It’s getting personal on season 27 of CBS’ Survivor. This time around returning players will be pitted against their loved ones. Survivor’s ratings have been declining over the past few years. Will this new twist cause the ratings to rise or will they fall? Time will tell.
Host Jeff Probst is back, as are 10 past contestants — Aras Baskauskas, Candice Cody, Colton Cumbie, Gervase Peterson, Kat Edorsson, Laura Morett, Monica Culpepper, Rupert Boneham, Tina Wesson, and Tyson Apostol.
The higher a show’s ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better its chances for survival. New ratings data will be added as it becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
Final season averages: 2.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.64 million total viewers.

Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you still like the Survivor TV series? Do you think they should keep this new format?
Didnt like as much as previous seasons. To much put on tribal and redemption island challenges instead of social game around camp. Very boring this season and jeff made it so predictable due to tribal concuils. He seemed ti be leading thethoutcome everytime. Pls go back to orginal so we dont feel like its rigged. Luv survivor would hate to see it end. Need new blood not same ole castaways pls u can always do another show with returning survivors. Thankd
A fan from the beginning..however, not watching this season…so very tired of returning players and then to have them with their family members enough already…nothing new there…already seen these players sometimes 4 times…unless Survivor gets back to it’s original concept of ALL NEW PLAYERS…they will lose me and my family entirely..Too bad for such a good show that they are too lazy to get new players using retreads over and over……particularly with so many trying to get on…we love trying to size up how a new player will react to the elements the people and the game…and then Survivor casting… Read more »
I prefer the original format. I do like the new games. Perhaps throwing in secret partners. Each person has a secret partner on the other team and they rhing they are the only ines with that advantage
