“Survivor Season 50 Episode 7: Tonight’s Air Time and Remaining Contestants”

Survivor Season 50 moves into the merge and begins forming a jury. Episode 7 airs Wednesday, April 8, at 7 p.m. Central. The episode will run 90 minutes on CBS.

Episode 7 preview

Expect raw emotion and social fallout as the merged cast reconvenes. The episode is titled “This is Not How I Play Survivor.”

A confrontation is brewing between Dee Valladares and Tiffany Ervin. Jonathan Young faces backlash for voting against his former alliance last week.

One player will be sent on a journey. That person can earn an in-game advantage.

The 14 remaining contestants will split into two teams for a combined immunity and reward challenge. One person wins the immunity necklace. The episode ends with a single tribal council.

Returns from Exile Island and known advantages

Ozzy Lusth and Rizo Velovic return to camp after missing the previous day’s action. Lusth had found an advantage that protected him and chose Velovic to join him.

Cirie Fields, Lusth and Velovic have formed close ties. Cirie holds an extra vote. Both Ozzy and Rizo possess immunity idols received through the Billie Eilish Boomerang twist.

Tonight’s air time is 7 p.m. Central on CBS. The episode also streams live via Paramount+ with a Premium plan.

Context on recent exits

Kamilla was blindsided and lost in a 3-2 vote. She previously finished fourth in season 48.

Genevieve found two idols but could not use them. She attempted Shot in the Dark before being eliminated.

Colby returned for a fourth season. He was unanimously voted out and had battled a foot infection.

Milwaukee event and Slaying Across America Tour

Survivor 46 finalist Ben Katzman joined Benjamin “Coach” Wade for a Milwaukee watch party and concert. The event took place on March 11.

Coach Wade discussed his return to Survivor, now competing for a fourth time. Wade has reached the jury phase every time he played.

The duo is headlining the Slaying Across America Tour. Jerri Manthey appeared at the Milwaukee event. Andrea Boehlke hosted the show in her home state of Wisconsin.

The tour includes a Los Angeles stop on April 8.
