Boston Rob probably should have won the first season of that series.
Speaking ofDeal or No Deal Island,Boston Rob's other reality TV gig of the winter is hostingNBC'sDeal or No Deal Island After Show with Boston Robeach week following new episodes ofDeal or No Deal Islandseason 2. It's going to be really interesting to see Boston Rob on the other side, doing his best Jeff Probst impression.The Deal or No Deal Island After Showpremieres on Wednesday, Jan. 8.
There's also plenty of speculation that Boston Rob is the banker inDeal or No Deal Islandseason 2, but that has not been confirmed.
Carolyn Wiger
Carolyn Wiger is returning to the world of reality TV this week. Carolyn is the only non-Survivorwinner to debut on a new reality show this month. As many fans will remember, Carolyn finished runner-up onSurvivor 44to Yam Yam Arocho. She's also the most recentSurvivorplayer to join a new reality series of this bunch.
As you can tell, Carolyn is joining the cast ofThe Traitorsseason 3, along with some pretty big names in the world of reality TV including Tom Sandoval, Chrishell Strause, Wells Adams, Gabby Windey, Bob Harper, and more. Remember to watchThe Traitorsseason 3 on Jan. 9.
Jeremy Collins
I'm super excited to see Jeremy Collins back on reality TV inThe Traitorsseason 3! Jeremy's been away from the game for a while, but he last competed onSurvivor: Winners at War(season 40), along with Parvati, Boston Rob, and Tony Vlachos, who is up next on the list. Jeremy has playedSurvivorthree times, and he won one of the most underrated seasons of the series,Survivor: Cambodia.
Jeremy is as competitive as anyone who has playedLaand I can't wait to see if he brings that same energy toThe Traitorsseason 3, starting Jan. 9. He's also one of the players I'd like to see return forSurvivor 50because he's one of thoseSurvivorplayers who loves and appreciates the game as a fan, but he's not out there to lose. He'd balance out the cast of a superfan-heavy season.
Tony Vlachos
Last but certainly not least, Tony Vlachos is also competing in the new season ofThe Traitorson Peacock. Tony is the player I'm most excited to see on a non-Survivorreality show. He's an enigma, and he's going to absolutely try to take over this game as soon as he possibly can. He's about to do some of the funniest stuff to these unsuspecting reality TV stars, and it's going to be glorious.
There are only two players who have wonSurvivortwice in the history of the series, and Tony is one of them along with Sandra Diaz-Twine, who also competed inThe Traitors in the past.
Tony is another player who seems like a strong contender forSurvivor 50,but so far, we haven't heard of Tony or any of the other players who will be in the running to join the cast. We'll just have to wait and see!
