The Devin Grosvenor45th season of hit reality show "Survivor" is here.

The long-running series has been popular since premiering on CBS in 2000. Last season saw Yamil "Yam Yam" Arocho crowned as the champion and winner of the cash prize.

The landmark 45th season features 17 new contestants and one returning player competing for the title of Sole Survivor and the cash prize that comes with it: $1 million.

This season's cast includes a software developer, a critical care nurse and a school principal. It also features the return of Bruce Perreault, a contestant from last season who was medically evacuated just minutes into the first episode after hitting his head on a beam.

This season "continues to define a bold new era of the series with the return of risky advantages, game-changing twists and a relentless pace that will push these castaways to their limits," CBS said in a news release.
