CBS’s “Survivor” is back for Season 44 and the season is supposedly bringing showmances back to the series!
In an interview with TVLINE, host Jeff Probst let fans know that they can expect to see a Showmance form this season.
He shared:
“Survivor 44 has a showmance, our first showmance in a very long time. I won’t say anything other than if it lasted, it would make me very happy.”
The last Survivor showmance was in Season 37 in 2018 when Dan Rengering and Kara Kay had a thing for each other but their relationship ended before the finale. This would be the first showmance in seven seasons and five years. We can’t wait to see more.
Season Plot:
Stranded on the beautiful islands of Fiji, these motivated new players must form a society and adapt to their physical and social surroundings, forcing them to decide what is more dangerous: the environment or navigating the complex social game and placing trust in their tribemates. The participants will be divided into three tribes of six and face a faster, more dangerous season from the moment they step on the beach. The moral dilemmas and mysterious new layers of this complex game will push even the strongest competitors to their limits, and the mental and physical challenges require players to constantly adjust their strategies in order to make it another day.
The individuals competing on season 44 are fans from diverse backgrounds who bring fresh perspectives to this new era of the game, with the same ultimate goal: to outwit, outplay and outlast. And in the end, only one will remain to claim the title of Sole Survivor and win the $1 million prize.
