Tweet from Mike Bloom.
.@PlutoTV has just announced that, starting 1/24 at 5:15 ET, it will
begin streaming every episode of #Survivor in chronological order,
leading to the Season 50 premiere. All seasons will also be available
to watch on-demand.
As they put it, "The tribe has spoken. And itrCOs free."

Interesting.-a I guess I wasn't aware the episodes weren't already
readily available for anyone wanting to see them.
For my part, I have watched every episode of every season of the show exactly one time (with the exception of the first season where I watched
the post-merge shows twice), and have no need to watch any episodes
again.-a But I can see where newer viewers could benefit from this.
Course they will have to put up with the shows not being in high-def.
I believe the episodes are available but not on demand. I think Pluto TV
has a Survivor channel similar to Paramount+ where they air one episode
after another but you have no control over what you get to watch. It
sounds like on 1/24 Pluto TV will be restarting the sequence and adding on-demand which Paramount+ also has.
I'm with you. Once is enough for me when it comes to watching past
episodes. I'm not even sure I'll watch the 10 episodes they selected to
air next month to highlight the people playing in S50. I'll watch clips
of past events, but to me it's meaningless to watch whole episodes.
Maybe down the road I will. For now, two seasons of Survivor per year is enough for me.
