Survivor Returns to the Night That Launched the Series When Survivor: Nicaragua, Hosted by Emmy Award-Winner Jeff Probst, Moves to Wednesday Nights.
"Young at Heart" - The castaways are shocked to learn that they'll be divided into tribes of older players versus younger players. The older tribe is especially surprised to learn that they'll be teamed with former NFL Coach Jimmy Johnson. Meanwhile, one castaway reveals a personal secret that could affect the entire tribe as they head into their first challenge."
It's not enough to have 20 contestants, a final three, hidden idols and age-restricted tribes. SEG also felt the game needed to be further disfigured by adding some godawful contrived twist called the "Medallion of Power." missyae at Sucks says the first challenge involves getting said medallion.
