CBS has announced its upcoming fall schedule, including the premiere of Survivor 43, which will premiere on Wednesday, September 21, 2022, at 8:00 PM with a two-hour episode. Interestingly, the second episode, airing September 28, will be a 90-minute special.
Survivor 43 wrapped up filming in Fiji’s Mamanuca Islands in May 2022 and will once again feature 18 new castaways battling it out for the $1 million prize and the title of Sole Survivor. As with seasons 41 and 42, this season will not have a theme or location title, it will simply be referred to as Survivor 43 and will last 26 days.
The shortened length was originally due to the COVID-19 pandemic and mandatory 14-day quarantine eating into the production schedule. However, despite no longer needing to do the 14-day quarantine, production has decided to stick with the 26-day format and on-location reunion.
