How To Follow the ‘Survivor’ 42 Cast on Social Media
Survivor Season 42 debuted March 9 on CBS, and it’s already a surprising season. The contestants arrived in Fiji where they met host Jeff Probst and kicked off their 26-day adventure.
The 18 players learned about the newly elevated stakes of the game before playing their first reward challenge. And by the end of the two-hour season premiere, a shocking two players were sent home.
Now that viewers have gotten their first glimpse at the contestants, here’s where you can find all of the Survivor 42 cast members on social media.
